    5 Flavor Chicken.  SUPER GOOD!
    Daniel A.

    Omg! I'm now obsessed with the five Flavor Chicken! Little bit sweet and tangy. I was worried the sauce would be too sweet, but kit was absolutely perfect! Also the chicken fried rice was outstanding! Very light, and not greasy at all. And the chicken in it was incredibly tender and juicy. Big fan!

    Prawns and veggies

    2nd time ordering takeout from Eric's and had a pretty consistent experience as last time. Food was hot and cooked well. The sesame beef was the best especially paired with the beef fried rice. Chow mein was tender and beef wasn't chewy. Prawns and veggies were our least favorite, they needed more seasoning. Tasted even better the next day!

    Tonight is the second time I've picked up takeout from Eric's and the order was wrong. I ordered Brown rice and hot white rice again. I even confirmed when I picked up my order that I ordered brown rice. This is unacceptable and crummy service.

    Shanghai Chicken

    This is by far my favorite restaurant! The food is always good and the service is always fast. I've been going here for more than 20 years now. They've won a Michelin star and Michelin acknowledgment. Plus award from Yelp, Zagnut, and a bunch of other food rating websites. Everyone I've taken here love this place! Definitely, we're checking out!

    Mongolian beef, General Tso chicken and mixed fried rice.

    I've gone there many times and the food and service is always 5 stars and I'm always happy to bring friends there to eat.

    Lunch specials

    Pretty good Chinese restaurant in the now valley neighborhood. We stopped by Friday for the lunch specials and got the fried fish and eggplant lunch specials. Pretty generous portions and it came with egg flower soup. Service was fast and restaurant is much nicer than a traditional hole in the wall Chinese restaurant, but also $2-$3 more expensive than typical Chinese food.

    My wife and I live in San Mateo County and travel to the City for Chinese food. The restaurant we go to is Eric's and it's Hunan & Mandarin cuisine. I have been going to Eric's for close to 30 years and it's still Fabulous. We had ordered honey walnut prawns, beef asparagus, vegetable fried rice, sweet & sour chicken, pot stickers and egg rolls. The food is made with all fresh ingredients and the taste and flavors are simply to savor. I only like to dine in and don't do take out at Asian restaurants. I'm not one who likes his food to get soggy from the steam in close containers. I assure you. That you will love it's variety of different dishes and it's quaint ambiance.

    Solid Chinese food. It tastes very home made - but definitely on the greasy side. Good for dine in and pickup.

    Does Eric's deliver? If so, on which service(s)?

    They are on Caviar/DoorDash. Not sure about other apps.

    Are there fake meat dishes vegan?

    The "meatless chicken" is a mixture of Seitan (TVP) with tofu and is the best faux chicken you will ever find.

    Decided to try the Happy hour at this Japanese place and was blown away…read more Its a small place, maybe 8 tables tops squeezed into this narrow space but it was fantastic. Gretted when we entered, we slid into one the few open tables. The decor was charming, and we were quickly gretted by our server with menus and water. My sister and I split some appetizer items so we could try various items, and every single dish was a taste sensation. The gyoza was crisp on the outside while packed with a savory meat, drizzled with sauce. The Karaage was tender chicken encased in a light fried pankostyle casing, also drizzled with a sauce, and the flavor, each bite was satisfying without being too filling. The Kabocha Kor, were panko fried pumpkin patties with a tonkatsu style sauce that brought the taste buds to a more earthier place . The Tokoyaki, were tender fried octopus balls in a sauce that I would have been happy to hunker down with a large bowl of and just crush, easily my favorite bite, which is saying something as no bute was bad . We closed with an order of Hotate, which was a grilled scallop skewer. Somewhere between sea and bay scallops in size, they were an awesome cap to the dining experience. With a this, I washed it down with a peach-weizen beer which was the perfect accompaniment to the meal. Every dish was fantastic in flavor, sauces, and texture. On top of all this, the service was excellent, and the happy hour prices very much in reason.

    I went here for dinner around 6:30pm and a line started forming right after we arrived, becoming…read moreabout 10 people deep. We only waited about 10 min. We started off with the Mekyabetsu (Brussels sprouts), Ba-Ra (pork belly), and Kobe (beef). The Brussels sprouts were my fav starter, and the sauce paired so well with it. The Ba-Ra was pretty good, but nothing amazing, and same for the Kobe, which I found to be a bit bland. We also split the Hokkaido Miso ramen. The broth had a great flavor, and the pork chashu was possibly the best I've ever had(!) as it was soooo tender and flavorful, and not very fatty. I did think the cauliflower left room to be desired, and kinda took away from the ramen overall. We finished our meal off with the matcha Panna cotta - this was a great dessert and wasn't too sweet ;) This place definitely seems to be pretty good at a lot of dishes, but not amazing at any single one. The vibe is great, service was great, and prices are a biiiiti steep but not unreasonable.

    super cute small-ish restaurant serving korean dishes and known for galbijjim! we came by to try it…read moreout and i really enjoyed it. it didn't seem too busy on a weekday night and our party of five was able to sit right away. the food also came out quickly once ordered! the only thing is that service could be spotty, as it seemed they didn't have enough staff for the floor when we were there. i didn't mind too much but keep that in mind if you are on a timeline! we tried the galbijjim, which comes with glass noodles, rice cakes, and cheese by default. they also gave us banchan and rice. the galbijjim was saucy and savory with tender meat & lots of cheese. i do think it's less sweet than daeho's version, which can be a plus if you find theirs to be overly sweet! additionally, they include the rice cakes and cheese, which are paid add-ons if you go to daeho. the banchan were better than daeho's in my opinion. their fish cakes were nicely grilled and kimchi tasted great. i only wish they had purple rice as an option! the portion was perfect for five of us so it's a really great value in my opinion. overall a good vibe, great food and banchan, nice portion for galbijjim. service can be slow but they're very kind and helpful.

We ordered the galbi jjim and strawberry watermelon drink which was a decent size, not too sweet, and very refreshing. My partner's spice tolerance is pretty low so we ordered the level one spice. Unfortunately it was still too spicy for him so I double checked to make sure it was only the level one spice and they said yes. About 15 minutes later, they let us know that the food is on the house! Not what we were expecting at all since we really just wanted to enjoy the food, but it was much appreciated. They also said to let them know the next time we come back so that they can do 0.5 spice instead. Overall amazing food and amazing customer service. We are definitely coming back! Just beware if you have a low spice tolerance and let them know when you place your order!!
