Authentic Chinese food that you really won't find elsewhere in the bay. I wanted to find a place with good Sichuan style fried chicken and fried rice and this place did not disappoint. The chicken itself was well seasoned, crispy, fresh oil, great Sichuan peppercorn flavor, and lots of peppers. The fried rice was also great with a good wok hei flavor. I was so surprised that a majority of our dishes came out in under 5 minutes! The place was clean and service very friendly. I'd come back again read more

Great place for authentic Chinese food! My friend and I came here and had the chicken tidu pot because I was craving dry pot, and I absolutely loved it. I was missing some ingredients that were listed and wish it was more customizable but the flavor was on point (especially with the numbing flavor that gives MaLa its signature name). We also had the salted egg chicken wings, I loved how crispy they were. Absolutely the spot to come for late night eats. read more

Amazing Chinese place in Cupertino! High quality and everything was cooked perfectly. Got seated right away on a weekday earlier dinner. Looks like they specialize in cold dishes as well. Ordered via QR code on table and started off with the beef roll. The wrap is on the thicker side but soft and had tasty beef and cilantro inside. The honey walnut shrimp was one of the crispier ones I've had. The sauce has a slight citrus flavor which is different from the traditional ones. A few hours after it was made and it was still crispy! The spices satay beef hotpot came loaded with beef too and bottom. Had a nice satay flavor and was even better with rice. The fish cakes tasted fresh too. Would definitely come back here. Large portions and shareable here. read more

I've come here a handful of times for 5+ years and generally check in for their monthly specials. Parking is pretty full due to the other stores in the area. There was no line for us to be seated. I was able to flag down a server to seat us since they seem to be extremely busy cleaning tables and servicing others. The hotpots are full of ingredients and the broth has always been tasty. Unfortunately, the meats seem to be overcooked. Prices have been going up over the years where only the monthly special is enticing for the value. Servers were friendly and checked in on us, but it took 25 minutes for our food to show up at our table after we ordered. The only consistent experience I've had are the oranges at the end of the meal. They are always amazingly sweet, juicy, and comes off the peel easily. I don't usually enjoy oranges, but I love the ones HomeEat offers! Will be back if in the area, but hope kitchen service will be quicker in the future. read more

Egg yolk chicken wing 4/5 - crispy and good flavor. They were pretty small wings though Fried fish filet 2/5 - these were awful! I don't even think there was any fish in it. All batter and no meat. So disappointing. It tastes old too like they fried it twice. Beef rolls 3/5 - not my favorite beef rolls Overall it's good value and decent Chinese food but not the best read more

I'm really late to review this spot. What do I love about it: consistently tasty food, cheap combo meals, and fast pick up times. Occasionally the portions really differ in service. Sometimes you're loaded up, others it feels like a small meal prep portion of food. But with some combos as low as $11.xx per meal, it's really tough to complain about real food, decent portions, and quick grab and go bites. I've personally never eaten inside the restaurant, but I generally order the lamb combo meal, sesame balls, and the country pork is pretty tasty. I highly suggest any of the monthly specials, and the skillets give you a ton of variety and huge portions EVERY time without fail. read more

I love Home Eat! This is my second visit (first visit was to the Santa Clara location), and it hit just as hard this time around. I stopped by on a Sunday evening, and the restaurant was absolutely packed. The entrance had an adorable CNY display. Even though there were a ton of customers, there was still available seating. The interior is no-frills, with minimal decor. I was impressed by how fast the service was: I ordered, went to the bathroom, and the food was already being served when I returned. The food is consistently delicious, with good portion sizes. Home Eat has a monthly special section, where certain dishes have a discount. The monthly special section is such a great deal: you get a huge portion for an affordable price. I highly recommend the chicken wings. They have several different sauces/flavors. The wings are crispy on the outside and soft on the inside. The chow mein is a classic, with plenty of toppings (chicken and veggies). I tried the special lamb mini hot pot this time around, and it was honestly a skip. The lamb had a strange taste, and most of the ingredients weren't outstanding/worth the price. I'll definitely be visiting again for a quick, delicious, affordable meal! read more

Came here with a few friends and I really enjoyed it! Food: Every dish was a 5 star for me! I liked the honey walnut shrimp in particular. It had a nice crunch. Parking: We came on a weekday so parking was super easy. It's the same plaza as chicha san chen but it's on the other end. Service: They were super nice and quick. read more

Plenty of parking, lots of internal seating and the ordering system is very easy with the typical QR codes. Staffs are a bit overworked as it took some time to get water refills. Rice: $2/bowl, 3/5 Honey walnut shrimp: 4/5, lots of mayo too much for my liking but the flavor was amazing Orange chicken: 3.5/5, very very dry but great flavor read more

The food was pretty good, they have a sauce bar with individually wrapped packets to use. Portions were decent size, definitely enough for some leftovers! The general tsos chicken was very crispy and saucy, definitely recommend the dish! However, the fried crab was pretty underwhelming unfortunately, it was small, had little crab meat inside, and we asked for a nut cracker for the shell, but they did not have one. I'd avoid this dish as it's pricey for what you get. Overall, it's a nice spot that serves hotpot + traditional Chinese dishes, worth checking out if you're in the area! read more

Came in to celebrate a birthday. Food was very good. Freshly made and delicious, especially the sesame chicken. The beef shank wrap continued to be a delight, it was incredible! The combination of meat, veggies and the exterior crispy pancake created such an outstanding tasting effect. The lamb dish had one of the most tender meats I've tasted. The brown sugar sticky rice cake was soft inside and hard outside; with just the right amount of sweetness. Service was ok. They should've been kinder and more grateful. I liked how they have a sign posted on window saying that gratuity is at free will and you don't pay for the wrong dish they send to you. It showed accountability. That's why we keep coming back, for now. read more

Two of us found Home Eat on yelp for being one of the few options that were open later in the area. We had: string beans and egg plant $14.75 combination fried rice $12.75 classic fried chicken wings $13.75 The let down was the chicken wings for me. Not the best sauce and wasn't fried very well. You can get a free drink for an IG story post...it wasn't the best, but their regular water was super tappy. Easy parking in the lot during off-peak hours. read more

*Review on chicken wings* I've had Home Eat's chow mein previously, but what made me really like this place is the chicken wings!! I did not try the beef wrap, but my partner thought it was good and reasonable pricing. The dish is meat forward and there was alot of beef in the roll. I got the classic wings in soy sauce marinade. The wings were so crispy, flavorful, just like korean fried chicken. In fact, these wings are better than some of the chicken places in the area. I wish the wings were bigger, but you can just order more. It's $13 and I found it to be a great price. Home Eat's chicken wings are popular for a reason and they have several dishes that seem appetizing. I saw many in the restaurant try their soups, seemed interesting. I will definitely come back for the wings and try other dishes. read more

Home Eat is always a safe go-to spot for a quick and delicious meal! I don't think they have a "wow" factor to their dishes but I've never had a miss here as everything I've tried have been pretty decent, especially considering the price. Came on a Sunday afternoon for lunch and there was no wait. Tried some new things today: - Salt and pepper fried fish fillet - just okay. I thought the fish fillets would be bigger but there were a few pieces of just the batter. Batter is decent, dish came out crispy. The salt and pepper taste wasn't very strong and there weren't a lot of pieces of onions and peppers on the dish as I'd see other places would have. I love the HK-style salt and pepper taste the most and this fell short. - Yunnan rice noodle with seafood - this was alright but not as good as other yunnan rice noodles I've had. Plenty of shrimp pieces, quail eggs, and super tender chicken which I appreciated. The noodles weren't the smoothest compared to other yunnan noodle places. Broth was ok. - Mapo Tofu - not too spicy, thick, and tingly/numbing as you'd expect. Pretty good. read more

I came here at lunch with my friends, and here is experience: 1. Ambience (4/5): cozy, clean and had a lot of seats. 2. Service: we ordered by ourself by a QR code menu on the table. Staffs were friendly and attentive. 3. We ordered some dishes: - Boneless fried chicken with sweet sauce (5/5): I loved this one, very tasty and yummy. Chicken was perfectly coated with sauces. - Fried rice (5/5): flavorful, but the scramble egg was a little bit salty for me. But it went well with rice and veggies. - Hot pot: I don't remember the name of this one. But I didn't like the way they seasoned the broth, I skipped this one:(. Anyways, my Chinese friend liked this soup. - Rice plate (4/5): tasty but the pork was a little bit oily. I love their broccoli:). Overall, I had a nice experience here. Next time, I would try some new soup until I find out my favorite one:). read more

Home eat is the pinnacle of Chinese excellence X chaotic efficiency. Clearance foods after dark?! Food coming out at BLAZING fast speed?? lol and not to forget the incentivized free drink if you post a review at the table (did not participate btw). Now onto the real matter... the food. Classic wings blew my mind. Genuinely, wing stop could never. These wings are much more refined- none of that thick coating of batter. It's a thin CRISPY, sweet, sticky, and savory wing. Flats ONLY! Spicy beef soup- wonderful! I asked for mild spice and it was perfect. I noticed a nearby table only ordered these hot bowls of noodle soup (it's gotta be THAT good if that's all they came here for) The beef was tender and broth had rich flavor. Express cold bar! If you order online you only get one dish. Order at the bar, and you have the option to do half and half! Prices get marked down after 9pm. I ordered the cucumber salad and pig intestines. both yummy but nothing incredible 8/10 read more

I think me and my partner found our new Chinese spot with this one. The food, the service, everything was perfect. Came in on a Friday night and were sat quickly. Even though they were busy but this location is also huge. I love the QR scan to order because you can really look over the menu before deciding. And you definitely need time to decide with so many yummy options. We tried the spicy beef noodle soup 10/10, spicy wings 10/10, eggplant/green beans 8/10 (little oily for my liking), and shrimp/pork dumplings 9/10. We wanted to try a hot pot dish but didn't want to order more with only 2 people. But definitely next time! Everything came out with good timing, piping hot! Can't wait to come back or try another one of their locations. read more

All the dishes we ordered were oily.. no one came to check on you. Will not be back even though wanted to try based on other reviews.

Was finally able to come back to take the owner up on his offer of the complimentary Mao xue wang after the previous incident. Also ordered the fashion wok on monthly special. Waiter Lean was very nice and hard working, seen him here many times. He understood the situation and commented that he reads the reviews every night after work and recalls reading about my incident. Great to hear that they read and reflect upon customer experiences. The Mao xue wang was a decent sized bowl with a lot of ingredients but the taste was not entirely there. Was a bit bland even though the appearance looked spicy and red. read more

Staff was rude today, 4 PM on Wednesday October 1st. I walked in to order a Small Tray of combination Fried Rice - very friendly person. When my order was ready in about 15 mins, the staff has changed. I asked if they had a box to carry the HOT foil tray of Fried Rice - something they have done in the past. The gentleman said no, and to hold it by the lip of the tray ‍ I repeat, a HOT foil tray of food where the heat transfers into the foil tray. Something to improve on if management reads this. It's a liability waiting to happen - and yes my fingers hurt from the heat. read more

Came here with my friend to catch up and have a quick lunch, the food here is amazing. I love how Home Eat offers such a wide variety of Chinese items- from more Americanized dishes like chow mein and fried chicken to clay pots and spicy noodle dishes, this spot appeals to everyone. The portion sizes are also insane! My friend and I got the chicken wings, veggie chow mein, and hot and sour soup to split amongst the both of us. Chow mein was really oily to be honest, but that was my only gripe. The wings had a good amount of meat on them and were deep fried quite well, the hot and sour soup was also delicious and they did not skimp on any of the bamboo shoots or tofu! The interior is so clean and they also are amazing with their to-go orders. Everything is so authentic and homey. read more

Came back for a second visit, and Home Eat did not disappoint! The flavors are consistently bold and authentic. * Prime Spicy Angus Beef Shank Pot (#9): We got the small size, and it was the perfect centerpiece. The beef shank was incredibly tender and soaked up all the rich, spicy broth. A must-try if you like hearty, slow-cooked flavors. * Hunan Stir-fried Beef (#55): This has quickly become our "standard order." It's just as good as the first time--super tender beef with that addictive Hunan chili kick. It's the ultimate rice killer. * Pork Tripe with Chili Oil (#213): A fantastic cold appetizer. The tripe had a great snappy texture, and the chili oil was fragrant without being overwhelmingly numbing. Still one of my top spots for authentic Hunan cuisine in the area. The consistency is impressive! read more

K how did I just find out about Home Eats? This place is so great. Perfect for Chinese cravings at an awesome price point with tons of variety that actually delivers on taste and quality. Whether you're coming with a friend, a small group, or even a large party, it works and they'll accommodate! Our favorites: - Eggplant - a must!! - Mapo Tofu - the perfect balance of Szechuan numbing spice and real flavor that some other restaurants miss. - Chow Fun - not your typical chow fun with the dark soy sauce, this one's got a kick. - Fried chicken - yes, really good. - Honey walnut shrimp - take my word for it, it's not your typical Panda Express honey walnut shrimp.... it's crispy like a candy exterior, so light and flavorful, you won't miss the mush. - Hot and sour soup - don't even get me started 10/10 I'm sure there's another half of the menu I've yet to explore, but I'd happily order all of these to-go and I'm sad I don't live closer to their multiple locations. For a chain restaurant, I'm genuinely impressed by the quality and consistency. Home Eats has officially earned a spot on my regular rotation haha. Quick service too, what more can you ask for! read more

Delicious, super authentic Chinese food. We went on a weeknight and didn't have to wait long before getting seated. The service was fast. The vibes are pretty nice. We got two dishes and rice: eggplant and green beans, fried pepper and chicken. - Eggplant and green plants are delicious. Very classic dish, execution is very well. A solid 4/5. - Fried chicken and pepper: a solid 4/5. They are not kidding with the spicy-ness! Usually, in restaurants I could handle two pepper signs. But at Home Eat, they really mean the two pepper signs! They are definitely on the spicy side. The dish was quite SPICY! read more

I come here pretty often, mostly for their cold side dishes. It's a pretty spacious and clean restaurant with authentic Chinese dishes and relatively reasonable prices. I saw a promo for their crab dishes for this week so decided to order some take out, which was ready for pickup within 10mins. Food was well packaged, and they also gave a tomato drop soup on the house. There were two types of crabs, we got both - they were good but not great (won't reorder). The saucy one was a bit spicy, and while it was fun to eat them deep fried, the meat overall in both didn't seem too fresh. They used to have yu xiang eggplant, but it was discontinued, so we tried the other saucy eggplant they had (with meat, not with green beans), and it wasn't as satisfying. read more

Chicken wings were amazing! They were not too spicy and it had a good balance of sweet and crispy flavor. The portion size was also good! I thought that the Fashion Wok was a bit plain, but that was kind of expected since the dish is not spicy. The beef was also a little clumped up; I was expecting it to be beef slices. Overall, I would come back to try other dishes. read more

Put in an online order for a family takeout dinner. The online ordering portal and pick up process is super seamless. Here's what we got: - Honey walnut shrimp: SO good! I'm a huge fan of the batter's texture and the overall flavor of this dish. Would recommend this! - String beans & eggplant: A good reliable veg pick; did not disappoint - Salted egg yolk fried chicken wings: This was sooo good! Fav item of this recent order - would highly recommend! The wings are moist, have amazing flavor, and have great texture. Will definitely be getting this again. (I've tried their classic fried chicken wings before and those were also suuuper good). - Tidu shrimp pot (no spicy): I usually eat spicy but I had to adjust it to no spicy this time for my family members. It was still really good - I liked the flavor and the variety of ingredients in this dish (shrimp, fish/shrimp/lobster balls, fish tofu, various crunchy veggies, and peanuts). Will def have it spicy next time! We'll definitely be back~~ read more

Decided to give this restaurant a 2nd try as a family member went there recently and had a good experience. We had the chicken wings, beef roll, chow fun, string beans with eggplant, and honey walnut prawns. I'm glad we tried it again because this was definitely better than my first experience. In terms of the fried foods, the chicken wings and honey walnut prawns were done to perfection. Battered properly and fried nicely. The food came out piping hot and it was simply delicious. The beef roll was larger than I expected. It was packed with delicious, tender beef. The quantity of beef was a pleasant surprise. In my last review I noted that the string beans with eggplant was oily. As you can see in my photo, it wasn't this time! It was tasty and the components were cooked nicely. I didn't have much of the chow fun because I was pretty stuffed but it seemed to lack a bit of flavor when compared with the other dishes. It had a good amount of shrimp and eggs though. On the way out I had a gander at the display case and there seemed to be more interesting things to try. I'll definitely be back again to try! read more

The fried wings were fried to perfection and the sauce is sticky and so delicious. I think they gave us an extra potsticker and these were oozing with extra soup and pan fried. Also a huge fan of their salt pepper fried fish, and we gobbled that right up.
