Located in a kind of dismal and lengthy strip mall, we found parking in the lot and went inside…read more Everything in this restaurant has been remodeled and it looks a lot better than the outside. We had a number of very good dishes for dinner. Particular, I like their Chinese beef stew over boiled and drained egg noodles. I've been there twice and I will come back again for sure.

It's quite affordable as well. The staff are nice and greet me as soon as I come inside. The mini sesame balls with red bean filling is the perfect sweet treat. They reheat great in the air fryer too.

What happened to their duck...?…read more It used to be hecka good and out go-to spot, but the duck we just got today was dry as heck and the skin wasn't crispy and it's making me question coming back. Seems overcooked or maybe reheated. For $31, this was so disappointing. Hao Kee Kitchen has yummy Peking duck, which costs more ($48) but the meat is so tender and comes with buns.

We've been here a few times and tried a variety of dishes. We really like the clay pots. Both the…read morebeef and pork short ribs were good, but the pork short ribs with Chinese sausage is my favorite. The sauce has a lot of flavor, and their chili oil goes really well with it. The prawns with walnuts were priced well, and the cucumber salad came in a big portion. The calamari wasn't my thing since it was fresh squid instead of the fried version I'm used to, but that's probably on me for not checking. Service has been great every time. The clay pots take about 20 minutes since they're made to order, so it's not super fast, but it's worth the wait. The restaurant is clean, and they let us know that the tea costs extra, which we appreciated. I think the tea helps balance out the saltier dishes. This is becoming one of our regular spots!

I visited Ji Bei Chuan with a friend, and we had their Cold Cut Chicken, Black Fungus with Vinegar,…read moreand Gold Spicy Soup with Fish Slices Rice Noodles. Overall, the place was decorated very well and relaxing. The staff were quick to greet us and take our orders, although ordering is also possible through a QR code. Both the cold cut chicken appetizer and black fungus were tasty, a bit hefty on the sauce but still tasty. The Gold Spicy Soup definitely packs a kick; be ready for a tasty dish with coughs on the side if you're a soup drinker - this soup don't play!

Food is amazing 10/10!! Hole in the wall restaurant best food in the Bay Area. Definitely recommendread more

Very clean, fast service…read more -Beef noodles (sorry I forgot the name lol) 4/5 not as flavorful as the other two dishes but the meat was cooked and seasoned perfectly. -calamari - 5/5 my favorite dish we ordered. Just enough crunch and salt! Seasoning is like typical salt and pepper squid/porkchop dishes. -Hainanese chicken: 4.5/5. I'm more into the Singaporean chicken rice with the sweet dark soy sauce. Dish is supposed to be cold fyi! The ginger scallion oil is perfect. Make sure to order rice because the dinner portion is à la carte We both got Hong Kong style milk tea. 5/5 delicious and strong! It is a sweet drink too fyi The restaurant looks super new and well kept. I can't wait to come back to try more

I am selfish and so happy they came to San Leandro!…read more It's solid, wholesome, and flavorful Pho Ga. Every appetizer is also a hit! I usually get the chicken giblets pho with a side of Thai tea. It's a monthly visit and have yet to be disappointed. Great service and always a quick stop.

3.5 Stars rounded up to 4 stars My wife and daughter gave…read morethis place 3 stars. I gave them 4 stars, 5 stars for my food! Quality/Quantity - My daughter craved Pho so we came to this place. It has been a VERY long time since we ate here. Actually, the previous time was with the previous owners/business. Today we got the following: Fish Ball Noodle Soup with Pho Noodles - Of course my daughter's choice and with NO veggies?!?! This looked so plain... I know I could have made this better at home! My wife shared some of her wontons with my daughter to add to the flavor. See pictures. I am sure this is NOT what my daughter had in mind when she craved Pho. This was much more of a "Chinese" dish rather than Vietnamese. Update - My daughter mentioned that she could not find regular thinly sliced beef pho as an option. And she thought fish balls were beef balls... Wonton Noodle Soup - Also as plain as my daughter's dish. Again, more of a Chinese dish rather than Vietnamese. #24 Fried Pork Chop, Chicken, Egg with Steamed Rice - Fried fresh and perfectly done! My pork chop and chicken were 5 stars! Everything else was just okay. Ambiance - Very small local business. Decent size parking lot, but not enough spaces for this busy mall. We got lucky and got a space fairly close to the restaurant. Not stressed as we planned to shop at Foodnet after lunch. Service - Had to ask for everything. Hard to get their attention as they just hung around the first booth talking and talking and talking. The hardest worker was the runner, probably the only employee that was not family...? Price - $66 + more generous tip than deserved or earned. Owner Comment - Congrats on your success at this location since 2024. And your previous location in Oakland, etc. The previous location was known for their chicken, chicken noodle soup, etc.

Beef Stew Wonton Ho Fun, the wontons were pretty big, the beef stew was a little chewy and broth had no flavor. Bitter Melon with Beef was a major disappointment, take a look at the photo they must of use a half bottle of oil to stir fried it. I don't think I'll be coming back again.

My wife found Vivid Bibim on Yelp. San Leandro often has very high quality Asian restaurants, so…read morewe don't mind the longer drive for a weekend lunch. Vivid is located in a strip mall off Washington St, and looks like a family-run operation with lots of Korean customers. IMHO, Korean cuisine is not only super tasty, but super healthy too and consistent with HHS Secretary Kennedy's diet of high protein, fresh/pickled/fermented veggies, and yes either a fried or boiled egg with hot dishes. Banchan came out first, and was fresh. We loved the bean sprouts and kimchi. Free refills - just ask! Wife got the seafood ramen - nice broth and chewy noodles, but frankly she found chicken meat and not seafood. Maybe a kitchen oversight? The two entrees we got were definitely 5-star worthy. A big, heaping sizzling platter of bulgolgi is a crowd pleaser for sure. Thinly-sliced, juicy, and sweet-savory beefy flavors. I need to eat in moderation due to propensity to develop gout, but my 5yo son loved every bite. Its a bit pricy at $42, but it can feed 2-3 people. Next time we visit, we'll probably try either the BBQ chicken or the Pork Belly. The other amazing dish is the Chicken Dolsot. A huge, sizzling stone bowl of crispy rice and tons of colorful veggies and super juicy chicken meat. A fried egg thrown in for good measure too. I do recommend adding some red Gochujang Sauce for extra flavor burst. Looking forward to coming back for more. After the initial lunch rush passed, the entire kitchen staff came out and ate a meal together which was cool.

Great meal here served by really nice people. Dropped by for lunch on a Saturday afternoon with my…read morehusband and the place only had one other party in it. The waitress was super friendly and seemed to really like us, so her welcoming demeanor set the tone for the rest of the meal. We went with the kimchi stew, spicy rice cake appetizer, and the seafood dolsot. My husband wished the seafood dolsot was crispier, but felt like it hit the sweet spot between hearty and healthy with really good flavor. We loved the kimchi stew, which was the perfect sharable amount for two people or a satisfying dish for one. It was bubbling when it arrived to the table and had a lot of tofu and kimchi. The only dish that kind of disappointed me was the rice cake appetizer. While it was certainly a generous portion for an appetizer, I felt like there could've been way more rice cakes in there, and I didn't care for what I think was some sort of fish patty that were mixed into the dish. I would've much preferred swapping those out for more rice cakes. However, the flavors were delicious and the spice level was potent without being over the top and killing all the flavor of the dish. They have a wide variety of canned Korean drinks here, so I bought a couple to go: a carbonated watermelon drink and pear juice. Both were really good, and I'd order either one with my meal the next time we drop by. Also worth noting that rice and banchan refills are free so long as everyone at the table orders a dish. The purple rice has been overcooked and/or too hard at other Korean places I've been to, but it was fluffy and tender here, which I appreciated. However, one other minor complaint: it was a bit pricey for what we got. Three dishes plus tax and tip had our total just under $100. If we'd been here with even just one other person, I'm not sure what the total would've been. For a family of four or a group? It's got to start adding up pretty quickly. But at the end of the day, the food and service were good here and we'll be back to try more of the menu in the future.
