Leshan is your quick chinese meal goto, order everything on your phone and the meal will be out soon after. Took off points because most of this stuff is just too salty, and also the one time use dishware really throws me off guard. We had some soup in our overall food order and it was really difficult eating out of a rectangular one time use bowl. The only items that I found edible from not being overly salted is the tender beef and wonton soup, everything else really was too salty to eat without eating a bunch of rice with it. read more

Clean & simple interior that reminds me of cafeteria style restaurant. It's order from QR code & food brought to your table. Minimal staff but friendly when available. It's the formula to keep prices reasonable. We ordered the Leshan style signature beef noodle soup which is probably the only one in town (or in Bay Area). Quite delicious!! Soup is clear but flavorful and beef was tender & not overwhelming. We asked for spicy on the side so if one likes spicy, this can be quite spicy. The signature salad is ok. Cool with multiple ingredients. One has to mix it yourself then eat. Interesting dish. I like it. The vegetables with lamb (think it was lamb)... quite spicy... tastes ok. Will be back for more if in the area. read more

This restaurant took over what was Chef Us; or maybe the business model just changed? The furniture and layout is pretty much identical. Not a bad thing. It's a pretty roomy layout. One thing a bit off-putting though is they only use disposable bowls and utensils. And the bowls are the compostable ones so rice tends to stick to it. We ordered this combo meal which came with 4 dishes. - Leshan beef soup: pretty good. Beef had nice smooth texture. Came with a side of spices to dip if you like spicy. The soup itself was ok. Lots of cilantro and scallions. - pork belly: pretty good. Hard to go wrong with pork belly though - fish with sour veggie: it was ok. The fish had a bit of muddy taste, but the sour veggies masked it. - stir fried bok choy: decent but nothing special. It was a bit spicy though since there's some spicy oil. Overall, I'd say it's worth a try but I don't think we left being so impressed that we would return. We did try to stay away from spicy dishes though since we had kids. So maybe their spicy dishes are more impressive. We did see most tables next to us eating noodles. read more

Leshan Beef is a standout spot that nails everything that matters: incredible food, a clean and comfortable interior, and simple, fast service that makes lunch easy and satisfying. Even better if you like spicy food. The lunch special for the dry noodles is especially outstanding--bursting with a unique, savory flavor that you don't find everywhere and genuinely hard to stop eating. It's an underappreciated hole-in-the-wall that appears to be family-owned, which only adds to its charm and authenticity. Everything tastes fresh and thoughtfully prepared, and the efficient service means you're in and out without feeling rushed. If you love discovering great authentic Chinese food, this is absolutely a place worth supporting! read more

Came across this restaurant while hungry in the area with some friends. We decided to give the restaurant a try because it was quiet and had some toys for a toddler in our party. Decor is quite cute and simple. Service was nice and food was good. Our favorite was the pork belly :) I think it's worth a try if the menu seems interesting to you! read more

Leshan Beef - Chinese Near Me - San Jose, California

So this seems to be a Mission Chinese scenario in reverse. Mission Chinese was inside another restaurant with no signage initially. Well Leshan Beef has taken over the space of ChefUs but the latter is still running out of their kitchen? Wacky. I didn't have a stellar experience at ChefUS and I'm glad they decided to make a more traditional restaurant instead addition to their ghost kitchen/.takeaway business. Now I had no idea where Leshan was not anything about the food . Apparently neither did my Chinese friend. So seeing the grand opening sign we went in. Turns out it is a region adjacent to Sichuan and I guess they love all parts of the cow. So we tried the thinly sliced beef, beef tongue and a combo of tendon/tripe. The dishes all come in a beef broth with herbs and cabbage. Conceptually it is kind of like pho but different spices in the broth. In fact the tripe tendon one was very similar to a pho sans noodles but with cabbage so it was good but not special. The thin beef and tongue however were fantastic. The cook on those where were stellar. The soup comes with this orange spice mix to season to taste. We also got the pork special noodles which is somewhat adjacent to a tan tan noodles and it was also very tasty. It turns out the owner is Sichuanese and decided to make a restaurant that was slightly more unique. She was super nice and gave us some of the base soup to taste. I'd definitely come back again to try the other Leshan specialties. Glad they took something that was just ok and created something much tastier 4.3 stars read more

I ordered takeout and was genuinely impressed! It is Qiao Jiao Beef which is very popular in Leshan, Sichuan. It is not spicy at all! Many people might not be familiar with it. It's similar to the tender sliced beef you find in pho, but the flavor is deeper and more savory. The beef was super tender, and the broth was rich and comforting. I especially like the beef tongue too! Great portion size and thoughtful packaging. I'll definitely be ordering again! read more

Most of their dishes are spicy, so if you are not into spicy food, the selection is limited. One thing that really put me off was that they use all disposable bowls and utensils. First, it's extremely bad for the environment. Second, it makes the dining experience less enjoyable. At least for me, I feel it's less of a restaurant experience, rather an experience of eating at a cheap fast food. O read more

I ordered the Leshan beef, but the beef is not very fresh. I had an upset stomach after the meal.

Ordered to go from their website, when I picked up the order, noticed one item was out of order, Was told need to go through the third party that takes the order to get the refund, called them few times as well as the restaurant. No result. Only need to play what you ordered. The restaurant should be responsible to get the extra charge back! Not good for business! read more

best authentic Sichuan restaurant in South Bay, chicken both wonton, and home made tofu are must try.
