    Orange chicken lunch special
    Sandy R.

    My sister and I went in for lunch. I ordered combination Chow fun and my sister ordered a lunch special of Orange chicken, Chow mein, Fried rice and an oil soaked spring roll. The food was not edible. Old grease and too much of it, no taste in the Chow fun, only oil flavor. The Orange chicken was 90% batter. I won't even go into the rice and Chow mein, it was just as bad. Years ago it was good. Now I would give it a negative thousand stars. So bad! Also, $17 for the Chow fun and $19 for the lunch special - $3 extra to substitute the protein.

    The Orange chicken on the menu wasn't the  Orange chicken given to me with my ordet..Simply a breast fried with the skin on. Nasty

    This is the worst Chinese food ever made. I had ordered kung Po shrimp, orange chicken and beef fried rice. The orange chicken wasn't coated like advertised on the photo inside the menu. The chicken was a breast that was cut into pieces with the skin left on it. The rice was made with old grease, leaving a very dark brown stain on the paper plate. The kung Po was the worst the worst I ever tasted. The deep fried prawns was very good and cooked to perfection. The place only takes cash when ordering and now I understand why they don't take credit cards. Because if they did. Folks would call there credit card company and cancel there card. Because the food was simply trash and is only worth given to the "Crows". My wife and I decided to write a review on the waste of $59 dollars spent on tonight's Dinner. It lks like McDonald's will be our alternative for the night.

    Sorry I ate it before I took the picture... its all gone so that should mean something ‍

    The food is good, I only order dinner for five. If you substitute it cost, which is okay. The family dinner comes with fried prawns, rice, noodles, chicken, pork, bbq pork. I order sides of pot stickers these are deep fried. The lady is nice, this is family owned. It is pricey, but well worth the mullahh ($). You will be full and you will sleep well. Another place I usually order togo but when I was working downtown this is a hole in the wall you CAN eat at. I suggest you order your food to go and walk to a park or eat in your car.

    This place comes highly recommended by my cousin so I had to give a try after hearing all the rave for their lunch special. Definitely did not disappoint. Their lunch special which only costs $9 comes with barbecue pork fried rice, fried shrimp, chow mein and barbecue pork. I also really liked the fried shrimp that came with it, the batter was light and crispy. I liked how the food didn't feel greasy and wasn't salty at all. Solid place for lunch and I really enjoyed the fried rice. The barbecue pork is really tasty, not too salty. This chinese takeout is much better than Panda Express, and you get way more food. I couldn't even finish the lunch special - they give huge portions. I would highly recommend this place if you're looking for a quick and affordable lunch eat. I also would recommend getting take out because the inside isn't really set up for dine-in. Only thing was that they slightly skimped me on the barbecue pork (but thats okay, still a lot of food so can't complain). Also, the parking can be difficult because they are located in a small plaza with limited spaces. This place is also CASH ONLY, so be prepared.

It also does get pretty busy so definitely look to call or get on that waitlist ahead of time. Food was served pretty quickly and thoroughly cooked. So yummy. Everything was flavorful and juicy and tender. Good attention to detail for the skewers. They had designators to differentiate the different items. Tap to pay isn't accepted. Overall, Dynasty BBQ has some delicious food.

    Craving protein? This spot has got you covered for seasoned skewers over a warmed plate…read more I came here on a Saturday evening and there was no wait! I came with a friend and got seated immediately. In terms of service, there wasn't too much interaction with the staff since you order via QR code, but they will come over and put your receipt on the surface of the table and check off your items as they bring them out. Initially, my friend and I thought they grilled the skewers on the plate at the table; however, it comes pre-cooked and grilled, and the plate itself is there to keep your food warm. I looked under, and it's "powered" by a bunch of tea candles. Between both of us, we ordered some skewers of enoki mushrooms (which was my favorite, super tender and flavorful), some beef skewers, a beef skewer with lychee (super unique), beef tongue (a bit tough for my liking), and chicken skin (extremely crispy, somewhat hard to pull off the skewer). I want to call out again the beef with lychee since this was an item I do not see often. It was interesting because the beef was seasoned well and when combined with the lychee, it added a refreshing note; however, the lychee's textural profile was similar to fatty beef, which personally threw me off a bit as someone who tends not to like fatty cuts (if you are a fan though, you'll like this). Overall, this spot is an okay place to check out if you're in the area. Parking in this area of San Mateo is limited, but the restaurant itself has a lot of tables, so it can be good for bigger parties.

Recently I stopped to pick-up dinner with the plan to have leftovers. I called my order in and was quoted 40 minutes for my order to be ready. My order consisted of salted fish and chicken fried rice (this location has the best around SF and the peninsula), bitter melon beef, chicken chow mein, Thai style fried vermicelli (my favorite dish here), salt and pepper chicken wings. We also received a complimentary bbq pork fried rice. Everything was fantastic and we had plenty of leftovers for a few days.

Big won ton filled w pork and shrimp. Bok choy Broth not much flavor, in a separate container since this was a take-home order. Curry Beef Stew I've never had Curry beef stew before, prefer chicken, curry, but for some odd reason, I decided to order this dish. It was underwhelming and I won't order it again. The Curry sauce itself was OK but the big long pieces of beef were somewhat gross, lots of fat. They added plenty of slices to onions and a few pieces of green pepper and Julienned carrots, but that's about it for being called a stew. So I learned my lesson by not sticking to my usual order, and won't order wonton soup or curry beef stew again.

    Great place for Lanzhou hand-pulled noodles…read more 1. vegetables fried noodles (veggie chow mein), $15.48. I only tried a little of this (it was my daughter's order), and it seemed pretty good, but maybe nothing special.

I didn't try this, but the others said it was good. 4. chili oil noodles, $13.98. Very good! There was some bok choy (maybe blanched), shredded carrot, and soy bean bean sprouts, and a very tasty spicy chili oil. This comes with wide, flat noodles that are nicely chewy and bouncy. The noodles are very long, so you'll have to bite them off or cut them with your chopsticks. Portions are generous. We each took enough home for another small or medium-sized meal. There is an automated waitlist where you sign in at a kiosk and get a number. At the table, you can order through the QR code, but our waitress came over to take our order since we'd never been there before and had some questions. Service was fairly quick and efficient. There are lots of graphics on the walls explaining the history of the restaurant, how the noodles are made, and the history of Lanzhou noodles.

I've visited many times, and the consistency of the authentic flavors keeps me coming back. The menu is a deep dive into Shanghainese classics. My personal recommendations: ​The Staples: You can't go wrong with the Xiao Long Bao, Stir-Fry Rice Cakes, and the Sweet Spare Ribs. The Spicy Pickled Stomach and the Small Shrimp are favorites of mine. Their Cold Noodles and Yellow Croaker are excellent representations of the cuisine. ​If you visit during the week, check out their lunch specials. ​Service & Timing The kitchen is generally quite efficient.

The waiter also recommended a "Chinese broccoli with beef" that wasn't on the menu, which felt a bit unusual.
