    Black bean sauce chicken with crispy chow mein noodles
    Allena C.

    For years, I've been curious about Suily's Cafe, so we decided to stop by on a weekday for lunch around noon. The place only holds about 8-10 tables, give or take. It's your typical, no frills Chinese restaurant. The guy who served us was quick, efficient, and bilingual (English and Cantonese). *** O U R P I C K S *** BLACK BEAN SAUCE CHICKEN WITH CRISPY CHOW MEIN NOODLES (Hong Kong style) ~ noodles were crispy, fried well, and covered with gravy and chicken. Chicken was tender but tasted plain without seasoning. The gravy was well seasoned with fermented black beans. 4/5 STRING BEANS WITH CHICKEN ~ ordered this dish not knowing it had the same gravy as the crispy noodles. This was good, but the chicken was like the other dish, unseasoned. 4/5 SALT AND PEPPER PORK CHOPS ~ we got a mound of pork chops! But there's a lot of crispy, crunchy batter on it. And the meat was also pretty plain, seasoned with maybe only salt and black pepper. 4/5 You get a generous portion of food for $10- $15 a plate, but I feel the meat would taste better if it was properly seasoned prior to cooking. Other than that, the amount of food will carry you through for a few days! So if you're looking to stretch the dollar, this might be your go-to spot!

    Beef with Oyster Sauce

    Generous portion for an affordable price. The staff were unassuming and hospitable and service was very quick. I can see why this is a neighborhood staple.

    The food portions are very good. They packed it well. The service was good. The ambiance, they have some tables and chairs if you want to dine-in. I had to take it to-go. The prices are amazing as well. My friend took me here. If I am around the area again, I would definitely stop by here. I already mentioned to my other friend who lives in the city. So, she will try it out as well.

    I ordered Mongolian beef. This was the ratio of meat to onions. Scam

    Came here to order salt and pepper fish for CNY 2026, it was definitely last minute, but the staff who answered the phone was super courteous and said they were open till 6:30pm. I called another place prior nearby but they said they closed at 5:00pm and when I went there it was 4:30pm, they turned me away and said no more orders because they were too busy. Anyways I will recommend Suily from now on. As this was the first time I felt they were nice and catered to my needs quickly. The staff was professional and friendly. I'm glad I came here, as I waited for my salt and pepper fish I saw others dining happily and the portions are generous and reasonably priced. They are like a hidden gem. Will definitely be back to try out their other dishes.

    Finally got to visit Suily's, came during the week at midafternoon in part because I wanted to avoid the rush when the kitchen gets busy. Restaurant was empty so no waiting, and just a short wait for an order of Dry Beef Chow Fun,To Go , price $12 with tax, it was good but needed a splash of Soy Sauce for my palate, no issue with the noodles, had a generous amount of beef, and sprinkle of sprouts. The young woman that took my order, and payment was pleasant. As for the space it's simple, and with a wall of windows welcoming. I'll happily come back.

    Bbq pork scramble egg over fried rice YUM
    David V.

    I visited Suily's, a staple in Daly City for quit some time. Since I now have the opportunity to experience more of their dishes again I asked if they can make one of my all time favorites, bbq pork in scramble egg over fried rice (a specialty dish that I learned decades ago, the locals go-to spot, Sam's Kitchen in Pacifica)! Mind you, this dish is not on their menu but the server was more than happy to have their chefs make it for me. When he presented the generous dish on the table and I took the first bite, it brought back so many memories. Thank you to the Suily's team for being so kind in making my special requests, an experience I can now continue to indulge that brings back so many memories!

    A staple in Daly City, my family has been ordering food from here since I was young. Very cheap and friendly and they opened up seating again.

    Greetings fellow organisms, I therefore would like to concede that the food here is complementary, savory with a deluxe texture. The service was very multitudinous in serving food in a gifted amount of time. the ambiance was exceptional, and distinguished.

    Walking in, you can tell this is one of those spots that the locals really love. It has a humble, no-frills feel, but the focus is clearly on serving generous, flavorful food at reasonable prices. The portion sizes were huge, and just about every table had plates piled high with food that looked great. Service was quick and the food came out fast, which made the experience even better. I ordered their egg foo young to see how they do it, and it came out fluffy and light without feeling heavy or greasy. The gravy had great flavor and wasn't overly salty, but what I appreciated most was that they served it over their egg fried rice, which had a noticeable wok hei that tied everything together really well. The wings were good and meaty, but I wasn't a big fan of the thick batter. While they tasted fine, it made them feel more like chicken fingers than wings, which just isn't my preference. The inside of the restaurant could use a deeper cleaning, but the food definitely makes up for it. There's indoor seating, and parking is mostly on the street. However, there's also a lot near the Walgreens right out front if you need something easier. If you're in the area and looking for a solid meal with big portions, this spot is worth checking out.

    Salt and Pepper Pok Chops
    Hien L.

    $12 for salt and pepper pork chops over rice and tea, $15 after tip. No whiny kids yelling "order for me!" No "I want this!" or "I want that!" And no ridiculous bill at the end. Don't get me wrong, I love taking my family out and spending quality time together, but sometimes it's nice when it's just me, myself, and I enjoying some peaceful time alone. People really underestimate how nice it is to eat by yourself sometimes. And for this gem in the area, the portions were seriously huge.

    It says here on yelp new covid update delivery with a check mark on the side.... but I can't find anywhere how to get it delivered, also it's Thursday and I've been calling since 11:30 with no answer, are they even open?

    They only have one waiter/cashier. Don't know if they have anyone to deliver. We called first and no one answered. So we went to the restaurant directly and they were open. You might just take a chance and drop by.

    Anyone know if Suily's is open (other than Tuesdays)? I tried calling them, but no one has been picking up.

    We drove by today and the open sign was in the window.

    What are their updated hours for take out orders?

    Went there on Wednesday. They are open at 11:00am until 8:30pm except for Tuesdays. We ordered at the restaurant for take-out.

Another guest was waiting for their take-out order. One server working the front of the house. Service was minimal but efficient at the same time. She brought us everything we asked for immediately. The menu is fairly large, but we still managed to order variations of dishes not listed on the menu. Most Chinese restaurants will accommodate a guest request so long as they have the ingredients and they know how to compose the dish. How they work out the pricing may be something else. At the table immediately behind my mom, I heard the guest ordering a Hot & Sour Soup, add Won Ton. One of my favorite mash-ups! We ended up having a very nice conversation over lunch. Of course, we ordered the same soup and the price they charged was a reasonable $16.95. I've had some places try to charge me for two soups which I think is ridiculous. We also ordered a Seafood Chow Mein and a Chicken Dry Fried Chow Fun with Yau Chow Sum. All three dishes came out nice and hot. The flavors were on point very satisfying. I goofed and didn't a picture of the Chow Fun because it came out last and I was already tucking into my Chow Mein. Mom enjoyed it so we'll be back!

Ordering was easy, the staff were genuinely warm and accommodating, and the food came out in about 10 minutes! No complaints on the service side at all. Honestly, the team here was a highlight. The food, however, was a bit hit or miss. What I'd recommend: Honey Walnut Prawns: The clear standout of the meal. Well executed, good flavor, and the shrimp were a generous size. If you come here, get this. What I'd skip: Fujian Fried Rice: Unfortunately pretty disappointing. The texture was mushy and it lacked flavor throughout. Wouldn't order again. Deep Fried Flounder: Way too heavily battered. The thick coating of flour overpowered everything and there wasn't much flavor coming through underneath. Could be a solid dish with a lighter touch. Seafood Pan-Fried Crispy Noodle: Decent enough but pretty flat on flavor. Just okay. Deep Fried Fish Balls: The flavor was actually there, which was a plus, but they were a bit overcooked and came out harder than they should have been. Overall, the service genuinely saved the experience. The staff were great and the vibe was pleasant. But the food didn't quite land for me and I likely won't be back. If you do go, stick to the Honey Walnut Prawns and maybe explore some dishes I didn't try.

But, despite…read moremaking reservations and confirming days in advance, the receptionist made us wait in line for a number. That said, the wait was only a few minutes for a 1:00 PM Friday lunch. I can live with that. We were shown to a middle table surrounded by other diners, but able to sit comfortably without bumping into anyone. We could get in and out of our seats without doing gymnastics or mortal combat - a problem in the past here. The ambience was festive without being explosively loud. Wce could actually hold meaningful conversation - such a lovely surprise! The furnishings could have done with some upgrading (carpets and decor felt a bit shabby). But the lighting was comfortable - I was grateful not to have glaring fluorescent fixtures illuminating us and the food. Service was unusually attentive, as I was accustomed to being abandoned by wait staff after putting in our orders in the past. I suspect they recognized our guests, two prominent and beloved retired local politicians. The variety and creativity of their dim sum was the best I've tasted in years. No ubiquitous dumpling fillings here! No gummy gravies or sauces. Each flavor was distinct, unique and scrumptious. Two rice roll dishes were the standouts. One had green spinach in the rice noodle and a crunchy, but chewy texture with the shrimp filling. The cha siu roll was generously filled and included a light sauce reminiscent of that used in cha siu bows. Every dish was fresh, sporting beautiful vibrant colors, with delicious sauces for each item. Servings were generous and satisfying. The roast duck was to die for and quickly devoured. After a hideous dinner banquet here years ago, (overpriced, slow and bad service, food served cold with sauces congealed, days-old rock cod passed off as "live from the tank", lobsters too tough to cut or eat), I had avoided coming back to Koi Palace until this current meal. Thankfully, this experience restored my faith and I will be returning more often. I am glad, because I've been following the chefs / owners for decades and admired their food since their Happy Valley hot pot days at Levi Plaza. Long live Koi Palace! I'm glad I gave it another chance.

Things started okay as we ordered a few lamb skewers as an appetizer which were a little tough, but had a nice cumin and spicy flavor. However, the main course was the biggest disappointment. We ordered three noodle soups and beef chow mein, and they were all extremely bland.

Both were very under-salted and had very little flavor. The chow mein was equally bland, and the noodles were also very mushy and overcooked. I have never found myself reaching for the soy sauce at restaurants, but I did this time, not that it helped much. Overall, the meal felt very unsatisfying.

Beef, scallop, chicken skin/heart skewers were pretty flavorful and had some good smokiness to them, but the lamb skewers weren't up to par with the others. The chilli wontons were pretty good, plump, juicy, and had a strong spicy kick to them. Fried rice was exceptional, ended up ordering an extra order.

They are located in a strip mall near several different food places, bakery, and a bowling alley. This is a solid dim sum place, with no frills and reasonable prices. You order off a printed menu that's in Chinese with tiny English subtitles. You can also order off their regular menu if you want to supplement the dim sum dishes. Their food is very good, and some dishes were excellent. The service was pretty quick, and before we knew it, all our dishes were out with almost no room on the lazy Susan. The standouts for me were: + Steamed custard buns (piggy buns) - I ordered these for the kiddies, but dang they are so good. The custard filling is so velvety, it's almost like pudding. I think I detected a hint of coconut too - yum. + Beef chow fun - this had a really good wok flavor and the noodles were less wide than most. The noodles didn't clump either, and the bean sprouts were still crispy. + Roasted pork belly - the skin was so crispy and the pork was juicy. We ordered most of the basic dishes like har gaw, sui mai, noodle rolls, turnip cake, stuffed eggplant, chicken feet, etc. and they were all above average. My only complaint is if you don't read Chinese, the menu is a little hard to navigate. The English subtitles are so small that if you're looking for something, you have to scan the front and back of the menu trying to find the item. I was looking for sticky rice in lotus leaf, but found sticky rice roll and thought it was the same thing. It wasn't. The sticky rice roll was not bad, but I found the rice drier than when it's in lotus leaf. We ordered a few things by mistake because the English subtitles were not that descriptive. Overall, a great alternative to more popular places like Koi Palace. The menu may not be as creative as Koi, but you don't have to deal with the lines and you still get great food.
