    Honey Walnut Prawns, house specialty, excellent!
    Jennifer O.

    The restaurant is all dressed up for Chinese New Year. I'm sure they're going to have families and generations celebrating all weekend and next week. Lucky to just miss the crowds, I enjoyed Uncle Wing Restaurant's excellent Honey Walnut Prawns ($12.99), crunchy fresh shrimp pan fried and tossed in a decadent creamy sauce with candied walnuts. A Yelper recommended it highly and she was spot on. I knew better than to order two fried items but I couldn't resist their Salt & Pepper Chicken Wings ($9.99) So I got them. The wings were sensational. I saved a couple for my son. Service was a bit slow but I arrived at an off hour. They graciously let me linger until a half hour before they closed for lunch; I was biding time until I could pick up my son. I'd go again to try their black pepper beef and delicious looking fish dishes. Happy Lunar New Year!

    They have great service and authentic Chinese food. The fried egg rolls were super delicious and big. Very filling for an appetizer. I also really enjoyed the shrimp, pork, chicken combo with fried rice. I tend to like spice, so I asked them to make it spicy and they were happy to do so.

    As you can see from my photos, the menu has been totally revised and options narrowed. I arrived quite early and there was nobody else in the dining room. I was greeted promptly and courteously. The decor was a little dated. The chairs have slipcovers like your old aunt Mildred might have used, but it just reminded me of some old places in Chinatown that have been there forever. Speaking of which, the drastic change in the menu from what I had seen online before I went, plus the food not matching some past stellar reviews had me wondering if perhaps the place had changed hands. It didn't seem to be quite the same restaurant described on the Yelp page that guided me here. My initial selection was the Szechuan beef, but I was told that this would be deep fried like the meat in sweet and sour pork or General Tso's chicken. That didn't sound like any Szechuan beef I've ever had before, so I changed my order and got the black pepper beef instead. This dish was tasty, the beef was tender, and the portion was adequate, but the one flavor I didn't notice was that of black pepper. I ordered a "small" hot and sour soup and received a bowl that might have served four. They show three sizes of soups on the menu. After I remarked on the "small" size being still rather large, I was told that I could have asked for a "cup," but this option was not indicated on the menu, nor did the server suggest it when I ordered. I did like the soup. The location was convenient, the service friendly, and the price reasonable. The food was good, but I wouldn't have gone out of my way for it if I had seen the new menu before I went. I don't think I will be back.

    The service is really nice the woman is very thoughtful and very caring and I really love the egg rolls especially for the price I keep coming back

    The egg rolls are big and crispy!

    Phenomenal food! The freshest, crispiest, and most flavorful chinese cuisine I've ever had. Friendly staff, intimate, cozy dining area. Must try the salt and pepper wings!!! Always love this place.

    We got the general chicken and garlic chicken. Super amazing!! Would definitely recommend.

    The singular perfection that is General Chicken at Uncle Wings in San Rafael
    Alfonso L.

    Here's a tip for all San Rafaelites in these inflationary times. Drop everything and hit this unassuming, charming Cantonese favorite for dinner. (OK, maybe check first to see if they've fixed their broken AC !) But do not sleep on their current (and must be popular) dinner special, something they call their "personal dinner". Choose any of their entrees, they add a perfect egg roll, some warm and satisfying wonton soup and a lovely dome of steamed rice for just $5.49 above the entree price. Still a pretty fair deal when you consider that their other menu simply has entrees and dishes at full price. So guess who serves the very best General Tso's Chicken? These guys do. No overcooked boulders of fried, over sauced boulders that are essentially coating, no cloying thick, molassesy gloppy sauce that's overly salty. Nothing could be more different, and yet be so elegant. Instead they served up a marvelous plate of golden, lightly fried but still crispy chicken with a glazey dousing of a light, oniony sauce that enrobed the pieces of chicken and kept everything moist and super delicious. More Chinese spots could learn a lot from this preparation. I finished the whole $11.99 entree. San Rafael, you've got a winner here, and convenient parking across the street. Service could not have been kinder.

    Beef chow fun and pot stickers, DELICIOUS! Yes that dragon truly resides on my counter. He isn't there just for the pic lol

    Prompt delivery but next time I will pay $8.95 for good tasting food. The entire order was bland at best, inedible at worst.

    A favorite in San Rafael. Check out the special board. After trying several other places this is my go-to choice.

    The ginger and scallions fish is amazing - especially when it's cold outside or you feel a cold coming on.

    Good solid chinese restaurant. The large soups are a great deal with enough soup for two or two meals.

    I have been living in Greenbrae for 13 years and complaining that there wasn't a good Chinese…read moreRestaurant locally; where I could get a really good combination fried rice and chicken curry. I was complaining to a friend ; who recommended that I try DJ's! I did that tonight - DJ's is a hidden gem. The staff were very friendly, and welcomed me with a cup of tea while I waited for my take out order. I didn't have to wait very long. I have just had a wonderful meal and enjoyed every mouthful. I will be definitely be returning to DJ's regularly to enjoy my favorite meal. There is also a very nice back patio where I enjoyed the tea. Well done DJ's !!! Sincerely, Robin Olive

    We got food to go tonight and the service was delightful. Very friendly and accessible. The food…read morewas a disappointment. We tried two different soups: a war won ton and a seafood soup. The war won ton was just the won tons with no fillings and the broth was good, but it was not what we expected. The seafood soup was mostly broth with a little bit of fresh mushrooms and French cut green beans and finely we found a couple shrimp and a few bits of calamari. The sweet and sour pork was mushy and didn't have much flavor. The kung pao shrimp was mostly onions! The next ingredient was green peppers and garlic. There were peanuts and still more onions. We are not fans of onions, so this was not a good surprise. The rice was fine but not special. We also ordered plain steamed vegetables and shrimp, which we will try tomorrow night if we are willing to eat this again. Service 5/5 Food 2.5/5 Ambiance 4/5 lovely patio in back of the building and nice linen table clothes. Good window seating. Value/price 3/5 expensive for the quality of the food (canned, frozen veggies etc) The food brings down the experience and we won't go back.
