It's salty but the name of this dish does indicate it but I like salty. I enjoyed my favorite comfort food, Beef Chow Fun (dry-style, hint of smokiness, good amount of tender beef . I try every Chinese restaurant's chow fun and this one is my new local favorite. They are grateful and thankful for business. Friendly owner. Will order from this restaurant again! Neat and clean, just needs some twinkly lights to draw more foot traffic,, but it has a simple, nostalgic vibe like the restaurants my aunt would take me to in SF Chinatown.

My favorite dishes were the hot and sour soup and the Kung Pao chicken. However, don't expect great service, as this place is primarily for takeout. The restaurant could use a trip to IKEA for some decor and storage solutions to better organize their inventory.

Once we sat down, hostess asked one person what she wanted to drink and walked away without asking the rest of the table. Food comes out as it is made, not all together. Good portions and flavors. Hostess never returned to table.

But they didn't hire any staff to take orders/packing the delivery/clean up tables, they do that all by themselves, which I totally understand because the owner told me it is very difficult to run a restaurant after a pandemic, it is impossible to earn any revenue if they hire staff. BTW, one of the best family restaurants in Millbrae San Mateo.
