Budget Relief

This is the best Chinese food on the East of San Jo… Come here for lunch and you get hefty portions for less than $10. The seafood is cooked just right, and clay-pots variety are interestingly delicious.

Have a habit of ordering from their Combination Menu during weekend and holidays cuz of the crowd… For feeding your family with Combos starting at $30, this is your best bet for a budget relief!..

Lunch Munch

This place is the best during those college dayz.

The Lunch specials are so affordable, and you can never go wrong with a side bowl of wor won ton soup (for one) which Tony puts in some veggie and trimmed meat and a prawn…

Lunch Munch is a good deal here, try the Peking spareribs and OMG you’ll forget about the usual sweet & sour pork…

Beg to differ

I have seen some bad reviews on this one. However, this place maintains its existence by sustaining it’s menu price from the 80’s…It’s broken down environment implies the ‘humble spirit’ of the owners that has kept this place here for many more years to come…

I drive up here because it is the only Chinese place that has it on the Menu: The “Won-Ton Gravy”. OMG this dish drives me crazy with those won tons (4-6) smothered with what looks like oyster sauce beef gravy… My oh my, I buy 2 of these to eat here and 2 to go and still manage to drive back to San Jo with $10 for gas….

Thanx George, keep that item on the menu. Will go back again

Good To Go

This hole in the wall serves some of the best Chinese Takeout in Downtown. The sauces are somewhat unique and the noodles are very good.

Call ahead and you’ll be able to get in and out of the one way street there. Good place for Chi fix on the run…..
