Su Hong Eatery-palo Alto

This restaurant is one of my family’s favorites. Unlike other well-presented Chinese restaurants in the area, the prices are reasonable for the large servings. The flavors are authentic, though some dishes are on the greasier side (mainly vegetable dishes like the string beans or mushrooms). I recommend coming early, before lunch or dinner rushes, for the best experience. I usually eat here around 5:30 pm and get the first dish in 10 minutes since the servers are unoccupied.

Upscale westernized Chinese restaurant. Perfect for the night out. Not recommended if you're looking for a cheap and fast meal. Food: 4/5 Service: 5/5 Atmosphere: 5/5 Price: 1/5 (Expensive!) If you're indecisive like me, good luck at this place. They have a huge menu. Most items on the menu come in small or large portions. Small plates range from $10-$13 and large plates from $15-$20. I'm not sure what the difference between the two sizes are, you'll have to ask. We had four large dishes and our total came out to be ~$90 before tip. The food here satisfies the Asian-American part of me, because the dishes have been tweaked for our western tastebuds. I would not come to this place looking for mom's homemade cooking. What stands out the most about this restaurant is its upscale atmosphere and accommodating service. Something you rarely see at Chinese restaurants are uniformed waiters. The service here is truly outstanding. Never once was my glass my empty it never took more than a couple of seconds to get a waiter's attention. Also loved talking and joking around with the waiters...in both Chinese and English!

Came here with some family friends on a weekend! I’ve come here a good amount growing up and I haven’t found it to be the most kind blowing experience I’ve had but it is a decent Chinese food place! Food: I decided to rely on yelp and try something new so I had the crackling rice soup and it was actually really unique! I enjoyed the combination of crunchy rice and the salty soup! I also liked the red bean dessert they give at the end and the fortune cookies. Service: Food comes out decently quickly and they usually bring one thing out at a time! Ambiance: Finer Chinese dining place! Overall, I wouldn’t come again since it’s quite standard Chinese quality but if I was around town I might go again for traditions’ sake.
