PLEASE BE AWARE THEY WILL OVER CHARGE YOU AND TELL YOU THEY CANT DO ANYTHING ABOUT IT. My friend and I was running behind and had to catch a flight and decided to stop by this place because it was close to the airport. Before being seated we noticed there werent any customers in the restaurant, so we asked to be seated near the window. The waiter said no but another worker came and said that we could, I mean after all no one was in the place. So after eating we said we were ready to pay and asked the waiter could we get separate checks. She still proceeded to bring a non split check that totaled to $44.00. With my meal totaling 16.00 with tax included we asked again could you please split the check. She said yes and took our debit cards but came back with a paid receipt showing 22.00 on each of our receipts. I explained to her that my meal wasnt 22.00 and that they were over charging me. She said there nothing that she could do about it. A guy came over who exclaimed he was the manager. I explained to him and showed him that my meal was 16.00 but the waiter charged me for 22.00. He said that before we ordered our food we should have told them that it would be separate tickets and that there was nothing he could do about it although he knows my meal was 16.00. He then suggested that my friend go get cash and pay me back. This is not the type of treatment I expect when going to support a business. They wont except anyone giving them 11.00 for a 15.00 meal, so why did they think it was ok to over charge me. I will never support this business again because its not only about the small amount of money that I do work hard for but the principle. It was wrong!

We entered this restaurant at approximately 7:30PM/06DEC and were asked by one of the male server for the number of persons who will be dining and was told to wait while he clears out the table. We were waiting by the door for 5 minutes when 3 diners entered the restaurant and a female server approached them and greeted them and have them seated immediately. That female server blatantly discriminates us by ignoring the fact that we arrived ahead of the 3 guests which she claims to have reservations when I confronted her about it. I told her that if their restaurant only accepts diners with reservations then they should have not asked us to stand and wait while tables are being cleared. This female server should know that bringing guests through their front door is the first step to making a profit. Hence, restaurants are obliged to make the seating and reservation procedures as smooth and fair as possible in order to elevate the total quality of the customer experience. Seating procedures that show courtesy and care for the guest aids in building a pleasant first impression, whether your restaurant accepts reservations or not. Gentle and polite explanations can assuage most guests and create a great impression of your service

Shockingly rude manager. Bland food. The server brought out one of the dishes ordered by our party of three leaving us with an awkward situation. Should we wait so we could all eat together? After 10 more minutes I approached the manager to see when the other persons food (a simple fried rice and chicken dish) would be served. He said "you dont know Chinese! Thats the way we do it!" He became very agitated when all I asked was for him when it would be served. Geez! This guy was very insulting, suggesting I should honor the Chinese tradition of not serving everyone at once. He said we should share!

The basics: +Payments: Visa/MasterCard only +Good for small groups +Good for kids (if well-behaved) +Modern interior +Take-out available +Plenty of street parking +Wine and beer +Soft classical background music +Mellow atmosphere Excellent new neighborhood bistro serving up authentic Chinese dishes. Simple menu with a variety of regional items like Xiao Lung Bao (小龍包) and the Singapore Chow Mix Fun (星洲炒米). Service is great. Friendly and efficient. Very very reasonably priced. Xiao Lung Bao was $6.95. Highly recommended.

The food is delicious and unlike any other Ive experienced. Each item is served as a delightful experience and the staff is so friendly and accommodating. The prices are very reasonable for the quality of cuisine and atmosphere. It is quite comfortable despite the many patrons. The furnishings are classy and cozy. This place is like no other and you will not be disappointed!

A year ago at BABScon we ordered Young Can Walk, and it was absolutely delicious. The person on the phone didnt rush me when I had questions, they offered suggestions, and even though it took about 15 minutes to get to us, the food was still hot and tasted amazing. Its become a tradition to get Young at BABS. Thank you for being so great.

Absolutely incredible. I have been waiting for a Chinese restaurant like this. Food is fresh, original, unique and no msg. They use little sugar. Good ambience, and friendly staff. A must to try

Amazing food. one of the best Chinese restaurants in the Bay Area. Dumplings are great. Singaporean noodles are fantastic. All dishes are fantastic. Staff is nice and friendly. Great new restaurant!

Très bon restaurant. Cuisine avec des produits frais et de qualité. Très bon accueil.

Consistently good food. The pork potstickers (pan fried) are really good, and their garlic broccoli is awesome. The only issue is the service, which can sometimes feel brusque or rushed.

A neighborhood favorite, all the locals in Burlingame eat here! Good food, quick takeout and the friendliest staff around make this a top go-to for a Chinese fix.

Yep, pretty good Chinese food. Not super authentic, but pretty much as good as it gets in the bay area.
