Pan Tao
1686 S. Wolfe
Sunnyvale, CA 94087 |
Dependable, big selection, food is hot,
and there are lots of special dishes if you go during
rush hour. Carts
circle continuously. Excellent service. |
Parking is horrendous (try the dentist
office next door or the street). Salt & pepper shrimp
have thick shells. Siu mai just okay.

10 mins.
Has tables for two. |
Mayflower
Great Mall location
222 Great Mall Dr
Milpitas, CA
95035 (near Marshalls)
|
Dependable. Chef has been trying
out new, fusion-y dishes on our last few visits, e.g.,
seafood mayonaise rolls with canned fruit. Um... |
People who shop at the Great Mall drive like maniacs.
Good cart service, but they can take awhile to get around
to you. |
0-5 mins.
Has tables for two. |
Canton Delight
10125 Bandley Dr.
Cupertino, CA 95014
|
Managers circle with special dishes straight from the
kitchen. Serves unusual desserts. |
Selection is more limited than larger restaurants. |
0-5 mins.
Has tables for two. |
Dynasty Chinese Seafood
1001 Story Rd. Ste #200, San Jose, CA 95122
|
Food is again dependable if not particularly interesting.
Large selection of BBQ meats, which I always get pushed
on me if I go with white people. Awesome staircase! |
Parking is crazy on weekends. Be sure to stop by the
larger part of the mall, especially the food court. |
0-5 mins.
Very few tables for two, but there usually isn't a capacity
crowd even on weekends. |
Mayflower Ulferts location
428 Barber Lane Milpitas, CA 95035 |
Dependable but seems dull compared to other restaurants |
Can be busy on the weekends (nothing like Hong Kong
Flower though) |
15 mins.
Some tables for two. |
Ming's
1700 Embarcadero Rd.
Palo Alto, CA 94303
|
I only really go here because they have a lot of kiddie
desserts, like little rabbits made from custard and super
soft mochi. The rest of the food is so-so. |
Kind of a hike from San Jose. Kind of expensive. |
0-5 mins.
Has a few tables for two. |
* Wait times are estimates for a party of two.
For a party of four or more, add 5-10 mins.
