One of my favorite Chinese restaurants in the Bay Area. Plenty of options: recommending the duck and beef dishes. Love hot and sour soup but here it was not as good as I like; less flavor and spicy. Still one of my best places for Asian food! They allow you to add meet options to vegetable dishes!

Chef Chu’s is an iconic Chinese restaurant (albeit Americanized) that I had heard a lot about. The place itself is very cozy looking and you can tell it’s been around for 50 years – it has that kind of lived in, almost dingy look to it. Our plates were a little dirty looking.
There is a lot of seating and people are efficient, I still recommend a reservation.
Food itself was okay, we got the cold bamboo shoots which were good but not fantastic, and then schezuan beef which was yummy but a little too crispy, and the smoked pork. Now that dish was AWFUL – rice could not cut through how awfully salty it was. I was not impressed by anything. They did give us tea though!
The price is also not that worth it, each dish was at least $20 which is insane for apps and the small portion size

Very popular Chinese restaurant for over 5 decades. Chef Chu still comes around to greet his guests and his son Larry is a great host helping you with ordering dinner . His other son Jon Chu is producer director or Crazy Rich Asians and Wicked . And was a guest judge at Dancing with the Stars.. wicked night. A iconic restaurant b. Check out the guest photos on their wall

As a Wicked fan and avid foodie, I was so excited to check this place out. The food was just delicious and so comforting. The service was as good as it gets with the servers and hosts knowing so many of their customers. Bonus points for the Wicked stuff hidden around the restaurant!
Opinion Worth a Thought
Not sure what the hype about this place is. Food is delicious, not outstanding. I can get similar food quality at other restaurants in the area
Servers were attentive and courteous. We were well taken care of. However, there was a long wait between appetizers and main dishes that left us wondering whether anything was coming after appetizers
Appreciate having round tables for our group. It made mingling much easier than long tables
