Gourmet Village Restaurant

A great place to eat delicious fish soup, bittermelon, egg, and beef dishes, and many other scrumptious dishes. The service is good, the owner is nice, and the staff works hard. We come here a lot for good-quality, and inexpensive Chinese food!

Food is really good. And also good value. It’s usually not busy but tonight between the walk in to go orders, third party app and walk ins they were slammed. A good neighborhood spot that can also do banquet style cuisine. I recommend this place especially when the weather turns and you need hot food that tastes great!

Excellent classic Chinese home-style cooking with wide-range of choices, all done well, strong wok-hay, and reasonably priced. We had salt and pepper pork chops, scallops and egg white fried rice, and black bean clams, all were really good.

Such delicious food in a casual unassuming space! I ordered one dish and would return for this alone, and to try their other offerings based on the quality of this hit. The braised roast pork and tofu was exquisite. Juicy, unctuous, aromatic, and perfectly seasoned. The five spice from the roast pork, slices of ginger, whole garlic cloves and just a touch of sweetness added such depth to the braising sauce. The pillowy texture of the freshly fried soft tofu complemented the pork and crackling beautifully.

Excellent service. Great authentic Chinese food. They don't serve much of the westernized Chinese food here. Open late till 1am every night. Reasonable prices. Convenient location and I am always able to park right outside. I don't think these negative reviews are very accurate. I have never had cold food here and never seen the waitress be very ride, out of the probably >50 times I have been here. In fact they have some of the best service I think as they would remember the way I like my food prepped because of my diet without me reminding them, even though I only go there like once a month.

We visited one of the numerous Chinese restaurants in Millbrae and found the food to be quite good. My favorite dishes were the hot and sour soup and the Kung Pao chicken. However, don't expect great service, as this place is primarily for takeout. The restaurant could use a trip to IKEA for some decor and storage solutions to better organize their inventory.

The food tastes so delicious. This restaurant operates by a couple, they are so nice to customers. But they didn't hire any staff to take orders/packing the delivery/clean up tables, they do that all by themselves, which I totally understand because the owner told me it is very difficult to run a restaurant after a pandemic, it is impossible to earn any revenue if they hire staff. BTW, one of the best family restaurants in Millbrae San Mateo.
