Best Chinese Restaurants in El Cerrito

Service was spot on, Agape Soul was bangin', food was YES. The cocktails and duck bao were a highlight.

Got sat in side dining room right next to a service station at the bar, which was not a good place to sit. Waiter didn’t offer to change for clean plates until almost the end of the meal. Ask to be in the main dining room if at all possible.

We came here for our family Christmas Dinner - it was packed with families doing the same thing! Many were Chinese families, which always is a good sign in a Chinese restaurant. Clearly the restaurant was ready for the crowd becaue they had a good number of wait staff on hand. The food was wonderful! Several of us are vegetarian, and we have 9 year old who is just beginnin to willing to venture beyond his kid-favorite foods. We were easily able to select options for everyone, and we were pleased with all of our choices! We will be back!

Scallops with Vermicelli and the squad were out of this world. Mopa spaghetti was a bit salty. Other dishes were fine. Restaurant was small but a surprisingly large number of counter seating which we enjoyed. Ambience was spartan with a Hong Kong Canto Pop theme. Waitresses were super friendly. We will come again

It’s a fun spot with tasty food at a moderately premium price. There is better Chinese food to be had in San Francisco, but the vibe here makes it worth the occasional trip. We had the chrysanthemum salad, which was very tasty and fresh though I didn’t much care for the dressing. It seemed a little bland to me. We had the xiao long bao, which I usually love. These were very tasty, but nothing special. The fat noodles were great. The sauce was a little sweet to my taste. The winner for me was the tofu clay pot with minced pork. Wonderfully spicy and full of interesting flavors, offset by the creamy creamy tofu. Really beautifully prepared.
