Chinese Cuisine
The popularity of Chinese food in America can be adjudicated by the appearance of China Town in many major cities in the United State of America. The popular trend of ordering or opting for Chinese take away food isn't unknown in America. Chinese take away food comes to rescue when you're too tired from work or too exhausted to cook. No one can resist the temptation of eating spicy noodles, shrimp, chicken, beef or pork cooked in the sweet and spicy sauce. The cooking method of authentic Chinese food is a lot different compared to what is served in America.
Generally, Chinese use dark meat small bones and organs to cook dishes but this changes when you are eating American-Chinese fusion food prepared using white boneless meat cooked with broccoli, carrots and onions. Back in China, the food is less spicy and oily as they favor steaming and braising method for cooking the most popular dishes. So, if you have a taste for authentic Chinese food, then try finding a real Chinese restaurant in the city. You can also try the most popular fusion Chinese food like Pecking Duck, Chicken Feet, Hot Pot, Shrimp Dumpling Soup, Mapo Tofu, Wontons, Chop Suey, Egg Rolls and not to forget Fortune Cookies.
There are not many restaurants in America serving authentic Chinese food. A little research on Restaurant Listings directory can help you locate the best Chinese restaurants in the city. Chinese cuisine is continuously evolving, and you can find a variety of dishes categorized as the food for lactose intolerant, gluten intolerant, vegan, vegetarian, and diabetic friendly. So, if you have a group of friends with different taste patterns, save the hassle and visit the nearest Chinese restaurant in your city.

It's been quite some time since I last ate here and I suggested to my sister Family Noodle House for dinner tonight as we were contemplating to go to Happy Garden. What a mistake that was.. First of all, we arrive at about 630pm and there was NO ONE dining here. Bad sign if you ask me. Secondly, the usual waitress / manager was not working and instead there was a new lady who just wasn't all there. I had a strong feeling she wasn't used to the food industry because it took her some time to get our pots of hot tea and glasses of iced water. Another bad sign was taking our food order. We kept on repeating our food order only to have her make repeated errors. Their signature deep-fried peanuts did make it to the table and it tasted different. By this time it was clear this establishment is under new management!!! Eventually we asked her how long it's been since they took over and she confessed it's only been a few months. The menu and food is the same but there is a major issue with execution. Here is what we ordered tonight: MINUTE CHICKEN CAKE NOODLE (4/5) The noodles were fried very nicely and NOT deep-fried. They use the whole chicken w/ bones so BEWARE. I personally like to eat chicken with bones as it's tastier. A little hassle but worth it in my opinion. The only flaw in this dish was the gravy. Too much cornstarch so it was clumpy. FISH BALLS w/ EGG DROP SAUCE (2/5) The ratio between fish cake and pork hash was OFF. Too much pork so it was on the hard side. It also lacked in flavor so I had to rely on the homemade chili oil. The only positive marks in this dish are A) CHOY SUM vegetables were used instead of the previous Chinese cabbage and B) there were bits of dried scallop and dried shrimp which elevated this dish. SPICY TOFU RAMEN (1/5) First of all, the noodles were AWFUL. It was not your typical RAMEN noodles. They were thick and soft - - something like look funn noodles but sliced very thin. It was mushy and GROSS. I asked for spicy and the dish came out mild. The sauce lacked flavor and therefore highly disappointed. CHICKEN KATSU CURRY w/ RICE (1/5) This place doesn't know how to cook chicken katsu and Japanese curry. The chicken was deep-fried well but it had the consistency of lemon chicken. The curry sauce was waaaay too sweet. It should be savory and somewhat spicy so this dish fell flat on its face. The accommodating rice was JASMINE and didn't match the dish at all. Very disappointed with this dish. SINGAPORE RICE NOODLES (2/5) The noodles were on the thick side as well as soft so this dish was also very bad. However, I did like the large shrimps and fresh char siu pork salvaged this dish. The noodle consistency was very off and all members of this table gave it thumbs down. BEEF STEW w/ WON TON RAMEN (2/5) Once again, the RAMEN noodles were BAD. Too soft. Being the only table some members of my family were bold enough to question the new owners about the food. It was revealed to us that dried RAMEN noodles are used, not the fresh ones. It lacked body and this dish also didn't work. However, the beef stew and won ton dumplings were good. The new owners were taught how to prepare the food only to miss the cut. I feel really bad for this place. It was very empty and the food was poor. After the meal I suggested my sister perhaps we give this place another chance. The only good dish for the evening was the cake noodle so we'll most likely eat this next time. However, I'm pretty sure that I can do a better job at making cake noodle. It's not that difficult at all. You just need to be patient. Overall, a bad dining experience here. I don't have the heart to give it a one-star rating so I've bumped it up to 2-stars.

This place is called, "FAMILY NOODLE HOUSE," now. The ownership may have changed. The restaurant is located in a open market. The entrees are below $10.00. Appears to be a Mom and Pop operation. My family and I were there in the morning for breakfast and service was a bit slow, but well worth it. The "POP" is an excellent Chef! We ordered the: 1. Salted egg with lean pork Jook (#21) (Congee), but got Preserved egg with lean pork (#20) Jook. $5.75. Possibly miscommunication 2. Wonton Tossed (Egg) Noodle (#64) 3. Char Siu Fried Rice (#80) $7.25 4. Cold Ginger Chicken on Rice (#85) $7.25 5. Miso Ramen (#49) $7.95 All the dishes were excellent! I would go back again.

These fucking assholes hung up on me twice in a row, the third call they screamed in the phone and hung up a third time. At this point i checked to make sure the number was right and it definitely was. After that i tried that they just hung up immediately about 4 more times - the fifth they picked up once again to proceed to scream, once again. Im going in person tomorrow or tuesday to ask them what the hell is going on in their freaking brains.

I generally don't write a review unless it's really really REALLY BAD. I don't even want to give them one star, they were that bad!! I didn't even try the food!! Just the customer service was really bad. I just called to see if we could get a menu faxed over to my work place since me and my co-workers wanted to order lunch. We figured we would try this place. So when I called they didn't even acknowledge that it was the right restaurant and I had to ask 3 TIMES if I had called the right restaurant, before being transferred to someone else and asking another 2 TIMES. Then I asked if they could fax over a copy of their menu...all the lady said was "hmp" and HUNG UP ON ME!! JUST RUDE!! Never gonna support their business ever again no matter how good they are.

This small hole in the wall place across from Oahu Market in Chinatown is pretty much the best place to get jook. I haven't tried their noodle soups, but I hear they are great also. I didn't know of this place until I asked my mother, who frequents Chinatown quite a bit gave me a recommendation to try this place after my bout of jook craving. This restaurant is just like your normal casual street side/market side eatery in Hong Kong, just a bit bigger. Food is cooked to order and comes out after a bit of waiting. It's not too long, but just enough to know that your food is not made in the morning. The bowls of jook are HUGE and you can taste that it's not left to sit but fresh just made jook. Don't expect Westernish service here, it's all business and that's perfect for me. I'm in a Chinese casual eatery, not a steakhouse.

Went with fellow yelper Judy H. on her recommendation. WOW! Special Ginger 1/2 Chicken followed by Lamb and Veggie dish. Super fresh and inexpensive Chinese in a authentic hidden restaurant. Enjoy!

Coming from San Francisco, we have tons of traditional chinese food. I was feeling a bit sick and a local friend took us here. It was great for the price as HI has been somewhat higher than the states. I had a jook and it really hit the spots. The lady was really nice and chatted it up with us in chinese. A typical hole in the wall and i would go back again to try something else. My friend warned me that things were a bit salty to so we ordered it with less salt and that was just right.

I've always liked the food here. Tastes just like home cooked meals at Popo's (grandma's) house. It's a mom and pop shop where they serve home cooked Chinese food on the ugly looking plastic plates, just like Popo's house. Maybe that's why it's called "Family" Noodle House. Everything I've eaten here from jook, noodles, fish, pork, beef, veggies, all is good. I've never had a bad dish here. Best part? The prices are very reasonable. I wouldn't say cheap b/c some dishes are more than $10, but it is easy on the wallet. They also give you some roasted salted peanuts to munch on for free (refills free too) while you wait for your food. Only thing I really don't like about this place is that the tables and floors are always greasy dirty feeling. They have really nice granite-like tabletops, however, it doesn't have the shiny smooth feel. It has more of a sticky, cruddy, gritty feel - like old stale oil. The condiment basket of chili oil, shoyu, salt and pepper is covered with caked on oil grit. That's why I took off a star. Just make sure you don't eat any food that spills on the table! The durable Chinese plastic dishes they use are sometimes stained brown (just cuz it's been used a lot), but it's clean - no greasy feel or crud on it. Other than that, the food is excellent, and the service is always friendly! Just like Popo's house! Except Popo isn't there telling you to eat up every single grain of rice in your rice bowl!

Realign your expectations. This is no Panda, nor it is Chop Suey. It's not General So-Not-Authentic, and not the obligatory (hyperbolic adjective) - (generic name of a place) ie Royal/Golden/Exalted/Jade/Tired/Weeping/Anxiety - Garden/House/Palace/whorehouse/farm/basement/dungeon. If the people outside are to be taken seriously, you'd probably feel threatened and turn your gentrified ass around. There's the obviously-educated-at-one-point-trilingual-young dude, who, sleeping on a 25cent beach mat, seems to be happier and more content than all yall walking condescending contradictions of people. Ignore his shouting sometimes, as we all need to see intermittent bouts of schizophrenia, and DUH, he's not yelling at you. No worries, bro. Slumming is cool, but ignoring obvious symptoms of tortured humanity is even COOLER. There are two entrances (almost) to this place, and near the back is a crackhouse. Fully functional too ohmygod, for those of you who want to experience this fine life we're all trapped in. Better than realigning is to simply drop all expectations. Sit down, wipe off your table with the napkins and dip into Lamb Noodles. Or whatever noodles. Listen to the namesake. And use the chili oil. That hellish oil and sediment looking stuff. Use a lot of it. You'll pay tomorrow. But whatever; that's not even a problem compared to the folks just 5 feet away outside. I swear if you come in with your black-clad friends, iPhone this, and check-in that, decked out with a fedora, The Girl With The Dragon Tattoo layered clothes, and Skrillex haircut, you'll be smiling and elbowing your friendly gawking Asian table neigbors soon. TLDR GET THE NOODLES, GET THE CHILI OIL. GET MONEY. (cuz it's cheap. what, you think I slipped in some phrase just because it sounds cool and relatively updated? pshhhh then you aren't reading my reviews much huh?)

Wandered into Family Noodle House since I've never been here before and I have passed it so many times. it is a small hole in the wall place that is in a building with many fish, meat and vegetable vendors right across from Oahu Market on Kekaulike St. I decided to get the House Special on Cake Noodle after finding a spot to sit. I didn't know what to expect in the house special so after I got it I had to go rummaging through the ingredients that I could see. Seems like it is Cake Noodles with Char Sui, Intestines, Broccoli, Shrimp, Chicken, Beef, Carrots, Cabbage, Choi Sum, Squid, Onions, and I found a Star Anise in it. All seemed good except the intestines since I am not too much a fan of intestines but it tasted okay so I ate it I will pretty much eat anything anyway. The dish was nice and steamy hot and the sauce seemed a bit pale colored but was not bad although maybe not the best I ever tasted still I'd go back again to try some other dishes. Parking of course being Chinatown is limited to the parking structures around the area. The seating is about 8 tables two which can accommodate a party of 6 or so. They have a interesting garden picture thingy on the wall with some plants mixed in so at least there is something to see inside.

Sadly the special ginger chicken was slightly spoiled.

Terrific hole in the wall place in Chinatown. The place is a little hard to find if you aren't sure what you're looking for and the sign isn't that big. It is on the corner of N King St and Kekaulike St past that open market thing. Look for the fish market ( yelp.com/biz_photos/wu6T… ). I dig their jook (Chinese rice porridge) - specifically the fish fillet or the dried scallop and lean pork one. They use lots of fresh young ginger and white pepper to give it lots of flavor. The bowl is huge and there's usually plenty to take home and enjoy later. The other soups are pretty good too, but know that 'pork', 'beef', or 'chicken' can mean just about any part of said animal. Service is quick and efficient and prices are low, like any good divey Chinese place. There aren't many tables and it can get a little crowded.

This is an authentic "hole in the wall" so to speak. It's grungy and nothing matches-that's the beauty of the place. The food is excellent. I've traveled all over - China, NY, Toronto etc. and I'd choose this place any day. They make the best Won Tun Min outside of Kowloon. their wun tun are made with shrimp and pork and the noodles are the real thing - not the ersatz ramen gooey stuff. Their hom gnee chow fun is also very good. One of my favorite places
(5)J S.
It's a good place to go when you want Chinese food but Panda isn't really what you have in mind. Restaurant food with very reasonable price. You can order to share or just a bowl of noodle soup. I have seen lots of people order steamed fish fillet with onion and ginger. On top of that, the owners are super super friendly and nice! Highly recommended!!

The nerve of this restaurant! This restaurant put in a gratuity without authorization. I specifically remember because I ask for change for a $5 bill after I paid with my credit card and she just handed me one dollar back expecting I leave her 4 dollars. I told her I just wanted change meaning I wanted 5 one dollar bills back. she complied and I left the change on the table and that was the end of it until I saw my credit card statement. I have notification of any charges sent to my phone and it showed that a charge of $27.06 was made but my credit card statement shows $32.06 was debited.

Came along this place when my dad was visiting...we love to try new things so we walked in and ordered the Shoyu pig and intestines and the Peanut Pigs feet. It's was so delicious that even my 1 year old daughter liked it. Would definitely recommend it to friends.

This restaurant boss said the yelp is boss editor before, now can't edit, but now not delivery。

I never expect a fancy and clean restaurant when I go to a Chinese restaurant especially in Chinatown, any Chinatown, I have been to Hong Kong, New York, Vancouver, San Francisco and Oakland. They are all the same so what I am expecting is good food and is tasty and inexpensive. Family noodle is just that, We popped in for a light meal after shopping for ingredients for my salsa and didn't want to go to a fancy place and wait for lunch. It was quick and easy and inexpensive. If you are not a neat freak, you might be able to handle this place otherwise you might want to pass.

So it was 4:20pm. We called because the yelp page says they deliver. We asked for delivery and the lady straight up said "NO!" real quick. Certainly did not make me feel like part of a "family". Its not the fact that they dont deliver we are upset about, but it's the way she responded to us.
