    The greatest Chinese food in the area and affordably priced. Unbelievable. Shocked in the best way.

    Still the best Chinese food in the area. I've been coming here for over 10 years. Always fresh and tasty. Like I said in my review from 2013...I'm Chinese. I know good Chinese food.

    I have been eating at Hunan Cafe since it started, when it was run by an elderly couple whom I always found pleasant and truly excellent at the stove. They have since retired but the man trained and left the restaurant to his son and his son's wife and they do a wonderful job as a two-person team, just like their predecessors. I like this. Most recently they remodeled and upgraded the restaurant interior to look and be spartan clean, modern, and very white. While I miss the framed photos of fellow filmmakers and regular patrons such as myself, I have to admit the place looks great now. Good job, you two!! So, on to the food-- I've eaten many dishes here and almost always return to one, Chicken With Broccoli. I don't know what the secret sauce is here but it's as addictive as crack cocaine. A simple dish of cut broccoli spears with sliced thin white breast meat cooked well, all doused over in the light and clear brownish sauce, you taste the savory flavors of garlic and soy etc. It's really a magical dish created by the father and the tradition and recipe have been carried on by his son here; every time I've opted to do it with the other proteins - shrimp, beef, or pork - I find it to not quite level up to the experience with chicken. I love to ladle the chili oils and hot mustard over it all and mix it in with their excellent, fluffy, white rice. They also make it with a garlic sauce I enjoy too on occasion, just to break up my old habits... Recently some friends and I ventured away from the staple and found one particularly delicious dish: Fried Rice With Twice Cooked Pork. Wow! Very good, especially the chewy seasoned pork ribbons... the rice, while good, felt a tad over cooked perhaps as I like it a bit fluffier, but it too was good. The General Zaos' Chicken we have is a tremendous miss for me and had an odd lingering taste that brought soap to mind. The chicken seemed overly battered some too. Just not my thing, I guess. A new addition to the menu is a Thai Drunken Noodle which we elect to do with shrimp. The shrimp are fine but it's all accompanied by a more spaghetti like noodles and, while pleasant and tasty, it does not knock my socks off. Hey, I live and eat in our version of Thai Town weekly at the very best Thai restaurants in all of California, so I have a particularly high standard set for Pad Thai, Pad See Ew and Drunken Noodle... like it with the flat noodle more than "lo mein style." This new dish here is good, so try that too. By and large I recommend you rush over to Hunan Cafe for their remarkable Chicken Broccoli and wonderful fried rice. Also, the foil wrapped chicken appetizer is superlative, as are most all of the appetizers. Tell them Kevin sent you!

    Delicious. It could be a lot spicier for Hunan food, but I understand they need to have less spice for Americans. Great quality.
