Uncle Chung’s Szechuan: Reviews & Ratings
Excellent food options, especially Wor Wong Tong soup. Service is timely and friendly. Full bar. Very clean restaurant and restrooms. Easy parking. Bottom line best value within west contra costa area.
Food is delicious especially their Princess Chicken and Szechuan eggplant. We're glad they continue to operate as we were told that they are closing down their business awhile back. Yolanda, the owner is very friendly and super nice. The employees are courteous and friendly. The place is clean and quiet.
Been going here since they opened in the 80's! Great food, service, and atmosphere! Food is consistently good and the service is impeccable! Never disappoints! I highly recommend it for authentic Chinese Food served with love and care!
Been going here since i was a kid, and my family even longer than that. Some recipes have changed over the years but the quality is still good and service always amazing.
Our entire family loves Uncle Chung's restaurant, which has operated in Pinole for decades. The food is delicious and this a great place for dinner, bday parties and banquets! Always excellent service too.
The food is always so yummy! Great customer service. They also have a good banquet menus. I have used this place for a baby shower reception and it was a hit! I had shrimp chow fun and lemon chicken in my last order. Both were so good!
*** Vegetarian Review *** Uncle Chungs is in my top two Chinese restaurants. Why you ask? They offer vegetarian meats, the service is super friendly, and as a bonus, they have a full view of the city and bay. Vegetarian Chicken Salad (Grade A+) - the dressing is delicious and the breaded fried "chicken" pieces are amazing. Crunchy and not oily. Everything sits on a bed of fried rice noodles and shredded lettuce. Tip - if you order out, ask for the sauce on the side. Vegetarian Princess Chicken (Grade A+) - another must order and always consistent. I've been ordering this dish for at least 20 years and it only gets better. Lightly breaded fake chicken nuggets in a lightly sweet and lightly spicy sauce. Tip - get the sauce on the side if you order this to go. Vegetarian Lemon Chicken (Grade A+) - Lightly breaded vegetarian chicken patty, cut in slices over a bed of lettuce and lemon sauce. Tip - Sauce on the side ... you get it. Overall, whenever I'm in the area, we will go here. Everyone is so friendly here, the view (especially at night) is eye catching, and their vegetarian menu is one of a kind.
