North South Seafood - San Bruno

I remember coming here as a kid many years back with my cousins after doing outdoor activities. I always wanted to taste the food here again, I finally had a chance to do so today. Their service was always welcoming and sincere. The foods I ordered today were Sizzling steak and scallops platter, honey walnut prawns, and salt and pepper chicken wings. Everything was delicious and I was surprised we finished everything today. Usually we order too much food but today we conquered everything:

Tasty without over doing the flavors like some Americanized versions of Chinese food.

This is not your typical Chinese Restaurant where you're served with MSG loaded food, or cheap fried rice or Noodles. Instead, this is a local family owned restaurant where the focus is on the traditional comfort food without the fancy display, no use of MSG; just good ingredients and made with lot of TLC. The Chef here works solo so if you're in a hurry this place won't work well as the dishes were prepared one at a time . All the food we have was done just perfect. Their soup of the day was done just right. Their Bitter Melon Egg, Garlic Crab, and Egg Plant was excellent.

First of all, I'm Chinese, born in China. This is one of the best and most authentic Chinese restaurant you can find in the bay area. That includes all the Chinese restaurant in ChinaTown. Most of the menu item probably doesn't strike you as the typical Chinese food but that's because they're actual food that Chinese people make at home. Not the fake American sweet and sour pork stuff. Highly recommend their eggplants.

A small family operate and own restaurant... Great price, chef and family style of cooking. Very generous portion of food. I can't find things to complaint... :
