Heard good things… Nice little Mom & Pop Chinese place. I thought the Chow Fun was very nice. Also enjoyed the Wor Won Ton. Orange chicken good. Coming back to try Potato Beef & Mango Chicken… then trying everything else! Service is good & staff pleasant

I come here about 1 – 2 times a week for lunch. Food i would rate a 4 just because there aren’t too many choices in south San Jose and this is better than most. My favorite lunch special is the Peppered beef. Is it authentic Chinese cuisine? Probably not. Does that make is bad. Absolutely not! Prices for lunch are fair and definitely satisfies the craving when I need something with rice!

This is my Go — To place when I’m at school. I have came here on numerous occasions and have ordered the Chicken Fried Rice and Combination Friend Rice and you get a good amount for the price you pay and it is very tasty. I have also ordered the Chicken Chow Mien but it is too greasy for my liking. The other item I have tried is the Won Ton Soup and it is SOOOOOOO GOOOOOOOD! I enjoy it so much when I order it, you have the option to add noodles or just have the broth and the won tons but I add noodles every time. With that being said my only complaint for the soup would be that they don’t give you a lot of broth and the noodles are a bit dry so more broth would help.

My first visit to this restaurant does not inspire a revisit. I don’t know what their process is but they lost my order. So, after 15 minutes of the little pager not going off, I went in to inquire. So, they had to request the order separate but still did not get it right. In the meantime, my lunch companion had nearly finished his lunch and I was running out of time so it had to be changed to «to go».
Ugh.

I like the tai curry chicken here. Typically good service and food, but today they lost my order and had to wait an extra 10 minutes. No big deal.

Young guy took my order of teriyaki chicken rice bowl to go and it was just plain chicken and no teriyaki sauce, nor was there a sauce container of it. Chicken was also undercooked. Overpriced for tasteless food

I was a regular customer but I’ll never go back. Fukee screwed up my to go order, my wife called to get a refund. They said we’d have to get in our car and drive back in the 100 degree heat to get a refund. I asked «can’t you just ask the cook if he screwed up the order to prove we’re not trying to pull one over on you guys, so we don’t have to drive back in the heat and you can just refund my credit card?» Ping (the owner) said «the cook admits he got your order wrong but you must bring the food back for a refund» then I asked «if the cook admits it, then why do you need the food?» Then ping says, «its our policy» This immediately made me think that the only logical reason someone who admits to giving the wrong order, would want the food that my wife was picking through back, would be to reuse the food! Disgusting, smh

I’m surprised by this place.
Came here for a quick lunch with the boss. He raves about this place. Sad to say, he was right.
It’s pretty tasty for the price. It’s fresh and great for my hour lunch. The food doesn’t take very long and their lunch specials come with a soup, rice, & the main entrée. You’ll spend less here that picking up some Panda Express.
I ordered their Mongolian Beef (which was recommended) and he got the String Bean Chicken (which is apparently the most popular). I enjoyed both. The fried rice was very good! Had a lot of flavor and complimented the beef well. I also liked the fact that it was a lot of meat and they didn’t just give me a ton of veggies. The hot & sour soup was pretty good as well.
The only issue I have is that the place didn’t seem very clean. Sticky dried soda on the counter, dirty tables. I just think they need to keep up with the cleanliness.
It’s good for a quick bite of Chinese Food.

So the Chinese place I usually go to was closed so this was the only one I found open on Sunday 10pm ! I ordered pad Thai which I’ve only liked from one other place may I add. Also got fried rice and sweet and sour pork… The customer service was great ! Very nice and the pad Thai is great I love it, but I was a little disappointed that there was only 2 shrimps in the whole thing. The sweet and sour pork was also good the meat was nice and tender and sauce wasn’t over done. The fried rice was also good as well but did lack a little flavor. Overall this place is pretty good I’ll be coming here again!

I like that they always use fresh ingredients and the portions are huge! However, their food is hit and miss. You’d either get really flavorful food or bland food. It’s never anything in between. If you do end up getting something too salty/​sweet/​etc., just order some steamed rice to balance the flavor.

Sometimes when you get food you aren’t expecting much, you look at a place off of the side of the road and say, «let’s just go there». This was one of those times, I did not have high expectations and just wanted some decent Chinese food. Fu-​kee executed two things which made my experience perfect.
1. Portions. It’s been a while since I have had a Chinese place serve me food and then I look at the others at the tables with eyes the say, «uhh, we’re sharing right?». When we received our fried rice, vegetable noodles, string bean chicken, and Kung pay chicken we all started digging in and unfortunately couldn’t finish all of it.
2. Delucious! It’s actually surprisingly weird how many places can get Chinese food wrong. Sometimes the noodles just taste weird or you question whether or not you are eating real meat. Fu-​kee nails thr taste, especially the string bean chicken and pork fried rice, and I loved all of it.
The service was also incredibly nice! The man working behind the counter always had a smile and seemed delighted to help us with anything!
Large portions + delicious = happiness!

Food was pretty good for the price! Lady taking orders was nice. Not a whole lot of people go in there, so it came out quick!
I recommend it, good, cheap, and fast!

Not as good as I remember.
New owners and new recipes.
The Chinese chicken salad was a disappointment, the lemon chicken was more egg yolk than lemon.
I did enjoy a few other dishes, but it was just okay.
The staff was friendly.

I stopped in for a lunch with my co workers. All my American co workers love this place. When you walk in, they have the menu right above the cashier. All the lunch specials were up on the board. Most of the menu items looked like a battered and fried meat item.
I thought I would be healthy so I selected the Chili Chicken lunch special with white rice for $ 7.75. It was pretty easy to order and they accepted credit cards.
I received a pager and waited at the table with my co workers. When I got my food, it was actually battered fried pieces of chicken in chili sauce.
I was a bit disappointed, but it was my fault for not asking how the chicken was cooked.
Next time I’ll ask to make sure.
