Sam Woo Village BBQ

Best. Roast. Duck. Also just about everything else on the menu. Try the XO string beans and the hot pot casserole.

I haven't been here in years!! I don't know why I fight against traffic to get my Peking Duck when I could just go here minutes from my house and not leave the valley. OMG....we ate our fill AND still had plenty for leftovers...to be eaten later that night LOL!!! The atmosphere here is nothing to write home about...you are there to eat good food not gawk at the aesthetic lol. The location was clean and service was quick, fast and a hurry! I won't take too long to come back.

This is rounded up for duck and experience. PARKING (4 stars) Even tho the parking might be difficult to get into, there's parking for you all around. You might need to wait a few minutes before someone comes out of the supermarket. SERVICE (4 stars for efficiency) This is a small restaurant with good service. You'll have to wait in a long queue on the weekend. Be prepared. They issue numbers by party number. The service is quick. Abrupt and efficient. Just as much as you wanted to eat, someone is waiting behind you. The waiters are doing their best to get everyone fed. FOOD MAPO TOFU (3 stars) I've made better mapo tofu at home. It is a thin, watered down version. With plenty of tofu, and a bowl of rice, it easily makes a good and affordable meal for two people. Or one very hungry me. MIXED WITH NOODLES (3 stars) My son liked it "okay", but it wasn't flavorful or specifically interesting with a generic sauce. The dish was recommended as best noodle dish. Probably a nostalgic favorite. ROAST PORK (4 stars) Was good. Great crispy skin. Very light flavor. Simple meat-only dish. BROCCOLI (3.5 stars) Very well cooked. But sauce wasn't great. Just out of the bottle, poured over. Still, with vinegar and soy sauce, the crunch is nice and fresh. ROAST DUCK (4.5 stars) My wife and son love duck. And they loved this duck. It was a ton of food for the "whole duck". (5 legs too) They both ate a ton, but we brought home a "whole duck" in leftovers. PAYING I was told that it was "cash only", but they accept credit cards now [maybe for dine-in only]. PRICE VERY AFFORDABLE There's plenty of food to take home as leftovers. Some coworkers get takeaway from here regularly. I can see why. LOCATION They're situated immediately next door to 99 RANCH. If you want to pick up groceries, bottled drinks, desserts, liquor - this is a one stop errand. If you can't find food at the hot buffet in the restaurant, supplement it with the hot buffet in the supermarket.
