Yes, I'm Asian and yes, I have lived in China for awhile. I get the fact that American Chinese is not exactly what you would eat in China. I would say though that of all the Chinese restaurants I have been to (and I'm tired of Panda Express), Silver Palace is very good! Our family has been going to the restaurant for about ten years now and every time we go we order the braised green beans along with another dish. The food and service are excellent! Bob and his staff are friendly and serve some pretty tasty food.
Pros: Great food and service
Cons: Probably not cheap food like Panda...

This is a great Chinese restaurant. It is pricey, but the exquisite food is worth every penny. The food is served as a group instead of individual plates. They have good soup, and all sorts of good chicken plates. The atmosphere is pretty laid back, and allows you to have a great time with family or friends.

The food is always good, very good prices, and a very laidback atmosphere. The service is great, very friendly, and personally I find it very refreshing that this is a Japanese restaurant that doesn't have its head up its @ss - they're not trying to be hip and trendy, and they're not making a fashion statement or trying to be chic with the decor or atmosphere. They make the best teriyaki and tempura, and thats all that matters here.
The complaint I always get whenever I bring friends is that there's no sushi - This is NOT A SUSHI BAR. I always get some sashimi (usually they bring out tuna and/or yellowtail) and its always fresh and tasty, though I admit its not as good as other places that actually specialize in raw fish.
But the point of going to Amachi is teriyaki and tempura. Their teriyaki sauce is just the way I like it - its not a thick syrupy consistency and its not too sweet, so it doesn't feel like you're eating pancakes and you actually get to taste your meat. I also recommend trying their shumai pork dumplings.
Pros: Delicious food with very good prices
Cons: Nothing! If you want sushi go somewhere else, if you want fancy go somewhere else.

Great little local place that is easy to miss, their sushi is fresh and delicious. The owner is so kind and is always helpful, should try to sit at sushi bar and with John as your sushi chef. There are always new waitresses that are college students and they are never organized. And the restaurant closes from 2:30-5 p.m. for lunch and they are closed every Monday, overall very much worth it.
You will not be disappointed.
Pros: Fresh sushi, great experience, sit at bar.
Cons: There are always new waitresses which are not organized

Fast, filling and well-priced. I always come here when I can't get to a full sushi/Japanese restaurant.
Almost any roll is good, warm dishes are pretty large and the service there is really nice.
I always recommend this place for anyone who has a jonesing for some sushi.

If you've never had Burmese food this is the place to go. Try the #48 its the Burmese version of chow mein and its delicious. This is the only place in Southern California that prepares Burmese cuisine and its wonderful. They have your basic Thai too!
Pros: Excellent Burmese selection
Cons: Service leaves much to be desired

This place has great tasting food. My favorite is the creamy fish or creamy shrimp. I dont believe anyone has anything close to having a dish taste so good. I highly recommend the creamy fish. Another great addition to this restaurant is the sushi bar, I was pleasantly surprised. It has a wide selection of sushi that puts others to shame.
Pros: Great Tasting FOOD
Cons: almost too many items to choose from

I agree with the previous reviewer. The food is not exactly gourment but very hearty and you get lots of it! They are very generous with their portions. If they get a container they will fill it to the brim! You can get any item for .99 cents or if you want you can get combo plates. They are usually pretty busy so their food stays quite fresh. You don't have to worry about the food being old because there is always a line of people (at least every time I go). That being said, they move you through really quickly and I have never had to wait very long.
