My favorite is Queen house in Mountain View Downtown. It's Chinese and located between Dana and Villa street on Castro Street, and very small restaurant next to a tiny Chinese video shop. Try hand-made taiwanese style noodle with soup, which costs $4 or $5. Fried-pork or chicken noodle, shreded vegi noodle, snow cabbage noodle are good. and hand-made won ton noodle is also recommended. Cold noodle dishes are good in summer. Spicy tan tan noodle is worth trying. Chow mein is rather ordinal and nothing special, but fried rice is not bad. Gyoza (pot sticker) is large and excellent. oh...I'm getting hungry again and I'm going to Queen house now...
