Pretty good traditional Chinese restaurant. Of course mostly known for its appearance in the first Rush Hour movie. This is a great place to visit history while enjoying good food. You start off with Jasmine tea and then I tired the egg rolls and seafood soup to start off. I then got the Half crispy duck, orange chicken, shrimp and broccoli, house special chow mein, and sliced fish with red wine sauce. Orange chicken had good flavor and the red wine sauce has a good herb flavor to it. The red wine isn't as intense like other cuisines that reduce it into a sauce so it isn't overpowering. Parking is street parking and there are lots around too. First floor makes it very wheelchair accessible and great for kids/family

Food was amazing (large portions!!), service was fast and great. Hands down best chinese food I've had!!! You can park on the street for a few bucks or there's a parking area for $20 cash only. Definitely recommend!!

Great little place that's been around for decades. We went here for lunch and I had the best egg fu yung I've had anywhere in the country. Also bonus surprise, it's a filming location for the Jackie Chan movie Rush Hour.

Thought about it while thinking of Rush Hour scenes so I thought it would be cool to have lunch. Food was good and a good real live child hood memory while eating. Now if they was to stage Jun-tow as the cook that would def be dope!

I love our Chinese dinner at Foo-Chow Restaurant which was made famous for the 1998 blockbuster movie, Rush Hour with Jackie Chan as Lee and Chris Tucker as Carter. Of course, that's one way to celebrate the 27th anniversary when Rush Hour first premiered on September 18th, 1998. My parents and I really enjoyed the egg rolls, House Special Rice, and the eggplant the best! I can definitely remember the popular filming location in Chinatown forever!
