Dong Lai Shun is very popular in Beijing, with a 100 year-old history and locations all over. The restaurant, whose name translates to “Peace from the East”, is now one of the most authentic places to get Chinese cuisine in Mountain View.

You'll feel like you've hopped a plane to China as soon as you step through the doors at this authentic restaurant. Admire the furniture, the glass work, and other traiditonal touches before exploring the extensive menu. For a truly special experience, try a hot pot meal with your choice of ingredients, like sweet potato slices, napa cabbage, oyster mushrooms, Kobe beef, and scallops in a simmering soup base. If you're looking for something a bit more familiar, you'll enjoy meals like Kung Pao Chicken and Mapo Tofu. Pair your lunch or dinner with a stiff cocktail, a glass of wine or something sweet for dessert.
