" Redwood Bistro is a fantastic place for anyone craving authentic Chinese food! The flavors are bold, and they have an incredible array of dishes that you wouldn't find at typical Americanized Chinese spots. The Chongqing style beef is a must-try; it's bursting with flavor. The ambiance is casual and welcoming. However, the service could be quicker during peak times. Still, I highly recommend it! " (*Curated Review*)

" I’ll admit it took me quite a while to visit Redwood Bistro despite hearing great things. After finally stepping in, I realized what I was missing. The restaurant specializes in homemade Chinese dishes, and it shows! The flavors were robust, and every bite was delightful. A little slow on the service side, but the flavorful food made up for it! Can't wait to come back for more. " (*Curated Review*)

" I’m someone who enjoys a good family meal, and I can say Redwood Bistro provides just that! The atmosphere is homey and inviting, like dining at a friend's house. The food has been consistently good across my visits, especially the spicy noodles. However, I noticed the service can sometimes be a touch slow during busy hours. " (*Curated Review*)

" We stumbled upon Redwood Bistro while searching for a cozy spot for lunch. The menu caught my eye with its variety of authentic options. I ordered the Kung Pao chicken and some steamed dumplings. They were flavorful but could have used a bit more spice. The staff was friendly, and I could see the chefs working hard in the kitchen. I will return to try their famous spicy noodle soup. " (*Curated Review*)

" I tried Redwood Bistro for the first time last week and was blown away by how fresh the ingredients tasted. The fried rice was one of the best I've had in the area; it wasn't overly greasy and was packed with flavors. I felt welcomed by the staff during my visit. I would definitely recommend it!

" Redwood Bistro is a must-visit if you're looking for authentic flavors without the uptight dining experience. The vinegar chicken served with a side of noodle soup was incredible! Portions are quite generous, and the best part is how welcoming the staff are. I appreciated their recommendations, and I definitely plan on coming back for more! " (*Curated Review*)

" I had a mixed experience at Redwood Bistro. The first time I enjoyed the authentic dumplings and the friendly staff. However, during my recent visit, the chicken wings were undercooked and the service was a bit slow. I believe in giving second chances, so I'll be back to see if they can improve.
