Review Title: Great food that's worth the bill!
My Rating: Thumbs Up!
My Opinion: The decor may be a funny mish-mash of upscale items and the name may strike as odd, but do not be fooled! The "i" in i-Restaurant is the direct English translation for "love", in Mandarin Chinese.. basically, they hope you'll love their food! And the food has been consistently good here, every time I've gone in.

I'm not really sure where to start with their menu. They offer a huge selection of entrees and sides, being vegetarian, I recommend their hot and sour soup (best of any Chinese restaurant I've ever had- seriously!) and the coconut taro dish. Whoever is the head chef here has a great sense of being able to bring out distinct flavors, and their plates aren't drowned in too much soy sauce or oil, which is a problem at a lot of Chinese joints I visit.

As for the parking, do not shy away! There is more in the back, more than meets the eye from Stevens Creek- they're at the corner of Stevens Creek and Blaney. I highly recommend a visit to i-Restaurant if you're looking for a nice lunch or dinner out.

Review Title: Agreed I-Restaurant is a Good Eat
My Rating: Thumbs Up!

My Opinion:
My ol' Kung Fu school, Wing Lam Kung Fu, just had a reunion there in honor of Sifu Wing Lam's 60th birthday and it was a rocking good 958 course meal. I'm sure at least 950 of those courses are optional. They have a broad menu and should appeal to both people who are looking for more adventurous (but not too adventurous... no scorpions or anything like that) traditional dishes as well as people who just want some good fried rice.

They treated our school very well. I left with a very favorable impression of this place!
