Besides being known for its’ appearance in the Rush Hour movie, it is a pretty unassuming restaurant in Chinatown. Traditional Chinese restaurant vibes and food. They have some photos of the cast back when they filmed the movie on the wall as well. The food is solid and I do not think you could go wrong here. The beef chow fun is not too saucy but still flavorful. The string beans have a decent crunch and the kung pao chicken is tender and delicious. I also need to call out how good the hot tea was. It reminded me of this dragon jasmine tea that I have loved in the past. We even got some to-go cups on the way out because it was just so good.

Now for my standard comments. The location is clean and well kept. Comfortable indoor seating. There is an upstairs that you can check out but another floor that is cloesd off as well.

Foo Chow Restaurant is an absolute must-visit, especially if you’re a fan of classic movies. This iconic spot is where scenes from Rush Hour were filmed, and you can really feel that nostalgic, old-school vibe the moment you walk in.

Beyond the movie history, the food is honestly so good. Everything tastes fresh, flavorful, and comforting, with generous portions that make the meal even more satisfying. The dishes come out hot and packed with authentic flavor, making it easy to see why this place has stood the test of time.

Whether you’re here for the Rush Hour memories or just amazing Chinese food, Foo Chow delivers on both. Definitely a place worth coming back to again and again. ✨

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

String beans are my favorite and the egg rolls are the absolute best. Perfect crunch. The jasmine tea to start is such a bonus. Cool seeing the Rush Hour history on the wall. Excellent stop for lunch and a great value.

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!

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!

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.
