David Fong's

David Fong's Restaurant has been serving Chinese-American cuisine since 1958. Dining Room, 2 Full Service Bar Lounges, Take-out, Banquet Room. Born in China. S.
(994)

Our story began with David Fong Sr. Immigrated to North Minneapolis. Began working in his father and mother's restaurant, the Moy Cafe. Joined and faithfully served in the U.S. Army during the Korean Conflict. Met and fell in love with Helen in Los Angeles. After they married, they moved to Minneapolis. With a growing family, they decided to start their own restaurant business. They drove south on

Lyndale Ave. from North Minneapolis. They were looking for a commercial rental in Richfield, but missed it and ended up at 98th St. and Lyndale Ave. in Bloomington. About to turn around, they saw a For Rent sign. Upon inquiry, they sealed the deal. Their small and modest venture began in 1958. They moved to its present location in 1966. At David Fong's Restaurant, 9329 Lyndale Ave. S., Bloomington, MN 55420, 952-888-9294. Proudly serving customers and our community since 1958.

A big shout-out goes to MPLS ST. PAUL Magazine for mentioning David Fong's Restaurant of Bloomington, naming us as part of the restaurants in the Twin Cities that changed the way we eat, in the Feb. 27, 2023 online edition. Thank you for remembering us for our community focus.

If it were plates instead of stars on the First Avenue wall, these are the 50 names we would paint in homage. The following are restaurants—some long gone, others still here—that have made an impact on the Twin Cities dining scene.
