Sat Sept 28 2024. Ordered the Steamed Soup Pork Dumplings, Shanghai Style Pan-Fried Pork Buns, Signature Crab meat Claypot rice, and Chinese yam with Black Fungus. The Steamed Soup Pork Dumplings had good pork but the dumpling wrapper was quite thick and elastic which was different. I was not too sure about it but the inside was good. The Shanghai Style Pan-Fried Pork Buns were a decent introduction for someone who has not had this style pork bun before but it was very average of the pack for this bun. The Signature Crab meat Claypot rice did not have as much crab meat as anticipated however the flavors were very aromatic and pleasant. The claypot rice inside was nice and crispy too as we got to that part of the bowl. And finally, the Chinese yam with Black Fungus was a great idea for a plate of greens to add to your order. These yams were a good quality and the Black fungus was smooth and soft. I would definitely recommend this location for larger group sizes than just 2 in order to take advantage of the variety of dishes on offer and because the price to portion ratio feels slightly to be desired. I want to say this was an isolated experience but we were seated in the far corner of the back patio and it appeared the waitstaff was almost a two person show, one waitress and her manager. Our table was missing water glasses, water, napkins and saucers. It became a constant struggle to get the waitress and the manager’s attention to retrieve these items for us. This appeared to be a semi busy day with 60% table occupancy. My understanding was that this was a newly opened restaurant but it seems they need more staff to serve tables, especially for on a weekend. I hope improvements will be made to service.

We had a great dinner here—ordered the basil beef, boiled wontons in chili oil, steamed barbecue pork buns, and the steamed shrimp har gow dumplings. Everything was SUPER tasty, though the boiled wontons in chili oil were not my preference. Barbecue pork buns and shrimp har gow were hot and soft, very fresh! We thought it would be nice if the basil beef had the option to come with rice, but it was delicious on its own. I am really glad that noe valley finally has a dumpling restaurant! Also, dogs are allowed for those wondering, and there is a TON of outdoor seating in the back in a really nice setting.

Sweet and sour chicken was outstanding. The place is a little pricey but tasty. Limited seating makes dining in a problem when it’s raining. Also, wouldn’t hurt the female cashier to be slightly friendly to customers JM2C. In contrast, shout out to Alex who was super nice and friendly recommending his favorites on the menu. Cheers!

We drove up here from the South Bay with a friend to eat here after seeing a video on Instagram about their Double Happiness meal (fancy fried fish sandwich with caviar). We arrived at 11:30AM, and were surprised that immediately thereafter two other parties entered too. A good sign for a place to have a solid contingent of customers right when it opens. We ordered the aforementioned Double Happiness meal, sweet and sour chicken rice plate, tingly fried chicken sandwich combo with hot and sour soup, jasmine tea soda, and pineapple tonic water. The sandwich was quite good, it’s too bad we live so far!

They were super nice and brought me hot tea right away while I was still viewing the menu. It was rainy so I really appreciated that All the food was absolutely delicious and fresh and came out so fast! I did arrive at 12pm so there was basically nobody else at the time. They also brought me ice water. Highly recommend, will definitely be frequenting this place more!!! Edit: they also boxed up my leftovers for me and were again super communicative!

Hello there family. If you are looking for a good Chinese restaurant that has some good food I encourage you to check out Punjab. This food is really good. If you stop by and let them know that Pastor Dre sent you.

Went in on a Saturday night! Partner and I got the orange chicken over rice and the green bean and chicken over rice. Food was piping, hot and fresh. not overly salted as well. There are indoor tables for seating.

I visited E & J with high hopes of trying their pan-fried noodles, but unfortunately, my experience was far from satisfactory. Firstly, when I called to place my order, the worker on the phone seemed impatient and unfriendly, clearly annoyed by my questions. Despite this, I decided to give them the benefit of the doubt and proceeded with my order. Upon picking up my food and returning home, I eagerly dug into the pan-fried noodles, only to be met with sheer disappointment. The noodles had a watery consistency that was far from appetizing, and the taste was completely bland and unremarkable. Overall, I regret spending my money here and would strongly discourage anyone else from doing the same. E & J failed to meet even the most basic expectations, and I will certainly not be returning. Save your time and money and look elsewhere for a better dining experience.

The most friendly service with huge portions of delicious Chinese takeout, including free egg soup! This has become one of my favorite spots on 24th, and I highly recommend it for anyone looking for a reliable takeout spot.

The Lady Who Usually serves me is a really sweet lady. She is also quick, but not rushed so I have never experienced any problems with any orders. They have been in the neighborhood for awhile and I like giving my business to them as. They are the only Asian restaurant of their type for quite some distance.

I order the Mongolian Beef with Rice Lunch Special. Good place to get a quick Chinese meal, very close to the general hospital on the corner of 24 street and Potrero.

I love this place. Good and affordable food
