My go to for Singapore style noodles since Sam Wo closed. Silky (not curry powder gritty), rice noodles just past al dente, well-seasoned with good wok hei.

After walking around Chinatown, around 11:30 we stopped in for some authentic dim sum which was delicious. Inside the place was very tranquil and relaxing. Even when it started getting busier for lunch it was still not noisy. Service was great and attentive but not interfering. Efficiently bringing our various dim sum dishes and refilling our water. They had a printout of the dishes ordered at the end of the table and would check off when it was placed on the table. We chose 2 orders of Shrimp Dumplings, 2 of Steamed BBQ Pork Buns, 1 of Pork Siu Mai, 2 of Green Onion Pancake, 1 of Pork Potstickers, 1 of Veg Egg Rolls, 1 Black Bran Spareribs, 1 Sesame Ball with Red Bean Paste and 2 Hot Teas. Each order usually consisted of 3-4 items per basket. The dumplings, pork buns, pot stickers and siu mai were tender and tasty! The onion pancakes and egg rolls were very crispy and delicious! We nicely finished it off with a Sesame Ball with Red Bean Paste. They were nicely sweet and reminded me when I used to go to Chinatown for dim sum with my family back home. Great food, service and atmosphere! Worth a visit!

This restaurant was amazing!!! Delicious authentic Chinese cuisine!!! Their assortment of dim sum was soooo good! The roasted duck was the juiciest perfect duck I have eaten in my life! I know it seems exaggerated but, its the truth! The staff were very friendly and the service was excellent. I met a lady who might have been the manager name Lily and she was the sweetest and friendly lady. I definitely recommend this dimsum spot and I promise you will not regret it!!! 😊

Top 5 dim sum place in SF. Good deal, great food, nice clean area! The wontons are flavorful and delicious. The steam flat noodles are also some of the best in the city.

Their chung fun is the best I've had. We got the pork one with mushrooms and sprouts. The texture is silky and chewy. Will come back just for that. The HK milk tea was smooth and you can ask for less sweet. The wontons and shrimp dumplings were decent. Be warned about their lemon ice tea though. The waiter insisted they use homegrown lemons that are more "fragrant" but the fragrance gives a really off-putting aftertaste. We order lemon cha all the time at different places and this is not it. Will come back to try their other dishes and hopefully early enough for their breakfast sets.

Walking through Chinatown made us crave a comfort food, wonton soup. Hon's looked like it would foot the bill. There is an extensive menu with a variety of traditional Chinese dishes, but we specifically came for wonton soup and scallion pancakes. The wonton were very good and as we had anticipated. The noodles were also a nice texture and thickness. The broth though wasn't as flavorful. I liken it to tasting like dishwater if I knew what dishwater tasted like -- bland and an amalgamation of whatever was thrown in it. Nonetheless, the wonton and noodles were good enough to make up for it. The scallion pancakes are always a must to order when they are on the menu and these didn't disappoint. Crisp, but soft and chewy. The perfect accompaniment. We also ordered a salt and pepper tofu appetizer which was okay. We prefer it to have more fried garlic. Not bad though. Service was efficient and helpful. We ordered right away and the food came out promptly after. They are attentive with refilling water and fulfilling any requests. The wait time was also not bad even on a Sunday. They seem to manage and turn tables quickly. Overall a good experience. Only a more flavorful broth would give this review 5 stars.

We didn't come here at rush time so easily to get a table but if come here at busy time; be prepared to get in line. Store is small but really cozy and clean. Foods are delicious and well seasoned. It really gives a taste of a traditional Chinese noodles. Highly recommended. Take out also a good option if you are in rush.

Nice restaurant with authentic Hunan dishes. The smoked pork belly tastes really good 💯😊 Good luck with the fortune cat too! 😺

When I'm anywhere else, outside of San Francisco, and someone says, "hey you wanna get Chinese?"...it's places like this that I'm thinking of. I can't for the life of me understand why no one can make good Chinese food except Chinese restaurants in this city. The dumplings were delicious and the garlic chicken over steamed rice was excellent. The ambiance was basic, and the service was pretty formulaic. He literally just took my order and ran my card. I wouldn't go so far as to say they're rude, just not particularly welcoming or social. But then again, I came here specifically to get delicious Chinese food and that's what I got. If you're looking for a cozy, delightful setting this isn't it, but if your priority is really good Chinese food then absolutely you're in the right place.

I found this place through Google Maps recommendations and I want to tell you that it was a unique experience since we arrived. It is the best Cantonese restaurant in San Francisco. We arrived around 8 pm and we didn't have to wait. They took us to the underground part, which is an experience since it seems like you are entering another city. The service was excellent because the waiter was very patient since my English is not the best and he helped me choose the dishes. They welcomed us with tea, which they were very careful to serve. Afterwards, we ordered the duck, which was delicious, and the prawns with honey walnuts, which I also highly recommend because the combination of flavors is wonderful. The dessert was also delicious. Overall, I highly recommend the restaurant because you will eat very well and in a unique way.

Was in town for a weekend. The hotel manager highly recommended this spot. The service was really good. Everyone was very friendly. We didn't have a reservation,it was raining and the place was packed. Fortunately there was just two of us so we were sat at small table for two with no problem. Food was better than most of the Chinese food places we've been to in the last several years. The fried rice actually had flavor and was one of the best I've had in recent times. It was Golden Rice. The lemon chicken had good flavor but was overcooked and chewy. Our favorite was a house specialty called Three treasures with black bean sauce. It was chefs kiss,top tier! Would go back just for that and the rice.

Four Kings - not worth the hype, sorry! I understand why it has high ratings, but most of the positive reviews seem to come from non-Asian or non-Cantonese diners. I wouldn't even consider this 'fine dining.' The only reason it was hard to make a reservation is that the restaurant is tiny, and they prioritize same-day walk-ins customers. so you HAVE to book a month in advance. Four of us went, and we were really excited to try it since a few of our mutual friends enjoyed the food here. The menu was interesting, offering a modern twist on Cantonese cuisine. However, the food was overly salted, and their signature squab dish came out undercooked, which was disappointing! Unfortunately, everything was just mediocre. Nothing stood out or was special. The idea of the concept is great but the execution wasn’t there. I'm sure you can find better Cantonese restaurants in Chinatown that offer better food than this one!

4/14/2025 - table for 2 After a wait of 2 hours (walk in) we enjoyed .. Green Beans - Good Eggplant - Good Cabbage - It was served cold so not my fav. Scallop vermicelli- OK Octopus skewers - a little chewy for my tastes. Chrysanthemum Tea - Loved it.

Taste of Hong Kong!! Only a short stay in SF after travelled from East coast. Dad and I have been craving for a good and authentic Chinese Canton meal. After looked at all the Google reviews of the whole Chinatown. We decided to go for this place and we made the right choice. The sizzling claypot dishes were hearty and delicious just what we needed for a cold day and the veggie stir-fry was so fresh and well cooked. Beef Chow Fun (rice noodle) was great with wok hey 鑊氣 My dad called it the best meal since we have been away from home for 2 weeks. And the price is very reasonable too. Most importantly we made friend with the lady boss, she is so welcoming and looked after us well. She chatted with us the whole time talk about everything just like an old friend. We felt like home eating at her place so we went back again second night. Highly recommended for people if you look for an authentic Cantonese place and don’t know where to go. This place has something other place may not have - 人情味 👍🏼👍🏼 多謝老闆娘🙏🏼

Don’t miss out on the absolutely most delicious Cantonese style Chinese food my family and I have ever eaten. The food prices are very inexpensive for as much as you get. The Chicken Chow Mein and the Chinese Broccoli With Beef are a MUST! These two dishes are by far the best we have ever eaten at any Chinese restaurant. We tried several dishes and only found chicken fried rice being average. Everything else was top shelf. The services is fantastic and I would recommend any party 4 or smaller to sit by the window so you can look out. Make sure if you’re anywhere near San Francisco to come eat at this gem!

Great space south of Market to grab authentic spicy Chinese food. From the egg rolls and meat pies, hot and sour soup, or special al la carte dishes, it is just special. Try the spicy eggplant or tofu for sure, add either a beef or shrimp plate too!

Here’s Henry’s Hunan is a family-owned gem that brings the authentic flavors of their hometown to life with their spicy signature dishes. We visited as a group of 16, including 5 kids, and were fortunate to get a table on a busy holiday weekend. For many of us, this was our first time trying traditional Chinese vegetarian food, and it did not disappoint. The green tea was incredibly soothing and paired perfectly with our meal. We started with appetizers: the onion cake and spring rolls, which were delicious, though slightly on the oily side. For the main course, we tried a variety of dishes: • Chinese greens: Simple yet packed with flavor. • Vegetarian chow mein: Perfectly cooked noodles with a great balance of spices. • Vegetarian fried rice with tofu: Light yet satisfying. • Kung Pao Tofu: Spicy, flavorful, and a favorite among the group. • Sautéed eggplant: Melt-in-your-mouth delicious. The portions are generous, and the food tends to be spicy, so be sure to let them know if you prefer less heat. The staff were amazing—friendly, attentive, and helpful—which made the experience even more enjoyable. We’ll definitely be coming back!

A small Cantonese restaurant offer a variety dishes. Very friendly service. Chicken mushroom clay pot rice was good. Fried fresh vegetable was tender and right seasoning.

Super friendly service. The food is great. The stir-fried beef rice noodle (gong chow au hor) is excellent. The noodles tasted very fresh and tender. The lady that served us told us the rice noodles and steamed rice rolls (chiang fun) are house made in the kitchen. The clay pot rice are very good too. Though be patient and prepare to wait because it is made to order. I forgot the leftovers when we left. The super friendly lady that served us chased us down a block away. Really going above and beyond. Thank you!

I ordered happy hour food delivery from here and was pretty satisfied with what I received. It’s nice that this place participates in the DoorDash happy hour promotions so that I can try multiple dishes for a late lunch or early dinner without having to go out and struggle to find parking on Irving Street. Cucumber salad: 3.5/5 The flavor was very garlicky. I didn’t really taste much vinegar or soy sauce. I think it would be better if it were less salty but still glad I ordered it, as the crispness of the cucumbers balanced out the meal. Dry sautéed string beans: 4/5 These string beans had pretty standard flavour, but they were longer than average and slightly undercooked. I still enjoyed them, especially since they were less greasy than what I’ve received from some other places. Iron pot fish filets: 5/5 The fish fillets were amazing with all the Sichuan spices and chili oil. If I dined in, I would likely ask them to increase the spiciness, but they still taste great at the default spice level.

Best fresh spicy fish in the bay area! Even better than some resturants in China! The fish is so tender and fresh. The fu qi fei pian was a little mid, but the spicy dumpling was amazing

Pros: quick service, decent food, rice noodles made fresh to order Neutral: quick meals served on paper plates, definitely not a place to impress a date.. Cons: dimly lit, some parts of the restaurant has an odor, sticky tables

The portion size are HUGE. I went another person, and we ordered two cheung fun and a seafood congee ($27ish with tip). We thought it was gonna be small, but it fed both of us to the rim. The food was amazing, and the price of it was very cheap also. However, do NOT expect good service and good atmosphere. You go here only for the food.
