Dim Sum Club 點心薈
@dimsumclub_sf is where the party’s at because they serve authentic dim sum all day! The menu is huge and has all the classics, in addition to it being delicious and afffordable! The portions are big enough to share and being around $5-$9 each. It’s definitely worth checking out! They don’t speak much English though so best to order from the paper menu!
Delicious dim sum. Get the pork gyozas. Juicy and plump—-never had it this big! Everything so fresh the rice noodles, the shrimp dumpling, bbq pork buns, everything Order anything and it will be delicious!
Ming's Diner
Absolutely delicious vegan Chinese food. High quality ingredients and really flavorful. I also love the old vibe of the place, a nostalgia for what San Francisco used to be. The couple working here is very humble, generous and kind. It’s truly a neighborhood gem.
No thrills local spot we always come to for our family dinners. Solid food, decently cheap prices and almost always has seats available! Only negative is they charge you more for paying with credit card!
Kingdom Of Dumpling
Came the other night with a few friends! It’s a tiny restaurant with 5-6 tables. Can get stuffy when packed especially with the kitchen just a couple feet away and one window for ventilation. Food was decent, we ordered Shanghai soup dumplings, pan fried Shanghai dumplings, napa cabbage boiled dumplings, salt&pepper chicken wings, fried chive dumplings, spicy wontons and noodles. The dough was slightly too thick for all dumplings but you can tell it’s handmade! Chicken wings were crispy but lack flavor depth. Noodles had good chewiness, sauce was a tad oily. Chilli wantons were good! I wanted so badly for it to be good because of the positive reviews. Maybe we went on an off-night but we weren’t impressed by the food? But we’re still willing to go back again if we’re in the area. Give it a try!! Was about $27-30 per pax from the food+tip.
Ordered delivery. To my unpleasant surprise, the "crispy chicken wings" were swimming in a sea of extremely sugary liquid. The xo beef chow fun had good flavor and mix of veggies but verrrrrrry little beef. I thought they forgot it at first. No excuse for such an incredibly stingy portion of beef.
Happy Family Gourmet Inc
A street food kind of place, small and comfortable. We had so many dishes and I don’t know the real names but there are pictures of all. Fish dumplings, they are delicious! Mixed with herbs. Soup dumplings with pork! Scrumptious! One of my favorites Beef roll, thin slices with veggies and herbs, crispy outside and full of flavors on the inside There is a pizza like dish with beef inside sliced thin and tender The fried rice is made to order, just like everything else and the wait was worth the time
Wow!! What a surprise as we’ve eaten at many, many restaurants in the area but somehow overlooked this incredible Shantung style family run restaurant. We had three dishes, the Xian hemp cold flat noodles, cabbage pork dumplings and the smashed cucumber with peanuts. Each dish was just outstanding. The Xian dish had a cumin base and was soo fresh and delicious with sesame oil and was only moderately spicy. The cabbage pork dumplings were also outstanding as was the cucumber. Once we sat down the staff was extraordinarily friendly and welcoming but did not speak any English only mandarin and Shantungese. Yet they made us feel so welcome. This has to be one authentic Homestyle restaurant as we felt like we had walked into a family restaurant in China. It was fun and great experience so we’ll be back soon!!
Old Pier Hong Kong BBQ
My family likes to come back here for the good food!! It’s authentic. I love their soya chicken, soup, veggies and fish dishes. The combo set meals are such a great deal. I need to come back again!
Gosh, we had the $98 dinner for 6. Too much food, everything was really delicious. We had a duck, a whole fish and a bunch of other dishes including one called "saliva chicken." My Cantonese friend said they meant "mouth watering." $20/ea with tip.
House of Pancakes
The beef roll pancake was SO GOOD. Definitely coming back here, just for that. The veggie dumpling was okay (would not get again) and the rib hand pulled noodles was also delicious. Note: cash only!
House of Pancakes was one of the coziest & tastiest meals I’ve had in recent memory. The garlic green beans and the beef roll pancake were the most notable items for sure. So tasty!! The hand-pulled noodles were good as well, especially on a rainy day. The garlic green The food is what earned the five stars here. The service and ambiance were alright. I wouldn’t say either were notable. It took me a few tries to flag down a server to get water, but they were quick with the tea and with the food! Overall, I’d definitely come back here!
Szechuan Taste Restaurant 长江
TLDR: not fancy place but delicious food at reasonable prices We came in as a family of five and ordered a few items. They have this specialty pulled chicken that is very flavorful though a bit too many bones for my liking. The fish with tofu is a classic, the pork belly was soft and tender, full of flavor. They also gave us space in the fridge for our cake and gave us a knife and plastic forks and plates and didn’t charge a fee. It will not be the nicest place in terms of decor but the food and service make up for it. They also did not seem to charge us for rice. The bill came out to $150 after tip for five people including five items of food and rice (no drinks)
I had my (Chinese) husband order many times before and it was delicious. However tonight I made the call for take-out. When I arrived they didn't have my order so I ordered again and waited patiently. But when I got home my husband was pissed to find that the generals chicken was made with tiny scraps of chicken, double fried with batter to look bigger. The texture is like eating walnuts. I told my husband this always happens when I order Chinese food as a white-woman. I get screwed on portion size or not given a quality meal. If you must order here, have the person most fluent in Cantonese order so you receive a better meal.
Guilin Rice Noodles House
The parking around the area is limited. We visited on a Sunday afternoon, and the waitlist was incredibly long. We ended up ordering takeout, but still had to wait 20-30 minutes. We ordered the Cucumber Salad with Minced Garlic, House Special GRN, Hot and Sour Noodle Soup, and Marinated Combination Plate. Unfortunately, the cucumber salad was bland, and the sauce was not good either. Similarly, the combination plate was quite dry. On a positive note, the Hot and Sour Noodle Soup had a generous portion, and the flavor was authentically hot and sour. I didn't try other items from the menu, but based on what I ordered, I would say the food was decent, though not outstanding.
This is our go-to for guilin style rice noodles. We get takeout here at least once a month. The dry version travels better and comes with a small side of soup. Everything is very flavorful and the noodle texture is just right it's a bit chewy and bouncy. It is a bit expensive for a simple dish but that's the price you pay for living in the bay area.
Mr Szechuan
Good food that is conveniently open very late at night. Their beef noodle soup was okay as it was a bit bland, but if you're looking for something light, it might be for you. Their boba was surprisingly decent for being a restaurant and would highly recommend.
Super clutch spot for being one of the last places open, yet they don’t sacrifice quality. Greeted us with hot tea, the food came out fast, and it was delicious (favs: scallion oil noodles, mapo tofu, and best string beans I’ve had for a long time). And our server was friendly and interacting with us.
Win's Restaurant
The fried rice (chicken) here is really good. They have wings which are pretty good too. Simple but still good. But don't like their noodle dishes. Service is ok, not too but on the wait time. Prices are ok. Hard to find parking sometimes.
TLDR: quality items at reasonable prices, under new ownership We love their full soy sauce chicken, it is so moist and delicious. The red tofu with pork was also tasty with a nice gravy that goes well with white rice. The garlic pea sprouts had plenty of flavor and not too oily. I would highly recommend the chicken !!
Smile House Cafe
HK style cafe with good menu selection variety. But wasn’t too impressed with their baked pork chop flavor. Was comparing a bit to the cafe on Noriega. Would still return to try their other dishes though. It was quite a wait for a Sunday lunch so be sure to factor that in when visiting.
Service is good, they have friendly workers there. The atmosphere is good for fast food Chinese food. 茶餐廳style. Food is ok. There are a variety of food options.
