Happy Bakery
It’s called Happy Bakery but it’s mostly Dim Sum and food to go. I don’t eat much veggies but they have the best string bean chicken with tofu. This is a must-try! Dim Sum on the other side is also good with their Siopao & Sesame Balls. An order of combination over rice was only $6 but I guess inflation got in the way. Still worth coming for those string bean! 😋😋
Happy Bakery has many friendly people working there, and the dim sum and Chinese fast food are pretty good. The store has two sections. The section on the left is my favorite dim sum section. They have many different dim sum for the reasonable prices. The Chinese fast food section is more like Panda Express. You can see what you want, and they scoop it into the box. Both sides are quick and yummy!
T C Pastry
Decent for the price. The egg tart is flavorable but on the small side. Sweet tofu was ok The BBQ Pork bun was decent for the price
HONEST REVIEW: Service is quick, but quite often you will be rushed when ordering. You can expect your food just a quickly as you ordered, which is great though. Food is pretty good and sold at an unbeatable price. I used to get ha gow often, however, the quality for that changed and every shrimp ha gow variant i’ve tried has tasted stale. Their pork siu mai, steamed pork buns, and chicken turnovers are favorites of mine. This place will get you in and out quickly, and serve you some great food.
Yuanbao Jiaozi 元寶餃子
Yuanbao Jiaozi is a little unassuming northeastern Chinese style restaurant known for their freshly made dumplings. I'm not sure why they have the two ladies behind a window making dumplings. It seems more of a gimmick. We had the spicy house special noodles $15, cucumber salad $8, beef tendon $11, pork dumplings $12 and lamb dumplings $13. The food was OK. It tasted clean. Service was excellent.
Yuanbao Jiaozi is an absolute gem. Their freshly made boiled dumplings are next level, you can actually watch them being wrapped and cooked right in front of you. The whole place has a cozy, homey vibe that makes you feel like you’re eating in someone’s kitchen. You can’t book in advance, but just show up, write your name down, and wait, it’s totally worth it. The surprise highlight? The pig ear. Seriously, a real banger. Would 100% recommend.
Sun Maxim's
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!
Szechuan cuisine
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
Chang's Kitchen Restaurant
Chang’s Kitchen is delicious, cheaper, and FASTER than Sam Tung. As a Chinese person, I thought that their food was super authentic and reminds me of home and comfort— especially my top favorite Cantonese dishes. They nailed my favorite dish of the tomato beef pan-fried noodles. Portions are huge, prices are super comparable (almost all under $15 which you can’t find these days for a huge dish). Dishes come out hot, fresh, and FAST.
I am ecstatic that they finally reopened after a neighbors fire. This is my go to place for a quick Chinese food fix or causal dinner. Don't miss out on the salt & pepper fish, fried chicken and mushu wraps. Lisa always takes care of us. It's the most bang for your buck for sure😉 KennyG
San Tung
We came here on a weekend afternoon. The line was super long and we waited about an hour before getting in. The servers were very nice and fast. We had to sit on a big table with someone else, but that wasn’t an issue. They were able to recognize the dishes even though we sat together. The interior looks like a typical old Chinese restaurant, but you can tell that it was cleaned and taken care of. The food was served very fast and fresh. It’s crispy and just seasoned correctly and authentic. The price is so cheap considering the inflation. It’s popular for a reason. We ended up taking out a lot because we ordered too much. The portion was so big.
I've been here a few times, but the last time was before the pandemic. The food is as I remembered. The dishes are good. Everything came out hot and fast. I would say the longest wait time for one of our dishes was 10 mins. The parking situation is just like how I remembered it. Very limited. We circled a few times but eventually found parking a couple of blocks away. We ordered the popular dishes which includes the dry chicken wings, dumplings, garlic green beans, and the black bean noodles. We also ordered the fried fish. We thought the black bean noodles were on the salty side. Overall a solid 4 stars.
奈哥酸菜鱼 Nai brother Fish with pickled cabbage
For friends who can’t eat spicy food, the Rizhao Tomato Fish is really just right for my taste. The staff at the restaurant were also super friendly. The salted crispy chicken was very tender!”
i really like the soup base of peppercorn fish, quite light and no msg! the portion is also very generous for one person. i did not like the white rice, tasted very dry, but it was also completely okay to have the fish without the rice. overall a good experience!
QingShu Malatang & Nai Brother Fish
Delicious! Love the concept, all the ingredients were fresh and there was a ton of variety, and the final cooked soup was great! And it's reasonably priced (if you don't go too crazy). I got the green peppercorn broth with lamb, lotus, cabbage, and lots of mushrooms. Will definitely come back here to try all the other varieties.
a genuine gem in the sunset! Opens late (til 10pm), perfect for chilly nights that yearn for a hot bowl of soup. Price is by weight! It’s $14.99/lb, but you can definitely do less than a lb and have plenty. So, if you’re only craving a small bite - this spot is great. Notable favs: - Wide vermicelli glass noodle - Decent sauce bar (garlic, sesame paste, black vinegar, green onion) - free iced oolong tea - the beef rolls, cow throat, pork tendon I love hotpot, and to have a huge bowl of tomato broth with all of my favorite things for $12? A plate of duck wings for $3? in SF that’s unheard of, but QingShu’s got you.
New Fon Garden
I only ordered one time and I was satisfied. I have ordered from other nearby restaurants and they cant compared to this one. I wont get much into details but as a foodie and an avid cook ; It is recommended. This restaurant has good food.
This is a great family-owned restaurant. Very helpful and service is great. Food is delicious we have the pleasure of knowing this family. Great food and atmosphere.
林和順
This place is pretty bomb. You'll probably encounter a line outside the door. Only the roasted items are available right now because of Covid. Got the Cantonese roasted duck, roasted pork, soy sauce chicken, and charsu
They have changed the menu for lunch to non stir fry items only. It's a disappointment for me as I was looking for something stir fry. Their deli items are still very good as my husband had a rice plate with roast duck. I tried a piece & it was good. However, not like normal rice plates at other restaurants, there were no veggies at all. Most places will give you cooked cabbage. I had a plate of warm rice noodles with beef. It was alright. Not especially fond of it as I had better.
Lam Hoa Thuan
The place is decent, not too shabby. The staff is alright, though not particularly friendly. I found the food to be lacking; I ordered the duck, and it was quite oily, cold, and salty. The egg noodles didn't compare to VH in Oakland, which I can understand given the lower prices. Overall, it was an acceptable meal, but I don't think I'll be returning anytime soon. Cash only!
The food is great; my family has been coming here for years and years. Our recommendations are the bbq pork over rice (tip: you can ask for a fattier or leaner cut when ordering depending on your preference) and the house special ho fun soup. Both the Chinese and Vietnamese options are good and the prices are reasonable. There’s one staff member that is consistently pretty aggressive and rude, but in general they will help you.
