My wife and I and our kids had a fabulous lunch here. Happy all around, despite some picky eaters. Gloria was charming and we would have missed this gem if weren’t for her.
We loved stopping by this restaurant and it was a great experience for the teenage boys! The owner knows how to make them laugh! I liked sitting on the balcony. It’s right by Vital tea shop which is a great place to do tea tasting and not far from the fortune cookie factory. We loved it! We got a smaller meal here and tried out the more popularized Chinatown restaurants, but this was one better.
Walking around Chinatown and chose this restaurant. Immediately greeted and seated, then given a free small appetizer. I ordered the BBQ pork buns, General Tso's chicken, and rice. Everything was delicious, the General Tso's wasn't overpowering spicy, it was great. I'll definitely be coming back!
They entice you outside with free ice cream and potstickers... No prices outside and the menu on the outside is different from what is inside. Our first time here hence the "staple" choices in dishes. Food was well served for a the Hong Kong Style show mein... Combination Fried rice very yummy... and our expectations where high as they were priced at $24 and $27 respectively. Broccoli beef, mainly for veggies and it was quite tasty, but we were a family of four, we each had a serving and nothing left on that plate, 3 pieces of broccoli and of meat each.$24 Sweet and sour chicken, was decent and better served than the broccoli beef.$22 Dumplings: Taiwan fried shrimp... deep fried shrimp $9 for 4 pieces. Spring rolls $9 for 4 Shu Mai $10 disappointed!!! You could taste the frozen... They do not give cups of water and charge for tea. Our bill was $182... no we will not be returning... yes some dishes were tasty... but no... not at that price. Also... the music Playlist was odd as if they had asked " popular music that people in the US like:.... which was very off putting considering the ambience was selling something else...
Stopped in for an early dinner. Staff were super kind and gracious. The dim sum was delicious, I also got the mocktail mojito which was very refreshing. Will definitely go back to this restaurant if I go back to San Francisco!
