    Got sat in side dining room right next to a service station at the bar, which was not a good place to sit. Waiter didn’t offer to change for clean plates until almost the end of the meal. Ask to be in the main dining room if at all possible.

    Scallops with Vermicelli and the squad were out of this world. Mopa spaghetti was a bit salty. Other dishes were fine. Restaurant was small but a surprisingly large number of counter seating which we enjoyed. Ambience was spartan with a Hong Kong Canto Pop theme. Waitresses were super friendly. We will come again

    It’s a fun spot with tasty food at a moderately premium price. There is better Chinese food to be had in San Francisco, but the vibe here makes it worth the occasional trip. We had the chrysanthemum salad, which was very tasty and fresh though I didn’t much care for the dressing. It seemed a little bland to me. We had the xiao long bao, which I usually love. These were very tasty, but nothing special. The fat noodles were great. The sauce was a little sweet to my taste. The winner for me was the tofu clay pot with minced pork. Wonderfully spicy and full of interesting flavors, offset by the creamy creamy tofu. Really beautifully prepared.

    This is a genuine Chinese restaurant and you can see and feel the warmth and attention from the owners. Most other customers were Chinese, and we felt welcome. The Peking duck was excellent and the portions huge. Very good value for money. Just come hungry and do not expect Americanized Chinese food.
