Best Chinese Restaurants in The Castro

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.

You visit Burma Love for the food but the service is friendly and very helpful. We always enjoy the meal and the people.

Everything was fine except for one thing. The food and service were good, but for some reason, even though there was only one other table of customers in the restaurant at the time, they sat us right next to them, and then sat the next group, a large party of eight on the other side of us, when we had clearly asked for a quiet table so we could conduct business.

The flavors played together like a symphony of perfectly orchestrated sensations! The cabbage and the spaghetti were “first chair”. The servers were very friendly, patient in explaining the dishes, enthusiastic and super friendly! It as a five star dinner in every possible way.

Thank you for a perfect holiday date! It was my date’s first time and she loved it.
