Capital Restaurant - 9. Fried Chicken Wings with Salt and Hot Pepper, string beans - Chinese Near Me - San Francisco, California

See all

We've heard great things about Capital Restaurant, especially their fried chicken wings! So while in the area, we were able to grab a table about 45 minutes before closing. Strangely, they close at 8 pm, which is quite early, so luckily we got there in time. We weren't the only ones in line, and the place had a bunch of patrons still enjoying their meals. But they managed to squeeze us in! ***OUR PICKS*** FRIED CHICKEN WINGS WITH SALT AND HOT PEPPERS ~ We were told you get 11 large wings! They were lightly salted and fried with jalapeno peppers. And these wings maintained their crispiness throughout dinner. It seemed like every table had them! They were gooood! And the price was very reasonable too! But the funny thing is, there are no prices on the menu?! Online, I see $13.50 - 13.95. Then a reviewer said it was $13.75. In any case, it doesn't go over $14. At least not yet! It's a DEFINITE must-get item if you love wings like we do!!! 5/5 PEKING SPARERIBS ~ Deep-fried pork ribs coated in a sweet, tangy, and dark red sauce, often made from ketchup, soy sauce and vinegar. These were still crispy with the sauce! Very flavorful and yummy! 5/5 FISH FILET WITH TOFU AND BLACK MUSHROOMS IN CLAYPOT ~ Fish was tender, and the sauce was tasty. One of our friends who was dining with us really likes this dish, so we ordered it. We thought it was good too! 5/5 SAUTEED PEA SHOOTS WITH GARLIC ~ This was the only dish that could have been better. The pea sprouts were a bit old, and so they were not tender. It's quite fibrous when the stems aren't soft, so you'd have to chew a bit harder to get it down! It was garlicky as it should be, but just tough. 3/5 YANG CHOW FRIED RICE ~ char siu, shrimp, scallions, eggs, and peas. This was also another good dish. 4/5 WESTLAKE SOUP ~ Egg white drop soup with beef. The soup was lighter than gravy, so it wasn't too starchy and the beef was soft and tender. Very warm and comforting on a chilly evening. 5/5 We liked almost every dish. We would only skip the pea shoots. Otherwise, it's a solid choice to get Cantonese food in Chinatown! We will come back again when we're in the mood for chicken wings and are in the neighborhood! read more

I've heard so much about how good their chicken wings are. Yes, the texture is great--super crunchy, and they maintain their crunchiness after sitting out a bit. However, I didn't detect much flavor. They were pretty bland. Maybe it was an off day or a day off from the regular chef. We also ordered the oxtails with bean curd (foo jook) which was flavorful. They cut some of the larger oxtails, which results in some bone shards in the stew. The tofu with mushrooms was good. Portions were not generous but adequate. Service is pretty quick. This place is a very casual restaurant and being located in Chinatown, it has limited street parking. Portsmouth Square Garage on Kearny would be easier than searching for street parking. read more

Came on a Sunday afternoon and it was packed during lunch hour. Typical Cantonese chains, very reasonably priced lunch plates. Flavor wise things were pretty average-B+. The best dish was probably the chicken wings-they were crispy without being overly oily. read more

Cantonese style cooking that seems very popular amongst locals. My favorite was the salt and pepper spareribs. Right among of salt and crispiness. The prawns were good but the walnuts were not well presented. Overall this is one of those hole in the wall spot. Would come to try what other locals recommend read more

What a fun way to start the day off with a day trip to SF! Capital is tried and true. Even with the change in ownership quite a few years ago, this place is consistently delicious and reasonably priced. This is a no-frills, traditional Chinese restaurant with average service. 10 of us stopped here for lunch and my kids convinced me to order four orders of the salt and pepper chicken wings. Fast forward to the end of our meal, we got another order! We also got salt and pepper shrimp, dry fried beef chow fun, tomato beef HK style chow mein, Chinese broccoli chicken HK style chow mein, pork/preserved vegetable and fried tofu, and blackbean spareribs string beans rice. Everything was delicious and the tab came out to be around $226 with tax and tip. For 10 people and enough food for leftovers, this is a great deal. Kids weren't wrong, the wings served piping hot and crispy there is definitely 1000 times better than taking it to go. read more

Made a quick stop by Capital and ordered two orders of the salt and pepper chicken wings. It took me around an hour to get home, so I reheated the wings in the air fryer. They were still lightly crispy and had the perfect puffed up texture, with a lightly briny and spicy flavor from the jalapeños. Absolutely devoured them read more

Capital Restaurant - Chinese Near Me - San Francisco, California

BEST SALT & PEPPER WINGS IN THE CITY... My partner and I have always gone here since we were children and remembering all the photos on the walls. My go-to order is always going to be the Salt & Pepper Fried Chicken ($13.75), Salted Fish & Chicken Fried Rice ($13.75), Mustard Greens with Garlic ($9.95) or Pea Shoots ($13.95). It's the perfect amount of food for two people. If you're feeling greedy, order some wings to-go but tell the waiter before paying the check. Salt & Pepper Fried Chicken ($13.75) - The chicken wings are super delicious, crispy and tender on the inside. They're always piping hot when they arrive at the table. If you're sensitive to salted foods..maybe avoid? but it's literally in the name.. Salted Fish & Chicken Fried Rice ($13.75) - It's hard to come by since salted fish alone can be expensive. A great sizeable portion with bits and pieces of salted fish and chicken. It's great to pair with the crispy chicken skin read more

Capital Restaurant - 9. Fried Chicken Wings with Salt and Hot Pepper & 96. Salted Fish with Chicken Fried Rice & 93. Mustard Greens with Garlic - Chinese Near Me - San Francisco, California

Capital is a true San Francisco staple and I have been coming here since high school. It is an authentic Chinese restaurant that never misses the mark. We visited on a Friday night for dinner and it was pretty busy. However, we were seated right away and the service was still very quick and friendly. They are famous for their salt and hot pepper chicken wings, which are an absolute must. The wings were so crispy and good that we ended up ordering a second plate for the table. Since everything is served family style, it is a great place to bring a group. Even with the Friday night rush, the staff kept things moving efficiently. It remains one of my favorite spots in Chinatown for a reliable and delicious meal. read more

Came here with friends for lunch and thought it was just ok. They're known for their fried chicken wings, lightly seasoned with salt, pepper, and jalapenos. They were very crispy but too dry and bland for me. The beef chow fun was the best thing we ordered. It had a nice wok hei flavor, wasn't too oily, and the beef was tender. read more

Ive gone many times and like a lot of their dishes This is definitely a group meal restaurant since i dont prefer their lunch special concept. I always get a bowl of rice here and eat primarily meat and vegetable dishes. Ive ordered: Best: Salt and pepper chicken wings Fukien style egg tofu Beef with mixed vegetables Honey Walnut shrimp Mongolian beef Alright: Beef chow fun Chinese Broccoli Bad: Egg soup Chow mein Their combo dishes Salt and pepper chicken wings are the best when eaten with rice because of how salty the wings are. The salt and pepper work so well with a crispy skin, making this dish addicting. (you know its popular when you walk in and see to go boxes of only chicken wings) Fukien style egg tofu is my favorite dish on the menu with a seafood sauce and soft egg tofu. One of the ingredients is mushroom which I understand people would avoid due to the strength of the specific mushroom they use but I love it. It tastes best again with a bowl of rice. Beef with mixed vegetables is the most balanced dish and simple with a tender beef and good portion of greens. Honey walnut shrimp is great and simple with nothing special compared to other places that make this dish Mongolian beef is tender and saucy and is a good addition to a meal. There are however still more mongolian beef dishes out there that beat capitals. Beef chow fun was saucy and oily and had tender beef in it. Chinese Broccoli was simple and seasoned with salt Egg soup didn't have much flavor nor egg Chow mein has a mix of meat within the noodles but the noodles aren't good compared to other chow mein restaurants Reasoning for the combo dishes is that I feel the portions they provide with carbs and protein isn't enough compared to buying a single meat dish and a bowl of rice. Its much more worth in price and flavor to do the latter. read more

My buddies and I came here last Sunday after an intense BP tournament nearby, and they've never had a chance to come to this place and I was pretty shocked. I've had there food here for a while, but also have not been bad recently, so we decided to come here around 7 pm that Sunday. The Ambiance was as expected of this place, EXTREMELY busy as there is a lot of hype on the fried chicken, and don't get me wrong, Its still one of the best in the city. The service itself was a bit slow that night, but I can't really blame them, it looked like they had a large family gathering with a preset meal already happening so I'd imagine they had to get those out, our food took a bit longer then we'd had hoped, about 20-30 minutes, but when they came out, I'd say it was well worth it, The Fishmaw soup came out first and we devoured it pretty quick, honestly really good; I added a bit of hot sauce to give it a bit of heat, but the soup didn't need it. The Capital fried chicken came out about 15 minutes, and wooooo were they hot, flavor was there, crunch was there, and the 3 of us couldn't resist eating it up. The Mongolian beef came right after and we asked for a few bowls of rice to complement it, which came out quickly. I must say, this is up there as one of the best Mongolian beefs I've had in the SF, not too oily, great flavor, great portion, great taste and meat extremely tender. If Capitals were closer I may go between here and my favorite place, but its a bit out of my current location. We had Singaporean noodles, which I forgot to take a photo of, and thought it was okay, not my favorite item to get but my friend wanted it. He did enjoy it! Overall, a must for their fried Chicken and I would say to try some other items out as well (especially the Mongolian beef if you like it!) read more

This place is known for their chicken wings - salt and pepper style, crispy skin, not very spicy which is perfect for me and no sauce needed. It's very flavorful. Of course we ordered it - 11 wings for $14,75 Depending on what time you go, it gets very busy - especially on the weekend. We were there a little after 5pm and had to wait and ended up sitting at the counter which is fine for the 2 of us. The phone was constantly ringing for take out orders too. If it's very busy, sometimes people share a table if needed just so they can seat as many people as possible. Since we sat at the counter, we can see the take-out orders pile up waiting to get picked up and not surprisingly, many orders were chicken wings. We also ordered Hung Tao Yee Foo Won Ton which is fried won top in sea food soup. That hit the spot. Not all chinese restaurants offer this on their menu. This costs $15.75 (about 10 won tons) One surprising thing is there are NO PRICES on the menu so you have no clue how much each item is. This is the only restaurant I know of that has no prices posted. I guess it doesn't bother people and everyone just order whatever they want and pay the bill when they get it. Most items will be in the $13 - 19 range. Service was good considering how busy they get. They definitely have a following as I heard one wait staff tell some customers as they were leaving - "See you next week." read more

Diner style vibes Chinese restaurant. I came here mainly for their chicken wings and also ordered the vegetable seafood and shrimp fried rice. The fried chicken was very crispy and a good size. The vegetable seafood was soft and had a lot of umami flavor. The shrimp fried rice was disappointing because it looked flavor. I'm assuming they didn't add any sauce to the fried rice so the customers can control the seasoning and flavor profile. Service was fast paced read more

This spot has become my current hyperfixation. My favorite wings in the city, always perfectly seasoned and crispy and well priced. Outside of the wings I'm a big fan of the beef chow fun and was surprised by how good the egg flower soup was. The salt & pepper spare ribs were very similar to the wings, but I liked the hefty portion and that it was mostly meat versus bone. We've also tried the green beans and broccoli chicken, you can't go wrong here. Well priced, quick, and good amount of seating! read more

It seems there is an obsession for chicken wings. Whether it's buffalo wings, Korean fried chicken or Nashville hot chicken wings. Although these wings have good flavor types but most are drowned full of sauce and get messy at times. Then there are dry wings like the Garlic Parmesan. One type of wings in San Francisco doesn't need buckets of sauce or be splashed in sauce repeatedly or even dipped not even a drip. These wing don't need any other kind of extras and stand on their own . On an Autumn stroll in San Francisco's Chinatown on Clay street there is a place which not only serves on of the best dry chicken wings with no sauce needed in San Francisco but also serve some delicious Cantonese food. Capital Restaurant has been serving tasty Chinese food for in Chinatown for decades. Inside the Capital restaurant there is a counter which resembles a diner and also some tables for dining. I ordered the Fried chicken wings with Salt and Hit Pepper and they were flavorful. Each bite packs a punch of flavor and definitely no need to dip it in any extra sauce. To pair the Fried chicken wings with Salt and Hot Pepper I got the shrimp fried rice which was a okay and match with salty seasoning of the chicken wings. There are lots of good dishes to explore at Capital Restaurant. It's Capital on Clay street a block away from Sacramento not the Capitol but the street and it serves a great fried chicken "wing"around the block on Waverly place where you find the "Spice King" a few blocks from there is "House of Nanking "when it comes to good Chinese food San Francisco Chinatown has almost "everything " People still debating for the best chicken wings but no restaurant owns the " crown " but Capital Restaurant dry chicken wings taste scored a Super Bowl wining " Touchdown " and because San Francisco has some restaurants which are world "renowned "they say there are no kings but there is 4 Kings in San Francisco's" Chinatown" read more

A little bird whispered in my ear "will you join me in making Women's History Month extra special?" Absolutely! I would be honored to. I have 3 favorite restaurants that come instantly to mind. The first is Big Fish House. The second is Shanghai House and the third is Capital. My family discovered this restaurant about 14 years ago when Sammy and her mother owned the restaurant. It was popular then, but now it's even more popular. The fried chicken wings with slices of jalapenos put the restaurant on the map. The new owners are Anita, Linda and their husbands. The hubbys are in the back cooking, but Anita is the face of the restaurant. So, in my mind, she's the woman owner that is representing Women's History Month. She's the one that says "hello" and takes your order. The hostess with the mostest. The food is good. That's why it's so busy. It is truly home cooking here at Capital. There is never a dull moment here. If there are no tables available for you and your party, you're asked if you'd like to share a table with others. We did this last summer and had a blast with 3 high tech students from Carnegie Mellon University that were doing internships here in the South Bay. We exchanged stories and made lunch so memorable. A fun thing to do while eating here is seeing all the wonderful dishes coming out of the kitchen. Ooooooooo, I'll order that next time! read more

During our tour of downtown San Francisco, we found ourselves extremely hungry. The recommendation of this place came from my son's friend. Despite the tight space, we ordered several entrees after my son assured me of their fried chicken's quality. Upon tasting, I was left speechless; the food is far superior to what I've experienced in Texas. It's indeed puzzling why Canton restaurants like this aren't found in Texas. read more

My coworker highly recommended this spot for the wings and it did not disappoint. These were honestly the crispiest and juiciest wings I've had in the Bay Area. I prefer dry wings over saucy ones, so these hit even more for me than San Tung. All the dishes we tried were delicious, though most were on the saltier side except for the fried rice. You can actually see the MSG salt crystals on the wings, and they're perfectly seasoned and extra crispy. I would come back just for the wings alone. My partner isn't usually a big fan of Chinese food, but these wings completely won him over. I don't think I've had better dry wings anywhere else. The garlic pea shoots were the most expensive item, but overall this place is super affordable and definitely worth a visit. read more

Nice hole in the wall spot! The food was great! The beef was tender and melted in your mouth. The Mongolian beef was seasoned well. The chicken wings are known for being "the best in the bay". They were excellent! They came out piping hot. They had excellent flavor! They are quite salty, so if that isn't your thing I would stay away. But the wings were delicious and my favorite. The oolong tea was brewed perfectly and hot. The service was just okay. Our server was nice, but there were several tables (the same size as our table) who were sat well after us that were served before us. So we waited a long time while around 3 tables that arrived after us were served before we were. read more

We ordered the Egg Tofu with Spicy Meat Sauce, the famous Salt and Pepper wings, and the string beans. We had wanted to order the pea shoots or the water spinach but they ran out of both.

The wings were pretty solid, although I was expecting a little more since they're the most famous dish. We thought it was a little bit on the salty side. The string beans were ok, I probably wouldn't order it again. The restaurant was packed when we went on a Friday night, although we were seated in around 10-15 minutes. read more

Small restaurant on Clay Street between Grant and Stockton. Not a lot of seating and on this day filled up really quickly at lunch time. While we were there, we saw literally dozens of to-go.orders pass by. Almost every one of them had ordered the wings. Then we noticed the sign on the wall touting 'best wings in the bay'. This was all after we had ordered wings and thought they were some of the best wings we have had. The green onions and garlic fried with them added a perfect amount of spice to the perfectly crisper chicken. Delicious. We also tried the oxtail over rice plate and tomato beef. Both were very good. Service was also very good and though busy, staff was fast. Five stars. Great place. read more

Capital is the BEST place for chicken wings (prepared salt & pepper style) especially after some cocktails. My most recent visit was last night after holiday drinks with former colleagues. We also had steamed pork hash (I call it a Chinese meatloaf), pea shoots, honey walnut prawns, sweet & sour pork & a few other dishes to feed our group of 8). I would say it's Chinese comfort food (Cantonese style). They were sold out of the rice noodles that are used to make beef chow fun (one of our favorites) & our server said that if you would like, to call them and tell them to reserve some rice noodles for the dish if you were planning to come that evening. Service is quick & helpful. Not much ambiance (fluorescent lights, tiled floors) & it's a normal Cantonese restaurant that offers dine in & takeout. read more

My friends got their Famous salt and pepper chicken wings, according to them it was not as flavourful for them and the only thing they liked was the crunch of it.

Solid place in Chinatown! 3.5 stars. (Any 3 star Chinese place is good, that's just how it works.) Perhaps the stakes were too high for the fried chicken. It took so long to come out and when it came out it was way too temperature hot. Sad. A bit still oily too. There also wasn't too much meat and had way too much bone. It was good, don't get me wrong, just wasn't life-changing like I wanted it to be. Green beans were the perfect texture/crunch, would get again. We also got the beef shank in a clay pot. So little beef, but I guess that's how the dish works. The service was great, loved chatting with the ladies. The tea was good too! read more

A true hole in the wall experience. One of the locals recommended this place and I really did enjoy it. The food was hot, fresh, and well seasoned. I ordered the General chicken and the wings. I really enjoyed the food. All of the flavors were different from what I'm used to but it seemed to have a more traditional Chinese flavor to it as opposed to the overly oily, overly sweet flavor profile at many of today's Chinese restaurants. The staff was nice and attentive. The space is small and really packed out but it felt more like a family inviting you over to have a meal. I'd like to see the implementation of fountain drinks (as opposed to the cans) with at least 3 refills. Other than that, they did the thing. I definitely recommend this establishment. read more

Salt and hot pepper wings lived up to the hype! They were excellent. Mongolian beef was good, not great. One of my family members got a dinner plate special and he really enjoyed all that was on it. Honey walnut shrimp was also good. We also got General's chicken and vegetable fried rice. Both of those were very good. We visited on a Friday evening and were seated right away but the restaurant quickly became busy with what appeared to be more locals than tourists. We felt the cost for the amount of food we ordered was very fair. I will be dreaming of the wings and searching for a version in my hometown, and will definitely come back to Capital restaurant when I'm in San Francisco. read more

Visited on a Friday night around 7:15pm with a friend. Restaurant was packed, there was one other group ahead of us, wait was about 15 minutes before we were seated. Food: Salt and Pepper Chicken Wings - came piping hot with a great crispy fry, well seasoned with salt, pepper, fried garlic and jalapenos, a classic done right, must order if you come for a visit, portion felt generous with about a dozen wings per order, grabbed some steamed rice to pair with Garlic pea shoots - okay, stir fried with garlic cloves, slightly oily, with a little bit of broth, pea shoots were decent some really tender others a bit more tough, nice to have a veggie to pair with the wings Service was good, friendly and fairly quick. Once seated we were served some tea and got our order in, food came after maybe a 20 minute wait. Overall enjoyed dinner at this Chinatown classic. A great spot for a casual dinner. Might be a slight wait but worth it. read more

Came here on a Saturday morning when they opened at 11am and half the resturant was already filled. It ended up filling up by around 11:30 am. Capital is well known for their deep fried salt and pepper chicken wings so of course this is a must order. It was the first item that came out for us and it was piping hot! Skin was crispy and meat is juicy! Fried perfectly! Nice and Salty with hints of pepper. The honey walnut shrimp is a staple when dining at any Chinese resturant and reminds me of all the times as a kid eating out with my family. It was made well and very nostalgic for me. The salted fish with chicken fried rice is my go to order for fried rice and had a good funk to the salted fish that added to the strong flavors of this dish. We also decided to order the fukien style fried egg tofu for the first time and was surprised at how yummy this was. The tofu was sliced into circular coin shapes and deep fried. It was drenched in the gravy similar to the ones on fukien fried rice and I just can't get enough of it! This is a must order! read more

Haven't been to this restaurant for many years and recently revisited a few times because I was feeling nostalgic. My late father used to treat me to lunch on occasion and this was one of a few dozen places he liked in Chinatown. This place seemed smaller than I remembered, and more crowded around lunch time. Food is still delicious. Staff is efficient and polite. On a recent visit, I tried the beef chow fun and it was delicious with lots of wok hay. The tomato beef with rice made me cry a bit (in a good way). Food definitely helps bring back memories. This is a humble restaurant serving Chinese American food since 1986, not sure if it's same owner/family, but it's been continuously operating which is rare these days.

There wasn't anything in particular that stood out to me when dining at this restaurant. It was packed the day I decided to come so the wait outside was about 20-30 min. We had to split a table with 2 different families which I didn't mind since that's common in HK. I ordered the famous wings, Singapore noodles, string beans and wonton noodle soup. My favorite was the wonton noodle soup. It was warm and comforting for the gloomy SF day. String beans were very salty and the wings didn't scream anything special. Service was ok, efficient and straight to the point. I probably wouldn't wait to dine here next time. read more
