26. Corn & Chicken Dumpling / 玉米雞肉
Lawrence L.

This place is absolutely delicious! It definitely gives grandma home made dumpling vibes. You can see someone making dumplings while you're eating which confirmed what you're eating is all hand made. The chives pancake/pocket is something I've never had before and I would definitely recommend it. it's different than the classic cong you bing you're probably used to. The pocket skin was nice, airy and light and the filling was very chive forward. All the dumplings were delicious and although I would have preferred the pig ear more spicy (you can always add more chili oil yourself) I thought the pig ear was nicely cut into thin even strips. Definitely coming back again!

23. Chive Egg Prawn & Pork Dumpling / 肉三鮮
Mia H.

Not a hidden gem anymore, but Fuwa Dumpling is worth the trek to Outer Richmond. Everything tastes very clean and the dumpling skins are nice and thin. Highly recommend the chive, egg, prawn, and pork dumplings- you honestly can't go wrong with either fried or boiled. I'm also a big fan of the dried bean curd salad, which I haven't been able to find very often at dumpling restaurants in the city! It can get busy around meal times, but our server was very kind and still took her time with us.

36- P{an fried Corn & Chicken Dumplings
Harry W.

Excellent Dumplings, Friendly Service in the quiet Richmond District. Given the unassuming exterior and no-frills decor, to me, this is one of those casual eateries that we somehow sometimes either walk right by, or take for granted as a neighborhood staple, but I gotta say I loved the dumplings here whether they be steamed or pan-fried. For our first time here, we chose the following: #22 - Steamed Dumplings with Pork & Napa Cabbage filling. We really enjoyed the al-dente texture of the skin (moderate thickness) and the fresh juicy filling inside. YUM.. Perfectly seasoned and totally on point and then some. I could see ordering seconds on this. #36 - Pan Fried Dumplings with Chicken & Corn filling - simliar to the steamed dumplings, but pan fried with golden brown crust on one side. Served HOT, Pretty darn good too. Loved the gentle crunch of the skin as you bite down on it to release just a bit of juice inside. That said the #10 - Wood Ear Mushroom Salad was a bit disappointing since they still retained water from the prep. Very fresh and crisp otherwise. 2.4/5 All in all, we loved the dumplings here, and would not hesitate to return to try out the pot stickers and chive pancake next time. They looked good too!

4. Chives Pancake / 韭菜合子
KC W.

I stopped in for a quick lunch before going to a movie at the Balboa Theater and my group of 3 was able to get seated right away on a Sunday around noon. We ordered a few items to share: - Spicy thinly sliced pig ear: the pig ear was the perfect texture, and it was flavorful but wasn't spicy at all. The Chinese name has red oil in it, but my plate didn't have any chili oil residue on it (maybe they forgot?). - Chives pancake: I liked how thin this was, though the English name is a bit misleading. It's more like a chives pocket, rather than a pancake like a scallion pancake. The pancake was pan fried golden but not super crispy. - Boiled Napa cabbage and pork dumplings: these were pretty good but nothing to write home about. I wish the skin had a bit more QQ texture. - Pork xiao long bao: I'm very picky about my xlb and unfortunately this one wasn't it for me. I wish the soup was more flavorful, and the skin was thick but somehow still broke apart too easily. Service was fine - they were quick to serve food and otherwise left us alone unless we flagged them down (just the way I like it). I know dumplings are their specialty, but I ended up liking their appetizers better. It's cool that they sell their own frozen dumplings though, for those who like them. Overall, it was good value for the amount of food we got, but flavor-wise it wasn't super impressive to me and I would stick to my usual dumpling spots.

31. Wonton Soup / 雲吞湯
Michelle R.

Service was great. As soon as we entered we were greeted and given a table. The place is very clean and has a cute decor. The dumplings are made in house, I could see the ladies forming them behind the counter. Food came quickly. We had the wonton soup, the chive pancakes, and the chive n shrimp n pork dumplings. Everything was delicious!!! Chive pancakes were perfectly crispy and refreshing. The dumplings had a little broth in them and were packed with a nice amount of filling. The wonton broth was light and tasty. I had jasmine tea with my meal. The three of us split the dishes and were full after our meal. I would come again for the same meal and to try the beef soup.

24. Corn & Pork Dumpling / 玉米猪肉
John H.

Holy $&@$! I found the perfect dumpling in the bay! I can't say enough about how amazing these dumplings were and you can actually pick what's inside of them. I chose the pork and corn dumplings, and the pork had a amazing flavor with almost a ginger aftertaste.. And fears of not doing the food justice with my review I'm just gonna leave you with a picture and tell you to go there

I frequent this area for boba (purple kow naming) nestled around the sunset district, closer to ocean beach. I wanted to give this place a try since it looked like a super clean hole in the wall and boy that it was! Quick, easy sit down service with your typical hot tea (oolong is served here) so you know you're in for a delicious dumpling delight :) no frills nor out of the ordinary service from your typical dumpling spot Not pictured however but pan fried corn & chicken dumplings were divine! Mouthwatering goodness in every bite with the sweetness from the corn and the soft mellow beef! Star of the show: Special beef brisket noodle soup! You can tell that they steep their broth for hours with its deep deep umami-hearty flavors. MUST GET!!!

Food Rating: 5.83/10 Price: 9/10 Ambiance/Service: 9/10 Overall Rating: 7.94/10 Came here around 6 pm on a Friday. The restaurant was busy but not fully packed. Service was friendly and fast. Napa Cabbage & Pork Dumplings (Boiled / 14 pieces) - $13.99 Rating: (8.5/10) For the price these dumplings were pretty good. The dumpling skins had a nice chew and the filling was well-seasoned. My only gripe is that the skins were wrapped a bit too smoothly for my liking, I prefer more texture and pleating. Corn & Chicken Dumpling (Pan Fried / 12 pieces) - $14.99 Rating: (5/10) These were disappointing. When I think of pan-fried dumplings, I expect something closer to gyoza-style. While they were crispy, it seemed like oil was sprayed on and they were finished in an air fryer, which doesn't really qualify as "pan-fried" to me Dried Bean Curd Salad - $9.99 Rating: (4/10) This dish was an absolute miss. It tasted like an unclean chopping board. Overall, I'd probably skip dining in next time and just pick up their frozen dumplings, they sell them for $13.99 for 15 pieces.

Ever since they opened, this part of the neighborhood needed this new addition. Mom likes coming here, it's close to where she lives when we visit. All the dumplings are made fresh; the xiao long baos are juicy and steamy hot. The beef noodle soup makes you crave more on a cold Winter's night. In this area, it's always foggy, so soup is always fitting. Service is attentive and friendly, and that's why we keep coming back. 'Til next time ~ cheers and see you on Yelp (SYOY)!

Great northern style Chinese food here. They specialize in dumplings and cold appetizer dishes. Pork Xiao long bao: B+ Cabbage and pork pan fried dumplings: B- Beef noodle soup: B+ Bean curd stick cucumber salad: A- Sliced marinated beef: A- Fried crab cheese puff: A Fried chicken wings: A- Quality of all the food is very good. I'd recommend the soup dumplings, fried chicken wings, beef noodle soup and crab cheese puffs. Good service, very responsive.

dumplings & beef pancake
Michelle Z.

New favorite dumpling spot in SF! Everything we tried was SO GOOD. We got beef noodle soup with rice noodles, which was incredibly flavorful and had two different cuts of tender beef. Normally I'm not a huge soup person but this was soo delicious and I couldn't stop eating it. Would 100% order again! We tried two types of dumplings (one pan fried and one boiled) and both were amazing. Good filling to skin ratio, and the pan fried ones had great flavor from the oil. The fillings were also unique and both yummy in their own way. The beef pancake was great (4 is a lot) but probably wouldn't order again (I'd try the chive one next time). The chicken wings were the only thing that I thought were just ok (the five spice seasoning was too strong for me) but my boyfriend loved them. I will definitely be back to try more of the menu!! Service was also great and very quick. They are friendly and efficient. There was also tons of seating when we came for a late night dinner on a Saturday.

22. Napa Cabbage & Pork Dumpling / 白菜鮮肉  Super juicy!
Stacy T.

Such a little gem in the neighborhood. Sure, lots of places have XLB but you can taste the love and quality in each bite. Our favorite dumplings were the boiled pork and cabbage and the beef and onion. The wrappers you can tell are homemade and just the right thickness that envelop little juicy flavorful nuggets of meat filling. It's a treat and very filling. Can't wait to come and try the noodle soups which I saw a bunch of tables order. They must be in the know! In short - don't pass up this unassuming spot. If you have a craving for dumplings, it hits the spot. The service is also really sweet.

Salina T.

INCREDIBLE! quality food that is simple but executed cleanly and with lots of flavor. Each dish didn't seem overly oily and I definitely would come back. We got the Salt and Pepper chicken wings which were perfectly cooked and fried. We got the dried tofu salad, which was so so good and fried dumplings, which were fried but also still had a little bit of soup inside. Ambience is casual and service is fast. There's parking but it finishes at 6 PM so come for dinner! Taste: 5/5 Ambiance: 5/5 Service: 5/5

Amazing service! I…read morecame as a party of 2 at 5:20 (just before opening) on a Saturday night and we were the last party to be seated as the first round of walk-ins! We got seated right by the window, so lovely! The ambiance is so nice and the decor is so cozy and cool. We got the free peanuts and cucumber salad first- so flavorful and a nice way to whet our appetite. The scallop vermicelli was SO buttery and flavorful. I wanted another order!! The claypot rice came steaming hot and full of meats! Get something to cut it with! The black bean clams were delicious but a tad salty so it's nice to have with the claypot, or even an order of veggies and plain rice! We ended our meal with shaved ice that was layered with black bean, custard, and boba! So refreshing and a perfect end! I would come back 10000%

Anyway, having tried it, I can say it was good, but not so good that I'd expend that much energy to secure the reservation. Have to say, service was really great. Servers were attentive without being overbearing, which is always welcome. We ordered several dishes and dined, as they suggested, family style. To start, we were given two complimentary dishes, the roasted peanuts and the smashed cucumbers; both were nice appetizers. We ordered the Chiu Chow green beans, the Mongolian beef noodles, the claypot rice with lop cheung and bacon, the salt 'n peppa prawns, and the whole fried petrale sole, the last two being on the day's "specials" board. The winning dish was definitely the green beans. All the food was good, but seemed to be a bit overly salted and highly spiced. The piece of beef I had from the Mongolian beef noodles was tender, but one of my friends thought her piece was a bit tough and too chewy; we all thought the beef could have been cut into smaller or thinner pieces. We also shared two desserts since it was a birthday celebration (there are only three options offered). We had the red bean shaved ice and the mango pudding. Both were good (not "oh, boy, yummy" good, but good). Nice to try. The price wasn't outrageous ($200 including tax and tip), but I think this will be a "been there, done that" experience for me unless a friend absolutely wants to go again.

Is there a law that says food can't taste THIS good without some sort of warning label? You know,…read moresomething along the lines of: "WARNING: Excessive deliciousness may cause your brain to go into shock from an overload of endorphins." No? Well, there SHOULD be one at this restaurant! We stopped by for some Sunday dim sum, and DAMN! Did this place knock it out of the park! First off, the ambiance was AMAZING! Sitting outside next to the ocean with that cool coastal breeze rolling through on a beautiful Sunday afternoon? Chef's kiss! Honestly, the weather alone was already setting us up for a great experience before the excellent service. But the food? Oh, it took things to a whole different level! Steamed Dumplings (XLB): 100/10!!! The flavors were absolutely SPOT ON! The skin was incredibly thin and delicate, making every bite a perfect balance of juicy filling and soft wrapper. Just the right thickness to soak up a little dipping sauce without overpowering the dumpling itself. LOVE, LOVE, LOVE! The Rest of the Dim Sum: Everything pictured below absolutely delivered! Not a single disappointing dish in the bunch. Black Swan Taro Puff: Now THIS was probably the most interesting dish I had during the entire meal! The texture was unlike anything else we ordered, but the filling? DIVINE! The combination of century egg and chicken created this incredible explosion of savory flavors. It's one of those combinations you wouldn't necessarily expect to work so beautifully together, but somehow, it just DOES! Every bite was a little adventure. Absolutely loved the creativity behind this one! Peking Duck: Let's just say a picture is worth a thousand words. 10/10. NO NOTES! Final Thoughts: Between the incredible food, beautiful oceanfront ambiance, and that perfect Sunday afternoon breeze, this was easily one of the highlights of our trip. Every dish felt thoughtfully prepared, and the flavors were just phenomenal. I genuinely cannot wait to return to San Francisco, even if it's just for another meal here! And seriously, someone needs to look into that warning label. This level of deliciousness should come with a disclaimer!

I even went 45 minutes out of my way just to go there. Just be aware that if you want the dim sum experience there is much more during lunch. FOOD: Wonderful. We had a wide variety of food. Honey BBQ Pork, Peking Roast Duck, Harborview Beef, Baked BBQ Bun, Xiao Long Bao, Kung Pao Chicken, and Garlic Honey Chicken. Honey BBQ Pork was surprisingly good! Loved it. Roast duck was exactly what a good Chinese restaurant should serve which is NOT a given. Baked BBQ Bun was excellent (not to be confused with cha siu bao which has a different texture and taste). Garlic Honey Chicken was terrific. Similar to orange chicken but a bit more sweet and a tiny bit less tangy. Not really garlicky at all. Kung Pao Chicken was good but not exceptional and the Harborview Beef was tasty but a lot like teriyaki beef jerky. I think it was way overcooked. SERVICE: Good portions and packaged really well. We did take out and they had it packaged and ready on time. Too bad they don't have it available downstairs so you have to either wait for the literal two person elevator or climb up and down the stairs. COST: A bit pricey but at least you get what you paid for. It's hard to find this high quality Chinese food so if you're lucky enough, go and try it. My favorite is still Begoni Bistro in Chinatown but this one is definitely worth it and I might change my mind if I get to try the lunch!

The restaurant has a bit of a nicer / upscale ambiance (so wish I'd dressed nicer but alas). We ordered the bbq pork buns, Szechuan spicy sauce cold chicken, half roasted duck with wraps, braised tofu with vegetables, and these scallion spinach noodles. BBQ Pork Buns: I loved the bbq pork buns. The bun itself was kind of light and slightly sweet (reminded me of the pineapple buns at Mei Lai Wah in NYC), and the pork inside was tasty as well. Szechuan Spicy Sauce Cold Chicken: Then we got the cold chicken, which was not bad. The chicken itself was really tender but I do feel like the sauce wasn't anything special - it tasted very similar to store bought Lao Gan Ma, with only a very slight, imperceptible difference. Roasted Duck w/Wraps: These were quite solid - the skin was thin, crispy, with the fat largely removed. I was slightly expecting the thinner authentic wraps vs. the thicker bao buns but these were still good. Scallion Spinach Noodles: These were probably my least favorite. They were lacking in flavor (had to ask for some salt). With salt, it was maybe slightly better? The noodles have a scallion flavor that is just sooo light and subtle, it tastes plain. And so, if I came back, I'd definitely opt for a different noodle dish. Braised Tofu w/Vegetables: Lastly, we all unanimously enjoyed this dish. It was a generous portion of tofu, and the sauce was rich that was easily soaked up by the tofu and vegetables. There were a few shiitake mushrooms that soaked up the flavor amazingly that I wished there were more. However, it's pretty typical vs. other cheaper Chinese restaurants, so I don't know if there was anything necessarily standout about it if you've had this before. Still enjoyed it of course. Overall, we had a nice dinner that we were all pretty full from. That being said, our bill actually wasn't as bad as I thought it'd be especially for SF (came out to little bit less than $50 per person including the 18% service charge they put in). I think the food was quite good, but unless I'm explicitly wanting to go for the more upscale vibe, I'd probably opt for a cheaper more mom-and-pop Chinese restaurant as the food quality would likely be pretty similar.
