Come Try Chicken -- that's what Go Chicken says in Chinese characters, if you're curious. Arrived shortly after 2pm on a Saturday. Placed order by 2:22pm, last of the 5 dishes we ordered arrived at 2:39pm and by 2:55pm, they were coming by a couple of times to check on whether we could pay for the bill -- this was rude and offensive behavior! I see they have a closing time of 2:45pm but if we ordered by 2:22pm and kitchen stopped cooking at 2:39pm, what's the problem with leaving us to enjoy the meal we paid for? We didn't need any service and I don't see how we were an inconvenience to anyone. If they really want everyone to be out the door by 2:45pm, then they shouldn't accept anymore dine in orders after 2pm. I chewed through my food so fast that I felt like I was getting indigestion! Also don't be a sucker for their scallop noodle $20.99 -- I should've called them over to find a scallop for me -- just find one!! The whole plate of noodles tasted bland with no flavor. Check out my pics. Their so called Bang Bang chicken $14.99 is basically General Tso sauce -- nothing banging about it. The espresso spareribs $14.99 remind me of the dimsum I once had at Koi Palace many years ago but these spareribs were a little tough to chew. The only highlight was the sandstorm chicken $14.99 and golden egg yolk mushrooms, although definitely not worth $12.99 -- two dollars worth of white mushrooms fried with some egg yolk batter. So rude to rush us, especially since the last dish arrived at the table at 2:39pm. I've dined at plenty of Asian places that don't do this even if they close in the middle of the afternoon. 50% tip taken off for the rude behavior read more

Finding parking was easy since there's plenty of metered spots nearby, and we had no trouble grabbing a table when we rolled in at 11:00 AM on Saturday. The setup is a little unique--you order the food via a QR code, but you still pay through the server. We tried the garlic green beans, seafood crispy noodles, and the dry cooked spare ribs with ube, but the spicy wontons were the real winner. Everything was solid, though I'm curious to try the dry cooked chicken next time to see how it stacks up against the ribs! read more

Small and organized spot with amazing service! One of the ladies wearing eyeglasses was so friendly, she recommended the Beef Brisket Stew Rice Roll and even showed us a few to-go orders. Service like that really makes a difference. We tried four dishes: Golden Egg Yolk Mushroom - hands down the best dish ever! Unique, crisp, full of real egg yolk flavor, and not salty. Loved it so much we could easily eat it as a snack. Sand Storm Chicken Wings - super crispy and huge portions (10 pieces for $14.99!). Incredible value for the Bay Area. Caramelized Spareribs with Ube - visually striking and unique. The spareribs are already marinated with savory flavors, but the caramelization wasn't sweet enough to balance them. Still an interesting and creative dish, just slightly too savory for our taste. Beef Brisket Stew Rice Roll - unfortunately our least favorite. Too salty, beef overcooked and falling apart, with very little meat. Overall, the mushrooms are a must-try, and the friendly staff makes this spot a joy to visit. :) read more

Enjoyed Go Chicken the first time so decided to have lunch there again with other friends. Food was still good. Ordered different items from the last time and dishes were very delicious. The salt & pepper ribs were a little disappointing because the pieces had gigantic bones with hardly any meat. Still good service and the other two dishes were good. read more

We were greeted and seated by a waitress upon entering the restaurant. They have an extensive menu. We ordered the Black Truffle Duck Rice, Seafood Crispy Noodle, Sand Storm Chicken Wings, Caramelized Spareribs With Ube, Espresso Spareribs, Sauteed Green Beans, Honey Glazed Walnut Shrimp With Cranberry Aioli, and Jasmine Tea. Our food came out in a timely manner. The Black Truffle Duck Rice, Seafood Crispy Noodles, and Espresso Spareribs were ok. There weren't anything special with these three entrees. We couldn't really taste the Espresso in the Espresso Spareribs. The Sand Storm Chicken Wings were piping hot when they got to our table and they were flavorful. The Sauteed Green Beans and Honey Glazed Walnut with Cranberry Aioli were tasty. The prices were fairly reasonable and they were generous with the portions. We will be back to try some of their other entrees. read more

Wow, the food here was so good!!! We ordered over the phone and everything was ready in about 15-20 minutes. We tried the Sandstorm chicken wings, egg yolk mushrooms, and chicken tenders with ube. The Sandstorm wings were tasty and crunchy - definitely a solid classic chicken wing but probably not something I'd personally order again. The chicken tenders with ube was so good! The flavor was on point and caramelized which made them perfect over white rice. The chunks of ube paired surprisingly well and added a nice touch of sweetness. Definitely a must order! My favorite was the egg yolk mushrooms. They were battered perfectly with the ideal crunch and had that rich savory flavor I always crave. I'm definitely coming backto try more dishes from their menu! read more

Delicious hong Kong style food! Amazing portions. This place just recently opened and I can't tell you how great the food is.

Sand Storm Chicken wing was bomb, so was the salted egg yolk enoki mushrooms, coffee pork was yummy, but slightly saltier than I liked, pan fried noodles was very crispy and my kids loved it. Overall food quality was really good. Service was a little slow, but I think it's b/c they were short staffed. I would def come back to try the other itesm. read more

4.5 STARS Go Chicken? I say, Go Beef. Go Pork too. Cuz chicken is not the only thing they do well. Soft opening today, Go Chicken took over the short-lived Wok Up (new owner). Currently open for takeout and dine-in. M E N U Cantonese fare with modern twists (espresso ribs, truffle duck fried rice, honey walnut prawns w/ cranberry aioli, etc.) and HK wonton noodle soup Suggestion: Adding brief one-line descriptions for the less obvious dishes. For example, the spareribs w/ ube is a specialty from the chef's home country, but without any context, I had no idea how it's prepared (braised? stir-fried? deep-fried?). F O O D * Sandstorm Chicken Wings 风沙鸡亦 (10 pc-$14.99) Crispy, meaty wings with a golden-brown crust and juicy interior topped with hella fried garlic (the sand) and chili peppers. Their spin is the use of aromatic Sichuan peppers for a light numbing spice. * Beef Brisket Stew Rice Roll Crepe 牛腩肠粉煲 ($16.99) While the wings were delicious, this was my fav of the two. Noodle rolls (cheung fun) are smothered with slow-braised, meltingly tender beef brisket (rough flank) and served in a sizzling claypot. The chewy noodles rolls absorb the savory, ginger infused sauce while the heat of the pot lightly crisps the noodles, enhancing the texture and imparting a subtle smoky flavor. Ask for a side of their housemade chili sauce! S E R V I C E Friendly, gracious owner and staff. I ordered additional items to drop off to a friend nearby and the owner kindly offered to help me bring the bags to my car. A M B I A N C E Modern, casual space with a dozen tables and an open kitchen. Overall, solid soft opening day one. The owner raved about the spareribs w/ ube so def coming back for that! read more

Dry Cooked Chicken Tenders with Ube (千烹紫薯鸡)- sticky sauce with crispy chicken was very tender and flavorful. Small bites of ube in the dish was nice with the chicken but not sure if it added anything to the dish Caramelized Spareribs with Ube (焦糖紫薯排骨)- sticky sauce over these flavorful spareribs was great to have. Very similar feeling with the chicken dish we had though I preferred this one over the chicken dish Black Truffle Duck Fried Rice (黑松露鸭肉炒飯)- flavorful and the black truffle was not super over welling the dish which I find a lot happens with black truffle anything. Was concerned that eating this with all the other foods would be too much but it actually worked well together Golden Egg Yolk Mushroom (金沙茶树菇)- crispy and flavorful appetizer. Nice fun bites of seafood mushrooms and salted egg Found this place randomly one day walking around and wanted to try it. Very conveniently located near the muni stop. Parking can be a bit challenging with street parking in this area. Overall loved the dishes we tried and looking forward to coming back again. The chicken and pork dishes reminded me of santung in sunset. I think I still like santung a bit more but this place has a lot more variety of good dishes in my opinion. read more

===TL;DR=== - G8. Beef brisket stew rice crepe roll - A7. Sand storm chicken wings - E3. Garlic green beans ===TMI=== For those of you unfamiliar with this area, they're located right next to Shabu House (the only thing I recognize around here). Primarily meter parking. Not a huge space inside but enough for a couple of tables and one big one towards the back. The food came out fast. Surprisingly the green beans were done nicely, flavorful and crispy. The beef brisket stew was alright. The cut of brisket was a good mixture of lean and fatty parts and the rice crepe roll was a good choice to absorb all the sauce. I quite enjoy their sand storm chicken. I asked what that is and the respond was "similar to salt and pepper chicken". -shrug- they were the large party pack and they were juicy inside. Flavor was very subtle tho. I wish they had Hong Kong milk tea or iced lemon tea on their menu. read more

Really good fried chicken at a good value. Definitely out does the Panda. They have a pretty big menu with a lot of different offerings will need to test them out more. Hopefully they last longer than Wok Up did. Taking away a star since their time estimates for take out were slower than anticipated but hopefully that gets better with time. read more

New, clean, easy to order via QR or in person. Sandstorm fried chicken is freshly fried made-to-order . May be the last item to come out. But it's very good. Beef noodle soup is a solid people pleaser Truffle Duck fried rice. I loved the bigger portion size. It's a well flavored dish. But did not taste truffle or duck. I'm sorry. *There is a charged for tea ~1.50 pp. Get water if you don't agree with tea charge. Generally loved this place. Will repeat. read more

This new Chinese restaurant is serving fried chicken with ube! The sticky sauce itself is not ube flavored, but it is a sweet & spicy sauce that goes so well with the ube pieces and lightly crisped, juicy chicken. If you're not a fan of chicken, they also have a spareribs version too. I also tried their boiling bowl of stew that has rice crepe rolls, beef brisket, and beancurd. Everything was super fresh, flavorful, and well cooked. Service was very friendly and the food came out fairly fast. The restaurant itself was very clean with quite a few seats and tables with one larger round table in the back. read more

came here around 6:30 pm, instantly sat and they give you a physical menu or you could use a qr code menu and order from your phone, both convenient! tons of street parking! it took a little bit for our food to come out, but it was worth the wait. what we got: jasmine tea - refreshing but probably not on one of the hot days of sf lol dry chicken with ube - game changer, changed my life actually i'm not joking this place has phenomenal chicken and the ube pieces are to die for as a filipino. cucumber - refreshing seafood crispy noodles - love the crispy bits, tasted so good together and the shrimp and sauce brought it all caramelized pork short rib w ube - i was so excited i forgot to take a picture but it was as good as the chicken, if you dont eat pork, i would suggest the chicken. highly recommend for the chicken with ube itself ! read more

Got three things to try, and they were decent. The golden yolk mushrooms were a fun snack, and the sandstorm chicken was very popular based on all the reviews. I thought it was fine, the chicken was nice and crispy. The Mongolian beef was a little tough for my liking, and I probably wouldn't get it again next time. read more

Found this place on Yelp, and tried it for the first time and it was so delicious! They recently opened and the owner was very sweet and friendly to everyone! We ordered the bang bang chicken wings, honey chicken wings, sautéed green beans, and xo sauce rice noodle roll! My personal favorite were the green beans! I really love sautéed green beans! The chicken wings were very tender and juicy! It's hard to find restaurants that have xo sauce rice noodle rolls so I was very surprised when they had it! The restaurant itself was very clean and modern! Definitely will be coming back! read more

NEW Find. An impromptu family dinner landed us at the 2 1/2-month-old (opened February 25, 2026) spot, Go Chicken 雞運來, located near our neighborhood at 2608 Ocean Avenue in Lakeside, San Francisco, CA. WOW! Exceptional Cantonese fare with a nouveau twist. What we ate: Sand Storm Chicken Wings 風沙雞翼 Insanely crispy, moist, and flavorful. I place them among the top fried chicken wing spots in the City. Golden Egg Yolk Mushroom 金沙茶树菇 Creative and delicious. That salted egg yolk batter kicked these mushrooms to another level. Caution: highly addictive. Beef Brisket Stew Rice Crepe Roll 牛腩肠粉煲. Perfectly cooked. Tender, savory brisket and al dente rice rolls in a rich, savory sauce. Black Truffle Duck Fried Rice 黑松露鸭肉炒饭. Another amazing plate of heavenly bliss. Sautéed Green Beans 干煸四季豆. Super fresh and tender with a crisp bite. Excellent "wok hei 鑊氣," a quintessential hallmark of Cantonese stir-fry dishes. Loved every dish. Flawless preparation and presentation. Wonderful service. A simple space, elegantly and tastefully appointed. A fresh gem in our beloved City -- and a winner! This new restaurant easily captured my palate and soul. And so, I SHALL RETURN. read more

We walked in & were seated right away for our early dinner. Ordered bang bang chicken wings, salt/pepper spareribs, honey garlic eggplant, beef chow fun, & dried scallop fried rice. Everything came to the table hot & quick. We found the ribs a bit tough & hard to chew, the garlic eggplant was kinda like a sweet & sour sauce, chicken wings were crispy & hot, beef chow fun was good, I thought the portion was a bit small for the price, but the fried rice was a generous size & tasty. The service was good, but after we received everything we ordered, we had to flag the waitress down to get more water & chile oil because they didn't come our way again. Not the fault of the restaurant, it's a family, casual place, but that doesn't mean that people should let their kids yell & scream in there! Come on parents, set some limits on your kids! Not everyone wants to hear all of that. read more

Go Chicken - Their 2 types of chicken n pickle appetizer - Chinese Near Me - San Francisco, California

Formerly known as Wok Up, but now named go chicken. Food menu almost the same. Tried their wonton, beef chow fun, tomato beef fried rice, seafood crispy noodle, sandstorm chicken wings, spareribs with ube. All our solid options, but I wish they had the baked pork chop like they did previously. The only thing I found a little odd was that for the tomato beef fried rice, the tomatoes were just diced and sprinkled on top. I thought it would be "chowed in" like tomato beef chow mein, but the rice was still tasty. The lone server lady is nice and always gives suggestions if you're not sure what you want to order. read more

The reason why I have my rating at 3/5 is because of a few reasons. I would rate the food hands down 5/5!!! FOOD IS PHENOMENAL! I will add photos next time for food. The Espresso pork ribs was so good, I can pour that sauce in my latte! Sandstorm chicken was also very flavorful. The staff are very friendly and accommodating! They keep the place "clean" but UNFORTUNATELY, what I noticed about how they handle food and dirty dishes was very poor. If I can give a negative point on sanitation, I would. The staff are wearing gloves.. HOWEVER.. it is the exact same gloves that they use to grab dirty dishes from customers that got done eating, same gloves they use to spray and wipe the table to clean, AAAAAAND same gloves to put new plates, grab freshly cooked food from the kitchen to serve to tables, and to grab utensils. SAME GLOVES ALL THROUGHOUT. Please change gloves at every encounter, or better yet, just use your hands and wash hands when you are supposed to. Please change how you handle food that people consume. Food is amazing, I will just get food there to go so it won't be handled by the floor staff. read more

Go Chicken - First time here on Go "Chicken" - Chinese Near Me - San Francisco, California

Pretty good. I had the won ton beef brisket noodle soup, salt & pepper chicken wings, and chicken chow fun. Everything was good, fresh, and nicely flavored. I love Hong Kong style won ton noodles. These were not bad. The won tons had crunchy shrimp. The noodles were fairly crunchy and snappy. The soup had good flavor, not exactly traditional Hong Kong taste but good. The beef brisket had good flavor and was tender. The chow fun ingredients were all really fresh, especially the noodles, which were nice and soft. The chicken was tender, moist, and unique. The chicken wings were probably the standout. They have crispy down. The wings were really plump, fairly juicy, but nicely crunchy. It wasn't a batter. It was light and the flavor was much more mild than most places which are much more salty. It was nice. Although if you're accustomed to other average salt & pepper chicken wings, it might tasted under-seasoned by comparison. But, judging it standing alone, it was nicely flavored. Overall, pretty good place. With a few adjustments, it could be standout restaurant. But, I would definitely go again. Maybe even become a regular. read more

If you're craving Asian cuisine near Stonestown Galleria, this place is a must. Go Chicken just opened recently but it already feels like one of those go to neighborhood spots people are going to know about soon, and for good reason. The beef noodles were my FAV. The ribs were great. Their sandstorm chicken wings were so yummy. Super crispy, juicy, and really flavorful - we ended up getting more than we planned. We ordered many dishes but I didn't get a chance to take a picture of everything. Food came out hot, fresh, and super comforting. The portions are actually big for the price too, which makes it even better. It's one of those places that just feels consistent and easy to come back to. 10/10 would recommend if you're in the area and want a guaranteed good meal. read more

Wonton noodle was fantastic. Good size wontons, bouncy noodles and their wonton might be the best in SF, others are making them smaller and smaller, less shrimp and more pork fat. We ordered a second one just to make sure its good. The chicken with mushrooms was excellent as well, simple but well executed. Try adding some Thai basil, just a suggestion. Keep up the good work, driving from Fremont for your wonton soon read more

4 out of 4 dishes we had were extremely excellent and I would order all of them again! - Braised beef rice roll- sizzling hot, rice rolls had a bit of crispy and the beef stew was super tender and flavorful -Crispy seafood noodle - perfectly poached toppings with good crispy gone soggy noodles -Dry fried chicken w ube - perfectly fried large chicken bites with not too much breading -Pickled cucumbers - actually maybe my favorite???
