Hot and delicious Jook congee and Chinese donuts you tiao on a foggy day. It's hard to find an authentic Hong Kong style café with won ton noodle soup, jook, and the barbecued meats. The salt and pepper tofu were absolutely delicious as was the bitter melon. The sweet ladies inside were most attentive and accommodating. There was a lunch rush, but otherwise the service was highly efficient. The restaurant is very clean but not fancy. There are several large round tables to accommodate 8 to 10 people and then other smaller square tables for 2 to 4.

Reasonably priced standard American Chinese restaurant. This place has its own roast meats. They are okay, not great, but they do have their own instead from another place. I had the 雙拼 & the meats were cold but otherwise fresh.

Roast duck and bbq pork.

Came with friends for an afternoon snack. Each ordered a dish and shared. 3 people but had a lot of leftovers. Fried Tofu, beef Chow fun dried and Singapore fried rice noodles. Fast, friendly and efficient service. Food came out hot and tasty. Enjoyed!

燒味三拼/Together Three Items ($21.25) - 燒肉/Roast Pork, 叉燒/BBQ Pork, 燒排骨/BBQ Sparebis
Elena N.

Date: Sunday, February 23rd, 2025 Party of: 2 Meal: Late Lunch Delivery Time Ordered: around 3:15pm Time Arrived: around 30 mins later Delivered to: Outer Richmond Ordered via: DoorDash *燒味三拼/Together Three Items ($21.25) - 燒鴨/Roast Duck, 豉油雞/Soy Sauce Chicken , 貴妃雞/Kui Fei Chicken *燒味三拼/Together Three Items ($21.25) - 燒肉/Roast Pork, 叉燒/BBQ Pork, 燒排骨/BBQ Sparebis 28. 皮蛋瘦肉粥 / Porridge with Pork and Preserved Egg ($11.99) 119. 酸辣湯/Hot and Sour Soup ($12.50) 160. 春卷/Egg Roll: 6 ($8.75) *炒饭/Fried Rice: 1lb ($6.25) *炒面/Chow Mein: 1lb ($6.25) *Discount (-$13.63) The hubby and I were looking for a place to grab lunch. Since it was HH on DD and I've been wanting to try this spot, we decided to check it out. I got one of each meat they offered and tried their pei dan sau yuk juk. The hubs wanted a soup and carbs, so he added the rest of the items. The bbq meats meats were pretty good. Tho the empress chicken pieces we got were small and we got a lot of the butt / ends of the bird. The spareribs were kinda the same. Small and not meaty. Otherwise, the duck, soy chicken, and other two porks were a normal portion. The jook was okay. Not much flavor. I added more seasoning and another century egg to make it more savory. Other than the soup, most of the stuff the hubs ordered was not very good. The egg rolls were mushy inside. Why, we couldn't figure out. It was almost like they were filled with a paste. The chow mein was also sour. We couldn't figure that out either. I don't think it was bad as in spoiled, but we did throw this away. The chow fan was fine. Just very bland. I'd say stick to the meats and the congee and stay away from the fried rice and noodles. Glad we tried this during HH so we saved some cash. REVIEW #3714

BBQ Pork Buns
Anh T.

Had their BBQ Pork Buns to go, and service was The buns itself were slightly dry, but the meat inside was tasty, and the buns were soft.

Crispy pork, bbq pork, & duck
Ken L.

It's cash only unless you spend $30 or it's like a 3% extra charge for card under $30. I got the 3 different kinds of meat and an order of rice for $21 cash. Portions are large. Usually places only offer 2 kinds and sometimes won't have the crispy pork. This place had it all and even has seating inside. Parking is always difficult in this area.

This is the menu for the roasted and barbecue meat.
Mario T.

This is a sit down restaurant, but they do takeout and that's what I got. It looks like they specialize in different meats, as you can see from the reviews. But they also have a full menu that looked interesting. This is a very authentic place. I didn't see a single white person in there. That usually means service that isn't up to the standards of some diners, very affordable food, and freaking AWESOME Chinese food. For $15 I got a big plate of food that included 2 meats, rice and basic steamed cabbage. I came at noon and the place was mostly empty. The meat was pretty cold, which could mean it was yesterday's meat or it could just be how things go when you have meat hanging by the window. Either way, it was delicious. I probably wouldn't come here as a dedicated trip, there are other takeout places nearby that have a variety of vegetables to choose from. But I plan on coming back for a sit down meal soon.

Returned again recently for the warm and friendly service and huge variety of menu items. We tried several new items, but the tastiest items on this visit were the Special Order of Tomato Beef Crispy Pan Fried Noodles, Salted Fish Fried Rice and Fish & Tofu. Portions continue to be quite large which is great for lunch and/or dinner the next day! YAY! :0)

Formerly Five Happiness Restaurant, now it's a Chinese BBQ takeout & restaurant. Recently opened and newly renovated. You can do take out or eat in. We recently tried both. Firstly, the BBQ meats like roast duck, BBQ pork and Crispy roast pork are great. We also heard the roast chicken was great too but we haven't tried yet. It's also a tad less expensive than the prices on Clement St. A huge deal because of these inflation prices. Secondly, maybe they are still new and trying to find their sea legs, but their dim sum are not that great. Very thick skins and some of the dim sum tasted off. There are so many other dim sum spots on Clement that we would not recommend them for now unless you are adventurous like we were. Had good experiences doing takeout BBQ lunch plates and also gotten a whole roast duck (under $30) for visiting family, so we recommend that. Service was friendly and the ambiance lively. 3.5 stars rounding up. Conveniently located by the 38R and 38 bus stop on Geary Blvd and 6th Ave; next to the KFC/Taco Bell.

Stale overcooked meats
Brian N.

Primarily directed towards the multiple item bbq combo over rice - Do not order the char siu here! You will get stale old pieces. Not sure if it's because I ordered through Ubereats and they needed to offset their fees by giving garbage parts, but this is unacceptable. If I wanted beef jerky, I would go to 7-eleven. They really skimped on the other meats too, so really suspecting the delivery orders get the low quality parts. Unfortunately, would not recommend this item unless you like to gamble on your food quality & portions. Other dishes I have tried are fine, but the combo rice plate is incredibly inconsistent (char siu) so cross your fingers if you are ordering this for delivery.

Menu
Taesung K.

Feel like it's good to okay value at 15.75? Nothing too special - duck pieces were too meat and the cha siu pieces weren't particularly juicy but they weren't dry either. Restaurant was dead at 5pm on a Sunday but it probably one of the cleaner if not the cleanest restaurant in the area. I feel like they do more catering/ take out orders than not. I'd probably order again from them esp for their canto bbq but that's mostly bc the restaurant feels cleaner than the others in the area. Don't know if taste or value is really comparable.

Egg plant
Maria L.

The roast pork was delicious. The skin nice and crispy. The meat was well seasoned. The bbq pork aka char siu was also good. We also had egg plant and clay pot chicken. The egg plant was just so-so. I did not like the clay pot chicken at all. It was not flavorful. But I'm giving this restaurant four stars because of the roast pork and bbq pork and friendly staff. Will be back to try their soy sauce chicken.

Shanghai Dumpling King looks completely unassuming from the outside, but inside they are cranking…read moreout some seriously delicious food. The staff were friendly and super prompt about clearing empty plates and refilling our tea whenever we signaled it was done, which is always great as the dishes just get on coming! We ordered a bunch of dishes to share, and several really stood out. The spicy tendon was fantastic, shredded paper thin and swimming in a classic spicy sauce. The spicy lamb dumplings were another highlight, with an incredibly thin wrapper and a super flavorful and not gamey at all lamb filling. I also loved the stir fried rice cakes, which were sliced thin enough to avoid that overly chewy texture, and the stir fried noodles Shanghai style were classic and simple in the best way, with big chunks of cabbage and meat and just executed really (the chefs clearly have some serious wok skills!). Not everything we ordered was an absolute knockout as the vegetable dishes could use a bit more flavor and seasoning, but everything overall was good, and the portions across the board were very generous. The desserts were a last-minute decision and I am so glad we went for them. The lava custard buns were fluffy and amazing, with a molten salted egg custard inside, and the sesame balls had a satisfyingly crispy exterior that gave way to a perfectly chewy interior and sweet red bean filling. The value here is also excellent. We left absolutely stuffed and spent around $30 per person, which felt like a great deal for how much food we got and how much we enjoyed it. Highly recommend!

Modern decoration with touch of traditional Chinese accents. The food was 4 stars out of 5. -5 stars for presentation. -3.5 stars for the taste. The presentation is fancy and luxurious. We ordered both the scallops and abalone shui mai. The abalone is okay but the scallops ones are way better. We also ordered the lotus leaf with abalone. While it looks so fancy, the rice is really wet but not binding together. The flavor is lacking as well. The best dish was the Iberico cha siu (bbq pork). It was so tender and flavorful. All of their food would looks really good on IG but I personally prefer my food have wonderful taste than wonderful photos. The service was good overall but it is a little slow given how fancy the food looks like. Empty plates were not removed until requested or when new plates have nowhere to place. Price point wise..Definitely on the higher end but not too crazy especially this place is in the heart of SF. There is a parking structure next to the tea house but it gets challenging during the weekend. I would rather take ferry and grab a Lyft next time. Will I be coming back? Maybe but it will not be my top choice while I'm in SF. Will I recommend? Yes! You should absolutely try it for yourself!

It was a literal dark and stormy night so between squalls I geared up and headed down Guerrero…read moretoward 17th Street and swung down to Valencia for another perfect simple dining experience at Bao. I walked into the restaurant about 45 minutes before closing time at 9:30 PM and several other diners came in after I was seated. The unsettled weather made the people hungry for dumplings. Bao is warm and woody and serene on the inside, a great counterpoint to the bustle of Valencia at every hour. Upon entering there is a large window looking on to the kitchen prep area where culinary experts are often at work constructing the food diners later enjoy on their plates. Tonight a couple of wizards were in the process of making chicken potstickers. Even being vegetarian, just seeing how the dumplings and other items are made is like seeing secrets being shared. I love it and it sets the vibe for the restaurant. My order consisted of the steamed vegetarian buns and sautéed string beans. The buns come out beautifully presented and taste even better: the bun itself is just slightly sweet and that sweetness adds an amazing dimension to the chopped fresh vegetables inside. Can't tell you what any of these veggies are individually and I don't care, they are so good. Next came the sautéed string beans and the sear on the beans themselves was perfect and smoky and delicious. The crispness of the sautee makes the string beans a lovely pairing with the soft yummy of the steamed buns. Last came the sesame balls as a sweet meal ending. I love donuts and fresh-made sesame balls are similar to a donut hole just with a filling that is actually food and so sweetly tasty. The outer fry was crisp and the insides absolutely perfect. Three dishes, all fantastic, and I walk home happy and thankful to Bao for a great simple meal!

The baked bbq pork buns are sweet with a decent amount of filling. The deep fried dumpling is plump, juicy, and crunchy. The shrimp and chive dumplings are my favorite. It's full of shrimp with a slightly thicker skin, which I think adds a nice chewiness. The veggie egg rolls were okay. I personally wouldn't order those, even if I was craving them. The spare ribs had a really nice savory flavor from the sauce. The egg tarts were okay. I need to note that these bags are leftovers from the day, so they're not as fresh. But they held up the next day so I was able to stretch 2 meals out of them. I can't comment on service since these bags are only for pick up. But they quickly provide the bags once the window open. And it's a small space, with maybe 2 tables. So this place is probably best for to-go orders. Their 2g2g bags have more variety than their Chinatown location. Not sure how many dim sum options there are in the Mission, but I would go here if I was in the area and craving a shrimp and chive dumpling.
