The Scene – Popular with San Francisco's restaurant cognoscenti, Chinese families and everyone in between, this Chinatown destination is hopping every night of the week. The blond-wood bar promises elegance, which is delivered in an upstairs dining room that's beautifully decorated with silk-screened prints and sectioned into smaller banquet rooms. The boisterous downstairs room is good for families. – – The Food – Fresh-from-the-tank fish and shellfish are the hallmarks of this classic Chinese menu--from the nearly greaseless, deep-fried, salt-and-pepper crab to the…

Horrible Service, Horrible Atmosphere

by AimeeGeorge

I should have known when the hostess seated us. Right behind her our would-be waiter was swatting flies with an electronic tennis racket fly zapper. Everytime he hit one it would zap like a mosqito zapper people have in their back yards. He was flagged over to our table, wiped the fly guts on his pant leg, grabbed his note pad and proceeded to tell us what to order. Which would have been ok if they had brought us our food! 45 minutes into waiting for it, and hungrily watching everyone around us get served, I asked where our order was. No response. 15 minutes later I decided to leave....I was on my lunch break. What a waste of time. NEXT TIME I AM GOING TO WING LUM ON POLK. LESS CROWDED. BEST WON TON SOUP IN THE CITY. MUCH BETTER PRICING.

  • Pros: Watching the Waiters Use the Electronic Flyswatters.
  • Cons: The Dead Flies fall on the tables in the dirty dining room.

Disappointment

by allen17

The restaurant looks good on the outsde but on the inside it looks dirty. The dishes are dirty and the service is poor. The food is not so good. You should not come here.

Will Never Eat Here Again Until Shark Fin Soup is Removed

by FreqTravelers

I was very upset when I found out that Shark Fin Soup was on the menu. I should have got up and left that moment, but I didn't. Regardless, I feel terrible that I didn't leave. After watching the movie SharkWater, I've become very passionate about saving sharks and educating friends about the movie. Thousands of sharks die only for their fins and thrown back into the water to drown. We need sharks in our ecosystem to survive. One very important way is to not order Shark Fin Soup or even better, not support restaurants that have it on the menu. I have written a letter to the restaurant asking them to remove the item from their menu.
