I dream about his Onion Cakes. I still dream about Chef Jia's onion cakes and peanut sauce! I try to replicate it - but it's impossible. I also love that his stir fry has sweet potatoes in it. I am a vegetarian and found a large amount of menu items I could choose from. I loved his rolling lettuce vegetables and still think that there is no comparison to Nanking. I always walked right in - an ate - no wait! I also remember seeing him and his wife walking down Kearny to work every day hand in hand! Love and miss Chef Jia!…
Editorial Review. Locals frequent this Chinatown restaurant for spicy Hunan specialties at rock-bottom prices.
DISGUSTING FOOD!. I just don't get it! We ate there last night (6 of us) and ordered a bunch of different things and were HUGELY disappointed! Almost everything we got was prepared in the same way: covered in batter, deep fried and then covered in a gloopy sauce. Even the fish fillet which I was hoping would resemble a fillet was like this. The only dishes where I could tell what kind of meat I was eating was the mushu chicken and that was mediocre at best. I will never return to this place nor recommend it. I am so disapponted I feel like I threw my money away and wish that I could take back the evening and eat somewhere else. If you must eat here, then the only thing I would order is the Chinese broccoli and rice- I wish that's all I ordered. We are embarassed that we brought people her.…
Delicious Cheap Eat. This place is great. I ate like a queen for 5 bucks. I had the spicy honey chicken. It was out of this world.It also came with soup and rice. Highly recommended. No line and fresh, sizzling hot food!…
This is the place for delicious cheap eats. I was walking around chinatown with a friend and saw the long line at House of Naking and no people next door. There were several newspaper/magazine articles about the place though. I ask a man coming out if the place was good and he said best honey chili chicken in town. In fact, that is what appealed to me when looking at the menu posted outside. Anyway, it was really delicious and a great value. The honey chili chicken was great and they have the best onion cakes I have ever had. They give you peanut sauce to put on it. Yummy! The hot and sour soup was very different from the usual stuff you get at most chinese places. It had chicken and shrimp and was very spicey. I am getting hungry for it just writing about it.…
