This is the best dim sum in SF. Lucky Fortune on Geary is also very good for very reasonable prices, but this place has got it going on (for a slightly higher price). Their service was fantastic, the restaurant was very clean and spacious (not super crowded like most SF restaurants are with tiny tables), and the dishes that they offer all taste authentic. There was this tofu/eggplant stuffed with shrimp paste dish that was really good. They used an X.O. sauce I think. Their Shanghai dumplings are pretty good, so was the siu mai & shrimp dumplings. I didn't really like their rice noodles with shrimp though. You have got to try the mini buns, I'm not sure what to call it, but it is yellow, has a crispy crumb layer on the top of it and creamy pudding (similar to) inside of it. DELICIOUS! Overall, great service, ambience, and chinese food. Not to mention validation for parking across the street!
Pros: Yummy food, spacious restaurant, very clean, great service, validated parking, ambience
Cons: NONE AT ALL
