“The food was a great mix of Latin and Cantonese flavors. It brought back many childhood memories of Chinese food in Northern Mexico while growing up. The owner was extremely warm and welcoming in sharing her cuisine that is from her home and heart.“

“I ordered the Drunken Noodle beef & Shrimp pad Thai
Drunken Noodle Beef is a solid 100/10
Just amazing. Best beef noddles I’ve had in a minute
Savory, delicious , amazing
, and looks great
Shrimp pad Thai is a solid 2/10
All u can taste is just spice not heat spice but just spice. And shrimp was like shredded chicken and like over done to the Max.
This place deserves 5 stars for the beef noodle alone.
I had a couple bites then had to share sorry.“

“We came here for weekend lunch ayce shabu shabu, and it was fantastic!! Both the wagyu and Japanese pork are of great quality, and the special presentation for the meat just gave this meal an elevated touch. We also really enjoyed the small appetizer plates all of which were refreshing and well done. HH drink pricing was an excellent deal. Katie was very friendly and extremely thoughtful - this is our new go-to place!“

“Such great food and people. We were hungry driving around looking for that magical parking spot next to an acceptable eating spot bingo! We found it all at Gai. Unsure of what kinda of cuisine I said take the chance they’ve got a chicken on the sign so it’s actually food. And boy was it good. Delicious. Freshly prepared Asian Thai or Vietnamese food. I got the Original Chicken Rice bowl with side of broccali. My friend got the salad with Tofu. Both great. He sauces are fresh and flavorful. One is quite hot which I love. I recommend it. And as we sat there from 1:30 pm to 2:30, there were multiple to go orders being picked up. I think there were about 5 orders at a time rotating. Fresh Fast Full of Flavor. We hit the jackpot!“

“Lunch at Julie's has become a ritual now. I am there at least 1-2 times per week. What a great selection of food that you can have fairly quickly. Got addicted to the Japache noodles from here. I think about them in weekend and then Monday afternoon here I am with a plate full of them.“

“I just came home from Japantown. The lady that worked there was so nice! I think she is the owner. Service was fast. The food was acceptable. It is on the dollar store side of the mall, so I didn't have to fight the crowd over at the busy side, that is a plus.“

“The most scenic place to get your Filipino fusion food! They have multiple outlets in the City, but this one has the best views. They're in the back of the Ferry Building and have outdoor seating specifically for their restaurant. Kick back and enjoy a sisig burrito while checking out the Bay and ferries.
I always go for the sisig bowls which are super filling. My husband tried the Longanisa Chopped Cheese which came in a hoagie-like roll. It paired well with the Engkanto Beer. Service is quick, and they'll call your name so make sure to grab a prime seat on the Pier.“

“Just in town for a conference for a few days and found my fave go-to spot for onigiri! The unagi is especially yummy, I really enjoyed their wakame salad, and the tempura purple yams were delightful! Portion sizes were perfect and priced well. I’ve already been twice and plan on visiting them again before I head home. Not a bad walk from the south part of Union Square - worth it!“

“Wonderful restaurant, Absolutely outstanding experience! This Chinese roast duck restaurant delivers perfection in every detail. The duck is incredibly crispy on the outside, tender and juicy on the inside, and carved with impressive skill right at the table. The flavors are rich but never greasy, and the accompanying pancakes, scallions, and sauces are all beautifully balanced.
The service is warm, attentive, and efficient, and the staff make you feel truly welcome. The atmosphere is elegant yet comfortable—perfect for both family gatherings and special occasions.“
“Fast to order and deliver to the table. Young lady taking the order was efficient and kind. Lots of parking and seating. All level ground. Clean restrooms. I got the teriyaki salmon on the fried rice with veggies. Outstanding!“

“We dined in for a late lunch as a family of three. The yelp waitlist indicated a 10-20 minute wait and we were surprised to receive a text 5 minutes later.
Food came out hot and fresh. We ordered the Juicy Pork Bao, Pork Xiao Long Bao, Zha Jiang House Special Bean Paste with Mince Pork, Boiled Pork and Chive Dumplings and Fried Tofu.
While there is no separate kids menu, our thirteen month old loved his food so much that he stayed in his high chair for the duration of the meal.
Would highly recommend!“

“I go after school most days before walking home or volleyball games and practice, and I get the guava snow with oreo crumble, and it's really good.
The only thing that keeps me from giving them a 5 is the prices. Don't get me wrong about the inflation issue, but like some of the prices are unreasonable. They should lower it.
Go here if you have the money but the workers are really nice. Just go to Starbucks, it's more reasonable there.“

“Delicious Thai food. We were so pleased to find a Thai restaurant where sweet is not a prominent profile in their food. We loved the sour pork, the banana blossom and squid, the eggplant, and the beef jungle curry - they were delicious and had so many little creative touches. The highlight of the meal for me was the smoked young coconut ice cream. So many nostalgic flavors that I have not had outside of Thailand. The Thai smoked candle flavor, the candied water palm fruit, the young rice syrup - just so special. Such a joy to be able to have this in San Francisco. Brought me back to precious moments in Thailand visiting family.“

“Food (5/5)
Each plate was amazing. I especially liked the potato pancakes, uni toast, rice cakes with beef, and the Galbi steak. The meat was tender and juicy and well-seasoned.
The rice crispy/syrup ice cream and matcha lava cake were great as well.
Service (4.2/5)
The wait time between plates were somewhat variable. First dish (quail eggs) came quickly, but there was some wait between other dishes. They also could’ve come quicker after giving us the bill. Also, since some dishes were a bit messy (eg, the potato pancakes with all its crispy toppings) it would’ve been nice if they could help wipe the tables between some dishes.
Atmosphere (4.5)
Pretty nice and elegant environment, overall. Spacious bathrooms. The section we were in were a bit echoey and loud, however (but it was better after the large parties had left).“

“What a fantastic spot in the financial district! We were staying in town for a wedding, and this was such a great spot close to our hotel. Patrick (the owner) and his team were all a 10/10! Can’t wait to return.“

“This dinner was about as perfect as I could have hoped for. I will admit, I was nervous at first. Ive been to Alinea in the past and was very disappointed by the experience. I was worried this may also be over-hyped, but wow! What a dinner. The food was spot on in every instance with a generous amount of food. They had so much creativity and innovation throughout the dinner. The staff was so kind. Not stuffy at all. I loved it. My girlfriend and I came for her birthday and they made her a cake, which was a great final touch to the already flawless dinner. We hope to return again!“

“No wait to sit down which is uncommon for dim sum in the area. Friendly and quick service despite being understaffed. They were out of quite a few items on the menu. The scallion oil noodles just tasted like soy sauce, I don't recommend those. I do recommend the bbq pork buns, string beans, and pork sheng jian bao. The last two are a must order!“

“I visited Mashita Galbi Jjim on a Sunday evening around 6 PM with a party of four, and to my surprise, there was no wait—we were seated right away. With only two staff members working the floor, the restaurant still managed a steady rhythm of service. The space itself is inviting, with a high ceiling that makes it feel airy, a clean bathroom (always a plus), and a generally cozy environment that sets the stage for a comfortable meal.
For food, we ordered two dishes: the pork tonkatsu and their signature galbi jjim. The tonkatsu arrived quickly, golden and crispy, delivering the kind of satisfying crunch and savory bite you’d expect from a well-executed cutlet. The galbi jjim, however, was a different story. It took about 30 minutes to reach our table, which seems to be the norm based on observing other tables. While the wait did build anticipation, it also disrupted the pacing of the meal. When it did arrive, the flavors were solid—rich, hearty, and braised with care—but not quite at the level of depth or complexity I’ve had elsewhere. Personally, I still prefer Daeho’s version, which leans more memorable in both flavor and overall experience.
Service was professional and efficient given the limited staff, though not particularly warm or engaging. It felt more functional than personal, but everything we needed was taken care of without issue.
In terms of ambiance, Mashita balances casual comfort with a slightly polished feel, making it a nice spot for a relaxed meal with friends or family.
Value-wise, the restaurant is fairly priced for the quality and portion sizes. While the food is solid and the dining experience smooth overall, I didn’t find it compelling enough to make this my go-to spot for galbi jjim.
Final verdict: 4/5. A reliable option with cozy ambiance and decent execution, but not quite distinctive enough to stand out in a city with strong competition.“

“Our family of four adults thoroughly enjoyed the ambience and outstanding cuisine at Chotto Matte in San Francisco. It is located on the rooftop of the former Macy Men’s Building at Union Square. Looking forward to going back on a warmer night when we can also enjoy the outdoor area. The indoor area offers a beautiful view of city lights and romantic dining with music playing. The sound is quiet and you can hear everyone at your table and are not bothered by conversations of surrounding tables. The decor is artistic and the lighting is perfect, including the lamps on each table. All dishes were delicious and created with pride, as a work of art, including the delicious Pisco Sour with tiny hearts formed on the froth. Menu items we chose are very memorable and are calling for us to return! Each plate was shared by the four of us, using chopsticks to grab our bites. The first item that we had was the Shishito peppers, grilled with an amazing sauce lathered on them. Next came the Jumbo Shrimp Tempura that Bob requested. It was lightly battered so not to overpower the shrimp. The server flamed the Tiger Sushi Roll made of Ell, avocado and seasoned corn at our table. It was a thing of beauty and unique taste. My favorite items were the Black Cod Aji Miso and our last two dishes which melted in your mouth, Australian Grade 8-9 Wagyu Beef and a side of Purple Potato Mash with Black Truffle and Applewood smoke. The dessert menu looked amazing but we were to full to eat another bite. Looking forward to trying dessert on next trip. Definitely worth the drive from San Jose for a special occasion at a special place.“

“So incredibly pleased with our experience at this restaurant. From the service to the food everything was perfect.
We came in when they were only doing take out, which we said we were more than okay to do, but they insisted to set up a table for us.
We got the Thai iced tea, salad rolls, pot stickers, pho, and egg noodle dish. Each was so incredible, and some of the best of the dishes Ive tried. Portion sizes were massive, a great price for what you get.
Our drinks were refilled as soon as they were close to empty, and we were given any sauce we could’ve needed, the service was so quick.
The staff was so friendly would highly recommend, a hidden gem:)“

“Ordering is done via a pad - no cash! And : NO TOILET. That is had. And it is a dine in location. I thought that is a requirement. Also, traditional banh mi is $11.50 but if you order it, it has a $1 surcharge for a traditional banh mi. Makes no sense and seems like a scam. Place is nicely designed. Clean. Wait is a bit longer than in comparable places. Food is good. It won some BEST OF MARÍN awards. The announcement that your meal is ready is done HOA a DMV like loud announcement….“

“This is my go to place for takeout when im sick or hungry/lazy past 930pm. I always get the kimchi soup with pork belly, seafood pancake, kimchi cold noodle, and more pork belly. Their banchan also includes a crunchy mustard seaweed noodle that is so addicting.
This may be my favorite korean restaurant in the city.“

“I was impressed by the freshness of all the ingredients, nori, fish, rice. I could not pay more but I was still hungry so I went another sushi place. There I got full, but the taste at Keiko is why you pay more. The authentic Japanese restaurant seems like it has died, as the cost of doing business is severe. There is no Japanese mood, Japanese chefs, but a few places have Japanese head waitresses. It is not the same as eating sushi in the old days. Nothing truly Japanese about sushi, served by Latinos, with classic jazz. Keiko is closer to authentic. Closer, expensive, still not really Japanese. Amerkatasdeska…“

“Tbk was not spicy enough, but I suspect they might have lowered the spice level to accommodate the majority customers who aren't used to the spice level.
