50 Best Chinese Restaurants near Mill Valley

“The food was absolutely delicious, and I genuinely enjoyed every bite. Everything was flavorful and well prepared, and I had a great dining experience overall.

That said, I found the price to be very high compared to the portion and what you actually get. The food was definitely good, but at this price point, I’m not sure the value is there for me.

I really enjoyed the meal, but I’ll have to think twice about whether I would come back again because of the price.“

“I went there to see if I could eat there, but it was a take-out restaurant.
However, I ordered delicious food and enjoyed it when I got home.
I was grateful that the friendly staff told me about nearby parks where I could eat and explained things well.
There is also a parking lot, so park comfortably.“

“I have been to a LOT of Chinese restaurants. The General Tso and Sesame Chicken at Shang Hai Kitchen is by far the best I've ever had. Also their fried rice so so light and delicious.

10/10 would recommend. Fantastic food.“

“Nice spacious dining room with warm tones. Great food. Love the many dim sum options as well as other dishes available. Staff is friendly and helpful. We enjoy this place when in the area. Look forward to next visit soon.
Plenty of parking.“

“Great spot for dimsum. Service is super friendly and fast. Everyone was so great. Even though there are no push carts, I actually appreciate it because everything is FRESH and not sitting around for hours. Can't recommend enough. Don't miss this spot“

“Always great dim sum and dumplings.“

“One of my favorite restaurants in the city and the best Peking Duck I've ever had... every, anywhere. The host is amazing and all the servers are cool and super nice. If you can, seat near the chef that's cutting up the duck, watching him work is awesome.“

“I got the kid sized boba tea sundae and it's alright. Ice cream was more on the icey side. The sauce tasted caramel to me - I expected brown sugar or honey syrup. Boba was good. I'm not sure if it's intentional but the rice cracker was stale to me.“

“I tend to rate my stars mostly for food. I Had the Mongolian beef lunch. Everything came out how I hoped with a pretty good amount. The place is small, it can take a large party but I'm not sure how it is on the highest demand hours, but I got in just fine. The service was acceptable. But as I'm writing this an hour later, I'm feeling very satisfied.“

“Superb! The cooking show is very nice!“

“San Tung is definitely worth the visit! Their famous chicken wings absolutely lived up to the hype—crispy on the outside, juicy on the inside, and coated with a perfectly balanced sweet and garlicky sauce. Every bite was delicious! The portions were generous, and the prices were very reasonable for the quality and quantity of food. The restaurant was busy, but the service was efficient, and the food came out fresh. If you’re in San Francisco, this place is a must-try. We’ll definitely be back!“

“I had their pot stickers variety tray! Nothing but delightful 💟“

“California-style Cantonese cuisine! I really like the decoration style here, which always makes me feel better when dining here. The golden lotus chandelier and the gold and silver wire lamp are definitely the best decoration! 👍The pastries here are also worth mentioning! Pineapple buns, wife cakes, black sesame banana cakes with miso sugar!“

“The beef noodles soup is one of the best in the bay area with the broth so clear and most tasty of all beef soup. The hand made noodles tasted so fresh.
The soup dumpling was steamed to order so it took a bit long but came out deliciously.
Would like to come back and try the chive cake and cucumber salad.
Service was friendly.“

“The dumplings were absolutely delicious and full of flavor. The wrappers were soft and perfectly cooked, while the filling was juicy, flavorful, and well-seasoned. Each dumpling tasted fresh and was made with quality ingredients. The portion was generous, and the dipping sauce added the perfect amount of extra flavor. Overall, these were some of the best dumplings I’ve had, and I would definitely come back again“

“Great place for home style Cantonese comfort food. Good quality and value. Portion sizes are generous. Service is quick and efficient. Sunday evenings are packed for family dinners. Mid week it was relaxed as locals came and went to grab their takeout or grab a quick dinner. Every dish was spot on. Check out the Crispy Skin Chicken or Curry Beef Stew.“

“i’ve never had beef this tender in pho and the soup was full of flavor as well. when we had a problem with the food, they were so quick to make things right without an issue. service was very friendly and we didn’t feel rushed at all. would recommend“

“the absolute best way to recover from 20k steps walking around SF. what a treaattt!

The beef lamb and fish one is the best one that we had. Fish mushroom and shrimp chive egg ones were also good. Pork ear salad really opens up the appetite before the dumplings.

Overall, super cool place especially to watch the dumplings get made!“

“This is by far the best hot pot that I have ever been to. The staff were so friendly and attentive, and the food and broth were delicious. They had a variety of vegetable, meat, and seafood options, and the sauce bar was clean and well-stocked. I will definitely be coming back!“

“Good portions and a clean interior. It was pretty empty around 5:30 but started filling up by 6:30. Hospitality could use some work. No one greeted us when we walked in, so we waited about 5 minutes to be seated despite it being fairly empty. Once the food arrived, we were seated in a corner and had trouble flagging down a server for the check. The staff should be more attentive and check in more regularly but food was good“

“The best hot pot ever this is my second time with my family and we love it. The only problem is the parking it take us 30 minutes looking for parking.“

“食物美味，环境优美，服务很棒，下次再来“

“TLDR: decent selection and good quality ingredients but soup wasn’t very rich in flavor

I had the pork bone soup and it tastes salty but didn’t have much pork bone flavor. The quality of the ingredients were decent including the Wagyu beef which came out cooked nicely. 2 of us got to around $40 after tax and tip which isn’t really that expensive at all“

“Delicious food, large portions, affordable price. Run by the sweetest lady who was so patient and helpful. I ordered at the restaurant and I didn’t have to wait long for my order to be ready. I can’t believe more people aren’t talking about this place! I will certainly be back for more, after I finish the week’s-worth of leftovers. Just a heads up, it’s takeout only but don’t let that deter you.

Edit: came back again because the food was so delicious and affordable the first time around. This time I got general Cho’s chicken, tofu with vegetables (similar flavoring to the cashew chicken but no cashews), and pork fried rice (heaped with lots of pork!) I also got the cream cheese wontons which were divine“

“Went here right after a 4-mile hike at Muir and this place literally saved my life 😭 I was STARVING, thirsty, and about to die from exhaustion.

Perhaps my best decision today was ordering the Hoanh Thanh Mi Hai Ky (house special wonton egg noodle soup) and a Vietnamese coffee. Service was super fast and accommodating—they even made my coffee in a to-go cup so I could carry it out later.

My table neighbor got his food before me and his bowl made the WHOLE restaurant smell so good I lowkey started getting hangry like WHERE IS MY FOOD??!! 😭 (extremely impatient of me considering my food literally came out less than 5 minutes after I ordered 💀)

ALSO GET THE FRIED FISH CAKE (cha ca chien)!!! You will not be disappointed.“

“Benson and his wife are amazing and I'm happy to say that me and my family are regulars with them. We don't go there as often, but when we do, we always order from them. From time to time me and my father would have lunch there and chat with Benson and his wife. They're great folks and hard working. The restaurant is great, food is great, and the neighborhood that they're located in is great. Cozy and quiet, not too crazy, bustling but just enough to know that you can enjoy your food without rushing out the door.

Benson, or his wife, if you're reading this, you guys are great.“

“This place is as authentic as you can get. It’s a gem cause not many places serve rice rolls “肠粉”. This place is no frills - you order at the counter and pick it up there yourself. The food is served on disposable plates. There’s a wide variety of sauces provided for you to add yourself to your food. The special soya sauce is the best and most original way of eating it. I had the rice roll express special - it was alright. The wantons were decent but the soup was lukewarm and barely had any taste in it. The soy milk was freshly made in house. More effort could be invested in keeping the tables clean. Overall - this place is a gem if you’re looking for a real Chinese experience without breaking the bank.“

“loved it! duck was delicious!“

“I am very delightful to have found a Chinese cuisine nearby Marina neighbourhood! The atmosphere was very homey and staff were really warm and welcoming!

Food was so good! I especially love the sweet and sour fish. Quite crunchy on the outside but very tender and flavourful on the inside. My daughter who is not a fan of fish can't get enough of it!

The price of each meal was affordable and the food portion was generous. Also a lot of varieties you can choose from.

Already recommended to my friends and will definitely come back!“

“Great spot for all things dimpling, noodles, and cooked veggies! I came here for the first time on a trip 2 years ago and had to make a special trip back this time. My whole family loves it. We got a variety of noodles, dumplings and veggies. Our favorite things were the Dan Dan noodles and green beans. It’s located right next to Japan town in a cute shopping area. Will be back next time we’re in town!“

“Open once more and the Rice Noodle Rolls are back to original Grant Street quality with thicker noodle wrap outsides and more bbq pork inside! Same with the bbq pork Chow Mein!!“

“The food was great, I liked it very much, I will go again next time“

“I had a wonderful experience at Nan Hot Pot! The hot pot was delicious, with fresh ingredients, flavorful broth, and a great variety of meats and vegetables. The atmosphere was cozy and welcoming, making it a perfect place to enjoy a meal with family and friends. I would definitely recommend it to anyone who loves Chinese hot pot!“

“Very good food“

“The taste is very good, I will go there again next time.“

“Our daughter is obsessed with soup dumplings which we found at Fusion Dumpling. The traditional pork were great, but try the black truffle and wagyu soup dumplings. You won't be disappointed!“

“We just finished a delicious meal… we had a plate of “Combination Fried Rice, General Tso’s Chicken, Sesame Chicken, Orange Chicken, and Pork Pot Stickers” and everything was very tasty. I must apologize for the pictures showing our half eaten food but it looked so good I forgot to take pictures before we started eating.“

“LetsSweet Kitchen is a Hong Kong chaan Teng restaurant in San Francisco South the market neighborhood, across the street from the Porsche dealer. We were in the area and decided to give them a try. Highly rated at 4.9 on Google, 4.7 on Yelp.

The place is clean, Service, friendly and food solid. Prices are higher than Chinatown, of course. Parking is a lot easier here. If you're in the neighborhood and want some Hong Kong style Chinese food, this is a good bet. If you're intimidated by Chinatown, this is a great place to go.

Food Picks:
Brad beef brisket rice with four piece wonton ($22.99) is a special during lunch and includes a drink. Ample quantity and good wontons and sold braised brisket flavor. The Hong Kong milk tea was strong and not too sweet. 8.5/10

Black pepper pork chop and onion over rice ($16.85) had reasonable quantity and was cooked just fine. The sauce was on the peppery side. 8.5/10.

Overall - Very Good
Food - Good
Decor - Very Good
Service - Very Good
Value - Good

Would we come back - Maybe“

“Great Food and Service will always come back when visiting San Francisco“

“Everything is just great!!! From your time waiting till you’re served, is wonderful.“

“The most authentic Hunan cuisine I've ever eaten!“

“I was walking by and saw the large boba tea sign and decided to check out the place. I tried the Mango Pamelo Sago with 25% sweet and it was delicious. Friendly and helpful people too .
I will try some of the food items the next time I am there“

“Really enjoyed the Mala spicy fish fillet mixian! The broth was the highlight deep, flavorful, and super comforting. The fish tasted fresh and tender, and the noodles soaked up the flavor really well. The restaurant felt clean and cozy, and the service was friendly. There was no long wait when we went. The prices are reasonable too. Definitely will come back!“

“I give this place 5 stars great food good service. I would recommend Chang's Kitchen Restaurant for Lunch or Dinner. I was looking for a good place for Chinese food and this one is it. They have a very good verity of dishes checkout their menu.“

“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.“

“Classic Chinatown spot that delivers solid, honest Chinese comfort food. We ordered several dishes — a spicy noodle broth loaded with bean sprouts, scallions and chili oil that had real depth; a wonton noodle soup with generously filled dumplings in a clean broth; a sautéed offal dish with red onion and chili that was bold and well-seasoned; and what appeared to be a hot & sour soup with good body. Everything came out hot and fresh. The menu is trilingual (Chinese/English/Vietnamese) with a wide variety at reasonable prices. Service is efficient in true Chinatown style — don't expect pampering, do expect the real deal. A reliable stop if you want to eat well without fuss in the heart of SF's Chinatown.“

“We went to Happy Crane last night with a group for the tasting menu. Everything was exceptional - far and away the best meal we've had in SF in recent years. The tasting menu is a lot of food, so go hungry. They say it's five courses, but each course has multiple dishes. Preparation was terrific. Only limitation is that it's a little noisy so it's hard to hear if you are at a big table. We loved it and will go again.“

“I worked here before and when it first opened!!! Such happy memories and so happy to see it’s still thriving!“

“Yummy coconut custard bun! Can’t wait to go back and try more of the beautiful treats“

“If you're in and around Sausalito and want some pretty good Chinese (not the absolute best but good enough), then check this place out. Does get busy at times, but nice for lunch. Food portions are decent, and the staff is super friendly!“
