Cantonese Restaurants near Pacifica, CA

“The best place to eat Hot & sour soup in pacifica.“

“Great place to eat dim sum“

“Street parking can be hard but we were lucky to find one not too far away.

It was busy on a Saturday evening with what seems like a lot of regulars. We were a party of 5 and they sat us at a table for 4 and added a chair on the end. Once we ordered, they moved us to a big table. We ordered way too much for 5 people. Ending up taking a lot home.

Everything was very good. Except the veggie was a little too tough/mature. And the mixed mushroom with egg tofu was not mixed mushroom but only one type of mushroom. The egg tofu was very good with the broccoli.

The bbq pork with chicken appetizer was good too. The bbq pork was so juicy and flavorful.

Portions here are very big and prices are reasonable.“

“What a fabulous time! Very well done!! Fresh seafood, meats, congee, dessert!!“

“My family comes here or does take out once every month or so. Favorites are the char siu and duck which just hits the spot. Service is truly exceptional from being greeted at the door to attentive table service throughout. They are so welcoming to my child and that level of attention and care (consistently) is just so rare these days. Just a wonderful place all around.“

“Great consistently tasty food. Good selection of both seafood and non seafood items. My family loves celebrating birthdays here.“

“All I can say is wow. Hidden gem. Stopped here randomly and we got the Mongolian beef, sweet-and-sour pork and chilli green beans. They gave us free samples of the pork belly. Everything was amazing. Dare I say some of the best Mongolian beef I’ve had in the city.“

“Best dim sum in SF. Shark fin dumpling and deep fried pork puff are the best items. Low prices. No seating. To go only. Closes early, at 4 pm.“

“Nice place“

“We were a party of six, and all six of us found the food to be excellent. We ordered a 6-dish special meal that included a steamed fish fillet. I don't think it was a fresh fish, but it was large and plenty good. We were able to pick garlic noodles, which is one of my favorites, as one of our 6 dishes.“

“This is the best freaking Chinese food/dim sum with an amazing price point. MY FAVORITE SPOT!! I used to go to city college and their dim sum would let me get so much food for cheap, and keeping me fed throughout the whole day I would have at school. I love it there and they make everything authentic every morning it’s so bussin.“

“Our church had an anniversary dinner at Yan Peninsula restaurant yesterday. We have a delightful experience from start to finish. The quality of the food was fresh and tasty. The staffs attentive and friendly. We are enjoying a wonderful evening.“

“All the food is fresh, and choosing what's in season makes it even tastier. For larger groups, the big round tables come with the added bonus of individual hot pots built right into the table. It's easier to order dishes when you have a bigger group here ( 3+ people)“

“The king crab meal is very special - they make it 3 different ways!! We did steamed with vermicelli, fried with salted duck yolk and sautéed with noodles. You can also do sautéed with rice or steamed with egg. Make sure to call ahead and pre-order. The servers were very friendly and hard working. Can’t wait to be back!“

“Eats lot of good food and come out fast“

“Play, it's a popular sport now. I often play with friends on Saturdays and weekends.“

“Recently renovated and updated, the new owners have done a wonderful job with this place. Quick, easy but delicious food ready to go. Pan Asian with a mix of Hawaii is what you’ll be treated to at this quaint spot tucked away in Vis Valley.

Definitely recommend giving them a visit if you’re in or around the neighborhood.“

“Great food! Service was good. Theycould do a little better with the table cleaning and decor which would really elevate the experience. Seems like most folks were getting take out. The food was delicious and that's the most important thing to me.“

“Food is delicious dim sum, we were lucky to have a table in a private room cuz we had 17 people. It was only one woman wait staff to help us with food, it was not much service after they brought in the food and she really left us alone and we need more tea but no service until when we ready to leave then give us tea. That's really bad to me no tea for a long time and only refilling once! She must be so busy and we go outside help ourselves for finding boxes for leftover food. Be good to have good service with a smile too?“

“We had a great experience with Canton Restaurant! We ordered Mongolian beef, General Tso’s chicken, minced chicken with cream corn soup, and steamed rice—everything was fresh and delicious.

We were a bit disappointed the dining room closed at 8:30pm, but they were still kind enough to let us order to-go. Great food and service—we’ll definitely be back!“

“It’s really a to go place but surprisingly they offer a kitchen that will take orders and even customize your order. The staff is very nice and friendly. A few IYKYK things 1) It’s one of the rare places that still make mochi desert. They have a pineapple version and a peanut version. Both are really good. 2) Their bolo “pineapple” buns are also pretty good and they have it in a dedicated space with heat lamp. 3) they make soy milk from scratch. And it’s delicious.“

“點心新鮮熱辣👍👍👍 小菜價錢大衆化👍👍出品普遍色、香、味齊😋😋😋“

“Found this little gem while on a layover at SFO and the food was amazing! I had the Curry Sliced Beef Ramen and it was probably the best I’ve had. The ordering technology threw me off but I got over it quickly, it is 2025. As far as atmosphere…..just a bunch of people quietly eating lunch. I only gave the service 2 stars because it is an online order and someone just deeply it off at the table. Would definitely recommend though.“

“We’ve been heading over to The Night Market for the past few years! The classics are all good, Hainan Chicken, Beef Chow Fun, minced Beef over rice. But if you want to try something unique to The Night Market try the Longan Crispy Pork over rice. I can’t imagine a dish that so uniquely represents the Asian American experience. Finish it off with a mango Sago!“

“If you’re looking for the ultimate comfort food in San Francisco, you have to try the Fried Sticky Rice (生炒糯米飯) at Golden Coast Restaurant (1540 Ocean Ave). It is perfectly chewy, savory, and loaded with the best toppings crunchy fried peanuts, fresh scallions, and thin ribbons of egg that make every bite a textural dream. It’s the kind of dish that feels like a hidden neighborhood secret where the quality is consistently delicious and the portion is incredibly satisfying for the price. They are open every day from 10:30 AM to around 8:30 PM (and as late as 9:30 PM some nights), so you can drop in for a late breakfast, a solid lunch, or a full dinner. I’m already planning my next trip back just to have this again, but it’s definitely a dish that’s even better when shared who’s coming with me to grab a table and dive into a massive bowl of this sticky rice?“

“Plan to come early or reserve a table at this bustling Cantonese mainstay. The venue is filled with the chatter of families gathered over good food. The portions are large and service is fast. My family especially enjoy stewed soup 燉湯 (limited availability), the fried squab 炸乳鴿, giant clam, and eggplant 海味茄子, among others. The menu is in Chinese and English with some captioned entree pictures. Hope to return for a long time to come.“

“I had a good experience at this restaurant. It offers a variety of Chinese dishes and cuisine. Decided to try the chow mein here and it was pretty nice, though the boneless chicken was not my favorite as it was cooked by boiling in water rather than grilling or baking (apologies if I’m wrong and the chicken has to be boiled in water in Chinese cuisine). Other than that though the food was nice.

The staff was also okay, though they didn’t quite speak English well but did understand most of the things that I wanted. The place was clean and organized though. Overall, this is a good Chinese restaurant.“

“A real hidden gem. As someone who has spent most of my life in Asia, I can confidently say the food here is incredibly authentic, fresh, and expertly prepared. I've been back twice already and brought different friends each time, every single one has been impressed. I daresay the food here is better than many restaurants in SF Chinatown!

Don't let the name fool you: they serve much more than just porridge (congee). That said, the porridge is so comforting and delicious it might just bring a tear to your eye. What to order: The sweet and sour pork, roast meats, claypot seafood tofu... are all outstanding and honestly rivals dishes I've had at restaurants mentioned in the Michelin Guides. They even serve complimentary Chinese tea, which is a lovely touch.

This isn't the place to come for a trendy atmosphere or over-the-top service. Come for the food, and you'll leave very happy.

(Helpful tip: Their sign says Cash Only, but they will take card for purchase over $30.)“
