Asian-American Food Co

Visited recently and got the green beans, salt & pepper tofu, veggie ho fun, and egg & chive dumplings. While I wasn’t blown away by the food as they mostly serve the “can’t go wrong classics”, it was exactly the warm comfort meal I needed on a cold and cloudy SF day. When you step in the door, you’re transported to through time to the definition of an old school Chinese restaurant with limited seating and smells wafting from the kitchen.

The owner/front of house manager(?) does tend to upsell (ask if you want to also order a veggie or a noodle, etc.) - this happened to every single table when I was there. But the prices are reasonable and the food is good where I didn’t mind too much. Although just wanted to include that heads up as some others were definitely overwhelmed in the moment.

Food and service is great! Fast, attentive, and friendly service. Always refilling your drinks. We enjoyed the salt n pepper tofu, beef chow fun, and pan fried soup dumplings. Everything came out made to order and hot.

Great food and service. Not a lot of seating, though, and the interior is basic. No frills.

They take credit card now. Prices are ~$13/ 20 dumplings. It is more expensive than I expected, but for perspective, tortellini costs $11.50 at Costco these days

Damn good Shanghai soup dumplings!!

My family and I have been stocking up on dumplings from here for as long as I can remember. The ladies are always so sweet and efficient

DO NOT ORDER THRU GOOGLE AT THIS LOCATION. This location doesn’t use online order at all and only serves raw food. The fact that the order system is available as soon as this location opens can be pretty deceiving. Their other location serves cooked food but don’t take order from this location. Imagine placed an order and wait for 50 min and nothing happens (they do automatically accept your order, making cancellation and refund impossible). Went there and found out you can’t have your food bc they don’t use Google system at all. If you don’t speak Chinese then picking up your food (even if they are raw) would be almost impossible. Staff there is fine, if you speak Chinese. To the owner: please cancel your Google order function if you are ever able to see this.

Awesome place. Takes cash and card. New prices around $12/bag of 20

Great place to pick up good quality handmade dumplings. Good value and very tasty. I always have some in the freezer for quick meal or snacks. I like the current model where you tell them what you want. Before covid I would wander around looking in all the freezers for the items I needed. Now they quickly grab for you. Bring cash as this is a cash only operation. Take out only. You can go up the street for these dumplings prepared.

The frozen dumplings are delicious. The meat buns are also good. The aunts who make the dumplings are all from the north... so I can trust the taste... If you happen to have some freshly baked ones, try them. Basically, I go here to stock up from time to time. Goods. The price is reasonable in the market.

Great dumplings

AMAZING dumplings. Everything here is excellent and worth trying!! You can also buy dumpling sauce and vinegar here at comparable prices to the grocery store so it truly is a one-stop shop! The ladies working are super friendly.
