“What a really delightful find- at par with Hong Kong.

Was just walking by and decided to give this place a shot. soo worth it.

Seriously, this is the best wonton noodle soup i have had outside of hong kong.

Even the hot sauce was incredibly traditional, fiery enough to demand your respect, and ready to punish you if not taken seriously. The soup was fragrant, you could taste the freshness of the stock. the dumplings were fresh with firm prawsn in them.
the beef was cooked tender with just enough bite to make things exciting. the noodles were incredibly firm to the bite. omg i want to go back.

definitely worth coming in and trying!“

“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“

“We ended up here after being reeled in on the street by Gloria “the hustler”—and honestly, we are glad we said yes! The trek up a long flight of stairs leads to a rickety patio that feels exactly like an apartment fire escape overlooking an alley.Skip the alcoholic drinks (thankfully they were weak, given the stairs!), but absolutely stay for the food. The dishes completely make up for the sketchy atmosphere. The calamari was the absolute standout, and they even treated us to free green tea ice cream. Our waiter was fantastic, and leaving with a parting bag of goodies was a lovely, unexpected touch.“

“Every person needs and craves connection everyday. Someone to talk about your favorite show with. Someone to notice your new favorite sweater you put on. At Do Eat, my friends and I walked in expecting to fill our stomachs. Little did we know that our hearts would be filled too. Though some of the staff spoke little English, their smiles and service broke through the language barrier. Our group of 5 was quickly and comfortably accommodated. The food was delicious and the portions so generous as to allow leftovers. The taste of the food is now a only memory, and soon all remnants will be gone from our stomachs. What will not leave is the everlasting connection we made with the beautiful people of Do Eat. Thank you.“

Friendly staff and a clean restaurant. Would definitely come back!“

Barely any english, only canto, stern auntie serving you up, cash only, and hefty portions. Got the roasted pork for just $10 and it came with a ton of rice and some cooked cabbage. Pork was so tender and flavorful while the skin added the perfect crunch and fattiness. Cheers to my go to Chinatown.“

“In a recent visit to Chinatown, I was hoping to find an epic meal. There are so many options that it's hard to pick one. Using Google reviews I found this one and rolled the dice.

Every dish they brought out was exceptional. It's a small place so it took a minute, but well worth it the short wait. The server was awesome.

The wonton soup stole the show although the chicken wings were unbelievable. Spring rolls...wow. Plum sauce was house made and after the rolls were gone, we starting dipping the wings in it.

Well recommended.“

“Fantastic, quick spot to pick up authentic, fresh dim sum, dumplings, and more! You get great-quality food at a crazy inexpensive price, making this an easy place to recommend when you’re looking for something delicious without spending a lot.

Everything we tried was fresh and flavorful, and the selection makes it easy to grab a variety of items to share. It’s also perfect for a quick meal when you’re exploring Chinatown and don’t want to spend a lot of time waiting around.

I especially love that Delicious Dim Sum is located near Willie “Woo Woo” Wong Playground. It makes for the perfect family outing—grab some dim sum to go, enjoy a quick bite, and then head over to the park to let the kids play and hang out. Such a convenient and affordable combination!

Overall, a fantastic little spot for tasty, authentic dim sum at an unbeatable price. Definitely worth stopping by when you’re in the area!“

“All over social media, people are saying this place has THE BEST roast duck in the country! So I had to check it out for myself.... I got half a duck and this was plenty for my boyfriend and I to share.If I'm being picky, the duck was on the salty side. However, it's very flavorful and savory. Not very sweet like other places. The duck pieces didn't have a ton of meat on them, but the pieces that had more meat were pretty juicy.Overall, not the best duck I've had - but definitely good quality! I'd recommend it to those visiting SF Chinatown.“

There seemed to be plenty of locals in the restaurant so I decided to give it a shot. I spent around $40 got plenty of dim sum for the family to go around. The dim sum was hot, plump, and filled with meat!
