We had such an outstanding meal - a lot of that was thanks to the great recommendations by our server. The vibe of the restaurant was very cute. My husband and I shared the Mongolian beef, popcorn chicken, shishito peppers, cabbage, green beans, and clay pot rice. It was all excellent and so flavourful. We can't wait to revisit and try more!
Our favorite was the fried squab - perfectly crunchy skin but moist on the inside plus the seasoning was well balanced. I'll go back just for this dish. Beef chow fun was too salty and oily. It has potential though because the ingredients were fresh, the beef was excellent, and it had a nice smokey flavor to it. Our least favorite was the chili crisp pighead. The taste of pork was a bit strong for us.
One of the best meals I've had in a while, really fun to order a couple different dishes and share. Each dish had so much complexity and flavor. Also - the best staff!! Wow! They are so awesome. Will be a staple when coming to San Francisco.

Four Kings 四大天王 is a bustling Chinese restaurant that captures a youthful, nostalgic vibe. The walls are adorned with posters and photos of Hong Kong singers and artists from the 80s and 90s, while music from the same era fills the air. The space is not large, featuring mostly 2-top tables that can accommodate up to 3 people, along with a few 4-top tables. It is busy and can be crammed and loud, creating an energetic atmosphere with an open kitchen visible from most tables. The food is flavorful, upscale Chinese with a fusion twist. Highlights include the squab, known for its super crispy skin and tender meat, and the claypot rice with Chinese sausage and bacon. Other popular dishes include salted egg & squash croquette, salt & pepper squid skewer, fish fragrant eggplant, crab, Mongolian beef noodle, cauliflower, popcorn chicken, green beans, and escargot with milk bread. Some items, like the dirty chicken fried rice, stand out as exceptional. While the lamb skewer and mapo spaghetti may not impress everyone, desserts like mango pudding served with guava sorbet and strawberry sorbet are decent in portion. The service is very friendly and attentive, with many staff members working quickly. Reservations are highly recommended, as walk-in waits can be long. Although some dishes might be a bit high on acid or may not meet everyone's expectations, the hardworking crew and owners contribute to a dining experience worth revisiting. It is a must-try for those in the neighborhood, and setting a reservation 3-4 weeks in advance may enhance the overall experience.
