I came here once today and I’ll never come again.
I observed the lady who makes the dumplings is also a waitress and cashier. She touched the mop, plate, water pitcher, and eventually cash - then went directly back to dumpling making without washing her hands.

We were also seated in the hallway, where we were pumped by the servers multiple times when eating.
I feel pretty sick seeing this and lost all my appetite. Please avoid this place or at least the dumplings for your own sake

Very Authentic to my home town. Delicious all around with hand made noodles, dumplings, and Flatbread.

Resturant definitely feels like an old Shangdong place serving the best fish dumplings this side of the Earth.

Highly recommend for those looking for homey comfort food but this ain't your typical Chinese place.

This is the most authentic Chinese restaurant I have been to in the Bay Area. Even my dad gave it his stamp of approval. Highly recommend the liang pi and da pan ji. You can really tell the noodles are handmade.

This place has no atmosphere and they don’t speak English but it’s the best Chinese food you’ll find in SF. Thankfully I speak mandarin and was able to ask them for some recommendations - we ordered the Xian cold skin, cabbage and pork dumplings, and the beef roll.

I could hear mandarin being spoken at most of the tables and people talking about which dishes they hadn’t tried before. Surprisingly, most tables when we went seemed to order a cold skin and a beef roll. The Xian cold skin was absolutely excellent. The chili oil sauce came out perfectly savory and it was the perfect accompaniment to the super wide and thin cold noodles. Also, the dumplings and beef roll tasted even better dipped in the sauce. The dumplings were super juicy and savory - I don’t know how they mix their fillings but it is out of this world good. The beef roll was a classic and also delicious.

We also saw a tray of big puffy buns in the front and asked the server about them. They are stuffed with eggs, beef, or pork so we bought a four pack of the pork ones to take home and tray.

Seriously delicious spot and well-priced. Highly recommend to anyone looking for authentic Chinese cuisine!

The BEST Chinese food in the city! I will take an hour bus ride with no complaints just to eat the cold noodles.

Wheelchair accessibility: Small shop but ground level with plenty of pull up tables and very close to the Taraval bus

Chicken noodle soup was $13 before tax and tip - hard to find such prices nowadays. Portion was big and they didn't skimp on ingredients. Would come back here.
