Hulu Wa China Bistro is a hidden gem in the Castro, offering a delightful dining experience with a range of delicious dishes. The restaurant is known for its famous siu Mai dumplings, made with love and tasting fresh. The sesame chicken remains a standout, cooked to perfection and tender. The bok choy pork buns provide a fun twist on a classic dish. The restaurant's portion sizes are great, and the atmosphere is clean and casual, making it an excellent choice for anyone looking for delicious and affordable Chinese food.
The location is very central in the Castro area, and the lunch combo prices are super affordable. The fried crab rangoon is filled with crab and well balanced, while the sweet and sour pork lunch combo is protein-heavy. The service is quick and easy, and there is no need to dress fancy. It's a perfect place for lunch or a late-night meal after enjoying the nightlife. Many customers also enjoy the convenience of takeout and delivery, often noting that the food arrives hot and plentiful, making it ideal for leftovers.
Customers have described the restaurant as offering decent Chinese American fares with generous portions, fresh and not overcooked dumplings, and a great selection of Chinese and Asian foods. The hot and sour soup is praised for hitting the spot, and the Chinese mustard is appreciated as a nostalgic touch. The lunch special, which includes an entree, white rice, hot and sour soup, and a fortune cookie, is considered a great deal.
