I was so excite to try this place, however very disappointed with the food. The Lumpia had no flavor the Fried Crab Cheese Puff just ok and the Sweet & Sour chicken was average.

Restaurant treats delivery services like trash. We're human.

Decent Chinese American fares, with really generous portions. The fog rolled in thick so their hot & sour soup hit the spot. Genuine chilli crisp on the table.

It seems they get their business mostly from takeout. Limited seating area only 3 small tables. Service is inattentive, though I did not come at a busy time. Missing utensils etc for my table.

Yum. What a find. IMO best in the Castro. Dumplings are fresh and not overcooked or too salty like other local restaurants on Castro. Great selection of Chinese and Asiatic foods. Good service and comfortable atmosphere. And the only Chinese restaurant I have been to on SF recently that has Chinese Mustard, which I enjoy, having been served with Dim Sum in the 90's. Although a bit hidden, will be back and will make it our Dim Sum and Chinese food destination in the Castro.

I just found this place today and I think their lunch special is a great deal. You get an entree with white rice, hot and sour soup, and a fortune cookie for ~$14. The entree is generous sized, so I have leftovers to take home as well. I got the Mongolian beef, and it was the perfect medium spicy level for me. Will definitely come back to try more of their menu. Hopefully, with others so I can try more things. :)

The restaurant has 3 tables inside, but also a couple of counter seats. They let me sit at a bigger table for lunch even though it was just me. Overall, a lovely lunch option.

It’s tucked away behind the gas station on 17th Street. So, the hardest part is just finding it.

This place is a gem. The owners are sweet, the food is fantastic, and the atmosphere is unique and cozy.

The rice is also yummy here. Big portions, fair price.

10/10 recommend the General Tso Tofu. It’s on the sweet side comparatively, but they can make it spicier on request.
