Food is overpriced, but it's understandable in San Francisco. Menu has very new and interesting food options that you don't see everywhere. odern interior design. Very crowded, need to wait.

I ordered the beef stew & tendon with dry noodle + cold milk tea. Everything tasted well. The beef stew and tendon is well done - tasty and tender. The noodle is chewy and it comes with soup. The milk tea is well made too. They also have a welcoming atmosphere and good service. I ordered bake pork chop with rice to go and am enjoying it at home as I write this review 😅!

I satisfied overall, visited there many years ago and came again - service actually has a lot of improvement, new items appear on the menu. The sauce of food maybe a bit too sweet to me-I got salmon iron plate

The service was very good. The clerk greeted us warmly and recommended desserts to us. The milk pudding was very well done.
I ordered Hong Kong-style milk tea, black truffle prawn pasta, corn chips, sizzling beef rice, and typhoon shelter eggplant. Everything was delicious, the ingredients were fresh, and the food was served very quickly.
I saw many neighbors helping me. Very good tea restaurant.

I recently had the pleasure of trying the sizzling beef with rice, and it was nothing short of spectacular! The beef was incredibly tender, cooked to perfection with a delightful sear that added a wonderful texture. The flavors were well-balanced, with a savory sauce that complemented the meat beautifully. The rice was fluffy and absorbed the rich, savory juices perfectly. The dish was served piping hot, with a delightful sizzle that heightened the dining experience. Highly recommend to anyone looking for a delicious and satisfying meal!

The piece of meat I got in the beef stew tasted and smelled sour. The guy who was probably the manager or owner refused to admit the mistake and said it was impossible for them to have spoilt food because of how busy they were. He pretty much called me a liar and said there was no point in discussing the issue. I was a regular patron even though their food wasn’t great but will never return because I can still remember how disgusting that piece of sour meat was in my mouth.
