The food did not taste good.Only one waitress there.
There was only one person serving the customers.
She needs more help.
I had to ask for my rice 3 times.
The food took along time.The chicken claypot rice had no flavor.It was just rice,chicken and one piece of mushroom and bok choy.They did not put any seasoning on the food.They just dump the food in the claypot and cooked it.
The porridge was very thick with no flavor.

Rude Service and Language Barrier!!!!
My experience at this restaurant was extremely disappointing. I ordered a dish that was nothing like what was described on the menu. When I tried to address the issue with the waitress, she was not only unhelpful but also rude and did not speak English well, making communication nearly impossible. To make matters worse, the elderly lady next to me had a similar experience and was also poorly treated. This lack of professionalism and customer care is unacceptable. I won’t be returning, and I suggest you think twice before dining here.

For breakfast, lunch or dinner, ordering a lunch box is enough. There is also free soup. The healthy soup without MSG is very satisfying. I recommend the pork ribs cured rice or yellow eel cured rice or beef and egg rice. They are very delicious. There are also porridge and rice rolls. The snacks are very delicious. If you eat them at home alone, with a pot of rice and a bottle of beer, you will feel super satisfied and delicious.
For breakfast, lunch or dinner, it is enough to order a lunch box, as well as free soup, healthy soup without monosodium glutamate, which is very satisfying. It is recommended that pork ribs preserved rice or yellow eel preserved rice or beef and egg rice are very delicious, and porridge, rice rolls and snacks are very delicious. If you eat at home alone, a pot of rice and a bottle of beer, you will feel super satisfying.

Coming into San Francisco, getting some delicious Dim Sum was certainly a priority. Sun Maxim’s did not disappoint! There was such a great variety of food, which was all incredible. Xiao long Bao was served in what looked like miniature pie tins which was adorable, and made for a very unique presentation. Shrimp dumplings and bbq pork buns were also spectacular. Street parking was very accessible as well, with smart meters that just made everything easy.

Such good food and the woman who was running everything were super fast, friendly, welcoming, and attentive. What more could I ask for with delicious food! The shrimp ? dumplings are my favorite. I love the soup dumplings as well. The pork buns were fresh and tasty, and the shumai was on point.

The waiters were very nice. I sat aside and made a cup of tea while I waited for the takeout.
(It is recommended that the restaurant remove flies)

We had some dumplings, rice noodles, and a clay pot, and everything was cooked to perfection. The flavors were rich and delicious, making for a satisfying meal.
There was plenty of seating, and we had no trouble finding street parking, which made the experience even more convenient. My only suggestion would be to add some background music to liven up the energy in the restaurant. Overall, a good dining experience.

Ambiance: Ordered the shrimp/pork/beef rice roll (5*), meatloaf and fish clay pot (4*), chicken sticky rice (3.5*), siu mai (3*), and turnip cake (4*). The food won’t blow your mind and isn’t the highest quality, but it’s comforting and tastes home made. I think the rice rolls were superb, but the dim sum dishes are a 3*, 4* depending on your palette. There was one lady serving all tables, who was nice and sweet. The pricing is fair amongst the comps.Would come back again for comfort feeling.

I came to pick up my meal and asked to use the restroom, but I was not allowed! If you have to buy something, is your toilet encrusted with diamonds?

Disappointing. I ordered the chicken sticky rice, shrimp dumplings, and soup dumplings per the server’s recommendation. All were mediocre, lukewarm, and clearly reheated in the microwave rather than freshly steamed. The XLB skins were firm on top and broken on the bottom, so they had lost their soup. Service was quick and friendly. Prices were fair.
