Went in with some family for a small lunch. Waited a while for out food, just for each dish to be brought out five minutes after each other. Waited another 10mins after we ate for our to-go food and pay for our meal.
We paid cash, and Susan took our change as “tip”. When we asked for our change back, she kept stating that it was tip and kept pointing to the receipt. We did order quite a bit of food and initially had tip calculated, but with the money she kept it would’ve been an extra $10. We did get our money back, the whole situation was ridiculous.

Neither good or bad, I would say it's a pretty average dim sum place nothing too crazy that blew my mind.
We went in at 11:30 and despite out group being one of the only ones there, it took a while for the things that we ordered to come out.
The soup dumplings were good but not sure I would come back.

Fish congee brought in cold, and fish didn’t taste fresh. After that meal my boyfriend got diarrhea for two days. I don’t recommend anyone comes to a food service place who doesn’t care about food quality or at least congee in cold that’s the worst if you know congee is supposed to be hot and fresh made!

Great food for great price. We had spare rib claypot rice, Beef rice noodle roll, and coconut chicken soup. After tip it was less than 50. Everything is tasty, fresh, and has original flavor of its ingredients with minimum condiments needed. This kind of classical style authentic Cantonese restaurants are less and less nowadays, especially for us who live in South Bay. Owner is sweet and friendly. Food came out fast and in a reasonable speed (clay pot rice takes 20mins because it is made to order). Definitely recommend everyone to check out. Will come back for sure.

Best place in SF for clay pot rice, you can add any toppings you like, but we love the chicken, mushrooms, and spare rib. Their rice flour is milled in-house, making for the freshest, silkiest rice rolls (shrimp and Chinese donut). Be sure to order those too!

My husband and I just moved to this neighborhood and have been wanting to try this place. So happy we came here, it’s a solid spot for some tasty comfort food. We got the spare rib and the chicken mushroom clay pot rice. Both clay pot dishes were really tasty and the rice came out nice and crispy with a good sauce to pair with it. The lady who seated us was very friendly and attentive. We’ll definitely be back and will try more things on the menu!

The meatloaf, spareribs and salted fish clay pot is really tasty, just wish the pot is a little bigger, so tasty.
They have a weekday deal from 11am- 8pm on chicken or meatloaf clay pot rice for $11.99 a savings of $4.

Everything was great. I'm no expert, but their sticky rice seems to be very different from average, and much better.
Super friendly service. The food is great. The stir-fried beef rice noodle (gong chow au hor) is excellent. The noodles tasted very fresh and tender. The lady that served us told us the rice noodles and steamed rice rolls (chiang fun) are house made in the kitchen. The clay pot rice are very good too. Though be patient and prepare to wait because it is made to order. I forgot the leftovers when we left. The super friendly lady that served us chased us down a block away. Really going above and beyond. Thank you!

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.
