I had the Dan Dan noodles to go with good prompt service. However although generous with the noodles the amount of sauce given was very stingy and I counted 4 bok choy leafs. For the price along with a tip I found it very disappointing as the sauce barely covered the noodles.

Unfortunately the vegetable dumplings were bland and damp and the dan dan noodles were ok but the tofu was cold inside.

This place might be getting too busy and lacking the ability to provide consistently good tasting food. But their service people are good. I hope they monitor their food output more closely.

The food is good.

However I wouldn’t recommend the place. The service is very slow and chaotic. You can read through other reviews which mention it.

There was just one person managing the front desk, cleaning the table and managing the orders. We waited 15 mins before our order was taken and had to wait another 45 mins before we got any of our food. There was a point where literally everyone sitting in the restaurant were waiting for their food. By the time we got all our food it was 1.5 hours.
The orders were also not handled in order, so even though we had ordered the same fried rice or broccolini as the other table that came later, they got it earlier, since they lost track of which orders came first.

They need to find ways to speed up the service, and fix the order system.

Food is pretty decent once you lowered your standard to the fact that sichuan esq food in SF is mostly meh (compared to NY anyway) but their service is slow. We ordered food for pickup one time and it took literally an hour to get it on Tuesday night when they weren’t nowhere near busy. shouldn’t be tough to get some premade dumplings right.

What happened to the creative menu items? We were here a couple weeks ago and were disappointed to find that it has become a very mediocre dumpling spot, especially for SF standards. The soup dumplings were especially disappointing, as they were small, definitely not hand made (extremely even shapes and the folds didn't even look like folds but like stamped ripples), and the thick wraps were torn in a couple of them. At least the fillings tasted fine. The grandma dumplings were better, but again, nothing special.

This place is really good! The Sichuan wonton in red oil is amazing and so are the sauteed green string beans!

The pea shoots with garlic were delicious. But the pork soup dumplings were lacking in texture, taste, and appearance: I guess they were machine made and frozen?

I ordered from their ghost kitchen on DoorDash called noodle therapy and got the chicken and veggie wonton soup. I didn’t see any veggies in my wontons so I’m hoping it’s not pork because I cannot eat pork. Secondly, I noticed after finishing I see green things with legs on them and they appear to be insects. I am truly disgusted because there was no description of any seasoning or such that would be in the soup. There were many of them in the soup and I would like to know what it is in my soup. I don’t suggest eating from there, and I would like this place to be inspected. Nothing can make me feel better after this traumatic experience nor who knows what health issues I may encounter.

Im a sucker for good dumplings and years of living in HK set the bar higher than what united dumplings served up. I only tried four of their dishes, the grandma pork dumplings, the Sichuan wonton, the sui mai and their har goa.
So the grandma pork by texture is not bad but served up with just a bit of soy sauce. This dumpling needs some good chilli oil and some chives or thin sliced green onion to bring out the flavor. I d ask for the chilly oil but even the chilly oil lacked flavor and spice.
The Sichuan wontons weren't bad but lacked the spice level. Sichuan is well known for spicy dishes ... What happened here?
The sui mai and har gao were insane by size but size doesn't make up for flavor. Good old saying, less is more.
The atmosphere of this place is cold and rather sterile, it could use either some colors or dim the lights a bit. Make it warm and inviting and enhance the flavors...
