Flavors were there but the cumin lamb was ALLLLL FAT! Like literally all fat. So dissapointing. I will come back but will most likely get something that im sure will contain mostly MEAT! Staff was pleasant all considered

The duck and the mongolian beef were delicious. The attention from the waitresses was excellent too. I would come back again.

Our wanderings led us into the vibrant labyrinth of San Francisco’s Chinatown, where lanterns sway like drunken philosophers and every alley hums with the promise of either enlightenment or indigestion. There, tucked between apothecaries and shops selling mysterious trinkets that defy both science and warranty, we were seeking Z & Y Restaurant.
The place possesses all the charm of a tax office, no pretense of grandeur, no flattering lights, no velvet draped corners for the idle rich to whisper inanities. The proprietors perhaps appear blissfully unaware that aesthetics might play any role in the dining arts. And yet, what they lack in polish, they more than redeem in palate.
We ordered a modest few dishes, by which I mean the table soon resembled a battlefield of abundance. At first sight, I felt the sort of despair a man feels upon seeing his week’s correspondence pile up on Monday morn. “This,” I whispered gravely, “will not end well.” But lo! The tragedy never came. Against all reason and integrity, we made it to finish line.
And then, ah, cruel twist of fate, a dessert appeared. Sweet, subtle, and unexpectedly divine. One might call it the sally after the storm, a confection so delightful it could almost make one forgive the chairs, which appear to have been designed by an enemy of comfort.
This place may never seduce you with chandeliers or fine linen, but it woos the stomach as a poet woos a muse: with sincerity, passion, and a touch of beautiful chaos. It is not fine dining but it is honest dining, and that, is far rarer.

Pretty good food, but when we went to check out, junk fees of an astounding 10% were added to our check. Note: this wasn't a service charge for a large group, just extra fees they added atop the listed menu prices.

We came for lunch and only had to wait 5-10 minutes. The food came fast, hot and fresh. It was tasty but not exceptional and the eggplant was a little oily. The creamy shrimp was our favourite and we also ordered the kung pao prawns. The menu is big so it’s worth trying but I personally wouldn’t line up for more than 20 minutes.

such good food, definitely recommend the cumin beef
Great atmosphere and very clean Nice food but we found it a bit pricy. They also charge the 10% surcharge (apart from the tax and the tip) which i found too much.
