50 Best Chinese Restaurants near Sausalito

“If you're in and around Sausalito and want some pretty good Chinese (not the absolute best but good enough), then check this place out. Does get busy at times, but nice for lunch. Food portions are decent, and the staff is super friendly!“

“I like coming here for a quick lunch. It’s affordable price for Chinese food around Marin County. Generally, the food portion is not consistent here. Someday I will be lucky to get big portion, while most of the time the portions are generally very small.
The foods mostly hot & fresh at this location. It would be nice if the customer services here are more nicer.“

“Shrimp noodle roll - excellent
Glutinous rice & chicken dumpling - excellent
Crispy shrimp & meat tofu skin roll - good, would have been excellent if it's a tad saltier
Siumai - good but not outstanding
House special pan fried noodle - good with premium proteins
Dry-fried string bean - ok, a bit overcooked
Coffee-glazed baby back pork ribs - not good, the sauce was ok but the ribs had very little meat and not crispy enough on the outside. Koi Palace makes a much better version.

The prices were on the expensive side for dim sum. Service was excellent. Waiting to get into the (only) restroom required lots of shuffling to make ways for staff going in/out of the kitchen and cashier's stand.“

“Always great dim sum and dumplings.“

“Lovely Peking Duck experience, highly recommend. Visited with a group of 6 to celebrate a birthday and it was a great choice. Each dish was well presented, rich in flavours and felt very fresh. I was pleasantly surprised about their XLB too!“

“The people were friendly, service was lovely, and the Sicilian orange chicken with small bowl of jasmine rice was delicious 😋🤤.....we shall return, thank you friends 😁
God bless 🙏

“Checked out Dumpling Zone and really liked it. Their choice of dumplings was a lot to choose from and they came out hot, flavorful, and definitely hit the spot.

The place feels simple and laid-back, and the staff kept things moving quickly. Solid little spot for a casual meal“

“This place is by mill valley in, it is really authentic Chiense food ! (I’m Chiense and I know this is a very authentic north Chiense food). Very clean and fast services. Order from Kiosk make it easy. In the few days we here we had mapo toufu, Mongolian beef, eggplant and toufu, fry noodles, and the sweet sour soup is amazing!!! We pretty much here everyday other than July 4 it closed for American 250. Very friendly services. I highly recommend mapo toufu so yummy! Price fair all dishes under 20$. Will visit again! I also got Their source. Check out the cute Google review. I heard one the owners is Chiense 🤩“

“San Tung is definitely worth the visit! Their famous chicken wings absolutely lived up to the hype—crispy on the outside, juicy on the inside, and coated with a perfectly balanced sweet and garlicky sauce. Every bite was delicious! The portions were generous, and the prices were very reasonable for the quality and quantity of food. The restaurant was busy, but the service was efficient, and the food came out fresh. If you’re in San Francisco, this place is a must-try. We’ll definitely be back!“

“There’s so many authentic Chinese places in San Francisco, but it’s hard to find the American-style Chinese food I grew up with in suburban Georgia. I finally found it here, this place really hits home for me. The general tso’s chicken is delicious, and so is the hot and sour soup. They have a great value lunch special, it’s $15 for the whole combo including rice, soup, and egg roll.

If you’ve been looking for good American style Chinese food in San Francisco, this is the best I have found yet. I will definitely be coming back!“

“Very yummy experience - would recommend the beef noodle soup, onion and egg pancake, and cucumber salad. Noodle portions are huge and food comes out quickly. We went on a Saturday at noon and were seated immediately, ladies serving us were very sweet. Note that it’s cash only. Highly recommend, we will be back!“

“Superb! The cooking show is very nice!“

“Really good 小笼包. Chinese owned, operated and staffed. You’re getting the real deal here. Beef noodles were pretty decent too. One thing I like is that unlike most Chinese eateries - the MSG here isn’t too strong. Pig ear salad were alright, could do with a bit more kick in flavour. Overall - a great meal and I’d recommend it to anyone looking for good Chinese food.“

“California-style Cantonese cuisine! I really like the decoration style here, which always makes me feel better when dining here. The golden lotus chandelier and the gold and silver wire lamp are definitely the best decoration! 👍The pastries here are also worth mentioning! Pineapple buns, wife cakes, black sesame banana cakes with miso sugar!“

“Great dim sum. Friendly service. Great location in the fisherman’s wharf area where locals and tourists can enjoy the food and the scenary“

“The food is really good, when we got there we didn’t need to wait at all and I never liked Asian food but I gave that place a chance and I really loved it and I ate a lot of things and the waitress ate really nice and the food doesn’t take long to get served!!This is the best Asian spot in California!“

“This place absolutely rules, everything I’ve ever had here has been great. I’d highly recommend the grilled meats, especially the pork - it had a wonderful charred flavor and crispy edges without being at all dried out. Will be coming back again and again.“

“Lovely place to celebrate the Chinese New Year!“

“forgot to take pic of dumplings but got the Napa cabbage and pork dumpling ($12.99 for 14 dumplings) which is such a killer price! Love how you can tell the dumplings are house made (the dumpling dough is chewy and comes out steaming) and goes so well with soy sauce and chili oil.“

“Great food, service, and location. Clean, bright, with large glass windows looking out on Columbus and Broadway. Exceptionally clean bathrooms, which is uncommon in this business, and so definitely got our appreciation! We made reservations, so there was no wait.“

“Loved this place! Great food and great service! We ordered the mapo tofu, mushu vegetables, and chicken with string beans. Everything tasted great and came out quickly. I highly recommend coming here. There are lots of vegetarian options too.“

“TLDR: decent selection and good quality ingredients but soup wasn’t very rich in flavor

I had the pork bone soup and it tastes salty but didn’t have much pork bone flavor. The quality of the ingredients were decent including the Wagyu beef which came out cooked nicely. 2 of us got to around $40 after tax and tip which isn’t really that expensive at all“

“The best hot pot ever this is my second time with my family and we love it. The only problem is the parking it take us 30 minutes looking for parking.“

“The taste is very good, I will go there again next time.“

“食物美味，环境优美，服务很棒，下次再来“

“I think this is the best hot pot restaurant I've been to in California. Very clean and spacious with an attentive, thoughtful and kind owner/server. There are lots of options for the hotpot, all are available, and none are overpriced. One important detail for me and other people with allergies is that it's peanut-free, so I can even enjoy suspiciously peanutty things like sesame paste without worrying. I would definitely come back and take friends.“

“Benson and his wife are amazing and I'm happy to say that me and my family are regulars with them. We don't go there as often, but when we do, we always order from them. From time to time me and my father would have lunch there and chat with Benson and his wife. They're great folks and hard working. The restaurant is great, food is great, and the neighborhood that they're located in is great. Cozy and quiet, not too crazy, bustling but just enough to know that you can enjoy your food without rushing out the door.

Benson, or his wife, if you're reading this, you guys are great.“

“My favorite hole in the wall Chinese food I crave for when it comes to dumplings. They do fried or boiled.

It’s about the wrapper… fresh made and ingredients inside that counts.

They do good Americanized Chinese food too… best tender kung pao chicken and Mongolian beef.“

“This place was great! Our table shared the pork xiao long bao, crispy dumplings, Dan Dan noodles, and cucumber salad. Everything tasted delicious. We had a bit of a wait outside the restaurant along with other groups and the restaurant was pretty much full, so I suspect it’s usually busy!“

“Bring cash! Self-seating, so bring someone to save your spot or grab the bar seating against the wall. Order at the counter, your number gets called. Condiments are up front except Sriracha which is at every table.

Came on a Tuesday for a late lunch and it was still packed — clearly social media is driving a lot of tourists here for the rice rolls. Got the Rice Roll Express Roll out of curiosity but wished I'd gone with the Shrimp Feast instead. Not bad, just not my favorite. Also wasn't asked about my optional topping and ended up with cabbage by default, so speak up when ordering.

Would come back to try the Shrimp Feast.“

“The food was a great mix of Latin and Cantonese flavors. It brought back many childhood memories of Chinese food in Northern Mexico while growing up. The owner was extremely warm and welcoming in sharing her cuisine that is from her home and heart.“

“We stumbled upon this place while exploring Chinatown as tourists, hoping to try some authentic Chinese food. The restaurant was packed, which gave us a good feeling, and it definitely did not disappoint. Everything we ordered was fresh, flavorful, and cooked perfectly. The beef with broccoli was tender, the noodles were delicious, and every bite felt homemade. Great portions, friendly service, and an authentic atmosphere. One of our favorite meals in San Francisco. Highly recommend if you’re looking for real, delicious Chinese food!“

“LetsSweet Kitchen is a Hong Kong chaan Teng restaurant in San Francisco South the market neighborhood, across the street from the Porsche dealer. We were in the area and decided to give them a try. Highly rated at 4.9 on Google, 4.7 on Yelp.

The place is clean, Service, friendly and food solid. Prices are higher than Chinatown, of course. Parking is a lot easier here. If you're in the neighborhood and want some Hong Kong style Chinese food, this is a good bet. If you're intimidated by Chinatown, this is a great place to go.

Food Picks:
Brad beef brisket rice with four piece wonton ($22.99) is a special during lunch and includes a drink. Ample quantity and good wontons and sold braised brisket flavor. The Hong Kong milk tea was strong and not too sweet. 8.5/10

Black pepper pork chop and onion over rice ($16.85) had reasonable quantity and was cooked just fine. The sauce was on the peppery side. 8.5/10.

Overall - Very Good
Food - Good
Decor - Very Good
Service - Very Good
Value - Good

Would we come back - Maybe“

“Great place for home style Cantonese comfort food. Good quality and value. Portion sizes are generous. Service is quick and efficient. Sunday evenings are packed for family dinners. Mid week it was relaxed as locals came and went to grab their takeout or grab a quick dinner. Every dish was spot on. Check out the Crispy Skin Chicken or Curry Beef Stew.“

“An egg noodle shop on Ellis Street in Little Saigon. The braised duck leg noodle soup is the bowl to order, the wontons deserve their following, and the homemade soybean drink is the right thing on the side. Ten to twenty dollars a head, and the taste does not drift between visits, which regulars notice. Thank you for the steady bowls. Five stars.“

“Delicious Yunnan-style rice noodles paired with genuinely friendly service! The popcorn chicken is a highlight - lightly battered, juicy, and packed with flavor (and the portion size is generous for the price). The milk tea is excellent too - you can really taste the tea flavor.“

“Came here twice for lunch, and the food has been uniformly delicious. The service is friendly. At lunch time several tables were occupied by single dinners talking (loudly) on their phones for most of the meal which is why I bumped down one star for atmosphere.“

“I personally think this is the best Human restaurant in Bay Area. My husband being a Hunan native said this is the real authentic Hunan flavor. The portion is also pretty big for the price. We tried so many different dishes and every single one is top-notch flavor and good ingredients. Highly recommend!“

“Really enjoyed the Mala spicy fish fillet mixian! The broth was the highlight deep, flavorful, and super comforting. The fish tasted fresh and tender, and the noodles soaked up the flavor really well. The restaurant felt clean and cozy, and the service was friendly. There was no long wait when we went. The prices are reasonable too. Definitely will come back!“

“Our daughter is obsessed with soup dumplings which we found at Fusion Dumpling. The traditional pork were great, but try the black truffle and wagyu soup dumplings. You won't be disappointed!“

“The food is tasty and delicious the inside needs a update the service is good it’s not too noisy“

“Everything is just great!!! From your time waiting till you’re served, is wonderful.“

“Came here after a nice stroll in Golden Gate Park, and it was probably the best decision we made. We ordered the dry chicken, crispy Hong Kong–style noodles, and eggplant stir-fry. The portions were generous, and all the dishes were excellent.“

“The most authentic Hunan cuisine I've ever eaten!“

“The food was excellent. Promot service too. Scallion (onion) pancakes are on point! Dumplings are steaming hot off the stove.“

“Delicious and served with a smile. Great food“

“Yummy coconut custard bun! Can’t wait to go back and try more of the beautiful treats“

“It’s been a while since my family and I came here for lunch. The food is still very delicious and was craving these yummy dishes. The Shanghai noodles and the xiao long bao are a top favorite! The spicy wontons with chili oil were pretty good. It’s not that spicy at all. So if your spicy tolerance isn’t too high, it’s a good choice. The staff were very friendly and the food came pretty fast.“

“I worked here before and when it first opened!!! Such happy memories and so happy to see it’s still thriving!“

“Great option for interesting vegan Chinese food in the Mission, they have menu items that are different then the typical Chinese fare. Appreciate that items are clearly labelled if they are vegan or can by made vegan. There are a good variety of options for vegan apps and mains.
Got the vinegar peanuts which were really delicious, difficult to stop eating them, very addicting with the vinegar flavor.
The mapo tofu with mushroom was good, not as spicy as expected. The star of our meal was the cabbage with pistachio milk. It's more of a pistachio cream type sauce on top, and the sauce becomes milky as it mixes with the juice that comes out of the cabbage. The cabbage was amazing, very flavorful and delicious with the pistachio sauce, would definitely get this again next time.
Service was quick and there was no wait at ~8:30pm on a Thursday night.“
