"Hong Kong Lounge II was forced to move from its Geary Boulevard digs due to a devastating fire in 2019, but now the restaurant is back, relocating to SoMa with its new name, HK Lounge Bistro. It’s a tiny sliver of a space, but the dim sum is still stellar and continues to lure in customers. Get your favorites, but also think about adding on items such as the salt and pepper soft shell crab or sauteed pea shoots with garlic. Lunch tends to be crowded, so try making a reservation via the website or arriving early to snag a table." - Paolo Bicchieri
