Quality/Quantity -
Overall the food was 5 stars.
Xiao Long Bao, soup dumplings - This was good, piping hot. Retained its juices in the bao. I also noticed every table ordered this, it must be a signature dish here.
Singapore Style Noodles - Fresh and good flavors, generous portions. I should have added protein.
Mushroom Mapo Tofu - This was the hit. Very good flavors. Again, generous portions. Other ingredients that are not normally in a Mapo, in a good way. Also good and interesting, how do you cook the black beans? We would come back just for this, but again maybe add a protein?
Today we had a very healthy dinner, LOL.
Significant to-go orders while we were dining in.
More of a to-go place then a sit down.
They partner with UberEats, Doordash, Grubhub, and Postmates.
Atmosphere - Small local restaurant with 6 tables. One table outside, but this is SF winter so no one is crazy to sit outside in 40 degree weather.
So small that you can hear everyone's conversations.
The place looked like the owners built it themselves, you got to love DIY!
Street parking, good luck.
Open 6 days a week from 11:30 am to 9pm, closed Mondays; I suggest adding this to your website.
Service - This is where they lacked. Just one person, I believe the owner, was working the 6 tables and all the deliveries. Her daughter was riding on her scooter, then watching videos and games on her phone, etc.
Price - $42 + tip; all 3 menus had different prices. The menu posted on the window, the one she gave us when seated, and the QR code menu... I really suggest getting that corrected as NO one likes surprises! When I brought it to her attention, she said the QR code with the highest prices are the correct prices...
Owner Comment - Congrats on your success since 1998 and this location since last year. Please update all your menus!
