Ben 💯 BenrubiFebruary 19, 2013“I would cheerfully shit like a mink tomorrow for the many splendored delights of #MissionChinese today." - Anthony Bourdain
Kate FurmanFebruary 16, 2015The food is so good but it burns so badly. Get the bread service for some heat relief.
@JaumePrimeroJuly 13, 2012Thrice cooked bacon and salt cod fried rice: a lethal combination worthy of a repeat visit!
Chicken wings, celery!, Mapo tofu, prime rib if you can get it!
I believe in karma. I believe the thrice-cooked bacon was created for me because of something nice I once did. It spoke to me.
Inna GJuly 15, 2018The wings are extremely spicy and over rated! The only thing good was the rice cake.
GianniMarch 23, 2013Plan on eating here once. Wait is long, food is intense and tons of crazy flavors. Worth the experience for a night. Maybe my palate sucks?
Ruben GuerreroAugust 24, 2013Very trendy right now, no reservations but really great (and very spicy) food! $$$- Andrew ContiJanuary 11, 2015The general tso's old fashioned is sweet, so smooth, and not at all spicy.
Alissa LudanskaaApril 29, 2016Very interesting contemporary Chinese interpretation of traditional meals
Sam RichardOctober 21, 2012Holy crap their thrice cooked bacon and sizzling cumin lamb are good! Must haves.
The Corcoran GroupJune 13, 2013Not your average Beef and Broccoli. Either wait-it-out or take-it-out, and don’t be misled by the run-down façade.
Eugene LeeMay 25, 2012I love salt but wow the pork jowl was intensely salty I had to send it back. I'll try this place again in 5 months
Todd FeilerJune 12, 2012The thrice cooked bacon is crazy amazing. Everything looked so good I wanted it all.
Grub Street's Cheap Eats says: "Sichuan pickled vegetables ($4), 'sizzling' cumin lamb breast ($15)."
Dorothy Jean ChangAugust 10, 2019Great for dinner but sadly lunch is v weak. Only includes a few things and not the ones we were hoping for.
Emily K.June 1, 2015That Taiwanese shaved ice dessert is NOTHING like Taiwanese shaved ice (and not in a good way).
Remington GuestMay 24, 2013Don't get the cold buckwheat noodles. Hot ones are awesome when available.
Roxanne TehranianAugust 8, 2013I thought the thrice cooked bacon was gross. BUT the pig tails were AMAZING the way they describe them about having to remove the meat from the spinal cord is disgusting but they are so so delicious
Nath MJune 17, 2013For the SF transplants that are homesick, a serving of Salt Cod Fried Rice will transport you straight to 18th and Mission.
Nana BoatengMarch 4, 2013Everyone orders the cod fried rice and the chong wings cause they're awesome!
Holy spicy food. Danny Bowien will blast your taste buds with explosive or numbing spices. Get the wings, cod fried rice, lamb, triple cooked bacon, and the uni or duck if you feel like dropping $$$
A A.May 3, 2018Their menu seems like combine Chinese and Japanese food. Too much spice for me. According to this, All menu same taste.
Alan TachikawaMay 3, 2018Despite all the positive comments here, I felt that they use too much artificial spice. That's not the same as "spicy" in a good sense. Avoid if you are looking for authentic chinese.
The spicy chicken wings are hella spicy. If you're with noobs skip 'em.
HelenAugust 6, 2013It was soo good when I went the first few times. The mapo tofu is still unbelievably good, but the scallop noodles were too salty to eat and clams were just alright.
Mark KizelshteynJuly 3, 2015Enjoyed dinner. But this place is miles away from the original spot. Where are the pig ears!?
P CMay 5, 2013Try alittle of everything but beware some things are mega spicy without a warning on menu.

"Cheapest and most fulfilling meal in all of New York! $2.50 for your choice of meat over rice and veggies. Think Yoshinoya but better. Hearty and delicious and excellent for you budget eaters!"

"Text the bar to order, colorful lighting, feels like the Havana scene in Guys and Dolls. Kitschy funky decor, warm, lively. The music is so good, and the leopard print pool table in the back is 👌👌"
