The beef noodle soup is the best. Don't forget pork dumplings and soup dumplings. Here's a pro tip: get the beef pancake too. They also sell dumplings frozen which are the best in the city.

My new favorite place in the sunset! Authentic Chinese food, delicious dumplings and noodles--I'm partial to the beef tendon and spicy beef (one of the specials on the wall, not on the menu).

What to get?! So many options! The spicy beef noodles are delicious but SPICY and can be shared with more than 2 people. The soup dumplings are a must have.

Cheap food. Get Hand pulled noodles of some kind and some of the best onion pancake you can find in the city.

The hand-pulled noodle soup and wontons were truly outstanding, but I'd pass on the soup dumplings in favor of the steamed dumplings next time. Read all about my visit on WinstonWanders below!! Read more

Wonton noodles. Broth and handmade noodles were excellent. Wonton were not real wontons. Closer to normal dumplings.

The most legit Chinese food I've had in SF and East Bay. Must try! Xiao long bao is very legit. Their soup noodle was also very legit. Salted pepper tofu was great too!

Hand-pulled lamb noodle soup!!! Great flavor! Also, beef pancake is on point- perfectly crispy 👌🏼
Erik CintronApril 26, 2017
Missable local spot. With some amazing prices and food. We order almost three menu. It was so good. Everything cook to order. Authentic Asian food.

Delicious, affordable, big portions, this place was recommended by A. Bourdain and it's really great!

I love the soup dumplings here, they're smaller to fit in the soup spoons without risking spills. The hand-pulled noodles are scrumptious, but aren't in every noodle dish, so check before ordering!

A lamb soup with hand-pulled noodles and a few orders of soup dumplings are strictly required orders, but everything else is good too.
Tobias SchmidtFebruary 12, 2018
Great wonton noodle soup (make sure you get it with the hand-pulled noodles) and equally good dumplings
Jennifer Slavens HamlinJanuary 13, 2014
This restaurant is amazing and delicious. We will definitely be coming here again. Those noodles were the best I've ever tasted!!!! The wait in line us worth it!

Potstickers were very juicy but needed the in house chili sauce for extra flavor punch.

I've only eaten here twice but both times I've wished I had a sharp knife or culinary scissors when serving the noodles. They tangle up easily. And DO get the handmade noodles.

Spicy tendon was excellent. Thinly sliced flavorful and good amount of heat.
Lucy WebbOctober 9, 2015
I recommend getting the lamb noodle soup, they hand pull the fresh noodles. The green beans are amazing too
J JohnMarch 6, 2018
Soup dumplings are a must try. Beef stew is good, spicy beef noodle soup is excellent. Good service.

The dumplings are pretty awesome. Spicy tendon is not super spicy but tasty if you're into that!
Brian LongtinOctober 14, 2019
Top 5 soup dumplings in the city, and we also loved the Spicy Beef noodle soup!

If you're vegetarian and think that tofu and green soup is safe, think twice - it's on strong chicken broth. Food poisoning for a day!

Dobiš juho, pa je noter en nudl. 10 meterski. Pa veš un filing, ko te en gleda pa kima, pa veš, da po Prekmursko ne guća.

delicious dumplings, fantastic noodles!
Jocelyn KinseyNovember 3, 2014
Portions were big. Dumplings were really good. Clean and not oily like lots of Chinese food.
Linda YangJanuary 27, 2019
Dumplings 🥟 and noodles 🍜 are authentic. I like the cold apps
Lily PanMarch 20, 2013
Tons of veggie options, great hand pulled noodles, fast wait, and same owners as kingdom of dumplings!!

lamb soup with handpulled noodles is immense, delicious and satisfying. Good for at least two meals.
Jenn KeatingFebruary 3, 2014
Incredible dumplings!! Try them all! I really like the Shanghai dumplings (soup dumplings)!!
Shannon ClarkApril 22, 2011
Handpulled noodles hard to eat but so worth it. Veggie options exist but be sure to ask. Everything made to order slow but worth it

Get something with the incredible hand-pulled noodles and at least one order of the soup dumplings.

Their wontons and noodles are made fresh, in-house. As recommended by Travel Channel host, Anthony Bourdain.

The mayor highly recommends the pork with corn dumplings and the farmer's cucumbers.
Brad GrahamMay 10, 2014
The thing to eat are the wontons and noodles made fresh in-house.

try at least one of the dishes with hand-pulled noodles. They don't have a lot of vegetarian options but what they have are quite tasty.
