My wife and I discovered this restaurant on a recent visit to San Francisco. We stayed near the airport and went driving around looking for a place to eat dinner. We entered a huge romm filled with 400 diners, all Chinese. We were the only caucasians in the place, but they made us feel right at home. I ordered a... more

Exotic Cantonese really isn't my thing. But the spareribs (guailo selections) were definitely tasty. Not much on ambience, typical cheaply converted "used to be some other kind of restaurant in the 70s, and it still has that feel" kinda place. more

We just got back from being swindled! My parents, visiting from out of town, took us out to dinner and I only found out what happened after we got home. Our meal ended up being over $80 per person! I don’t mind paying that much if we were expecting to! When ordering, have the waiter explain very carefully what is... more
