Great and authentic Chinese restaurant. The food is delicious. We ordered several dishes including: Westlake Beef Soup, Sweet and Sour Pork, Spinach with Garlic Sauce, Salt and Pepper Squid, Dry Braised String Beans, Chicken with Black Mushroom and Tofu Clay Pot, White Rice, and another clay pot (but I forgot the name of it). All of it was really good. I would go back and order them again. The prices are really good and affordable. We had a large group, about 18 people, and we ordered double of everything. It came out to only $25 per person, and that's including a generous gratuity. I will definitely come back here.

If you're craving good ole' fashion Cantonese comfort food then this is the place to go !!! There are way too many things on the menu!!! AND, they all look delicious. You can't go wrong with whatever you choose.. The ladies that work here are attentive And very nice and polite The interior of the restaurant is quite spacious. Not the most contemporary place, but a place where you can totally be yourself, kick back, and enjoy some great chinese food .

Located on Geary Blvd near 4th Avenue in the Richmond District San Francisco. The owner is very nice. Unfortunately the wait staff could use some customer service training. What we ordered: 1.) Winter Melon Soup not bad could use a bit more seasoning. 2.) Ginger Chicken. The waitress messed this up by putting a Gravy over the chicken which is not what we wanted. Tasted ok chicken was right… 3.) Beef Chow Fun this was very good beef was tender. 4.) Fried pork spareribs this was not bad. 5.) Seafood Tofu Clay Pot again this was not prepared the way it was ordered. So did not great tasting. 6.) Pea spouts in ginger garlic. The taste was good but the sprouts were chewy.

I take my 76 year old mother and 51 years old mentally disabled sister here. They enjoy the claypot rice here very much. A true hidden gem. If you are Toishan and looking for a good place to get delicious food, look no further. We ordered spareribs clay pot rice chicken and Chinese sausage clay pot rice and they served complimentary lotus root and peanut soup. My mom taught me her Claypot etiquette: as soon as the pot arrives, mix the rice and remember to scoop and mix everything from the bottom of the pot including mixing the crunchy rice with rest and last, serve into a bowl
