Food was excellent, we loved pretty much everything we tried. The portions are great for sharing but a little too much food for one person, so be sure to come with a group, preferably with similar taste preferences. It was difficult for me to order since I have different preferences/needs than the rest of the group. Our server was also a little all over the place, and it took quite a while of waving to flag someone down, he was unfamiliar with our table and instead of sending our server over he took our orders instead. He was not really able to understand my questions about the menu so I passed on round 2. Luckily everything everyone else got came out correctly, but it would've been nice to...
The food at this restaurant is absolutely delicious! I highly recommend arriving early as it fills up quickly (we arrived at 11am when they open on a Wednesday) but don't worry, the wait time for your food is short! The service is quick and efficient, and the food is excellent. Our favorite was the BBQ pork bun, which was savory on the inside and slightly sweet and doughy on the outside. We also recommend trying the Taro Puff. Be careful not to order too much food, as the portions are surprisingly filling! The interior seating is beautiful and upscale. Overall, I give this place a 10/10 - definitely eat here!
TLDR: Fantastic taste, certain dishes are extraordinary but size of items makes the value not the greatest. City view is a great option for dim sum in the city. I'm giving it a 4 stars because in terms of value, it's not the best. Granted it's SF prices, the cost per size ratio isn't as worth it. However, the taste is very good, especially their Peking Duck Bao, pork siu mai, wok dishes like the eggplant tofu. Also, their custard salted egg yolk bun is one of the best I've had in the city, if not the best. Would definitely come back for specific dishes, but would go elsewhere for others.
This Dim Sum restaurant in San Francisco's Chinatown is one of the most well-known. The food receives a rating of 4.5 out of 5 for its classic dim sum dishes in terms of taste and presentation. However, the prices are higher compared to other similar restaurants, likely due to its location. The ambiance has changed significantly from its previous location, now featuring a modern, dimly lit, contemporary twist on traditional dim sum halls. The service is efficient but lacks personal touch.

Beautiful restaurant in the center of Chinatown. Perfect for dim sum and brunch. We parked on the street and arrived when they first open on Sat. No line and we were seated right away. Food came out fast and tasty, however the menu is a little less items than other SF dim sum places. The dim sum portion are small and the prices are a little on the high side. The best items were green onion pancakes, very simple and yet so delicious. We reordered 3 times. Service was great.
I think most of the opinions have already said it all so I'll be brief. Friendly and patient staff, fast service, good food (taste, consistency, texture, temperature, portions), clean place (outside and inside) with good lighting, and extensive menu. I had: Steamed B.b.q pork bun Pan fried chicken bun Peking duck with lotus bun Vegetable egg roll Green onion pancake Spinach Dumpling Just go there and enjoy a good meal.
Feast for the Beasts! Came here for our Uncles Birthday and was stuffed like pigs One of the biggest Shrimp Claws I’ve had. You know I drowned them in that honey lemon mayonnaise sauce. Shrimp churngs my favorite of all the churng fun. The other two was Cha Siew and beef. The DIY Peking Duck (Bien Pei Ngap) is always Bussin. Don’t forget to FaceTime/Ring/Text your loved ones. Mindful Mondays Y’all.
Delicious dim sum restaurant located in San Francisco's Chinatown. While slightly more expensive than other dim sum spots, it is a fantastic option for a sit-down dim sum experience.
