“This place offers a wide variety of dumplings, including rarer finds like fantuan, and other hot dishes at affordable prices in a conveniently located area of Sunset. The interior is small with only a few tables, but it's a cozy spot to enjoy a meal or pop in for takeout. They accept credit card but charge a 4% fee for dine-in, which is understandable. I'm really happy I found this spot and will probably return often.“

“Bund is, hands down, my favorite restaurant in SF. The food is fantastic, and the women working there are lovely--friendly, funny, and accommodating. I've always found the food here to be super flavorful, balanced, fresh, and not greasy. Whoever is at the wok in the back gets all my respect. I ended up coming here out of sheer luck. Another bustling, well-known restaurant establishment across the street was my original destination. When I saw how long the line was, I decided to leave. Trying to figure out where to go next, a man passes by me. He turned to me and said, "You gotta go here. It's SOOO good." The rest is history. My only regret is not discovering this culinary treasure sooner, lol. Now, I'm spreading the word about Bund, the great restaurant.“

“Food was impeccable, the only thing that wasn't excitingly flavorful was the tea which was to be expected. The staff did a tremendous job of serving us amazing food. The actual service was a tad bit slow, however if you don't worry about that then I highly recommend this place. If I was in the area, I would immediately return. Whether you have kids or not, for AMAZING Chinese food this is the place to be.Dietary restrictions: Whatever your need, I'm sure they would be flexible per your request. If unsure, call before hand.Parking: It's downtown so I would park at the closest parking garage then mosey on over.Kid-friendliness: They did an excellent job of serving our children and we had a lot of them.Wheelchair accessibility: Easy access for entry and exit of restaurant.“

“The food was so fresh, well cooked & deliciously flavored. I grew up here and have tried many Chinese & dim sum restaurants, but this one truly impressed me. The restaurant is tucked away and easy to miss, but you don’t want to. It’s excellent.What we ordered:—Stir fried green beans—Shrimp pork and chives potstickers—Vegetable chow mein—Har gow (shrimp dumplings)My 5 year old loved the shrimp dumplings so much she made us order a second serving and said, “these are the BEST I’ve ever had!”“

I would recommend all of them. Service is fast and food is good. They even had nice pudding desserts. Inside is nice and they are very busy so we tried to come here early to avoid wait.

“First time trying this spot. I came at 4pm and most dim sum goodies were gone. What I did try were really good though! I tried 2 versions of har gow (chive & shrimp dumpling and cilantro & shrimp dumping). Both were very good and exceeded my expectations! The filling is stuffed, very flavorful, and good skin. I grabbed the last sesame ball and it was delicious!! It was warm and nicely filled with red bean. Would definitely get again. I had the lotus sticky rice, which was good but it was mostly rice. I wish there was more filling in it. I'd skip this next time. Service was very friendly. Speaks both English and mandarin. Will give chili oil (pretty spicy!) if you ask. I'm definitely coming back! *cash only. Go down the street and there's an ATM machine inside a Cafe. Remember to tip to support small businesses. :)“

“Happy Bakery has many friendly people working there, and the dim sum and Chinese fast food are pretty good.The store has two sections. The section on the left is my favorite dim sum section. They have many different dim sum for the reasonable prices. The Chinese fast food section is more like Panda Express. You can see what you want, and they scoop it into the box. Both sides are quick and yummy!Parking: Metered street parking onlyWheelchair accessibility: The store is wheelchair friendly“

And, the taste is similar to what I had in Hong Kong. The taste is close to the original and does not taste like American Chinese food! Highly recommended for those who can't adjust to jet lag!“

“Best SHENJIAN Bao in SF! Any dish that is traditionally Shanghai is the same as what I got in Shanghai. Yes the Xiaolong Bao is not that beautiful, but the ones I eat day-to-day in Shanghai were just like that! Yes SHENJIAN Bao should have thick skin. The melon clay pot and rice cake brings back memory instantly! I'd say reduce your expectations on service, as it's just a mom and pop shop. It is authentic food. A gem in SF when most Chinese restaurants are Cantonese.“
