A must-see restaurant, easy to spot in the long line outside the front door. It owes its popularity to its truly exquisite cuisine, and to its low prices. Contrary to what its name suggests, its cuisine is rather typical of Shanghai, but revisited. Nice canteen atmosphere, although a bit noisy. The kitchen is open to the restaurant. This is one of the favorite restaurants of San Franciscans and, after thirty years of existence, the couple of owners Peter and Lily opened a second restaurant which is managed by their daughter Kathy.

Super essen! Aber am Abend muss man etwas Zeit mitbringen.

Decided to try based on food network and hotel recommendations. Chair literally had duct tape holding back together. The wonton soup was served hot and was the highlight of the meal. The egg fried rice was more show than flavor, egg is not enough protein to flavor a dish. Beef was neither crispy of soft. Sort of in between and lacking the either spice or savory. Too many other options without the wait

Delicious dinner with friends at House of Nanking. Don’t expect anything fancy or a comfortable hang out type place, here you get an eat and get out kinda place cause there is always a line of people waiting. Food was delicious including sesame chicken and tofu in black bean sauce. The fried rice was finished table side with more than enough egg to make an omelette. Wasn’t a huge fan of the fried rice flavor but loved everything else.
