If you're curious about a gourmet Chinese restaurant, try Michelin-starred chef Ho Chee Boon's table in Chinatown.

If you're interested in discovering a gourmet Chinese restaurant, head for Empress by Boon, starred chef Ho Chee Boon's table of revisited Cantonese specialties. After passing through a large, richly carved doorway, the 6th floor features a series of alcoves separated by chiselled black wood panels. The view over San Francisco is extraordinary, and the 7-course tasting menu is to die for. We particularly loved the shimeji mushroom dumpling with Burgundy truffle and the ultra-melting grilled Alaskan cod.

Took my girlfriend here for her 25th birthday and she love everything about it. From the view of the sun set, to the amazing food. Everything was great. They had very good substitutions for my dietary restrictions as well! Will definitely recommend to friends!

crazy good courses dinner with a view of Coit Tower.

Great atmosphere and beautiful design, but not much value for the price; the course meal was good only because we added the Pekin duck at an extra charge. The short rib was exquisite; the noodles lacked flavor, and the eggplant was just ok. Excellent presentation; we each had a glass of wine and two desserts after the course meal; with the tip, it came to about $460, which is significantly overvalued. The restaurant enjoys a Michelin star rating and a very striking environment, but for the price, the value is not there. It seems like you're paying for a beautiful setting, stunning views of the city and incredible cocktails but nothing that warrants the exorbitant price points.

We used to dine in with the previous owner. The restaurant is nicely updated. Quick service, very tasty dishes and yummy/pretty desert. Nice atmosphere with view on Coit tower surroundings of San Francisco.

This place was absolutely outstanding in almost every way possible! I’ve dined at all ranks of Michelin star restaurants across the country, and this place could be deserving in coming years. It also won’t break the bank as it’s only just over $100 per person for a hefty 5 course meal. Cocktails are fantastic and the wine list is curated expertly.

The only things that need to improve -

This is a Chinese / Cantonese restaurant but only has one Chinese wine….and it’s $700 ????????

I agree with others that having to add on dessert doesn’t make sense. I’d rather pay more per person and have dessert included.

Everything else was perfect and can’t wait to go back!
