About this business

Reservations are not accepted at this extremely popular place, and it is one reason you will see lines snaking around the block to get in here. The other reason is the food. Though some might decry the less than immaculate interior, there are plenty who proclaim House of Nanking as the best Chinese food in San Francisco, if not California.

very poor service and very rude!!!!!! they charge you rice for 2 scoops on a one bowl food was very greasy and they charge you 3 dollars for tea and put flower inside your tea😒😒😒😒😒 very expensive 

Business response:

Please accept my apologies if our service came across as rude, Bo. We're not your average restaurant, and we're more authentic than many are used to when it comes to our quick and to the point service. I certainly hope you'll allow us the opportunity to serve you a meal we know you'll love. Warm regards, Kathy, Manager

First the waiter man was one the worse most impatient service I've ever had. Restroom was horror (filthy and full of tubs, boxes and gobs of dirty cleaning supplies and chemicals) Food was average!!!!!!!!! Never again.... 

Business response:

Serving you in a timely manner is very important to us, Vero, and we want to ensure that you receive prompt service. Along with this, we absolutely want you to feel respected. It can sometimes not feel that way due to our servers working at a very fast pace, but I assure you that's never the intention. I hope you reconsider and give us another try in the future.

Food was delicious! Did not know what to order but was given suggestions and the food was awesome! From dumplings to sesame chicken you could taste this wasn't chain restaurant food! Go when first opens cause it fills up fast and with good reason! 

Business response:

We're so glad our staff was able to help you choose what to order, Janice, and it's even better to know that your meal didn't disappoint! We hope you'll join us for more dumplings and sesame chicken soon. -Kathy, Manager

The fried beef with bok choy was delicious, along with the fried rice, not too greasy, just perfect. 

Business response:

That's just what I hope to hear, Ariela! So glad you're a fan of what we do here from the fried beef with bok choy to the fried rice. We'd love to have you back again soon to try even more. -Kathy, Manager
