Overpriced for dim sum I'm not sure if it's because our whole party was Caucasian but we got offered mostly fried dishes none of the traditional dim sum. While the food was all very tasty, the atmosphere was loud and we had a long wait. There's so many dim sum places in SF, it's too bad this one has the most word of mouth reputation.

Excellent Dim Sum Yank Sing is known to serve exceptional dim sum. It is however always crowded and a noisy environment. Although the food is very delicious the pricing of the food is a bit expensive.

Delicious but slow! The food was great, so I have no complaints there! My only complaint is that I felt the service to be a bit slower than what is normal for most restaurnts. Very clean though!

Best dim sum, big price. – San Francisco is known for its chinese cuisine, so I thought I'd try out the supposedly best dim sum in the city. I must admit, the dim sum at Yank Sing is impressive. I could tell all of the food was made in house (or at least made by someone who intended it for Yank Sing) and everything was cooked to perfection. No broken dumpling skins, no under seasoned/over seasoned foods. This is how all dim sum should strive to be done. But of course, greatness always has a price... and this place is pricey.... read more

Overrated dim sum – Yank Sing certainly does not deserve a high ranking for its dim sum. Growing up in Canton, I am a total dim sum snob and I went to Yank Sing out of its reputation. It was a total disappointment. It was very much Americanized (and maybe that is why many people think it is good). If you want more authentic dim sum, I would recommend the Canton Dim Sum Seafood Restaurant down on Hawthorne and Folsom, much more authentic and good dim sum. Yes, the serving staff in Yank Sing speaks English, if that is more imp... read more

Great food – This place has the best dim sum I have ever tasted. The have a very larrge selection. Went in between lunch and dinner hours and had no problem being seated. The servers were not very friendly but the food made up for it.

Still The Best – This place is an easy target because of it's reputation and it is pricey. However, if you are truly objective and judge the food on it's merits, this is the best dim sum in the city. Lobster dumplings, sea bass dumplings, pork shumai, green beans, Peking duck all excel. If you don't see what you like, just ask to special order and you will get your request promptly. The dessert tarts are a great way to end a meal here. The egg custard tarts and Chinese donuts are worth a visit all by themselves.

Vegan friendly dim sum! – Great food, and vegetarian/vegan friendly. The could try harder on the selection of dishes, but the extremely attentive waitstaff makes up for the lack of selection. The floor supervisor actually caught us about to eat something non-vegan and intervened! Great place and much better ambiance than you would expect.
