I found this place through Google Maps recommendations and I want to tell you that it was a unique experience since we arrived. It is the best Cantonese restaurant in Francisco. We arrived around 8 pm and we didn't have to wait. They took us to the underground part, which is an experience since it seems like you are entering another city. The service was excellent because the waiter was very patient since my English is not the best and he helped me choose the dishes. They welcomed us with tea, which they were very careful to serve. Afterwards, we ordered the duck, which was delicious, and the prawns with honey walnuts, which I also highly recommend because the combination of flavors is wonderful. The dessert was also delicious. Overall, I highly recommend the restaurant because you will eat very well and in a unique way.
Was in town for a weekend. The hotel manager highly recommended this spot. The service was really good. Everyone was very friendly. We didn't have a reservation,it was raining and the place was packed. Fortunately there was just two of us so we were sat at small table for two with no problem. Food was better than most of the Chinese food places we've been to in the last several years. The fried rice actually had flavor and was one of the best I've had in recent times. It was Golden Rice. The lemon chicken had good flavor but was overcooked and chewy. Our favorite was a house specialty called Three treasures with black bean sauce. It was chefs kiss,top tier! Would go back just for that and the rice.
Overall a good experience and vibe especially downstairs. The house special fried rice was absolutely fantastic. We also really liked the cumin lamb; the meat was very tender and soft. The dish could have been spicier, though. The two other veggie dishes we got were tasty and healthy, albeit slightly forgettable. Make sure to get chili and soy sauce, everything could have used more spice and a bit more salt.
The service was excellent. I went to R&G with a group of colleagues last week. The wait was a little long even though we had reservations. The manager comped our drinks for the long wait. The food was delicious! Definitely better than any of the Chinese food I can get at home. The only thing that was not as expected was the Peking duck. I’m used to the breast meat being deboned, but theirs wasn’t. Our entire group really enjoyed everything we ordered. We left really full!
