My friend Ray brought me here while I was in San Francisco. I am most blessed for it as it reminded me of a valuable life lesson...Never judge a book by its cover.
77 C & V looks like your usual hole in the wall, Financial District lunch place in S.F. They have food cooked in advance, cafeteria style, for those of y'all in a rush. Super fast service. And the Nicest lady behind the counter to take your order.
BUT, I had the BEST PHO here that I've ever had. You can tell that the food was made with love. You can taste it. I mean the broth wasn't just a combination of whatever that was left over, it was made with purpose, intent, and dedication. Added to the delicious broth was the perfectly cooked Banh Pho noodles and fresh ingredients. Anyone taking the time to read this has known the taste of food cooked with love. That's why you read the food reviews Because you want to experience that bliss again.
For those poor, cold and timid souls that have not tasted food prepared with love, just go to 77 Chinese & Vietnamese Cuisine on Battery St. In San Francisco.
My Only regret was that I did not have the room to order the Hong Kong style Pan Fried...
Read moreThis is a quick lunch spot. Don't expect gourmet Chinese food. Now, with that expectation, this place is a great lunch spot for $20. Their noodle soup is perfect on a rainy day and they generally have a seat if you want to eat here. BBQ pork is on the sweet side and is better to eat before getting soaked in the broth. Pretty Average broth. On the salty side. Wonton is thin skinned which is what I prefer. Noodles are not soggy and well cooked. Portion size is generous and will fill up an average hungry person. Service is quick and the host is friendly and efficient despite how busy this place is during lunch time. Foods are all freshly made and have plenty of variety that you have to wait and think about what to get. The location is also perfect since this is the closest noodle place from the sales force building. There's happy donut too but this place has more seating. Their salt and pepper you name it also looked good and fresh. Many people got fried chicken cutlets. Fyi, The price is different from what they say on the menu but still not bad. Ask for chili oil if you want since it's not...
Read moreI’ve been looking for a real good chinese restaurant in SF for a while know, guess i finally found it! Food at this place tastes super good(don’t know if its the MSG they add to their food,lol) for $11 you get two sides plus steam or fried rice(no charge extra) I asked just to be sure. The only complain i have is that they should have english speaking workers because the asian girl serving me didn’t have a clue what i was asking her, her boss had to come over to help out. Plenty of space to eat or you could take your food to go. Highly recommended this place if your in the financial district of SF, if your driving to this place you’ll have a hard time parking there’s mostly only yellow meters around this restaurant if i were you i would take public...
