CHINA NORTH DUMPLING INC — Restaurant in San Francisco

I have been here since it first opened it’s doors, I usually make a visit when I am craving for a different style of Chinese food or when I am in the area. The restaurant is pretty compact where lines can build up. It is a two sided interior, where you can walk through the middle of the restaurant to either side of the dining area. Their menu consists of appetizers, dumplings, entrees, noodles, noodle soups, fried rice and much more. Everything is authentic, worth trying and made to order which is always a plus for me and I do not mind the wait since I am a very patient person. Their portion size is what I call more than enough, because most of the times I have food to take home. The service here is great thanks to their very welcoming, well trained and understanding staffs where I had never encountered an issue during any of my visits. You can either dine in, order for take out, phone in an order or order through a delivery app to have it delivered to you. I highly recommend this place to all Chinese food lovers, to anyone looking to try something new or if you just so happen to be in the area. I definitely will be back to tryout the other delicious options they...

My favourite dish is the Spicy Fish. Its pan fried with chilies - soooo yummy & melts in your mouth. The flavour is awesome. It's not on the regular menu, you have to special order it. They make great Dumplings here of course. The Shanghai Noodles are great & so filling. They serve everything with pickled cabbage. Stick with what they are known for - their staples - such as the dumplings. The pots of soup and noodle dishes also are quite good. I tried their food for a take-away and ordered some basic Chinese staples the first time round, cos I was craving Chinese food - and it was just okay. I had some Trader Joes dumplings in the freezer so I didn't order dumplings here but I did order a soup and a few a la carte entrees and they were just average. But I completely changed my mind after I had the Fish, ordered special dumplings, abd had the...

Comforting authentic Chinese food at its best. I just felt like I was home eating some of these dishes.

You get complimentary salted peanuts and a little cabbage salad once you sit down along with your tea.

We got the Pork Special (Hong Shou Rou with Bok choy) and Hong Shou Eggplant. Oh man!!! SO SO SO GOOD. Damn, the flavors were just spot on. Almost like my mom made it, almost. The eggplant took a bit longer but that just guaranteed its freshness - it was coated and fried and that locked in the tenderness of the eggplant. So good! I was already a bit full but I just kept eating because it was so good.

Highly recommend both dishes and I would love to even try something else next time because I now trust this place to deliver on flavor. And with the price, you just can't beat it.

I definitely understand why this is one of my uncle's...
