The food is delicious here. If you love true authentic Chinese cuisine; give this place a try. The ownership just changed and now I finally have a favorite Chinese restaurant in the city. Fastest take out (ready within 12mins). I ordered the chicken fried rice and pot stickers for lunch today.
The portion for a single order of Chicken Fried Rice and single order of Potstickers is enough for 2 adults. I split it with my wife and we have fried rice leftovers for later tonight.
They make their own potstickers because the ingredients are full of flavour, the skin is the perfect thickness (not thick whatsoever) and they put corn kernels inside with the other ingredients. Most Chinese restaurant in the city have not satisfied my experienced palette in decades. My wife has travelled to China for work projects and agrees that this place is truly authentic. Real Chinese fried rice should not have carrots and peas; it should only be rice, choice of meat, egg, green onion and seasoning. This place does a great job and I highly recommend it.
They are friendly and professional when you go inside to pay for the take out. I will definitely be a regular and look forward to trying the other menu items on their new menu.
Thank you Gourmet Carousel for...
Read moreReview for Gourmet Carousel, San Francisco
I recently had the pleasure of dining at Gourmet Carousel, a beloved staple in the heart of San Francisco. The experience was nothing short of exceptional, thanks to the warm and attentive service provided by Cindy Lee, who truly goes above and beyond to keep this cherished restaurant thriving.
The highlight of my meal was undoubtedly the potstickers, which were the best I've ever had. Perfectly crisp on the outside and tender on the inside, they were paired with an incredible sauce that elevated the flavors even further. Every bite was a delight, and I can confidently say these potstickers are a must-try.
Overall, Gourmet Carousel offers a wonderful dining experience with top-notch food and outstanding service. I highly recommend visiting this gem for a taste of some of the best Chinese cuisine in...
Read moreFirst time ordering food since they changed ownership. I ordered bbq pork fried rice; no veggies only rice, egg, onion and pork.
They said 10 mins on the phone and timing was perfect. I live just 2 doors from the restaurant on the Pine side. The gentleman was arriving with my food to the front when I walked in. Very friendly and professional.
The serving size is plently for 2 adults if split. I order just for myself and there will be left overs for later.
The bbq pork has rich flavour and is very tastey. The rice has good texture and flavor. The egg and season are great. Perfect amount of onion.
I look forward to trying other items on the menu and adding more images the next time I order take out from them.
Thank you Gourmet...
