House of Chao Restaurant

I lived in San Francisco for 16 years where asian food is abundant and really good, as the population of the city is a majority of asian ethnicity. But House Of Chao, to date, has some of the best Chinese food I have ever had, period. And specifically, with out question, the BEST dumplings ever. You will not be disappointed by anything you order!

Service was slow, but they were very busy when we got there in their defense. Everyone was extremely polite and professional. The food was excellent, with generous portions. The shredded pork soup was one of the best soups I've ever had.

Great neighborhood hidden gem. Lots of great American Chinese options. Perfect for families looking to explore a new option. Highly reccomend the cumin lamb.

Last night want first time eating there. I heard about it from my Cousin and Aunt. They both suggested that I try the fried dumplings. Boy was I not disappointed. The taste was outstanding a perfect blend of pork ginger and scallion slight hint of garlic wrapped up in a light as a cloud hand made dumpling wrapper. They are made fresh daily. The other offerings we partook in where the lamb and scallions dish and the Kung Pao chicken. Both fantastic dishes. We also enjoyed the cabbage soup. The aroma and flavors in that soup where subtle and warming. They also serve a delicious jasmine tea upon your arrival. While the decor doesn’t scream fine dinning the food speaks for it self and say’s otherwise. I will happily be returning again and also I will be sure to pay it forward and tell my family and friends how delicious everything was.

Very good food. I've been going here for 15 years. The General Tso's Chicken is unlike any other. Very crispy with good sauce and veggies. The veggie lo mein is also very good. ????
