Abhishek Mathur: Pork soup dumplings were heavenly. Liked the shrimp roll and chicken mushroom dumpling too.
FoodSherpas.com: SF has one of the best Chinatowns. But when asking natives for the best Dim Sum/Soup Dumplings, they'll recommend Yank Sing, despite its high price & business center locale. More @ http://is.gd/YSING
Michelin Travel & Lifestyle: If you are not seeing the dim sum item you want coming around on carts, flag down a manager and have them order it directly from the kitchen. - Inspector

Chinese Restaurant · Inner Richmond · 49 tips and reviews
Eater: Made fresh daily, Chili House's dumplings are a welcome reprieve from the numbing spices of the Sichuan fare. Choose from xiao long bao, shumai, pot stickers, and more. Read more.
Nanette: Spicy in spicy out! Get the cold noodles, smoked duck, twice cooked pork, dry fried green beans!
Debbie Chong: Explosive chili peppers with chicken is great. Rather than chopped wings, they use boned chicken. Had a garlic encrusted crab. Delightful and fresh. Szechuan green beans were fresh. Not overly hot.
