This is one of three family-friendly, counter service establishments from Brandon Jew, the chef-owner of Michelin-starred Mister Jiu’s in San Francisco’s Chinatown and James Beard Foundation’s 2022 best chef in California. The team’s vision is to combine the rich history and flavors of classic Chinese-American cuisine with a healthful modern approach to ingredient selection and a commitment to a reasonable price point.
The menu is crisp and brief, a departure from your typical Chinese takeout restaurant. Five protein combinations are made from scratch with “transparently raised animals” and are served with jasmine rice and organically grown “wok’d vegetables” which form the core of each dish.
