Tasty dishes without the heavy addition of MSG and flavouring agents found in so many other entry-level Chinese restaurants in SF. Excellent value for money and fast service make for great lunch spot.

Amazing authentic tasting dishes. Very affordable, family style dishes and friendly staff. Will custom spiciness of food from not-hot, mild-med, hot, or v. hot. v. hot = lots of whole dried chilis

Very good place, recommend if you like spicy and sour Hunan cusine. Definitely the best Chinese restaurant around Montgomery. Long lines at lunch time, so recommend to arrive at around 11:30.

Order the Meat Pie. (Yes, really..) Also, great dumplings too!

Henry's Special is the obvious, and outstanding, choice. The Polish Sausage, Hunan Style is more surprising, and also excellent.

The authentic Hunan flavors may be spicy, but that's part of the experience. Don't miss the hot and sour soup and meat pies.

Fannish institution. This is where SFinSF holds pre-author event dinners. Food is pretty good, but it is particularly a good place for large groups during dinner (probably not for a short lunch).

Great Ma Po Tofu (#3)! No MSG in their cooking. You can ask for less spicy.

The Kung Pao beef and pork chow mein make a great combo. Authentic, fresh Hunanese.

Kung pao chicken was bland, everything else I've had here is great. My fave is five spiced bean curd

Everything kind of tastes the same but the spicy dishes were good. Kung pao chicken was solid.

Fresh, quick service, not too expensive - onion bread is good

Stellar food, but I think they forgot about us. We waited over 30 minutes to be served, though 3 tables seated after us all were served before us. That sucked, because the food really is amazing.

Kung POW beef is great in all of its spicy, beefy goodness.

Gets crowded during lunch, but slowly clears out around 1. Diana's meat pie is a must order
BarceFebruary 14, 2012
Get the Kung Pao Chicken. I've never had better.

It's packed at noontime, especially on Fridays. Come a little earlier or later (11:30 or 12:45) to avoid the wait.
