Chef Hunan - San Francisco

Had the orange chicken. good portion size and great price

I've had a lot of Chinese food in my lifetime, but Chef Hunan's is something else! I am literally writing this review as I eat because it is that good. I ordered the beef chow fun and they tasted better than anywhere else I've had. There was also tons of meat, and it was a large enough portion for two people! The chili sauce they had on the side made it even better. It had a good kick, whereas sometimes at other restaurants the spice is just weak. As for the beef clay pot you MUST get it!! The tofu is so soft inside but the outside of it still holds it together well. It just melted in my mouth omg. And there's also huge chunks of beef the kind you would find in beef noodle soup! There is so much of it. And also it has veggies which I love! The sauce is so delicious. Pair it with some rice and you've got yourself three meals. Both of these together were only $25! Such a good deal, and remember cash only. The staff was also super nice and let us sip on tea while we waited. Our food was ready in 5 minutes so we didn't wait long! I could've sat there for 10 more minutes the tea was so good I already had drank two tea cups! It was just us there and one person getting takeout so it was quiet besides the staff watching TV and commenting on it, but I really loved the vibe. COME SUPPORT THIS GREAT RESTAURANT!!! You will not regret!

Very good basic Chinese restaurant. They were almost full at 6pm on a Monday evening. Props to the single waiter that handled the dine-in, to-go and phone orders all by himself. I started with a wonton soup $7.80. The broth was not a fancy broth. The chef ruined it with broccoli in the soup adding this vegetable taste to it. My house special crispy noodles $11 was fine. I noticed a lady adjacent to me ordered the same dish and her's was a lot bigger than mine. O well. Good job staff at Chef Hunan. My dinner was fine tonight.

Heads up. I was talking to the staff and Chef Hunan will remodel their kitchen from 11/21/2022 to 12/5/2022. They will be closed. As a frequent customer here, the waiter didn't want me to show up and get moded. Tonight, I had their Hong Kong style tomato beef crispy noodles $11. Excellent as always. Good job everyone at Chef Hunan.

As someone else said earlier.. very basic Chinese restaurant in San Francisco. Ordered two meals.. one was a hit and one was a miss. Orange chicken was good and had good flavor and the sweet and sour chicken had no taste at all. Meal size was very large, staff was nice, price was reasonable for the area. Restaurant overall has seen its heyday a few years ago.
