- JJosephSan Francisco Bay Area •10 reviews5.0Dined 3 days agoThe tasting menu at Trestle is simple and excellent. The pricing of it is a great value. We really appreciated the service charge and Healthy SF fees listed up front. The service is really excellent. What a treat and a great bargain as well.More infoTrestlePrice: Expensive• American• Financial District / Embarcadero•4.8
- MMichaelSan Francisco Bay Area •32 reviews5.0Dined 4 days agoThis is not a Sports Bar. It is far better even than Gastropub. This is a higher end restaurant with a welcoming bar scene. It is a go-to for good food in a lively social environment.More infoWayfare TavernPrice: Moderate• American• Financial District / Embarcadero•4.6
- DDonald JoevipLos Angeles •39 reviews5.0Dined 4 days agoFirst-time visit to China Live, and we were not disappointed! Attentive, helpful service (Raffi was super-helpful with navigating the menu), lots of choices, and quick service. We got the XLB, sea bass, and crispy noodles with chicken, and really, I can't think of a single negative thing to say about any of them. Dessert was the wonderful mandarin brownie with lychee ice cream. All in all, a wonderful meal and a great time out for my bride and I.More infoChina LivePrice: Moderate• Chinese• Chinatown•4.7
- OTOpenTable DinerTampa / Central Florida West •2 reviews5.0Dined on Nov 14, 2024Party of three - family from out of town. We walked over from the hotel so no comment on parking. Wonderful service fabulous food. We ate early and it was reasonably quiet for most of the meal but then the restaurant filled in and got a bit louder but not any worse than any other place. Prix fixed meal - balance of flavors and textures artfully crafted - I would dine here again in a heart beat. A wonderful and innovative meal!More infoThe Empress by BoonPrice: Very Expensive• Chinese• Chinatown•4.5

Discover Chinatown
A hilly enclave dotted with red lanterns and bright storefronts, Chinatown is a richly authentic place that hums with energy. Every year, the district attracts more visitors than the Golden Gate Bridge. Some of the best-loved foods include the cash-only dim sum spots, famous egg tarts from the Golden Gate Bakery, and banquet-style dining halls that serve traditional Cantonese cuisine.
