    Capital Restaurant
    Critics' Pick
    839 Clay San Francisco CA 94108
    415-397-6269
    Capital Restaurant
    Capital Restaurant, which many Chinatown insiders pick for homestyle Cantonese food, has been around long enough to look of a different time. Was it last redecorated in 1955? 1972? It's hard to tell. The scuffed linoleum is clean but the color of a sunburnt map, and the lunch counter at More

    Empero Taste (Best Panda)
    4052 Balboa San Francisco CA 94121
    415-876-3298
    Formerly known as Best Panda, Empero Taste is a big banquet hall in the far reaches of the Outer Richmond, where large groups gather for Cantonese feasts. The portions of claypot dishes, salt-and-pepper calamari and prawns, and vermicelli noodle bowls are generous and filling. With leftovers practically guaranteed, Empero Taste More

    Kam Lok Restaurant
    Located down a flight of stairs, Kam Lok is a family-style Cantonese restaurant in a neighborhood packed with them. Look closer: Despite the unflattering lighting, the walls of Kam Lok's fish tank are clear and the tables aren't sticky. Another plus: few tourists. Under the glass on top of your More

    Kam Po Kitchen
    801 Broadway San Francisco CA 94133
    415-982-3516
    Kam Po Kitchen
    There are more dishes on Kam Po's menu than restaurants in Chinatown: dozens of variations on congee, rice plates aplenty, hot pots, noodles, and barbecued and stewed meats. Straightforward Cantonese dishes, they cost less than $5, which explains why the waitresses spend as much time sprinting as a seventh grade More

    Little Garden

    Little Garden
    In English, Little Garden's sign advertises the free 90 minutes of parking customers get at the garage next door, but its Chinese-character subtitle, "Hong Kong-style Cha Chaan Teng," is more telling. Cha chaan teng, cafes specializing in simple eats and Western-influenced dishes, speckle the streets of Hong Kong. They're where More

    Ma's Dim Sum & Cafe
    1315 Powell San Francisco CA 94133
    Ma's Dim Sum does indeed serve dim sum - there's a bakery case in the front with dumplings and cakes, and the occasional table splits a plate of sesame balls - but the "cafe" in its name seems more apt. With its checked linoleum flour, pink walls, and wood laminate More

    Ducks and magenta strips of pork hang in the window of this bare-bones but clean cafe in the Portola. And it's a good spot for rice plates crowned in soy sauce chicken, but also homestyle Cantonese dishes like steamed pork patties with salted eggs (which the chef makes himself), served More
