Canto style foods in Chinatown SF. Was in the area with my friends and just wanted a quick lunch which this place certainly delivers. Short waits we went on a weekday afternoon. We ordered three dishes amongst the three of us. Garlic chicken was very good // well battered// fried and the chow fun tasted how we thought it would no real surprises/nothing out of ordinary. We weren't a fan of the salt pepper fried tofu and the server took note of that with real concern asking why we didn't want to take our left overs with us barely touching the dish. We were honest and said we didn't really like it and he asked for comments then took it off the check!! That was so nice we were just going to pay for it but we really appreciated that!!! read more

We had a FEAST... My BF and I came to 606 after a fun night out. We love eating family style, ordering too much, and taking leftovers. Here's the run down. Our favs: - Salt & Pepper Fish: crispy on the outside, perfectly cooked on the inside. Flaky and delectable. This was my fav part of the meal. - HarGow was fresh, perfectly piping hot and delicious. - My BF had the hot sauce, and this was (somehow) his fav. - Bok Choy: Also delish, but the chow mein came with full bok chop heads, so I'd wished I'd ordered a different veggie. Some others: - Salt & Pepper ribs were good. Maybe a bit overly salty and crisp. - Hong Kong style chow main. I love crispy noodles and felt they did this well. My BF was not a fan bc "it felt like eating raw noodles", but we both agreed theyre seasoned well and the flavors were on point. - Soup dumplings were fine, but didn't make it to the top of the list by any means. Thing we didn't care for: - Tiger Prawns: the prawns were over cooked and very tough. Additionally, they're she'll on, and all the flavor comes off with the shell. read more

4 of us ate 3 alacarte plates and were satisfied. Food and service were good. Portions perhaps a little small and prices a little high, but appreciated the clean, somewhat upscale modern interior. We would go back. read more

AMAZING FOOD WOULD DEFINITELY GO HERE AGAIN. the service was fast easy and amazing service. It was a very clean place very nice the seats were very comfortable and nice I would definitely recommend to go here ITS AMAZING read more

Tried 606 for the first time this weekend. I have to say, without a doubt, one of the best dining experiences for our family in SF. The food was delicious. We ordered the potstickers, Shanghai dumplings, onion crepe, simon's garlic chicken, Mongolian beef, and signature chow mein. I would order all of these again. Their red pepper sauce is fire! Aside from the food though, which is reason enough to come in, the staff was wonderful. You felt welcomed, comfortable, unrushed. We met Eugene, one of the owners. Honestly one of the nicest guys.. genuinely warm and pleasant, very much like his restaurant. He even treated our girls to delicious lychee ice cream. Thank you 606! 10/10! We'll definitely be back! read more

Such a solid spot for some Chinese comfort food with very reasonable prices and great service. Came here for a late lunch on Sunday, and there were a few tables taken but most were available. The space feels clean and modern, and it's relatively spacious. We got the Shanghai Soup Dumplings, Onion Pancakes, Wok Tossed Chicken and Vegetables, and the Dry Beef Hor Funn. The soup dumplings were solid -- not the best I've had and the dough was a little bit on the thicker side, but the soup was satisfying and there was a good portion of meat inside. The Onion Pancakes were crispy and not too oily, I really enjoyed both the chicken and the dry noodles we ordered. Not the most revolutionary dishes by any means, but simple, savory, and hit the spot. The service here is truly stellar. They repeatedly checked on us and came over to refill our tea and water. The soup dumplings also took a while to come out so they gave us some complimentary Hong Kong Milk Tea, which was so delicious and satisfying. read more

Probably one of the best milk teas in all of the bay area or even the US. I just rate all Hong Kong style cafes by their milk tea as it is one of those food items that defined hong kong cuisine. It was smooth, bold and had a rich mouth feel. Most places tend to water it down. 606 creates their HK milk tea the traditional way by pulling it multiple times with the filter aka the silk-stocking method. If you get the iced version, the use a giant milk tea ice cube. So your tea will taste great as the ice melts. Food overall very good. They carry the standard hk cantonese fare. They are not reinventing the wheel where, they are making the classics well. Crispy HK chowmein was crispy. I cant tell you how many places serve this in literally soup. Salt and pepper tofu had a slight crispy skin without looking or tasting like oil. Salt and pepper pork chops had a light battery without being too greasy or fatty. read more

This is a legit 4.5. They have the authentic taste in their dishes. I need to come back and try the HK milk tea.

My wife and I were hankering for some Shanghainese food, so we went to 606 for some classic dishes. The restaurant looks newer and fairly plain inside. We ordered Shanghai Dumplings (aka xiao long bao), Salt & Pepper Pork Chop, Pea Sprouts - Garlic Tossed and Dry Fry Beef Hor Fun. The xiao long bao were kinda meh. The salt & pepper pork chop was pretty good. The pea sprouts were excellent. The go fun was good. All in all, 606 was pretty good, but I'd sample other Shanghainese restaurants before returning for another meal. read more

This location used to be the New Hong Kong restaurant. I would say this restaurant now catered more to the non-Chinese and tourists. Here's what we ordered: Wor wonton soup, salt and pepper tofu w/ String beans, Sweet & sour pork ribs and crispy golden noodles HK style. The soup was a disappointment. It was bland and definitely not the wor wonton soup that I was used to. It was a bowl of soup wonton with veggies and meat. Don't know how it justified $22. Salt & pepper tofu w/ string beans was meh. The string bean was tasty but the tofu was lacking salt & pepper. Crispy golden noodle was decent and the sweet & sour pork ribs was ok. While there were many servers standing around, they must had all agreed that only one person would work a particular table. Since our server was busy, we tried to engage another server that was just standing around. He totally ignored us. With so many decent Chinese restaurants in Chinatown, probably won't go back. read more

Friendly staff and pretty good food for the price point. Cleaner and more modern than its predecessor, Sun HK. I would come back if I was in the area and craving canto food. I got the beef chow fun, sweet and sour pork, and HK milk tea. Tea's on point (do HK spots ever get this wrong tho?). read more

606 - HK milk tea - Hong Kong Style Cafe Near Me - San Francisco, California

Wonderful and fresh salt and pepper fish; interesting and delicious Hong Kong beers; friendly but not very attentive service...they tried to sit me upstairs but I was glad I got street view table. I would definitely go back here. read more

The king do spareribs was very good. A little too tender and not crispy enough for me, but they use quality meat. Service was excellent. The waitress she's learning Mandarin, the chairs are very comfortable. We will be back to try other dishes on the menu! read more

A friend recommended this restaurant to me and now I am going to recommend it to everyone! You guys must try, everything is delicious!! read more

This Chinese restaurant tastes good, the dishes are very homely and taste very comfortable. The taste is authentic and the portion is large. The service attitude is good, the environment is clean, and the price is reasonable. I am very satisfied with the meal and will come again! read more

The food was so tasty! I have a big family and they accommodated us very fast! 10/10 service

The food here is incredible. Some of the best chicken I've ever had. Vegetable bowl was fantastic. 10/10 would recommend sesame chicken and Kung Paos. More conventional American Chinese menu with an authentic taste. read more

The service was awful and the food was bland. I would definitely avoid and try another restaurant in Chinatown.

best dishes were simon's chicken and pea shoots. we were seated in a weird back area since we had a larger group and I think they need to update the space so that it is more consistent with the nicer front area they have. my hope is they put more dim sum on the dinner menu--they have some options but it is not substantial read more

Delicious food from a quality Chinese restaurant. I especially liked the Simon's Garlic chicken, which was very similar to a General Tso's Chicken. All the other dishes were well-made. The portions were a little small though relative to the pricing. So you might need to order more if you're hungry. read more

We walked in for an early lunch and were seated pretty quickly. Their menu has a wide variety of food options. We ordered salt and pepper chicken wings, Singapore fried rice (curry), pan-seared potstickers, and tea. Everything was good, but the chicken wings were way too salty. The food came out very fast, and the waiter warned us about it. The service was nice, and the ambiance was modern. Overall, the food was good, but nothing mind-blowing or that would make us go out of our way to return. However, we wouldn't hesitate to come back if we were in the area again. read more

I remember the first time we ate here. It was the day of the Lunar new year a few years ago. All of the dishes were not only delicious but we felt a sense of familiarity and comfort even though it was our first time. We were just smiling at everyone. I guess that's what good food does. We are looking forward to our next visit this weekend and can't wait! We will post pictures next time! read more

This is a solid spot for Chinese food in San Francisco. I really liked the scallion pancakes, potstickers, wonton soup and hong kong style noodles. The garlic chicken (their specialty) was a miss for me because the pieces of chicken were so small that I couldn't be sure if there was actually any chicken in there. Service was very friendly and the restaurant was really clean and comfortable. read more

606 was a great place to eat. The food was amazing. The wife and I orders so much we had to take leftovers for 2 days. The Hong Kong noodles were delicious. The service was great. They seated us super quick and it was busy. The waiters and waitresses were very helpful and attentive. The place is small so it can get a little loud, but manageable. I highly recommend this establishment. read more

10/10 WOULD RECCOMEND!! I highly recommend the Ho Fun noodles, they were delicious, perfectly seasoned, and you can taste the love in them (and wok hei) !! Our server was attentive and kind and so was the manager! I loved the decor and layout, it gave upscale yet comforting. Stop by if you're ever in Chinatown and make sure to try EVERYTHING! read more

Delicious food and generous servings! I was full all day afterwards, but I'm not complaining! The waitress was very welcoming, sounded very excited about the items on the menu when describing them, and prices were reasonable. Would definitely recommend and come back. read more

Incredible service! We came during the North Beach festival and we have a party of 6. I didn't expect to get a table at all since it was busy, but they were able to seat us rather quickly but still apologized for making us wait. They were quick with our orders, they did get one of our items wrong but was able to quickly correct it. Food came up nice and hot and they were all delicious. We ate everything. They had an extra lemon iced tea, and just gave us it. Amazing restaurant, great service, highly recommend. read more

They forgot our order of Simons Garlic Chicken and I had to ask for it when I noticed it wasn't coming. Overall, the food was decent but the string beans were the best thing that we ordered. I'm sure there's better Chinese places but maybe I just got unlucky. read more

Went for a midweek lunch after hearing about the reopening of an SF institution now being run by the daughter and family of the original owners. The staff are super kind and friendly and the food did not disappoint. We had several dishes to try things out and they were all great. The hot and sour soup, Mongolian beef, and HK noodles were well executed, and the tofu and green beans were also great. Especially liked the shallot, red bell pepper, and jalapeño in the tofu/green bean dish. Really nice touch. Random...the Eames-like chairs were some of the most comfortable chairs we've ever sat in at a restaurant. They definitely should appoint all of the tables with them. Love this restaurant and highly recommend. Will definitely be back to try other items on the menu! read more

My new favorite spot in Chinatown! Their HK milk tea is the bomb. I actually had the yin yang. Alvin actually came out to say hello. He shared the history of the restaurant and how 606 came to be. Enjoyed our super cool conversation. Will be back next time I'm in town. read more

606 is our new favorite asian restaurant! Service is always excellent and food is served fast and fresh. My favorite dish is the Salt and Pepper Fish and garlic broccoli. What I also love a lot about the place is it's not overwhelming big and it's has that feeling of an intimate family style restaurant over a chain. Owner Eugene comes out to personally meet his guests and makes you feel welcomed read more

Judging a Chinese restaurant on Christmas Day is unfair. The service was so outstanding - first time ever our reservation on Christmas was promptly honored- and gracious. The vibe was good. Several dishes were terrific and the others were fine. Standard Cantonese menu. But I'll come back happily. read more

Finally got to try this place! Staff was nice and accommodated our large 2-person order by adding another table! Ambiance is well lit and clean. Drink: The hot HK milk tea was my absolute favorite, just slightly bitter and not too sweet! Food: The "salt and pepper fish" was delicious, very crispy and fresh! Even though the menu listed a chili pepper emoji next to it, it wasn't spicy at all. The "Simon's Garlic Chicken" was savory on the sweeter side! It's excellent if you pair it with rice. The "Dry Fry Beef Ho Fun" was yummy, I'd say better than some other Chinese restaurants. It's flavorful and not too dry! Last dish was the "Wonton Soup." The broth soup was very light, not a lot of flavor but the wonton was delicious! It came with some veggies, I'd say it's a great dish if you're feeling cold/under the weather! Would come back again with family and friends! :)) read more

Very good egg rolls and service with a smile but very slow and it wasn't busy. I would try again some day read more

Delicious Hong Kong style food in a hip and elevated atmosphere! I dined here with my friends and we were so delighted by the service and tastes. We ordered the fried tofu with chopped shrimp, crispy golden noodles (HK style), beef noodle soup, and scallion crepe pancakes. Everything was delicious, but the tofu with chopped shrimp in particular exceeded our expectations (a must try!!). The beef soup also had a super rich broth and perfectly thick and chewy noodles. Other pluses were attentive service with very friendly waiters and convenient location right between Chinatown and Little Italy. During the soft opening, they also gave us Hong Kong style milk teas on the house, which were a lovely complement to the meal. Honestly wish we were local so we can come back more often read more

We have very good times there. The foods are tasty. The place is bright and clean. The staff is friendly.

Yes yes yes yes! Soooo good! It's good authentic HK style food. That milk tea omg yum! Transported me right back to HK. Simple hearty food is the vibe. Friendly and efficient service. Loved the tofu and the pea sprouts and the hofun. Can't wait to come back and try other dishes real soon for when that homey edge kicks in. read more

A bit disappointed! Heard good things about how this place was a whole lot better than the restaurant it has replaced. If the shrimp won ton that I'd ordered is used as an example, I'd say, no, it isn't! I'd paid a total of $21 for their soup that was pretty blah! All I got was basic soup broth, not very flavorful, about 8 wontons, a couple of sliced carrots( maybe 3), a bare handful of cut up bok chop that would equal maybe 3 whole leaves & there were any cut up green onions, I barely saw them. For one person, it would be barely enough to have for lunch, so if you're looking to feed more than 2 servings, you'd better order a whole lot more food. I will say that their wonton were full of at least 2-3 pieces of shrimp so I'd give them a plus for that. But at the former restaurant, this same dish would have had black mushrooms, water chestnuts, a whole lot more veggies & at least 10 wonton. I will give them another try & see if they're any better with their main courses. But $21 for a lackluster bowl of shrimp wonton soup is about $6 too much! Maybe tourists will think they're eating at a fancier restaurant so the prices are moderately priced but I say, don't let the decor fool you, there's many restaurants that will offer better wonton soups st a better price! read more
