Ice cream machine; place cone in holder and it'll work its magic

Lyee C.

Great spot. Fantastic ventilation and good flavors. I was surprised to find this hot pot place, a couple blocks away from SF Chinatown. Interior is a little cramped, especially with the movable tray-carts butting up against tables for additional surface area for servers to stash the raw hot pot ingredients. Luckily, my party of six had a reservation for the evening, which was a blessing as there was a fair around the entrance. Table dimensions are well thought out, with everyone being able to reach to where the hot pot is located. It is a hot pot place and it's expected that you do a fair amount of work for your meal, but the staff were very focused on trying to get food to the table and nothing more beyond that. We had to really try hard to flag down staff to get us seated for our reservation, and during the meal, to get them to refill the broth when it ran low. Thankfully, there's lots of self-serve features in the place. There's a saucing station with plenty of recommended combos (including their house special oil). Self-serve ice cream where all you have to do is place the cone in the holder and the machines handles all the dispensing for you. And the table has a big cup of chopsticks, a jug of water, and other necessities to wrangle your food to your plate. My table did a split on the bases, and got the spicy beef tallow and a mushroom soup base. The spicy base was great and it like all hot pots, became more flavorful as the evening went on. Great ventilation is a huge plus to the place, along with the aprons they give everyone, so your clothes don't end up a mess nor smell like they were part of the hot pot too. Meats were fresh and flavorful. There is a very limited selection of non-meat options (only a few veggies and other things like noodles) so be prepared for a lot of meat. I would recommend Nan for hot pot in SF if you're going with a larger group as the table sizes and portions felt very geared towards parties of 4+ and would be harder to do with fewer. The restaurant setup, small amenities they offer and food is great, but expect very minimal help from the staff when you dine.

I wouldn't return because when I was serving myself ice cream a staff pushed me to get through. I understand it was busy and they needed to go through but they should have said "excuse me" and I would have been happy to move. We asked around for a manager and no one attended us so we just left. For that reason I will not return and would warn others to re think their visit here. Food was pretty solid, we loved how spicy the broth was. Usually we order extra spicy but it's never spicy enough so we were happy that the broth was actually spicy. We arrived 6pm on a Sunday and got seated quickly but it did get busy after. Menu has a large array of choices and meats were pretty good quality but portion sizes were small for meat given the prices.

This is à la carte where you choose different broth options , you can go up to 3 broths! I can't handle spicy , so I chose a non-spicy option I love the variety of hotpot options where you can order directly from the tablet! There's a sauce bar to make your own sauce and they have small appetizer options (which is spicy btw) There's a soft serve machine to balance your taste buds after eating hotpot~

I'd say this place is 4.5/5. The spicy Sichuan broth is spot on. Fragrant. The sour/spicy broth was not great imo. Meats quality is good here. Sauce bar has everything you need. The mango sago drink was great.

Came here with my family and no wait at 6:30 pm on weekday night. Good - Really tasty hotpot soup - Very quick with orders - Great sauce bar and nice cream - High quality ingredients! - IPad ordering process was nice - Very bustling casual vibe Bad - gets super packed by the night Overall really enjoyed this place and would come again.

My friends and I wanted to try this place since it had pretty good ratings and nice interior. We came here for Wednesday dinner, and it was pretty busy. Luckily, we had a reservation so it didn't take long before we were able to be seated. You get to choose 3 soups and all the food items are à la carte. The potato noodles was one of our faves! So were the balls with pork filling! We order by scanning the QR code and submitting. It did take some time for them to bring the items when we send in the orders. The tea was also tasty! We didn't know what type of tea but it tasted like chrysanthemum. The self serve ice cream was also pretty cool, although, we couldn't distinguish the flavor. Something similar to soybean milk, perhaps? Overall, was a good experience!

Julia Z.

The best part of this hot pot place is that they have excellent ventilation for their hot pots! Ahem. Anyway, the food was also excellent quality and the sauces were nice. My group was able to sit equitably from the pot, and I liked they provided an entire container of chopsticks because it meant we could get alternate chopsticks for raw foods. Also very limited cross contamination of the broths! Very impressed.

Sylvia S.

Finally, an authentic modern hot pot in the city proper. Great vibes and decor. Super high quality meats and broth. It's an a la carte offering, not ayce, which may end a bit pricier but offers a much tastier experience. The beefs were tender and meaty, the fish was fresh and soft. They also have ice cream and bing fen included. Definitely will be back with a larger group to try more!

Janani K.

Food was great! Vegan broths were really tasty. Ordering was simple on the tablet and portion sizes were exactly what we had appetite for. Only thing is the wait time was estimated at 12 min- we ended up waiting almost 40 min for our table. Hope they're able to modify their wait time calculations to be more accurate soon. Aside from that, I'd absolutely go again.

I was excited to see a new hotpot place open in SF, but this was disappointing. The meat quality wasn't good and portions were small. The veggie selection was also very limited.

Gloria Y.

Well... I am a hot pot person, and I only do hotpot when I absolutely running out of choices what to eat.. I heard this place through social media, and I decide to try it out! I am obsessed with it! It is so so delicious yet addictive soup base, and the meat is fresh and selections is much more compared to other hotpot places. The service is okay. They check in time to time but as more people coming in, they would tend to forget to refill your soup. But once you ask them directly, they would refill right the way.

they bring out the beef and the tripe combo on dry ice the whole table is just covered in smoke. We got the split pot and the spicy side is legit! the star of the night might've been this insane giant mango shaved ice mountain we got for dessert. It's massive and so perfect after all that spicy food. Don't get the 'Hot' spicy level if you can't handle it. The lemon soup flavor is freshing, never had soup base like this.

Nan hot pot is an elite hot pot experience. They have a great selection of authentic cuts of meat to choose from that you can't find elsewhere in SF. Their broth is also unbelievable. We got the spicy one and tomato one - both were incredibly pungent and delicious. The best part about the meal is the free ice cream after! A great idea for a cool down after a steamy and hot meal. read more

Never again. The food was fine, service was also fine. But the nickel and diming was weird. Our family of four ate far less than we have at any other hot pot, ever, and our bill came to $226 before tip. In any of our usual hot pot stops, we get all you can eat or at least another four rounds of everything and for ONE FRACTION of that price. They even charge for the sauce bar!!! I'm sorry, but I've never experienced anything like that, and for mediocre food. I suppose I'd understand if these were high end items but we are taking average at best. Save your money and enjoy much better hot pot hundreds of other places. read more

I tried the newly opened hot pot restaurant today. I've always been a big fan of this brand in China. I'm so happy that they've opened a branch in San Francisco. The soup base was just right - not so thick that it overpowered the original flavors of the food. The spiciness and oiliness were also well balanced, not at all greasy. The beef was tender and very fresh. Especially the beef slices with Sichuan pepper were so delicious that I ordered three plates! I also tried boneless duck feet, eel shreds and duck liver. What really impressed me was that the bamboo fungus in the hot pot was so tasty. If I go near Chinatown again next time, I will definitely go there to eat again. read more

Overpriced, bad service, served everything hot out of plastic; even the soup spoons were plastic. Vegetables sold à la carte. You end up with way too much of one vegetable and not enough of what you want. Could not turn down the temperature of the broth. Soft serve ice cream was free but tasted terrible and has a weird yellow hue. I'm a big fan of hot pot and with so many excellent options in SF I'll never be back here. read more

Went there on Thursday for their Soft Opening with a few friends and had a great time! We had the fried rice made by the robot Chef and a bunch of fresh premium steak marinated with sichuan peppers! Chitlins, duck, eel, baby bamboo, dry Emperors veggie.etc. Everything tasted hella hearty and the broth was perfectly balanced. They had 4 waitress and 4 chefs so the service was on point right from the start! Our Server Ying constantly comes to Check on Yang! Made us feel like a VIP! The ambiance has a very modern and nostalgic vibe and the lights are very soothing to enhance our experience! I love their snack station with all the sauces we need to make our own!

They just did their remodel for the place. I don't know what it looked like before. However we went there today and usually I would probably give a 3-4 star review but decided to give them a 5 star since they are a small business just trying to make it. Well they charged 3.00 extra for using the sauce bar. I asked the waitress how much is it for the ice cream she said free. Which she should have said it's 3.00 extra per person. I can see Karen's coming after this restaurant for extra charges like that. I wouldn't have used the sauce bar if I knew it was an extra charges. They should have a sign say 3.00 extra per person. Now it put a bitter taste for me to decide if I should come back or not because the food actually was very good. So this review is warning everyone 3.00 per person for sauce bar. The sauce bar has oranges, strawberries, ice cream, and all the sauces for hot pot. It was good. Just more disappointed in management hiding fees. Why hide the fees? Just be up front and say sauce bar is extra 3.00 sign. So that's it. Food good. But not sure if it's worth all the extra charges since other places don't add that. Well that's just my review. read more

We had around 20 people and ordered tons of dishes to share. Everything was fresh, hot, spicy, and flavorful without feeling overly heavy or over-seasoned. My favorites were either the green beans or the tofu. Every dish that came out disappeared fast. This is definitely the kind of neighborhood spot we'll keep coming back to for group dinners and celebrations. We ended the meal completely stuffed but still somehow made room for sesame balls at the end.

The only thing I was disappointed by at the end of the meal is that Sichuan Home is not closer to where I live! :( What I ordered : + Eggplant in Garlic Sauce 鱼香茄子 [4.5/5] - Really great dish! The sauce on top is really flavorful and unique. The only thing I didn't like was that the eggplant is crunchy in some parts and mushy in others. + Fish Fillet and Chinese Cabbage in Hot Chili Sauce 水煮鱼 [5/5] - SUPER spicy and chock-full of fish and cabbage. The flavor of this is very impressive and the portion size is perfect. + Couples Delight (?) [5/5] - I think this was the dish we got (by recommendation of the server). It's the sliced beef and tripe and it was SOOOO freaking good. I would get this again and again. Service was extremely friendly and very Chinese. Quick heads up that they prefer that you pay in cash.

The black bean noodles and wings are always a hit (hot and fresh). service: they were fast at first and then getting the bill took a bit but you just have to flag them down. misc: we came in around 2pm on sat with a group of 15 and got seated really fast! maybe it was luck haha. they also have two bathrooms in the back. parking can be tough but i don't usually have to walk more than 10-15 mins.

The dry fried chicken wings were on my top 10 things to try in SF when I moved here, so of course…read morewe had to order them, along with the black bean noodles. San Tung was one of the only busy spots on Irving Street during a weekday lunch hour, which felt like a promising sign. We were seated pretty quickly at a large round table across from two other diners, which was totally fine. And after looking around at everyone's tables, it was clear that these two dishes were the most popular items. Since this was my first time trying the dry fried chicken wings, I was surprised that they came out coated in a thick, sticky sauce--so not necessarily "dry" in the way I expected. Flavor-wise, they leaned more sweet than savory. I think this dish would be a big hit for people who enjoy sweet and sour or kung pao-style chicken, which isn't usually my personal preference. My husband definitely enjoyed them though, so I can see why they have such a loyal following. The black bean noodles were warm and comforting, with a nice homey feel. The sauce had good flavor, although I thought it leaned a little bland and wasn't quite as thick or rich in texture as I personally prefer. Overall, San Tung was a fun spot to finally try, especially given how much hype surrounds those wings. I'd definitely come back with a bigger group of friends so we could order more dishes and get a better feel for the menu, but I probably wouldn't come back on my own for anything in particular.

Little Szechuan

Don't change a thing, the spice level is perfect!…read more Sincerely, I'd like to meet the people who think Little Szechuan goes easy on the heat because to me, it's a blast of mala spice and numbing sensation- and I have a high tolerance. The Spicy Garlic Pork with vegetables was HOT and there was no escape: Like an opponent's chess pieces trying to grab your king, one bite after the next puts you in jeopardy. It was a good kind of peril. The Chow Mein Select noodles with lots of fresh crunchy vegetables was nicely executed with firm, plump chow mein. It was a very generous helping. I thanked my stars for the relief of white rice. The quart of hot and sour soup will have to wait until tomorrow, so much delicious food. For vegetarians, lots of menu options for you as well as those looking for unique dumplings and lots of offal dishes for those who crave it. Ambience is fresh, polished, non-touristy yet in the very heart of Chinatown where this is not always guaranteed. Locals and visitors alike, bookmark this restaurant. Little Szechuan was another Too Good to Go find. We'll be back soon, before Chinese New Year. 新年快乐

I think I almost got one of each ( no asparagus, and a few others) but I got the Wagyu pastrami, the blueberries one that is a work of art in itself, the strawberry cube, and of course, cannelés, butter croissants and pains au chocolat. Very pleasant staff, I talked a bit to the cashier while they boxed my pastries. I carried like precious cargo, but when I got home, once I opened the box, sadly the blueberries are knocked all over the box!!! I wish they took more care boxing. Give me another box instead of cramming everything in there... therefore minus one star. The store also carried merchandise like cookbooks, candles, tee shirts and sweatshirts. So if you want to wear a croissant across your chest... I have to say the goods are expensive BUT so yummy!!! I would go again in a heartbeat, but I wasn't driving ( that area is notorious for expensive parking, and non existent too ) so I can say it won't be every day. I wish they open another store in the Richmond neighborhood !!

Juniper

Juniper is in my top 3 bakeries you must go to in San Francisco!…read more I have been here a handful of times already and can confidently say everything I have had here has been exceptional and delicious. The pastries are all flaky and crispy, and you can tell they were crafted by a true craftsman. I think what makes Juniper so special is the selection of unique flavors they have. My favorite being their award-winning Cubano croissant, their black sesame kouign amann, and their choux pastries. I do want to call out how much I appreciate the amount of savory pastries they have since I don't always want a sweet treat the moment I wake up. To note, Juniper is typically busy, but I have never waited in line for more than 10 minutes, even on weekends. They also have a lot of tables for seating, but because of the flow of people, it might be difficult to find a spot. Stop by here if you're around the area! They are also a sister shop of Saint Frank, so you can get some coffee while you're here as well.

Finally had a chance to give Juniper a try, and I arrived on a Saturday around 10am. Even though…read morethere was what looked to be a pretty long line out the door we were able to order and get our pastries, find a seat in the collection of somewhat crowded indoor tables and stools and enjoy a few pastries in less than an hour. The workers are quick and efficient and it's clear that despite having a robust menu and being quite busy they've got an excellent system going to make sure fresh pastries are coming out reasonably fast. The interior is more industrial and small and definitely more of a grab and go, or sit down for a quick few bites type of vibe. My friend and i got a few things to try, but the standouts were the mulberry danish, and the kimchi bacon Danish. All the pastries were crisp, with many buttery layers and were clearly well made but these two had the most flavor and stood out as offerings that are a bit more unique compared to other bakeries in the city. We also tried the black sesame kouign amann, which was more reminiscent of a morning bun type pastry, and the cubano and the ham and cheese croissants, which were good but just lacking a little in flavor. Overall, Juniper has excellent pastries, and I'll definitely be sure to grab a plain croissant next time to try it out as well - some pastries pack a bit more flavor than others but given how quickly the like moves I'll definitely be back again to try some of their othering offerings soon!

Absolutely one of the best hotpot experiences I've had. The broth was rich and flavorful, especially the signature spicy base -- perfectly balanced with depth and aroma without being overwhelming. The ingredients were incredibly fresh, from the thinly sliced meats to the seafood and vegetables. You can really taste the quality. The service was attentive and welcoming, and the staff made sure our soup was refilled and everything was taken care of throughout the meal. The atmosphere was lively but comfortable, great for gathering with friends or family. If you're looking for authentic hotpot with premium ingredients and great service, this place definitely delivers. Can't wait to come back again. read more

Finally tried Nan Hot Pot, and it did not disappoint. The broth is incredibly rich, flavorful, and deeply satisfying--not just overly salted or mass-produced. You can tell they put real effort into the base. The ingredients were exceptionally fresh, from the high-quality meats to the crisp vegetables, and the portions were very generous. On a chilly, foggy San Francisco evening, this hit the absolute spot. Service was also attentive and quick with refills. Will definitely be back! read more
