    Great late night spot on Polk street! great for post bar or pot night out meal. amazing chinese food and great service!

    Signature Chow Mein
    Anh T.

    My friend and I came here on a late weekend night, and we're glad this place is open this late! While there was originally no one when we walked in, the restaurant soon filled with a few groups even at 10:30PM. They had comfortable seating with beautiful scenic paintings across the wall, along with some TVs across the corner of the walls. We ordered the through QR codes their Signature Fried Rice and Signature Chow Mein with beef. The order came out within 15 minutes, and the portions were large! Nevertheless, we were able to finish our meal even with only two people. The chow mein was greasier than what I would have liked it to be, but it was as good as the fried rice. For a late night spot, Wen's Kitchen is worth trying!

    Average Chinese joint. Felt like the portions were kind of small for the price, but the location is spacious and nice. Service is mostly self-serve. Scan the QR code at the table, order and pay through your phone.

    Do not expect a dining experience here. This restaurant is more designed for takeout. When you enter, the proprietor directs you to take a seat and order from a QR code. You order and pay from your phone. There is no service per se so don't waste your money on a tip. She wasn't very helpful with questions I had regarding the menu and I selected the wrong item. It wasn't quite the atmosphere we were looking for so we changed the order to takeout and left. The food itself is not bad but a bit greasier than I prefer. Just don't get your expectations up for a dining experience. It's best for late night grub, takeout or delivery.

    hk Hong Kong Pan Fried Noodle

    honestly the food wasn't bad, but on the pricer end. wish the hk pan fried noodle had more sauce, and the wontons in chilli oil were more in a chilli sauce. shrimp was pretty fresh tho

    First time I went to this place I was drunk out of my mind. Went for a late night snack to sober up. I swear I don't remember much of the night BUT let me tell you I remember the honey walnut prawns!!! Everything I had was good, but I couldn't get the taste of the prawns off my mind. For weeks I've been craving them and wondering if they were really as good as I remember, or if I was just really drunk. So last night my boyfriend and I drove back to the city to for these damn honey walnut prawns. And I can confirm, THEY ARE THE BEST FREAKING HONEY WALNUT PRAWNS IVE EVER HAD IN MY LIFE. Ordering is through your phone, super easy. Service is also quick. If you're even on Polk street and need some eats I recommend stopping by Wen's Kitchen for sure!

    szechuan noodle soup
    Emily L.

    Friendly family-run business. I'll definitely come back. Food/drink: Many familiar chinese staples & szechuan specialties. Spice level was perfect for my group but I would've preferred more heat in some dishes. (I typically prefer more spicy than the average person). Loved the vegetarian options. Interior: Lots of space & natural light. Occasion: Super versatile - Good for pre or post-night out, they have their liquor license. I prefer going during slower periods (weekends/daytime) for more relaxing meals.

    Forgot to take more pictures but this place has delicious Chinese food! All the flavors are on-point, my favorite dish (not pictured) is the Szechuan popcorn chicken. All the Szechuan dishes had really yummy flavors without burning my tongue off! Other highlights include the hot and sour soup, the beef noodle soup, and the thinly sliced pork! Authentic flavors but very pallatable for anyone looking for a good bite. Restaurant has new ownership, the ambiance was nice and service was great! Can't wait to go back!

    Authentic Chinese food! Was craving food from home (Hong Kong) for a really long time, so glad I discovered this new spot! Ordered a ton of food and everything tasted absolutely delicious! Highly recommend the Honey Walnut Shrimp and the Beef Chow Fun!! Servers were incredibly kind and friendly, good ambience! Would definitely come back!

    Steamed Jasmine Rice, Honey Walnut Prawn, Mongolian Beef, Beef Chow Fun
    Jessica Z.

    First time visiting this restaurant & it was an amazing experience. The food was 10 out of 10 along with the service. I ordered beef chow fun, honey walnut, prawns, Mongolian beef, with steamed rice. The fried chicken was amazing. Crispiest chicken I've ever had! I most definitely will recommend this to anyone that's in the city, even if they're not in the city.

    Wen's is one of the best Chinese restaurants in SF. Growing up in Chinatown, I'd come here for a bomb authentic food! Must visit

    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

    We were seated immediately. It was raining outside. We…read moreordered salt & pepper calamari, Braised Crispy Tofu w/Red Chili Oil (can be ordered hot), Kung pao chicken, curry chicken. We loved all of it. The tea was a very comforting accompaniment. Don't forget to order it. There are televisions that are playing some things and you can also see the food being prepared inside. We'll come back here again whenever we think of Szechuan food Consider taking an uber to reach here. Parking is tough to find in the neighborhood.

    Such a hidden gem in Daly City! Came for dinner before a movie and left super satisfied…read more Super casual spot, it was easy to get a spot. It's not large inside, about a few tables. Service is quick and friendly, food came out quickly as well. Lots of people picking up to-go orders while we were there. The wings were a hit, honestly rivaled San Tung (dont at me ). Everything else was solid as well. Lots of vegetarian options for my friend. We'll be back!

    Saw this spot on social media and thought I'd give it a try during my lunch break. There were…read moreplenty of tables available on a Tuesday around noon. It's your typical hole-in-the-wall spot, but that doesn't really bear any significance when it comes to rating the food. GARLIC PEA SPROUTS ~ The greens were not very tender and weren't easy to chew. Flavor was also a little bland. 3/5 SALT AND PEPPER CHICKEN WINGS LUNCH PLATE ~ The 5 wings were crispy and crunchy, but small in size. The chicken meat was dry, and the flavor was basically just salt and jalapeño peppers. On the plus side, you get all flats, which I prefer over drumettes. I think I should have gotten the wings as an appetizer (6 wings) rather than as a lunch plate (5 wings) with white rice. If you opt for chow mein or fried rice instead of plain rice, you'll have to pay an extra $3. The menu says soup is included, but we were not offered any. However, an egg roll is given with all lunch plates. PORK CHOPS WITH BLACK PEPPER SAUCE ~ My guy ordered this and thought it was good. The pork chops were nicely fried in a light batter and then covered with a savory black pepper sauce. There was a generous amount of meat. No soup was given or offered with this dish either. 4/5 Social media likes to advertise and sometimes overhype certain restaurants. Honestly, I thought this was an average spot, nothing extraordinary or spectacular. The food, service and prices were okay. Though I'm on the fence about whether I'd visit again, as nothing was particularly memorable or enticing.
