"One of the Bay Area's best values is this Cow Hollow classic. Boasting a trendy Pan-Asian (or, Pacific Rim) menu and sleek, vintage Chinese décor, Betelnut is great for celebrating big events, business deals, or just enjoying long meals...."

"Tortilla Heights brings the Pac Heights, blond-het-frat vibe into the Western Addition and nourishes it with surprisingly good Mexican food. The menu is familiar, but the dishes are executed with care and panache, and there are some regional specialties...."

"Under current chef Alexander Ong, who was a Chronicle rising star when he was at Xanadu in Berkeley, the menu has changed slightly to include some new choices. One of the most intriguing flavor combinations comes in the Seoul kitchen chicken ($7...."

"Fun, festive dining spot offers snacks, dumplings, noodles, and platters of inventive Pan-Asian cuisine. Sit at the counter and watch the chefs throw together sparkling-fresh green papaya salad with mint; crisp, spicy Sichuan green beans; crunchy, juicy f..."
