"Yank Sing, one of the city's popular Chinese restaurants, boasts perpetual energy, especially during the week when competing restaurants slow down somewhat. The place's delicious dim sum includes spring rolls and pot stickers, while house specialties incl..."

"One of San Francisco's most famous dim sum houses, Yank Sing has two locations-and a third due in 1999 in the old Wu Kong site-giving easy lunch access to downtown workers. Sit in the restaurant's giant, white-tablecloth-formal dining room and choose eleg..."

"Loosely translated as "a delight of the heart," cavernous Yank Sing is the best dim sum restaurant in the downtown area. Confident, experienced servers take the nervousness out of novices -- they're good at guessing your gastric threshold as they wheel ca..."

"It's nearly impossible to mention great dim sum in San Francisco and not hear about Yank Sing. Founded by Alice Chan in 1958, son Henry started wrapping dumplings at age nine and moved the business to 49 Stevenson in 1974 where it became an instant financ..."

"Yank Sing is one of the first restaurants where I ever ate Dim Sum (back at the old Battery Street location) so I do have a fondness for this restaurant. I adore the onion pancakes (although they aren't everyone's cup of tea)...."

"Yank Sing offers an air of commerce in the dining room as deals are made and other business is conducted over lunch. Those who need to get quickly back to their offices or just wanting to enjoy a satisfying meal to go, make their way to the take out area..."
