Description

Yank Sing is arguably the place in town for dim sum. This spot boasts reasonable prices, and while peak hours entail a wait, one can be assured of quality and abundant variety from these carts rolling out of the kitchen. The signature Peking duck with its crispy lacquered skin and fluffy buns makes for a memorable treat, not unlike the deliciously sweet and salty char siu bao. Of course, dumplings here are the true highlight, and range from fragrant pork xiao long bao to paper-thin har gow concealing chunks of shrimp. Don’t see favorites like the flaky egg custard tarts? Just ask the cheerful

Review summary

Located in San Francisco's Rincon Center, Yank Sing is known for its dim sum trolley service. Many reviewers praise the food quality, particularly egg custard tarts, and the pleasant atmosphere, including heated outdoor seating. However, criticisms highlight poor value for money, with some finding dishes overpriced, lukewarm, or greasy. Service experiences vary significantly; while some find it brisk and attentive, others describe staff as arrogant or rushed, noting issues like delayed beverage refills. Additionally, gluten-free options are extremely limited, and long-time patrons feel the menu variety has declined compared to previous years.

Best for

Suitable for diners seeking traditional trolley-style dim sum who are less price-sensitive; verify gluten-free options in advance.
