There are two other Richmond District spots that often get mentioned in magazines and newspapers, but I haven't been to them for the earlier mentioned reasons, but I thought I'd list them here for your reference: Hong Kong Lounge (5322 Geary Blvd between 18th Ave & 17th Ave) and Ton Kiang (5821 Geary Blvd between 23rd Ave & 22nd Ave). Location: 3319 Balboa St (between 35th Ave & 34th Ave), San Francisco When I don't feel like dealing with it I go to Yank Sing which probably serves the second best! We can make you faster than a speeding bullet and leap buildings in a single bound. The restaurant is divey, not so clean and the service is on the rude side, but the dumplings…ah well, that makes it worth it….sometimes. Specialties: Our business specializes in making our customers feel like superheroes.We provide a range of products and services, and go above and beyond your expectations to deliver on time and with a smile. Known as “xiao long bao”, meaning soup dumpling, it is made with a circular base and pinched at the top prior to steaming. As the name suggests they are known for their Shanghai dumplings (although they serve other items as well). This is the one place in the Richmond I would go out of my way to visit.
