Yank Sing (Stevenson St.)

A San Francisco institution and beloved dim sum house.My absolute favorite for a truly San Francisco dim sum experience. Yank Sing is a family-owned business that has been around since 1958. Everything is made fresh, and they taste all their dumplings daily to make sure it's all up to their high standards. They make some of the best Kurobuta pork xiao long bao (soup dumplings). It’s the perfect place to go for lunch, ideally with at least four people so you can taste more dishes. Enjoy their turnip cake, seafood-basil dumplings, har gow, pan-fried chicken buns, and best-in-class dan tat (egg custard tart) over a bottle of bubs. Their tea selection is also excellent, so you can enjoy some quality tea with your dim sum. Yank Sing has two locations, but the one on Stevenson Street has an outdoor patio.
