Best Family Style Restaurants in SOMA

I thoroughly enjoyed China Live which provides a way cool ambiance over any San Francisco Chinatown I've been to. I would prefer a little more variety in the dimsum... and enjoyed their very cool way of presenting Peking Duck which is as effortless as a Cha siu bao. I am a fan of their way of doing Chinese fusion cuisine and will return again.

Taksim was incredible! Turks are some of the most hospitable people you will ever meet. The service was wonderful and we felt so taken care of. It was our anniversary and they gave us complementary Prosecco! We got the tasting menu which is extremely fairly priced. Every single thing was amazing. Favorites were the ezme crunch, blackened cauliflower, crispy shrimp, mantı, and the branzino- so fresh and perfectly crispy skin. Afiyet olsun!

We have been here 4-6 times. As always the food was phenomenal. The service is discrete but attentive. The tomahawk is cooked perfectly. The bone marrow is unbelievable. The salads are tasty and lightly dressed. The potato stack amazing. We tried pig ears tonight: wow. The deserts have different flavors, different textures and colors. Mainly good. And one does not get bored with it

10 out of 10, this place was AMAZING! The blended service of ordering items of the menu and Dim sum style with the carts was fantastic. Our server gave up great advise in only ordering a few things from the menu then waiting for the carts to come around. We went here for my wife's birthday and she was so happy we did. We will for sure be back for another special occasion.

Awesome in all aspects we weren’t rushed which I a plus
