Like many local favorites that caters to a mostly Chinese clientele, do not expect the best service. ABC is perpetually understaffed and the servers are overworked. But 2 stars nonetheless for very good food at a decent price. I love their ox-tail dish and baked pork chops, and you can never go wrong with Wonton Noodle soup.

I eat here multiple times every week and it feels like an insult every time I visit this place. If not for my elderly father who prefers a diner that is close by, I will absolutely not even come close to an offending 25 feet radius around this fail establishment or any of its subsidiaries.

Just to put it simply, the proud and mighty waitresses there make sure that you understand that the customers are only there to cause them troubles, and their services are favors for us pests and we should all be appreciative of their jobs regardless of how they do it or when they do it.

It would be great challenges enough to flag down waitresses during not busy hours for most of them would take base behind the cash register looking dumbfounded, or the walking ones would pretend not seeing us. If we do manage to catch anyone of them to make eye contacts, their impatience and annoyed look will surely fill our appetite long before food are being served.

This place enjoys its freedom to change our orders anytime without prior notice. For reference, the menu may say that western breakfast are served with eggs, hash brown, and drink. However, should they run out of any, they will be glad to take out one, two, or even all items without notifying the customers in advance (happens for two straight months during April and May 2014, from that time on we took great care to inquiry carefully about every details before placing orders). Although there are very clear menu of which set meals are being served on any day, this place just never pay any respects for that.

Should we decide to let the waitresses know that we have any problems with the orders such as the above mentioned problems, we will surely be greeted with even more insolence or even aggression as punishments to make us know our place and not proceed to bothering them. Customers' satisfaction is clearly not a concern by any of the waitresses, and there are never any higher authorities that we are able to express our displeasure.

I think their food are only at bare minimal quality if compared to similar competitors such as Tak Kee which is half a block away or T-28 that is located on Taraval. Also, food are definitely ***not*** cheap for the quality and quantity combined are way less than any of its similar competitors.

If you still wish to visit this place after this review, my suggestion is to keep your grudge and anger to yourself. Any express of concerns to anyone at that location will only result in you getting more wrong orders at a longer pace. Finally, don't forget to tip them at least 10% for gratitude. If not, you will be sure to understand that poor services does not stop there.

A great place for late night eats and to chill and talk. It's a large a newly remodeled building and is nice if a little cheap-looking inside.

Lots of good stuff to choose from on the menu, and everything is pretty cheap. Sometimes gets surprisingly crowded late at night but it's a young crowd of generally nice people.

They have some good, real chinese food. Their food is good priced and not too expensive. It is also a good portion of food for the price you pay. Their baos (buns) are really, really good too!! Very good price!!

This restaurant is open until 3 am so if you want a late night snack this would be an excellent place to go. The service is a little poor, the food took a long time to come, and the waiters weren't very attentive. But the food is delicious, price isn't too expensive, and the portions re big.
