Delicious Food, Great Service, No Wait!
My experience at Changs was excellent. I was impressed that I could walk right in, unlike the long lines at San Tung's across the street. The service was personable and the restaurant was not at all crowded.
I enjoyed several dishes, including the Moo shoo, halibut salt and pepper, Mongolian beef, green beans with minced pork, and a noodle dish, all of which were tasty and delicious. I will definitely come back.

Excellent Food, Friendly Service
My experience at this restaurant has been excellent on both visits in the last few months. The service was great, with friendly servers. The food was tasty and fresh, made with all fresh ingredients.
The portions are large. The atmosphere was clean, but it doesn't have an upscale feel; you go there for the food, not the aesthetics. Best of all, there was no wait to get in on either visit.
I definitely recommend giving this place a try. They also seem to do a brisk takeout business.

Excellent Food, Take-Out Recommended
My experience at this restaurant was primarily focused on the food, which I found to be excellent. The dry fried chicken wings were a standout, comparable to San Tung. The service was friendly.
However, the ambience wasn’t great, leading me to strongly recommend take-out over dining in.

Exceptional Chinese Food and Service
My experience at this restaurant was exceptional. The staff and food were outstanding, offering some of the best Chinese cuisine I've had in the city. My personal favorites include the Fish Fillet in Chili oil, Salt and Pepper Chicken Wings, and Cumin Beef.

Unexpected Gem: Delicious Food, Great Service!
While on vacation and exploring the SF Botanical Garden, we looked for food nearby and initially considered San Tung, which had a long wait. We decided to try Chang's Kitchen directly across the street after seeing their delicious-looking food in the window. From the moment we entered, the staff was kind, attentive, communicative, and welcoming.
The food arrived in a very timely manner, and every dish exceeded our expectations. Our favorites were the Wings, Honey Walnut Shrimp, and Orange Chicken. The portions were very generous, leaving us with plenty of leftovers.
We were pleasantly surprised by the affordability, with our total coming to $117. Xx, much less than our predicted $150. Xx.
We found paid street parking, though it seemed to be the norm for all businesses on that street. Our only minor complaint was the impatience and demanding behavior of some food delivery people, which detracted slightly from the dining experience, though this was not the restaurant's fault. Overall, we are so glad we discovered this hidden gem; it's a true champion.

Pleasantly Surprised Gem!
We stumbled into this restaurant today and was pleasantly surprised by the extensive menu, reasonable prices, friendly staff, very tasty food, and general proportions. We'd also give a thumb up to the clean bathroom - a rare find in peer restaurants. This would be our restaurant of choice when we visit the area.

Great Vegan Options and Service!
I stumbled upon this spot and had to try it for the vegan options, which are plentiful! It was honestly so good; we got the meatless orange chicken and kung pao tofu, and we'll definitely be back again. The service was great, and the atmosphere is homey but clean.
I really appreciate the veg options, especially compared to other Chinese spots in the area!

Best Chinese Takeout in Inner Sunset
My experience at this Chinese takeout spot in the Inner Sunset was fantastic. The portions were huge, the plates were delicious, and the service was quick and friendly. I love calling in an order because I know I'll have tasty food for several days.

Great Value Fried Chicken, Worth a Visit
My experience at this restaurant was quite positive, especially considering the value. The dry fried chicken wings were just as good as a place across the street, but cheaper and with no wait. I believe they make the food to order because we received our wings hot.
We couldn't resist and ate a couple right away. I would definitely be back to try their other dishes.

Bad treatment of delivery staff
My experience at this restaurant was marred by witnessing the terrible treatment of a delivery driver. The driver was treated badly simply for indicating that their order was delayed. While the attention from the staff was good, everyone deserves respect.
The delivery driver's job must be respected.
