Hai Ky Mi Gia - Reviews

My experience at this restaurant was fantastic! I had the authentic Teo Chew soup noodles, which were truly delicious. The owner was incredibly friendly, making the visit even more enjoyable. It's also very reasonably priced, offering great value for the quality of food and service. I would definitely recommend this place.

My experience at this restaurant was fantastic! It's a hidden gem in Tenderloin, offering affordable and great HK style noodles. They have many protein options, including authentic chicken and duck leg, all of which were great. I will definitely come back!

I've been coming here since I was a kid, and let me tell you, the food tastes just as good as I remember. It's a wonderful family setting with great food that always makes you want to come back for more.

My experience at this restaurant was marked by excellent food, although the surrounding neighborhood felt a bit questionable. I wish they offered fresh herbs with their meals, as this would significantly enhance the flavors. The service was impeccable, rated a 5 out of 5, and the atmosphere was also highly rated at 4. The noise level was quiet, making conversation easy. The price per person was between $10–20, and we enjoyed indoor dining with no wait time.

My experience at the restaurant was very positive. I enjoyed the Braised Duck Leg Egg Noodle Soup (Dry), which was delicious. The service was fast, and the Homemade Soybean drink was also good. I highly recommend this place.

I walked in here expecting the best noodles I've ever had, and I feel fulfilled! The noodles were fantastic, and the atmosphere felt like family. Just be cautious of some of the action outside.

I've been revisiting Hai Ky for 15 years, even after living in SF for a short while. The craft of the food here is amazing; it's a regular topic in my group chat. The broth is restrained but near perfect, and the noodles have platonic ideal textures of gloss and chewiness – glorious, bouncy, and well-dressed. The rice noodles are especially impressive, so fresh and well-cooked. The main noodle dish is famous in South China (featured in a Netflix documentary) and especially through Thailand, Cambodia, and Vietnam, and they show the slight inflection of how we eat it in SE Asia. The condiments are also perfect, like the pristinely sliced chilis in vinegar brine. I recommend getting the special with all the noodles and also the fried fish cake if they still have it. I'm sad to see how abandoned downtown SF and especially the Tenderloin feels now on recent visits, with many restaurants barely living. I selfishly hope they'll live on for many more years. Support them in all ways, and please tip all the people well. Bless! 🥲

My experience at this restaurant was exceptional. I had the Braised Duck Leg Noodles, which were the best noodles I've ever had. Even though I arrived late, after their closing time, the staff were still waiting for me, which was incredibly accommodating. The food, service, and atmosphere all received a perfect 5/5 rating, making it a truly memorable dinner.

My experience with the food delivered from this restaurant was really good. The duck meat was nice and tender, and the garlic noodles were so very good and tasty. The food was very decently priced. I can definitely see myself ordering some food from here again. I highly recommend takeout from this restaurant. I give them 5 stars ⭐️ all around.

My experience at this restaurant was very positive. It's a down-to-earth place with nothing fancy, but the noodles were truly great. I went in for a bowl of noodle soup and walked out with a smiley face. The service, atmosphere, and food all received a perfect score of 5.
