Best Chinese Restaurants in El Cerrito

I have been eating at Yank Sing since it was localed on Powell Street. The food is always excellent, and the staff attentive and very helpful. It is my 'go to' restaurant when I have friends and visitors who come to the city and I like to have a quick meal at the restaurant when I am in the city by myself. It's a wonderful restaurant and having parking is extremely helpful.

I know Four Kings was chosen as the #2 Spot in the Chronicle Top 100 but I must say a tie for #1 spot is more like it! The food is amazing! So many flavors and new ways to prepare food! Even the free peanuts and cucumber salad were Devine! The Salt and Pepper Squid Skewers were not only beautiful to look at but delicious! The Mapo Spaghetti was like eating an Asian flavored carbonara. So creamy and spicy. Loved the Beef Chow Fun! Again the noodles were sliky smooth and the perfectly salted beef was perfectly cooked. The beauty of the night and maybe my most favorite was the Scallop Vermicelli! So beautifully presented and was so yummy to taste! I wish I ordered 4 of them! Last the high balls and Lambrusco were wonderful compliments to this amazing food! To top it all off the staff was fantastic! All the food arrived hot and quickly. And the staff were so nice and enjoying everyone’s experience. This is definitely one of San Francisco’s new gem! 

Dinner with a friend visiting from out of town. Had a reservation and seated at a nice table. Staff very welcoming. Although we have dined here before, we asked our wonderful waiter for suggestions, etc. We enjoyed exceptionally delicious food with distinct flavors. Great service and beautiful surroundings. Restaurant became very full and loud due to some large parties. Overall, a wonderful experience!
