The Blue Whale is a really lovely restaurant with delicious food. For appetizers we tried the Beijing dumplings and the pan fried pork buns, and for entrees we had the sweet and tangy chicken, stir-fried beef and green beans with mushrooms. Everything was delicious but the star of the show was the sweet and tangy chicken. The restaurant has a great vibe to go with its great food. We will be back soon!

Haven't been back in almost 7 years. But in town with friends and they wanted to try something different so I suggested Dancing Yak. They thought is was as good as I had sold it. Great place, great food with a great local vibe in the Mission.

    Great spot in Chinatown. Food was excellent, fun atmosphere, and the service was on point. Everything we ordered was really good, and it’s a great place for a group dinner. Definitely one of the better spots in the area and would go back.
