This neighborhood Chinese restaurant in Potrero Hill features such Hunan and Mandarin specialties as spicy eggplant, Hunan salmon, and Peking duck—dishes are delightfully free of MSG and excessive oil. The décor mixes Asian artifacts, large potted palms, and pink tablecloths with blown-glass objects d’art suspended from the ceiling and large modern paintings. A small wine bar is located in the center of the dining room.
