    It’s a fun spot with tasty food at a moderately premium price. There is better Chinese food to be had in San Francisco, but the vibe here makes it worth the occasional trip. We had the chrysanthemum salad, which was very tasty and fresh though I didn’t much care for the dressing. It seemed a little bland to me. We had the xiao long bao, which I usually love. These were very tasty, but nothing special. The fat noodles were great. The sauce was a little sweet to my taste. The winner for me was the tofu clay pot with minced pork. Wonderfully spicy and full of interesting flavors, offset by the creamy creamy tofu. Really beautifully prepared.

    Blue Table was the perfect dinner spot for our annual SF Holiday dinner. The dumplings were delicious, the cocktails perfect, the Christmas tree was beautiful. Smelled like pine .. our server (Ashley) was great and she had fabulous recommendations! It was pricey as expected for the Marina. Would def go again. Highly recommend the baked bbq pork buns and crab and pork dumpling. Family favorites!
