    We used Harborview for our business meeting reception both this year and the last and it has worked out splendidly. Roped-off space by the bar with high tables works well for 20 people (could be expanded into adjacent area), with a wonderful appetizer spread. Highly recommend!

    We had the dim sum. It was excellent. The kitchen is very efficient. The wait stays is, also. However, there is no nicety with it. You order, food arrives, you eat and you pay. No one ever asked if you needed anything. No one offered to bring more tea. Ideal for a business lunch, in, out with very good food. I would definitely go back, but not for a special occasion.

    Very good food in a great location in Embarcadero. If I go again, will try to get outdoor reservation on a sunny day as the outdoor space (closed on the evening we went) has spectacular views of the Ferry Building. Pluses: three amazing dishes--Peking duck; special house beef; salt and pepper prawns. Minuses: very inattentive service; I suspect we were given the wrong fried rice dish (no hint of XO sauce) and then lied to. Service was slow and food came out of order with some entrees preceding the starters. Overall, I think that if we had a different server we would have had a much better experience.

    I don’t know how this restaurant is labeled as a Michelin plate. Food was nothing special. We ordered the special for $60/ per person and a bottle of wine. Food was all bland and desert was gross. Wish we had read more reviews first.
