HOUSE OF NANKING

House of Nanking was opened in 1988 by Peter Fang. Over the course of these past decades, House of Nanking has solidified itself as a veritable landmark and institution in San Francisco... Peter also hired more employees and a sous chef to help him crank out more dishes. To this day, we are the same size as we were when we expanded and have maintained lines outside of the restaurant for over 30 years, which is really incredible in a city where restaurant competition is notoriously high. Restaurants close faster than they can open, and yet new ones pop up relentlessly, constantly challenging the old places that have been holding on since the beginning.
