U-Lee, San Francisco

A hole-in-the-walls with great food, this U-Lee Restaurant has tables, chairs, white walls and delicious cuisine. Though most of the business is take-out, the dining area is small enough to fill up quickly with locals and tourists indulging in garlicky pot stickers, succulent pepper steak, flavorful braised noodle dishes and other Mandarin and Cantonese specialties that are prepared with care. Good for breakfasts and light lunches, U-Lee is a wonderful addition to the city's gastronomic circuit.
