Step into a chic historic space for innovative Chinese cuisine that’s both comforting and creatively elevated, with highlights like tender oxtail and aromatic smoked squab.
"It was a big deal for San Francisco when James Beard Award-winning chef Brandon Jew took over the historic Four Seas banquet hall space and opened an ambitious Chinese-American restaurant in the heart of Chinatown. The dining room remains a green-and-white gem of the neighborhood, even following a light renovation earlier this spring. Jew also introduced a new prix-fixe menu format with the option to add on banquet-style plates like some of San Francisco’s best roast duck served with peanut butter hoisin, along with cocktails, beer, and cider." - Dianne de Guzman, Eater Staff
"Mister Jiu’s is a destination not only in Chinatown but also for all of San Francisco and the greater Bay Area. There’s perhaps no better place to get a taste of what fine dining modern Cantonese food can be than at James Beard award-winning chef Brandon Jew’s Michelin-starred restaurant. Perched on the second floor of a building overlooking the neighborhood, the tasting menu changes seasonally but you can (and should) add on a whole roasted Liberty duck served with peanut butter hoisin." - Dianne de Guzman, Eater Staff
"A star restaurant in San Francisco featuring Tsar Nicoulai caviar on its menu." - ByBecky Duffett
"Chef Brandon Jew’s ambitious Chinese American restaurant in the heart of Chinatown continues to shine, retaining its status as the only Michelin-starred Chinese restaurant in California. Though Jew, who also won a James Beard Foundation Award for Best Chef: California 2022, has gone on to introduce a number of new projects, Mister Jiu’s is the original favorite. Walk up to the bar to order a la carte or make reservations to enjoy the tasting menu, which comes with your choice of “communal entree” like the popular roast duck platter with peanut butter hoisin." - Lena Park, Eater Staff
