Great experience! You cant beat a dinner with a show that is great value of about $100/person after drinks and tip.The service was great by the ladies. The owners were there on this particular night. We were welcomed by one of the owners named Skip, and he was delightful. My wife & I celebrated our 13th year being together, and our 4th wedding anniversary.The ladies were helpful, attentive, beautiful, and entertaining!Were sad to hear that theyre closing at the end of the month. I highly encourage to go before you cant experience anymore.Good luck to the ladies, Skip & the team!

I’ve been known to seek out fun and interesting things to do in San Francisco and over the years, I’ve stumbled onto several gems and only one or two duds. So, I have no idea how I hadn’t seen Asia SF before Sunday night. This show is amazing. Unfortunately, it looks like Asia SF is closing down after 26 years, and will only be open for a few more weeks. Do yourself a favor and make reservations to see this venue. The food is fantastic, the service is even better, the sound system is absolutely incredible and the dance show is truly great. I loved the passion and stage presence and the connection between the girls and the audience. Don’t be mistaken, this is so much more than a drag show. This is transgender performance at its best.I’m not sure I’ll make it back before they close but I’m hoping this review will entice others to jump up and see this show before it’s over.Michael DelehantyCompass Real Estate

AsiaSF is an iconic modern restaurant with so entertaining show. Its by reservation with limited spaces, hurry to book in advance! Promotes inclusion and diversity.One of rare such restaurants with good food, drinks and services. For sure not good for kids, serious gathering, meetings and meetup. Great for couples, group of friends, occasions like birthdays, anniversaries.Unfortunately theyre closing by end of April and will be pop up based events. A them all luck and hope they cone back.

We had a lot of fun at Asia SF!Our party of 5 made reservations ahead of time, and were seated with a nice view.The specialty cocktails were not our cup of tea, but still fun! And we still drank them ;p But I ordered standard bar drinks like Moscow mules for the rest of the show. The duck quesadillas were tasty and our vegetarian friend had many options.Our table ordered all of the desserts to share, the ice creams were popular but the lumpias were my personal favorite.The food was pretty good, but definitely not the highlight of the night. The highlight were the ladies onstage! They were so impressive, and entertaining. I could NOT do what they do in stilettos.This place is very popular for birthdays - I think on our evening we had about 12. Unfortunately, my friend was in the bathroom during the birthday shots and didn’t get one :( but hey- maybe next time!The owner is passionate. The vibe is positive and fun. Definitely recommend checking it out !

Ive waited years to go to this place and it was an outstanding show. Unfortunately we did not like the food, and that was a little disappointing at the price point. But the ladies were amazing! And the atmosphere was so much fun. I would go back for a pop-up show if it did not include dinner.

Review №11

We are somewhat torn about our experience because we really wanted it to be a special and perfect evening. While the entertainment was excellent and the food quality was good, we all walked out feeling like the staff was focusing on milking as much $ out of us as possible. It would have been fine to do it in a way that wasnt so obvious, but giving our table an attitude when we stopped doing shots or ordering more alcohol? That wasnt cool.

Fourth time going to this fantastic establishment. The food is always 10/10, their menu options are inclusive to all dietary needs. The drinks are fabulous, the wait staff is on top of their game, the bartenders are fast and on spot. The ladies of Asia SF were flawless, beautiful, and talented as always. Costumes were so amazing, full of glitz and glamour. Unfortunately this will also be the last time Ill be able to walk through those doors, they are closing. So sad to see this landmark SF place go but I am hopeful and excited to see what the girls do next. Thank you for all the birthdays and SF pride days spent, happy to have the fond memories to look back on.

OMG!!!! We had the most amazing time at AsiaSF!!! If you are ever in San Francisco - skip the other drag brunches and come here for a dinner show!!! ❤️❤️Sending a special thanks to one of the awesome owners “Skip” for taking the time to talk with us and for taking care of us to ensure our experience was great.Last but certainly not least, sending a very special shout out to our amazing smiling waiter “Karl” for being so welcoming, attentive, fun and awesome!!! You are the best ever! ❤️Thank you both! 🍸🎉🍾🎉🍻🍸It was my husbands birthday weekend and I wanted to find an awesome place to close out the birthday weekend before flying home. AsiaSF did not disappoint!Made reservations for 4 for the 6:00 show and had my 15 year old daughter with us. We were so excited!There were 3 performers and they were all friendly, beautiful, amazing and classy! We had much fun lip syncing and singing along to the hits! The ladies put on a great show with their outfits, shout outs, jokes, and choreography! Everyone made sure we were welcome and taken care of! (🍾🍸🍻)Around $ 50.00 for appetizers, entree and dessert. Experience was worth every penny.One of a kind experience! Thank you for such a memorable experience!Great news is that we heard they were expanding to Vegas. Check them out!!

This place has been a fixture in San Francisco for now 20 years. A unique experience with dinner and drag show combination. The food is upscale and mostly very good, the shows very energetic and well done. Not cheap, but certainly worth the price for the overall experience.

Nothing bad to say about the place but nothing terribly special either. The show was just the waitresses lip syncing and strutting around a catwalk. If you never went to a show with transgender performers before it is kind of novel and fun but compared to similar shows in NY, Vegas, and Bangkok it was only ok. The food was pretty good. Drink service was slightly slow but I came with a group of 20 so it is unsurprising. The servers were all very pleasant and made sure to accommodate vegetarian and other food needs when asked. It is a fun night out.

I sat at the bar and the friendliness of the two bartenders was Extraordinary. They were also our servers and always made sure our glass of waters were full and checked in if we wanted more drinks or anything else. I would give them 5 golden stars for service.I took one star off because of the Food as it was Mediocre. This place is great for drinks and for “the experience.”

One of the best places to spend a fun evening in SF. Loved the vibe of the people, and the energy of the crowd. The performers were gorgeous and very attentive. The dance show was fun and they made us do some fun things as we were celebrating a birthday.I was also very surprised with the food. Its was Asian and delicious. Loved the salmon, pork ribs, ahi tuna and the banana fritters were delish. Highly recommended to go in groups.

I had never been to a show like this before and it was amazing. AsiaSF is a wonderful establishment that anyone with an open mind who wants to have fun will have an absolute blast at.From the moment you walk in you are treated with a fun, respectful, and accommodating attitude. The servers were hilarious and kind. The food was plentiful and delicious, each dish was family style and perfectly portioned, with a range of dishes that were well curated and balanced. The show was exciting, entertaining, and exceptionally tasteful. The women were very talented! For our show, we ate maybe 2/3 of the dishes in the first 45 minutes, then had a few shows with three of the women, then ate some more during a break, and then had a final section of shows. It was a well balanced and entertaining programWe came with the entire family (all 21+), which is perhaps not the typical group to attend a show like this, but every single one of us laughed, cheered, and had an incredible night. 10/10, cant wait to go back!

Great food and entertainment. The drinks are good and strong. You cant really go wrong with ordering cause they all taste good. Only reason I omitted one star is cause I wished they performed 3 times instead of 2.

Amazing transgender strip club and burlesque show. Great place to dance, get drunk, grab a bite to eat, and see beautiful trans women. The atmosphere is like a cyberpunk dream, totally wild! The women are beautiful and talented, the food was good, the ambience is good, the cocktails were amazing and named after dancers (cute!), and the crowd was also good. Went here with my partner. We had a great time! You cannot skip this place!

Review №36

I came here not fully knowing what to expect, and had a great time! Overall, AsiaSF will set you back a bit of $$$, but the experience is well worth it. The food is good, the drinks are decent (lots of sugary, colorful cocktails which arent my thing), and the service is good (although one of the two servers we had had a pretty snotty attitude). The performances were great and they really know how to get the crowd going. This is one place I recommend anyone visit the next time they are in S.F.BE WARNED: Youll want to make reservations well in advance.

Review №38

My boyfriend and I aren’t your classic himbo gays, and we had the unfortunate experience of being seated next to a group of classic himbo gays; which lead to us getting treated like furniture for most of the night by the staff. To the point where they literally forgot to bring us the check at the end of the night for 20+ minutes after the show had ended because they were too busy staring at the guys next to us.The food was good, but I’ve had better in the city for less. The entertainment was fine and the girls lovely, but there was little more than pageantry happening onstage. This isn’t the place to go to be “wowed”. I certainly didn’t feel I got my money’s worth for $360 for two. (That’s two drinks each with dinner). We won’t be back.

What an amazing experience and a great evening we had!! Its a place where not only you will get entertained but can enjoy great delicious meals. There are very limited places where you get a combination of both. All tyw performers were great and we thoroughly enjoyed it. After the dinner you can dance away the night in their night club downstairs which has a bar also and the DJ was great there. All in all a place you all should definitely check out.

This party area is located at the left side stairs after entering main entrance. At bottom of AsiaSF you will see attached photo. Packed and very hot atmosphere, crowded to get drinks ($12 Long Island) decent prices. Biggest table must reserve, others are first come first serve. Music is very diverse, mostly Latin than other genre (cumbia, regatón, rock en español, merengue, salsa, and many others). Overall, good place to spend a drunken night👍🏼.

I drove from Modesto tonight to have dinner and see the show after talking to some friends that had just been there. What a treat it was for me! I had the Tamarind Chicken Satays, Orange Lamb, and Green Tea Cheesecake, all very good and creatively made. The guys at the bar were very friendly and attentive. Also, loved the show put on by the girls, all very gorgeous and talented. I especially liked London (I think thats her name) the one with the long braids. She was was so sweet and nice, gave me a hug as I left. Thanks everyone for a great time!

I brought 7 of my closest friends (including my conservative 70yo mother) to AsiaSF for my birthday. AsiaSF had been on my SF bucket list since I moved here and I was excited (yet nervous) and it absolutely lived up to the hype from the moment I arrived to when I finally stumbled away.The food? Beautiful, delicious, plentiful, and accommodating.The entertainment? Literal jaw-dropping performances by the most blindingly beautiful people I have ever seen in real life.Our server, Jasmine? Attentive and a wonderful performer! We ADORED you!!And my mother and my guests? Loved every second. By the end of the evening, we had all lost our voices and were absolutely awestruck.Photos do not do AsiaSF justice. It is an experience that needs to be lived. If you’re waiting for a sign to go, just go.

The people here was doing their very best to make us feel we got our moneys worth. Great show, good food and fun reception in the night club in the basement. We could not help feeling sorry for the staff. They were over-worked and stressed like ducklings struggling towards the surface to make everything go around. They double charges us. Luckily we noticed and got an updated bill. Great show!, you can tell the ladies have invested a lot in their appearance and they really owned the stage. It was a messy but fun experience. Friendly staff. The handle bars in the staircase could use a clean.

A bit on the pricier side but the food was good and the girls performing were great. Awesome service and good drinks named after the ladies. They really make sure youre welcomed and have a good time. Id definitely go back again. The downstairs club was ok, we didnt stay as long but there was good music (Latin night) and the same great service from everyone from the bouncers to the bartenders to the coat check guys. Everyone enjoys their job and customers there.

This is by far been my favorite night time experience in San Francisco. My first time going was for a bachelorette and I had so much fun that I decided to go back 2 months later with one of my best friends that was going through a breakup and I could not believe how unbelievably sweet and supportive everyone was to her throughout the night. This is the best place to celebrate anything! Love love love!!!

Review №53

Staff was really friendly, attentive for it being pretty packed. I liked the fact that they have a downstairs lounge/dance area for one to wait for their reservations. Once upstairs, after ordering and getting your first course, the appetizer, the show starts! Definitely a fun thing to watch while eating dinner, the ladies are entertaining and a majority of them were pretty interactive with the crowd, especially those that tipped!

We went for the show, but left pleasantly surprised about the food. The food was actually really good, and the family-style course serving meant there was always food on the table, but not a bunch of dishes. The cocktails were also pretty good, if maybe a bit too sweet. The show was great, too!

Such a fun night out in SF, they have everything you need for a good time in one place. I have been here twice and the ladies always make sure that everyone has funThe dancers are wonderful, of course, and playful. The waitstaff is great too, especially considering how packed it is there! This last visit our waitress was Trina, she is a delight, we had so much fun with her.The drink selection is great, there is a full bar downstairs. The food they bring is tasty and just enough to fill you over the time you are nibbling. But seriously the crabcakes are just too good!Go there for a birthday or anniversary or for any reason, but definitely give them some reason to help you celebrate. Its all part of the fun.

Lots of fun especially if you come here for a birthday party. These girls are entertainers and theyre here to make sure youre having fun. The food and drinks are only so-so but for the price, youre getting a hearty portion (aka filling) and with entertainment so you cant beat that. The owner was extremely friendly and gave us free shots for my friends birthday. Great fun.

Review №62

This place is amazing, I had a great time. The food was good, girls amazing, nightclub was jumping. Its a one stop for everything. The menu is prix fix 3 course. You choose an appetizer, entree, and either a dessert or dessert drink.I had the salmon firecracker which is a salmon egg roll. It was pretty good, never really thought of salmon in an egg roll but this was well executed. I had the diver scallop entree which was okay. After looking at my friends bbq ribs, i wish i had that. The scallops are in a nice sauce or broth with veggies and rice. Lastly I had the banana split. But the real star of the restaurant are the girls and the show. In 2 hours, about 8 girls danced a 3 or 4 minute set and they all were great. Lots of energy and the crowd were really engaged. If you are getting married (or divorced), birthday, anniversary, whatever, this is a fun place for any event. I will definitely return.

Review №63

The food was very good. But people mainly come here for the show. Its a burlesque type show where the transgender servers will get up on the bar to dance in between courses. Unfortunately this makes it hard to get drinks while theyre putting on their show - which would have probably made the show a bit more fun. I suggest ordering a lot of booze up front so you can enjoy the show with a drink in hand.

Review №64

Very entertaining. The ladies look terrific and put on a great show. Im impressed when anyone can dance and perform in high heels on a bar counter. The food is decent, about 3-4 stars. Seems like a good place to take out-of-town guests who want something different. Popular for birthday parties, bachelor/bachelorette parties, etc. Or dont give away the secret to your dining party and have it be a surprise.

Review №65

I enjoyed the performances, some performers, as usually were better than the others, but mostly there were interesting, some humorous, and well-rehearsed pieces with good sound. Food was solid. Was it not for the exuberant SF food scene, I could have given the dinner a better rating; alas, this place happens to be in SF, where dining competition is tough.

Review №66

So much fun!!!! For those that didnt know this is a restaurant with live male (dressed as female) performances. The ladies are beautiful and dressed to impress. They do a few shows through out the night where they dance on the bar performing their someone what scandals but fun performances. I had a great time, everyone is very friendly and just there to have a good time. The food was actually impressive, I wasnt sure what to expect there as its known for the performers, but the food was very good. The drink specials were very sugary and fruity, but they have a full bar so you can get something else too!

Review №69

Its entertaining. The food is decent. Seems like they run two shows so everyone gets seated at the same time, you pick one of the two menu groups and then they start bringing the food out to everyone and everyone is done eating and leaves at the same time. The show takes place in the dining area so as you eat performers strut by on the bartop. There is also a bar/dance floor on the basement level.

Entertaining and fun atmosphere with a friendly staff and decent food. AsiaSF is a very unique dinner and a show with dancers on the bar every hour and walking around socializing in between. The dancers/staff are surprisingly feminine. The staff was very friendly and service was quick. Good want bad and they have some decent menu options. You certainly netted a reservation to get into this place and its reasonably priced.

The place is full of flies, the food is horrible and the show is totally overrated (same as the place).I ordered one desert and they brought me other and when I asked them for the right one they told me they “run out of them”.

The ladies put on a fun and terrific show. I went for a friends birthday party and would highly recommend this place for large groups and parties. The food here is decent but dont expect any exquisite cuisines, the mean feature here is the show and its a blast. Theres a dance floor downstairs as well, a perfect way to keep the party going after dinner.

Review №74

Lets be honest: dont go for the food or drinks. Go to watch the show. The performers work their hearts out. The food is average. The booze is just alcohol. The performers are good but dont expect drag queens. This is different. Most people here are groups of bachelorette parties or birthdays. The staff is very well organized though.

Review №75

Came here for my birthday. Honestly, if youre a single man go downstairs to the bar and its literally a 90% female crowd that comes here - you could clean house. As for the dinner - the food is pretty darn good. Where AsiaSF falls a little flat is my expectation for the show might have been a little too high. I was hoping for a little more than the few performances they had - though I had a very good time. Perhaps the show was better in the past but I couldnt help but feeling on my birthday that the performance was - phoning it in on both the energy level and performance overall. The transgender staff and performers are wonderful and some are absolutely gorgeous. Its definitely an experience I would recommend, but I had to reserve just one star back from 4 because outside of a special event - I dont see myself returning again unless the performance aspect is kicked up a notch. Id much rather take myself to a nice steakhouse for the price next birthday. Kudos though AsiaSF - it is something everyone should experience once. A SF must go!

I made reservations approximately two months ago for an anniversary dinner and show for my wife. We were looking forward with excitement to our night. We arrived 45 minutes prior to our 9:15 seating and were shuffled to a bar downstairs. We assumed since we had checked in so early that we would have an actual place to sit, we were wrong. They added two stools to an already overcrowded bar, there was room for possibly one adult but not two. We asked for something else and they showed us a table. My wife had to sit with her back to the stage so she turned her stool and was told by the hostess that she had to sit even further to the bad angle to accommodate another four people. We complained and the response was a quick sorry. While waiting for our ride several other people left grumbling. Not a good experience.

I did not know what to expect coming in. First off you walk in like you are going in a club, they have their red carpet rolled out and even back drop for a photo op.Best that you res online, because the place looks like it would sell out. We had a group of 4 so for the fixed price we paid ($55?) we each got to pick an appetizer, entree and dessert. I think it was an Asian fusion type of food. The food was amazingly good!!As we were enjoying the food, all of a sudden the lights by the bar and the music turned on, and our waitress is on top of the bar dancing!!It was really fun, after dinner, you can go to the club downstairs... there was stripper pole on the corner, a bar and a live dj...

I came here for a wedding pre-party, and had such a good time! The foods here were mostly finger foods, but they werent bad. The drinks were good, and the entertainment was the best. It was probably the best show Ive ever seen. Our waitress was actually in a few of the acts and she blew our minds! They also looked so good and in character with the songs they performed. If you have any open-minded visitors coming to check out SF, I would definitely recommend that you take them here. Its a local gem that shouldnt be missed.

What a fun evening of great food and entertainment! Came here with 3 other friends. We didnt have reservations but were seated quickly. Not the best view of the stage, but what do you expect at 7 on a Saturday.Our waitress wasnt the hottest girl in there, but she was sweet as sugar! We all got the prix-fixe menu, selecting different items so we can share. Most of the items are small plate style things. Everything was really good! I think my favorites were the Miso Glazed Salmon and Tamarind Chicken Satays.The stage show was awesome! Lots of interesting moves up on stage! Id highly recommend this place for a unique and fun evening. Take the out of town guests! I guarantee youre parents havent been to a dinner like this.Ready to go back!!!!

I am at loss for words for the absolutely most EPIC experience we had last night. I honestly cannot say how THANKFUL we were to choose this location for my daughters bachelorette party. The customer service, the food, The Stunning ladies it was absolutely Incredible! A huge shot out to Darrel our party host for the evening who went above and beyond to take care of us and made our night... A night we will never forget!! We cannot stop talking about it. We love you Darrel!! Thank you for everything..Highly Recommend!!

I would like to say that this place deserves my time to write a review and to give 5 stars rating. The food is delicious and the performers are very good. The servers are warm, friendly and really efficient. I encourage others to come and visit this bar.

7/17/13My friends recent bachelorette party started at a spa, followed by a limo ride to dinner at AsiaSF. Holy $#*! This place was amazing. Our reservation was for 7 and a dinner selection was pre-chosen that included lots of menu items. It requires a minimum party of 6 to feast the way we did, or I would have already returned to eat again.I cant say enough good things about the food. Everything was served in a shared manner but there was plenty enough for everyone to get a taste of it all. And a TON of food was brought out. There was nothing that we didnt enjoy. The special requests of one veggie/gluten-free girl were also catered to. A boutiquey place like this could totally get away with a crap meal because youre mostly there for the show. We were all surprised at the quality of food. And the drinks! They were great! We received a comp shot for our bachelorette party celebrations and some of us received an additional one for checking-in on Yelp. Heck yes!The show was hot. The ladies were smokin! And the male staff (like the guy bussing our table with the snakebite piercing)... they were all gorgeous too! How does it feel being really, really, ridiculously good looking?Everything about the night was special. They even personalized our menu so that we could keep it as a keepsake. We interacted with lots of staff and they were all very attentive and friendly.After dinner, we went downstairs and danced in the nightclub. Free admission with dinner. The vibe was awesome! I wish we had stayed longer than we did but the bachelorette celebrations continued elsewhere. Ive already started working on a group of 6 for a return. Cant wait to eat here again and oogle all the sexy dancers some more.

Attentive service, mouth watering food, delicious drinks, and AMAZING show!! The gorgeous ladies of AsiaSF DO NOT disappoint!! A+ service, expect to spend $100+ per person, definitely worth EVERY penny! There is a dance club downstairs on weekends, PERFECT for bachelorettes, anniversaries, and pretty much ANY sort of special occasion.

This place is tons of fun with a group. It gets loud, it gets crazy, and the food was quite good. I wish the serving sizes were bigger. Make sure to sit in front of the bar if you want the best view of the show.

Ive never heard of this place before and I was only looking for a different Asian restaurant when I went to Asia SF. First thing I noticed where the hot and sexy girl servers, who had cocktail drinks named after them on the menu, and who also happened to perform on Stage/bar table. It was a fun night and I noticed a lot of bachelorette parties there. Food was a very interesting fusion of Asian and American cuisine. After the show I found out there was a dance floor downstairs, also with the girls performance and lots of fun. Definitely Id recommend this place for any special occasion .

Ruined my cousin’s bachelorette party! We had reservations at 915 and by 10 we had not ordered dinner and had no idea if or when we would be able to. The bride was crying because she was so hungry and we based our whole night and basically our whole trip to San Francisco around this celebration and we finally gave up and left. We were supposed to have the package with the scavenger hunt and that didn’t happen either. We were so excited and it was a huge disappointment. Would give negative stars if I could.

Review №92

I had heard about AsiaSF quite a lot before I ate there. Maybe if I went when I first moved to San Francisco it would have felt novel, but having been here for a long time it was nothing new really. The food was alright. I expected the staff to be more lively and entertaining. Perhaps I had high hopes and it just didnt match what I had imagined. For the price it wasnt worth it. Maybe if I had some out of town friends it would be fun to take them there, but with all of the great food in San Francisco this isnt a place I would pick.

St
Review №93

Asia SF is definitely fun, and the girls there are pretty amazing. The food is delicious and the show is entertaining although it wont blow you away. But the price is rather high and the entertainment value doesnt quite rise to meet it. Dinner and two drinks for two was $200. Worth going once for the experience but prolly not worth a repeat visit.

Food: We had the appetizers -- pretty standard, nothing amazing.Decor: Minimal -- the main attraction was the drag show! I threw my BFFs bachelorette party here and the drag queens were drop dead gorgeous.Service: I booked our party online -- straightforward and easy.

The dinner and performance were great, but unfortunately they charged us a much greater amount than what they advertised on OpenTable for their new years eve show. This happened to the other tables next to us and it soured our whole night.

Review №99

Great experience, downstairs on Saturday is overly crowded. Though, I do believe their downstairs club has the best female to male ratio in all of Sf night clubs. Though, a lot of the guys here are gay or bi. Most dont stay downstairs. Girls can get crazy.

Review №100

Fun place with great entertainment for a bachelorette party! Our party arrived early before it was too crowded, which was nice. Our bachelorette got two dances from the AsiaSF ladies who look and dance amazingly! The drinks and catered small bites were decent. When we left, we saw a lot of people eating on the main floor, though I cant really vouch for the menu. The bottom floor is where the small stage and reservable rooms are located, next to the dance floor.

Review №101

Only place in town that has transvestites as your entertainers, but its so very easily missed by many because you cant really tell that they are actually men. I dont know why men have such an easy time convincing people that they are females. I recommend going to this place if you havent been to it before. It can be a lot of fun especailly on the weekends where it gets rather crowded.

Ni
Review №102

This place sells non-threatening exoticism to people looking for novelty without being challenged, and it does it well. The show was entertaining, the food was good. It was very loud and almost impossible to carry on a conversation though, even during the break between shows. Definitely a place to go with a group.

Review №103

Fun way to celebrate a birthday, promotion, or really any occasion.The ladies in drag sing and dance to popular songs while you eat and drink. Food and drinks are a set menu and rather expensive given the on par quality. I would recommend trying this for the novel factor, but I probably wouldnt make myself a repeat customer.

Review №107

When i first heard of this place, I thought it was going to be like that movie, Burlesque, with christina aguilera and cher, but guys dressed like women. But they actually just danced on a walk way, which was pretty good. Food was ok, but I kinda wish that they had more options... I am allergic to nuts and most of the meal plan had nuts, so instead of placing it on the side, they just told me which ones had nuts since the meal was already prepared, which i guess was good. Environment was nice and was actually a pretty good show.

Wow, what an incredible experience! AsiaSF truly defines what San Francisco is all about with their Fabulous Divas strutting down the catwalk with award-winning performances, exotic dishes, signature cocktails, dessert menu and so much more! I attended AsiaSF for my bachelorette and birthday party! I highly recommend this restaurant to all of my friends and family. They also host private events as well!

Review №110

They never cleared anything from the table and were confused and I had to repeat myself when asking to clear the 3 courses still sitting around while ice cream was brought out. The orange sauce was too dark and had a burnt flavor. The peanut noodles needed more peanut. Vegan friendly options though and labeled menu.

The best entertainment venues in San Francisco with food that rocks your stomach! And the performance like a cherry on top with your Sunday, decadent rich decor. Simply the best female performers.

Review №116

I came here recently for a bachelorette party, and had such a great time! The servers were super duper nice to us throughout our experience, and the ladies on stage were awesome!And I was surprised how good our meal was. We had the Platinum package, which included chicken satays, Asia-dilla, blackened tuna sashimi, baby bok choy & shiitakes, grilled shrimp & herb salad, miso glazed salmon, orange lamb, baby back ribs, sesame soba noodles, mini ice cream cones, and banana beignets. The only dish I didnt like was the orange lamb. Lamb can get gamey, and the orange sauce didnt help. And I wish there was more salmon for our party of 11. They gave us two of them, when it really should have been 3-4. And when we got our desserts, they only gave us 6 ice cream cones, and one plate of the beignets. We asked for one more set of ice cream, and they gave us another 6, which was now too much. So if you dine here with a big group, expect good food, but not big portions.I also ordered the Pussycat, and unfortunately they dont have the drink menu online. It wasnt strong, but it was delicious. And when they came to the table, they announced the order... minus the cat. It was very amusing to hear, and I raised my hand proudly to say I ordered it.I think going to AsiaSF is part of the San Francisco experience. I would go again for special occasions.

Only in SF. That is the first thing I will say. We went here for my buddys birthday and were not quite sure what to expect. This is a night I wont soon forget- check out the website and some pictures and that will better explain the quirkiness that is Asia SF. If you have some family or friends in town looking to get a taste of the REAL San Francisco- do not pass this up,
