Fan Tang

Oh my gosh! The appetizers were amazing, then the main meal came...I am hooked. This place is so good!!Everyone working there is polite and helpful.Very relaxed place to enjoy a great meal.

Loved the ease of this place for such yummy food! Quick service, casual vibe and everything we ate was great! I recommend the potstickers and any of the chicken dishes.

sain comfort food done well, good wine and beer choices. Prompt and friendly service. Great location in Nnob Hill. Thefoodflavourful. Private parking a plus in this part of town.

It was exciting when Fan Tang opened in Nob Hill. They continue to be a solid option for dining in Nob Hill. The food is really good. I love that you can mix and match proteins and particular dishes. They make it easy to order by queuing up to the counter. The line has rarely been short when I've been there. I love all of the banks of windows that let light in and make for decent people-watching. My one issue with Fan Tang is that almost all of their dishes have sugar in them, so are more sweet than savory. If one has to watch their sugar intake, then this isn't the place to go unless you don't have a great need to explore their entire menu. Probably their worst offender is their coffee dish. It's a sugar fest. It's actually too sweet. It sounds so interesting, but the reality is that it's dessert. I haven't ordered it, but have sampled it from a friend's plate. I want to love this place, but the sugar is too much.

The Szechuan street noodles with tofu is my absolute favorite meal here. It comes swimming in a "spicy" peanut sauce. Divine.

I have a special love for coffee chicken, and this is the only ABQ place I've found it. The Tea Smoked Beef is rich and smoky. I requested the Ma Po Tufu be very spicy, and i was impressed with the richness of the dish (if it's not spicy, it's not ma po tofu). The Seoul dumplings were unique, I'm glad I tried them. Each dish ordered with noodles because their noodles have a rich ginger and are not greasy or saucy, I just wish they gave bigger portions (see tiny box half full).

Had an early dinner with a friend. Our first time there. Was not expecting to order at the counter. We took menus, got seated and were served water. We talked, ordered, talked, ate, talked, had a second glass of wine and talked. What I appreciated the most was the ability to just sit and talk leisurely without being prodded to buy more food or desserts. We had not seen each other for a few months so we spent 2 hours there. I loved the Canyon Road Sav. blanc wine - she liked the Sake. The food was good - not gourmet but good for the price. Also, I have never seen a menu that includes a message saying it's ok to order off the kid's menu. If you like smaller portions that is a wonderful option and I wish other restaurants would do the same. Nice staff, clean bathrooms are a plus. I will return to try other food options.

The spring rolls are great, but I wish they would not cut them in half to make it look like more on your plate the lettuce base was rusty. The citrus dipping sauce was wonderful.I got the garlic, broccoli and beef with noodles. There were a few slivers of Japanese eggplant, water chestnuts, carrots with the broccoli. The beef was gristly and chewy! The other thing is that this entree was really greasy. Chinese food should not be greasy. Ugh! I had it with noodles, which were pretty standard. My friend also enjoyed the spring rolls, and had won ton, which she really liked and got a sweet and sour chicken to go for her husband, which as very heavy on the rice, and light on the chicken portion in the to go container.It was a busy Friday lunch, but the wait for food was not long. We were lucky to find an open table. I like this restaurant and was lucky to find a parking spot in their tight lot. I will be back but Tru a dish without beef next time.

Ground control to major tomGround control to major tomTake your protein pills and put your helmet on...Ten, nine, eight, seven, six, five,Four, three, two, one, liftoff...We did just that at Fan Tang's...We shared a plate of..."Jade Shrimp"...Large juicy shrimp with asparagus, shiitake mushrooms and hand tossed with the most scrumptious chinese cashew nut pesto, over noodles. The side "seaweed salad" with pickled veggies, cold rice noodles and al·be·it missing seaweed was tasty too. Washed down w. a glass of Pinot Grigio for the Lass and a bottle of Sapporo for the Lad. A fun late lunch for the Old Folk..:)This is major tom to ground control...I'm stepping through the door...And i'm floating in a most peculiar way...And the stars look very different today..:)Best, Avram Bowie Jr.

Service was great super nice waiters. But the food was not good some weird after taste, only thing alright were the crab wontons.
