Reviews for Gourmet Carousel in San Francisco, CA
First time ordering food since they changed ownership. I ordered bbq pork fried rice; no veggies only rice, egg, onion and... pork. They said 10 mins on the phone and timing was perfect. I live just 2 doors from the restaurant on the Pine side. Thegentleman was arriving with my food to the front when I walked in. Very friendly and professional. The serving size is plentlyfor 2 adults if split. I order just for myself and there will be left overs for later. The bbq pork has rich flavour and isvery tastey. The rice has good texture and flavor. The egg and season are great. Perfect amount of onion. I look forward totrying other items on the menu and adding more images the next time I order take out from them. Thank you Gourmet Carouselteam! Read more
very disappointed have been going here for 25 years, but here has been a recent change in ownership. While the same basic... items are on the menu, many are missing and they changed their preparation of basic dishes. Read more
The portions are big and the food is delicious. Prices are great.
Something is seriously not right here. Either they?ve changed cooks or one of the cooks can?t cook, because the reviews don?t... add up. I ordered four dishes and they were all literally vile. I took one bite of each and threw it all away. I had bought somuch as I was hoping to have left overs for a few days. I remember coming here in the 90?s. I thought it hadn?t changed. I wasvery wrong.

Great and quick food with attentive service. Don't expect overly nice service, but they know what they're doing. The lunch menu... that pulls up on the Google map profile does not accurately reflect the prices. Expect to pay $1-4 more per item. Read more
Japanese style beef cubes and tofu was delicious. Generous portions and great flavor! Prices are super good, too.
I love good food. Everything has been good so far.
The food is delicious here. If you love true authentic Chinese cuisine; give this place a try. The ownership just changed and... now I finally have a favorite Chinese restaurant in the city. Fastest take out (ready within 12mins). I ordered the chickenfried rice and pot stickers for lunch today. The portion for a single order of Chicken Fried Rice and single order ofPotstickers is enough for 2 adults. I split it with my wife and we have fried rice leftovers for later tonight. They make theirown potstickers because the ingredients are full of flavour, the skin is the perfect thickness (not thick whatsoever) and theyput corn kernels inside with the other ingredients. Most Chinese restaurant in the city have not satisfied my experiencedpalette in decades. My wife has travelled to China for work projects and agrees that this place is truly authentic. Real Chinesefried rice should not have carrots and peas; it should only be rice, choice of meat, egg, green onion and seasoning. This placedoes a great job and I highly recommend it. They are friendly and professional when you go inside to pay for the take out. Iwill definitely be a regular and look forward to trying the other menu items on their new menu. Thank you Gourmet Carousel forthe tasty meal! Read more
