The SceneThe party never stops at this only-in-San Francisco supper club, where the "ladies" (gender illusionists) flirt while they deliver big, colorful cocktails, then appear on the central runway in hourly lip-synch revues. It's good, clean but scandalous fun for the birthday-party crowd. The decor is Asian modern, with bamboo accents and back-lit paper screens that constantly change color.The FoodThe food comes second to the outrageous entertainment, and the menu is somewhat overpriced. Choose carefully (remember: The steep prices include the "ladies") to get a meal without disappointments. To start, go for the remarkably moist chicken satay with herb-y peanut sauce and bypass the porcupines (deep-fried shrimp and scallop rolls that have mealy texture and little taste). Pretty squares of tuna sashimi have a peppery crust, but steamed mussels are oversalted. Honey-tamarind glazed pork ribs are dry, but seared halibut is perfect in a sweet soy reduction.

Jinky's Review

By jinkyjanky on 12/28/1999

On November 17,99 @ 7:00 PM I had reservations for my birthday and had ask for a table for two (2). I called the day of the reservations and confirmed. When we arrived they tried to seat us @ the bar ( which has high, tall bar stools). I am usually in a wheelchair and have several medical problems that prohibit me from sitting in a seat without any back support. That was the reason I double checked the reservations ahead of time. They would not change us to a table, even though there were plenty of tables for two. If you are in a wheelchair or have a disability, my experience is that they are not willing to make any corrections, changes or compromises what so ever ( don't be fooled by the handicap sticker located @ the front entrance of the restaurant). This restuarant is not accessable to those in wheelchairs. Since I am unable to sit @ the stools, we had to leave. We made our reservations weeks ago. I don't think AsiaSF is aware or care of the Americans with Disabilities Act of 1990.

The food is as fabulous as the wait staff. Customers will want to keep ordering the tasty dishes as they watch their waitress perform on the bar.
