Lily Kai

Looking out at San Francisco's skyline, Lily Kai's dining room is filled with the scents of crisping meats and rich sauces coming to fruition in woks. Lightly battered prawns sizzle in the fryer before luxuriating in honey-walnut sauce, and chicken takes on a zesty flavor profile with the help of ginger, spicy garlic, fresh mango, and onions. Lunch specials allow entrees—such as citrus duck or cashew chicken—to join hands with steamed or fried rice, soup, and appetizers, coming together to peacefully slay midday hunger.
