 | katk (0) 10/09/2001 | Really, I'd give it a 3.5 The waitstaff was really nice and it's worth checking out if you've never been, but the food was average. We had the Firecracker chicken (pretty good), Ho Fun noodles (not what we were expecting- they weren't the wide noodles), Sea bass (this wasn't good at all- for good sea bass, try Watergate which isn't a Chinese restaurant butis in the Mission), and Walnut prawns (great). Firecracker's dishes tend to be fancier than your typical Chinese restaurant. If you want good basic Chinese food, there are better deals in the city, like Eliza's (in Portero or Pac Heights).
