Recently acquired by LVMH, the luxury group that owns Louis Vuitton, Dom Perignon, Dior and other well known brands, Crystal Jade Jiang Nan opened up as one of the biggest restaurants in the city of San Francisco. Designed by prestigious Ken Fulk, this huge space turned into Asian castle with a modern twist and amazing views of the Bay.

Crystal Jade’s Menu reads like ahigh end Chinese restaurant with lots of options. The food is authentic with great attention to ingredients, freshness, taste and presentation. Prices are very high, but best in town Pecking duck and Apple Wood Roasted Suckling Pig.
