I have 5 kids and I’m going to San Francisco is there a parking garage or a pay lot close to china town? I know there is near pier 39 but I need to know where to park near China town. Thank you again everyone!

Yes there is!! Parking on the street is very dificult and a bit stressful. Drive in to China town and they give you a flat rate depending on the garage.

All the restaurants in China town that we ate it had dim sum. I can't recommend a specific restaurant because we tried so many & all were great. We just walked into each one with no reservations. There were a high volume of police everywhere we looked and we did not feel "unsafe" anywhere we went. Of course this could change with the time of day/which day you are there. Good luck
