I hadn't even planned to go to this place, but all I wanted was decent Chinese cuisine on a Thursday night. I couldn't believe how upscale the ambience was and how hot the people were! My favorites: their Crab Rangoon, their Yeo's Roasted Chicken, and the Tangerine Beef.

Sino is like the "koi" of the bay area. It is the restaurant to be seen around especially on a Thursday night. The servers are hot, the lounge area is packed and the food is delicious.

The food here is amazing. Don't miss out on the lollipop chicken or the honey walnut prawns. It's a little pricy but the atmosphere and taste of food make it worth it. The service is not that great but once you are done eating, the drinking will make you forget about it. The bar can get really poppin after hours. All the servers, waitresses, and bartenders here are very good looking also.

So I'm a little bias when it comes to this place because I have great relationships with the bartendars. I guess this is my Cheers 'where everybody knows (my) name'.. LOL! Can you tell I hang out here often? Sunday fundays chillin on the patio @ Sino, especially during the summer... OVA! =) People watching and sipping on your cocktail is the BEST!

I am not crazy about the food or drinks here but Sino is a good spot to hang out at on Santana Row.

NIGHTLIFE - - - - - - - - - - -SINO is the 'SLIDE SF Thursdays' Of The South Bay. Thursday nights there are full of good-looking trendy people. All the 'Scene Queen' And 'Scene Kings' (like me lol) are here on thursday nights....It reminds me of when I lived in Santa Barbara (thats a really good thing). I enjoy the music because they play all hip-hop classics, and the 'crowd' is not affected by the music. I think waaaayyy too many promoters/event coordinators make the mistake of directly correlating music with 'crowd'. There are so many factors other than music that will effect the 'turnout' or the people that frequent a particular party or venue. Located in Santana Row, everyone is always dressed nice and the vibe is safe and cheery lol. There are some damn hot girls that go there, and I dont see them anywhere in the south bay, except SINO on thursdays ? ? ? -------------FOOD - - - - - - - ORDER THE FRIED RICE! I have dreams about the fried rice, its the best ive had. I really like the rib-eye steak too, sorry ladies I didnt browse the menu to see if there are any 'girly food' that would tickle your fancy.

Yumm...I ate there for the first time a couple of weeks ago and although it was crazy busy and we missed our reservations by a half an hour we were still able to get a table. Food was great. Service was great... I can't wait to go again!

I love Sino... the food is always good...whether you want dim sum at lunch time... dinner in the evening or just a little late night appetizer after 10pm... they usually serve until 11:30pm or so throughout the week. The drinks are great... though the bartenders are a little slow. But the crowd is typical Santana Row "business" thoughout the week, but turns a little younger and hip Thursday thru Saturday. Really though, I have never hit an off night. It is a great starter place, last call is early there
