Vegetarian Potstickers

Finding places that have veggie pot stickers - either Chinese or Gyoza - is always a challenge. Firecracker used to have a good version with lots of ginger. A few nights ago I hit up Chef Jia's for some great, really greasy versions stuffed with green and other mystery ingredients.

What are some other SF-local places that carry vegetarian potstickers?

    Minako in the Mission offers veggie gyoza, and Karma out in the Inner Richmond has veggie momos. Golden Era in the Tenderloin and Shangri-la out in the Sunset also have veggie potstickers.

      Kiji on Guerrero near 22nd Street has excellent vegie gyoza. They have mushroom and bean thread noodles.

        I really like the "vegetarian dumplings" at Yank Sing -- more of a har gow type (in terms of size, shape, translucent wrapper, steamed only). They have an earthy filling of shiitake-type mushrooms, diced water chestnut, fermented vegetable, etc.

          I personally love the veggie potstickers at Ton Kiang on Geary...

            Tommy's Wok in Sausalito - not sure if that is local enough

              I love the veg potstickers at Golden Lotus in downtown Oakland. They are super.

                Hmm, they certainly won't deliver to me in SF. But I'll keep them in mind, thanks!
