Oakland has one of the oldest and biggest Chinatowns in America but it doesnt have a gate. LOL

After visiting china I can say, that I don't know which one has the BEST china town..(What on earth do you mean by "best")

I can assure you that China town in SF out of all of them makes you feel like you are in China for a little bit.

[Joe Bama!]

Chinatown in SF is the best hands down.

Man i remember taking that Muni bus the 32 or 35 or something and man I just wanted to KILL my self on that bus. I felt like I was in China for sure. The bus driver barely spoke a lick of broken English himself and had a heavy Hmong accent. Yea SF hands down.

The Chinatown in SF was just too much of a tourist trap. I have had much better luck with the restaurants in Oakland's Chinatown.

I prefer Monterrey Park in LA to any of them.

Along Grant Av definitely. The first thing that pops into my mind when I think of SF Chinatown is "5 T-Shirts for $20"

Me too.

Suburban 'chinatowns" have the best food imo. I had this amazing meal in Milpitas(near San Jose) last week that really beat anything I ever ate in Chinatown.
