Came here for the infamous XLB soup dumplings. They did not disappoint. They even have a Truffle one, you gotta try that, it's extraordinary. It was happy hour so we got the pork fried rice too, why not? The pork fried rice was bursting with flavor and exceeded my expectations.Staff was super friendly, accommodating. I also loved the interior, felt really homey. Don't miss this spot if you're looking for some soup dumplings!!
We had this delivered so I am only able to review the food. We ordered the edamame, pork soup dumpling, seaweed salad, sticky rice, and crystal crab dumplings. My favorite by far was the seaweed salad and pork soup dumplings, which I could have ordered more of and made a complete meal of and been perfectly happy! The sticky rice and crystal crab dumplings were tasty, but I felt their presentation exceeded flavor. Overall, delicious, fresh tasting food I would gladly order again.
This was my first time ever having Bao and I’mSO glad we came here. The food was delicious, fresh, and filling. The service & price was outstanding for how much tasty food you got. The staff is cheery and friendly, it was a great experience overall.
Excellent food all round, and the dumplings are divine!! An absolute "must have" are the "Signature Magnificent Seven" baos - visual and tasty delights!
Pros:+ The food is delicious ?+ One nice waiter with professional chill vibes+ You can watch your food made in front of you+ Free and tasty jasmine tea+Very cute squishy Bao decoration ☺️Cons:- TV. I don't understand why it is there. When I was trying to eat my eyes were hurting from that blinking all the time.- Very noisy. I suppose that there was one new guy (short dark hair), that may be a partial excuse. While we were there (1 hour) at least 5 loud items were dropped.- Quite dirty. That guy dropped a stack of small dishes for soy sauce and then just casually put it back to the clean stacks... There also was dirt in the WC area, unflashed poo and other stuff, but you can't blame that on stuff. There was a family with 2 or 3 kids, so probably kids are to blame.- Place seems big enough, but when I sat by the table I had not enough space for my elbows to eat comfortably. There is too much stuff on the table not to worry about throwing it down by accident.
Very delicious bao's, would recommend the Magnificent 7 (different flavours you can choose from up to 7) the chicken, spicy and classic were all very good and the Sticky rice and Siu mai was delicious as all items were fresh from the kitchen. Super good, and light food!Edit: May 17: Service was super friendly but was different than our first experience here, but after a slight hiccup during service, it was addressed and the items were comped. Would come here again thanks to the management for having us and look forward to eating here again! Still would recommend this place here too!
Delicious, carrying stuff, pleasant atmosphere.Signature soup dumplings beyond expectations! In one plate you have so many tastes and feelings ✌?Definitely will be back with friends!
We wanted to try soup Bao for a long time. The whole experience was wonderful. Dinner was awesome!!
Just an absolute delight! The restaurant is cozy with a fun atmosphere, the staff were so friendly and helpful, the owner(?) was awesome to chat with and the dumplings were incredible. Pick the signature dumplings and you will not be disappointed. 10/10 would love to visit again
The owner was super helpful and friendly. The happy hour menu was a great value and had tons of selection. I dined with a pescetarian and a vegetarian and there were lots of options for both! The open concept kitchen is super cool - you get to watch the bao being made!
