I happened to come across this restaurant after finding that the boba shop across the parking lot was missing popcorn chicken, and was a pleasant surprise. After missing out on breakfast and having a headache growing on me it was a pleasure to eat here.The dishes are one item orders and then you add on to that the main source of stuffing such as rice or noodles.We had three people eat out their fill and the bill was a little under $70.One guy got two different types of dumplings. Another person got shrimp fried rice and Kung pow chicken. I got myself the diced chicken with black pepper sauce and plain noodles
I visited this restaurant many times in the past, but stopped going since the “Juicy Dumpling with Loofah Shrimp” tasted bitter for 4 times in a row in different seasons. Do you know if loofah tastes bitter, it is poisonous and could cause serious health problems, even death? The other dishes were fine, but this dish was my favorite, until it was always bitter.
We've been here at least 10 times and we keep coming back because it's simply too good! We now come every two weeks ☺️Their braised pork rice is the best ive had in the bay area!!! I also love their loofah shrimp xlb, it's truly amazing. My husband loves beef noodle soup so much, it's a must eat for him. The beef roll was great too!
We ordered XLB with squash & shrimp and they are less meaty comparing to the regular XLB. Kind of feels fresh. Beef noodle is just OK and it is a bit disappointing that spiciness can only come from standard chili sauce. Green onion pancake is tasty. In general, we might come again if we are in the neighborhood.
Overall, this is a great place for xlb and other related steamed dumplings.On serviceThey seem a little understaffed, but tried to be as helpful as they can.On the foodPortions are plentiful and dumplings, soups, and main entrees were quickly served. The food was well seasoned and a great value overall.Would recommend for anyone wanting good dumplings at reasonable prices
The food still really good, some food change less qty but same price
Only 6 dollars for an order of SLB is a very good deal
Possibly the slowest kitchen in this area. Long wait to get a table and long wait for food.I placed two orders for dine-in and it took more than 45 mins to serve. They forgot my order as well and I have to remind them.Food is okay, hence the two stars.
One of the best soup dumpings in bay area! Both pork dumpling and shrimp dumpling are good.The only downside is serivce is a little slow and seats are too crowded inside.
All the food was so delicious! Also, despite them being super busy, we recieved great service and attention! We ordered the seafood pan fried noodles, green onion pancakes, and 2 orders of the pork soup dumplings! Everything was well made and so delicious!
