Incredible dumplings for the value! These dumplings take home made and are more affordable and easier to get a seated table than DTF (Din Tai Fung). I recommend you order the XLB, soup pot sticker, spicy dumpling appetizer, and pork buns! We also ordered the...Read More

I love trying new dim sum places and this place caught my eye. It's off to the side in a small unassuming lot with limited parking. We had to try their XLB (soup dumplings), which had a nice chewy exterior, savory soup broth and tasty...Read More

Always dine in there. The dim sum is so authentic and, very important to me, handmade. (I personally dislike machine-made dumplings from supermarkets because they are too soft instead of chewy.) The ratio of vegetables versus meat in each dumpling is very reasonable and I’d...Read More

This restaurant is a decent dumpling place, truly living up to its name as a Dumpling restaurant. Their noodles and seasoning aren't overly oily, spicy, or overwhelmingly flavored. However, Chinese dishes might still be a bit greasy, but it's much more restrained here compared to...Read More
