And the best part, it’s about half the price. You’re getting higher quality without the premium markup.
Service was friendly, food came out hot and fresh, and the atmosphere felt authentic and welcoming. If you’re debating between here and Din Tai Fung, come here. You won’t regret it.
Service: 5/5 – we did visit the location just before 5 so it was empty with no wait. Service was very quick still and they were at our table refilling the tea the moment we ran out.
Ambiance: 5/5 – since it was before dinner rush, the restaurant was quiet but you can hear the conversation from the kitchen.
Value for price: 5/5 – it’ is a bit more expensive than we remember but understandable considering the price increase in all the restaurants in the area.
The Shanghai spicy noodle soup was disappointing: the broth had almost no flavor and potatoes were used instead of bamboo shoots. The soy sauce duck was also underwhelming.
Worth coming for the dumplings, but I’d skip the noodles and duck.
I placed my name in the waiting list and waited 10 minutes until my name was called. You can watch the employees hand rolling the soup dumplings while you wait.
I ordered the following items:
1) Shanghai Scallion Pancake – $4.95
2) Traditional Shanghai Xiao Long Bai – $11.95
3) Angus Beef Xiao Long Bao – $11.95
The scallion pancake had a perfect crisp and was not too oily. It was a nice texture change from the soft soup dumplings.
I preferred the Traditional over the Angus Beef Xiao Long Bao. The Traditional was done great minus the slightly thicker skin on the dumplings. The beef had great flavor but was a slightly chewier bite.
I feel this restaurant is worth the trip to enjoy the soup dumplings!
When we were seated we ordered just about half the entire menu. We got traditional soup dumplings, fish dumplings, pan fried dumplings, two different fried rice, scallion pancakes, chicken chow mein, and wok choy. Every. Single. Thing. Was. Extraordinary. which is even crazier to think about because Shanghainese is typically not our go to type anyways. The soup dumplings in particular are among, if not, the best we’ve ever had. The chow mein was cooked perfectly with moist pieces of chicken throughout. The scallion pancakes were even fantastic for as simple of a dish as it can be. All this and you even get free hot tea to help wash some of it down. It was astonishing just how good every dish could be.
Although it’s off the strip, as Chinese food goes, this is a must stop by. The food is incredible. It isn’t going to wow you like other restaurants on the strip with a nice presentation or a breathtaking setting, but we guarantee you on taste alone this will be one of the best Chinese food places you’ve ever been to (and we’re from the Bay and NYC). If you like Chinese food, or even just food for that matter, then do yourself a favor and stop by here immediately.
My favorite was the pan fried soup dumplings. The Xiao Long Bao was also very good. Take them seriously when they tell you to be careful because the food is hot! My only knock is they don’t bring out finely slivered ginger to accompany the dumplings.
Prices are reasonable and the service was excellent.
The dumplings were a new take on a traditional flavor and we found them to be ok.
Beside bringing our food the staff was otherwise inattentive and I had to flag down someone to ask for napkins and water. We never did get our water.
My wife and I like to order a bunch of food so we asked if we could sit at a table.
The host said yes, then still sat us at the bar.
It was neat to see the ladies making the dumplings but I would have preferred a table like was ask for so we weren’t crowded at the bar.
Not to mention every single person that came in and out was basically touching us because the walkway between the bar and the wall was very narrow.
The price point was very high compared to some of the better dim sum/ Asian restaurants we have tried. Add in the lack of service and it definitely didn’t add up.
Overall we left feeling somewhat disappointed and within about a half hour my wife and I both had upset stomach’s.
All in all, I doubt we will be back again.
The xlb skin is a little thick and rough for my taste. And the spicy chili wonton didn’t have much flavor. Everything was a tad on the salty side.
Service, however, was the best part! Too bad I come for the food. Would not return.
