Xiang Yuen Xiao Long Bao

The fried pork bun and the Xiao Long Bao saved the the day. And prob will only return for those two items. Dim sum menu is very limited. We tried other non-dim sum items but we're not impressed. We were seated quickly but had to wait forever to get the menu and you can imagine how long it takes to get our orders in let alone our food coming out. It wasn't busy. The services is just not there. If the item we order takes longer to cook, feel free to let us know; however, I see table that came after us and clearing out before us and we do order some similar plate. 1st time here but willing to give it another shot and will adjust rating and recommendations.

Delicious, no frills, dim sum and other Chinese dishes. Everything I’ve had here has been quite tasty, the service is friendly and fast. If they are busy it might not be as friendly but the food is always made to order and fresh. The crab XLBs are to die for and the dry fried green beans are also a favorite.

Dropped by here over the weekend. Been coming here for years, long before the pandemic. Been to other places that sell dumplings too. Some of those places sell premium dumplings too. The dumplings at this place are good. On par with the expensive places around the bay, even in LA. The service is okay. The atmosphere is casual. Definitely my go to pot for dumplings.

Went for lunch with my partner and we both enjoyed it. The place has potential. It looks very spacious but they opted to keep people in one segment of the building. The food itself was great and there was a decent amount of customers. The place had atleast 3 or 4 other parties there at a time and everyone was mindful of others. The food was really delicious, like literally everything we tried. We will definitely go back. The only thing I wish they could add is beer.

They have great XLBs

I ordered the braised eggplant with fish garlic sauce, and the pork noodle dish. While each dish was cooked with precision, the flavors failed to leave a lasting impression. Despite their culinary craftsmanship, the flavors lacked the depth and vibrancy I had hoped for, leaving me searching for ways to enhance the taste so I added soy sauce and chili sauce. The restaurant serves as a casual outing, However, for those in pursuit of culinary enchantment and gastronomic delight, it may be worth exploring other dishes for a more captivating experience. There were fresh dumplings being made, so if I come back, I will definitely order some of those. The restaurant was pretty, quiet, and a tip I would give to the owner is to play some music in the background.
