Usually i come this place for Dumpling. It price was $10.80 for 10 Dumplings but now is $14.8. It’s fine with price if dish quality is same as before. But taste really change a lot…… The dumpling is oily and not juicy. Taste is really weak. Hope they get back to normal taste.

I overdid it by ordering three serves of dumplings BUT I still ate everything! The beauty of a place this busy is the freshness of the dishes. Served piping hot and packed full of delicious ingredients, you won’t be disappointed. It’s busy at lunch but the team does whatever they can to seat you promptly

If you are the Bao person that I recommend Original XiaoLongBao and pen fried bao. Every time I return here for the bao and spring onion oil chicken.
But as for the hot and sour soup, that’s the worst I ever had. Never try it.

Food is delicious for a good price.
We tried the pork xiao long bao, fried rice and the dried pork noodles. Everything was amazing.
The establishment is quite noisy and stressful. You just go there to eat, not the best to keep a conversation or for a date. But you also appreciate this fact when you are lining up and they are able to take you in few minutes.

I always go to this branch for dumplings and I always leave satisfied.
The xiao long bao were absolutely delicious. The soup was so flavorful. The xiao long bao were a complete delight to eat in this chilly weather.
The pan-fried bao were delicious, too. The pork filling was juicy and shrimp plump. I recommend eating it with the chili sauce.
I recommend getting some hot tea to accompany with the meal.

This place is so good that there is always a queue when we arrive. Awesome vegan options for the dumplings and really quick service! ☺️

Couldn’t believe how cheap this place was given the 10% weekend surcharge + amazing quality. My fave was the chilli with peanut butter dumplings, the sauce was so nutty and addictive.. Cooked so well! The xiao long bao was also one of the best I’ve had - so meaty with perfect soup portion.

Ordered xiaolongbao, fried buns and wonton in chili oil.
Wonton in chili oil: plain, doesn’t taste like anything, not outstanding
Xiaolongbao: thin skin, heaps of juice and tastes really good
Fried buns: tastes super good, the crunchiness of the bottom of the buns are amazing.
The reason why I gave 1 star was because of the hygienity. Unused spoons had dark spots and were oily, I asked for boiling water to clean them cuz I didn’t believe asking for new spoons would be a good idea.
Buns were fried in unfiltered oil, I tried to remove the residual burns at the bottom. The water bottles looked dirty. I can’t imagine how black the oil could truly be and how dirty the kitchen looked.
At first I tried to find ways to make it like coming here when it’s just open next time (me and my partner went here at dinner time) then utensils and oil could be cleaner and new. But tbh, the food was good but I feel uncomfortable thinking of coming back to give them another try. Bad hygienity is just a no no
