Tasty Dumpling

This use to be my go to place for dumplings but the last visit left me less then impressed. Ordered one $14 shrimp fried rice and there were only seven cocktail sized shrimp, yes seven. When we asked management for more shrimp; seeing as this is $4 more then normal fried rice, management laughed it off and said that’s how it’s made. In addition to their poor attitude to customers, the customers dining table closest to the front door was being used for meal preparation and or to wrap dumplings.

Amazing casual eatery with decent Xiao Long baos (thicker skin type) which are juicy, fresh chili noodles that tastes handmade, and beef rolls that are super light and refreshing. The beef rolls are on the smaller side and not as worth it but I like that they are healthy and not too oily. The cold noodles are super worth especially on a hot day. Vibe is modern and clean and order in front.

The building is well decorated and very clean while the service was great. I ordered the braised beef brisket noodle soup and the beef roll. Both were not the best that I've had but were still good.

Noodle soup:
Spice level on the soup was reasonable—hot enough for a kick but not unbearable for someone who has a low spice tolerance. Brisket was tender and flavorful, and the noodles were nice and chewy.

Beef roll:
On the smaller end than what I've had elsewhere but still filling.

I came here for lunch on a Wednesday afternoon. It was a little bit cold and windy so I decided to get the braised brisket beef noodle soup. It was not oily like some other reviewers have said in the past The broth was decent. There was a ton of noodles more than I can eat. Lots of baby bok choy which I love and there was plenty of meat. The only critique I could give would be to let the brisket braise longer to get more tender. It was not full of fat and inedible parts like other places. I could not finish the whole thing. Two people could easily be fed by this one dish. I also got the coconut dessert. It's like a coconut jello almost It was super creamy and super good. I love coconut. I will come back just for this coconut dessert. Overall, this was a great experience. My food came out fast. The prices were reasonable. The bathrooms were super clean. Inside was nice and clean. Five stars

Was pleasantly surprised how everything was fresh, authentic and tasty here. Must get are the XLBs, pan fried juicy pork dumplings and the Xi’an spicy cold noodles. You order at the counter and they give you a number then they’ll bring the food to you.
