Very kind and friendly staff! Everything was freshly made to order, juicy, and very flavorful. This was also very affordable. The scallion oil noodles, and beef/cilantro dumplings were our standouts but we loves everything we ordered.
We would love to revisit someday when we travel back to this area!

Great hole in the wall where everything is made to order. Mini fried dumplings and mini wonton soup are great. Only 6 small tables. Good for breakfast

My go to place for handmade Chinese pies. Love the spicy tofu salad, cucumber salad, fries pork bao, and pork pies! Very sweet little restaurant where you can see the Asian aunties making the food from scratch. Easy street parking in the area.

Pork & Leek fried dumplings were very delicious. Maybe the best in Alhambra. 🫠?? Also love the cold noodles for a hot summer day. Simple and refreshing. Cucumber Salad is super good!

All the dumplings taste distinctly different, which is rare. The Lamb pie is amazing.

My wife and I checked out Min Min House in Alhambra, a real hole-in-the-wall spot with a no-frills vibe. There’s basically no service—you scan a QR code to order, and they bring the food when it’s ready. The dumplings were solid, definitely a highlight. The cucumber salad was fantastic, super fresh and authentic. Hot and sour soup, though? Not my thing—couldn’t get used to the flavor. The beef pie stole the show with its thin, crispy skin and juicy filling. Scallion pancake was just okay, nothing special. The xiao long bao was tasty with soft, flavorful skins. Overall, they’ve got some great dumplings worth trying. Parking’s either on the street or in the back lot.
So good and affordable, made me love chinese food more them before. I wish I came here sooner since its 5 minutes away from me. Everthing is handmade and and i defintely recommend this place to anyone whos interested. the steamed buns bread was soft and the inside was very juicy.

I'm super excited to share my discovery of Min Min Pie House in Alhambra, California! This cozy gem is easily missed, but trust me, it's worth a try if you love Chinese handmade pie dishes.
Walking in, I didn't see anyone to greet me, but the open seating and QR code ordering system made it easy to get started. Scan the code, choose from English or Chinese menus - so convenient! A friendly middle-aged lady arrived shortly, offered water, and let us know we could order through our phones.
We ordered: sweet & sour soup, fried stinky tofu, lamb scallion pie, pork cabbage baozi, fried leek dumplings. All orders take a bit longer since everything's made from scratch. Dishes are perfectly seasoned; just add soy sauce or chill sauce to taste. And most of all, the place is owned by locals, with hands-on kitchen staff.
When paying, the owner asked about my experience and shared their passion for handmade dishes. Only frozen dumplings are available for home purchase due to limited staff.
Min Min Pie House is a hidden gem! Don't miss it if you're a fan of authentic Chinese cuisine. Give it a try and enjoy!

Great dumplings! Everything is made to order. Super fresh food. Only downside is that the place is tiny. Totally worth it though if you are craving tasty meat pies and dumplings.
