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.

Their chicken meat pie is so juicy, it’s our go to dumpling-ish place! It always amazes us that the pies aren’t oily. For a healthier option, we’ll get the tomato egg soup. The cucumber salad is a must for its flavor/crunch but also to offset the heaviness of the Meat pies.

Lovely food and cozy, quiet atmosphere on a Sunday night. We ordered fried pork dumplings, wonton soup, pork scallion pie, and some pork noodles. Savory, freshly made, piping hot! Pictured are the dumplings and the pie, the dumplings are 10pc but I forgot to take a photo until after I ate some because it was just too good.

This spot offers a great assortment of dumplings, meat pies, and a decent pan-fried bao. If you’re looking for a meat-forward place to grab lunch, this is a very solid choice. The food arrives relatively quickly given that the food is freshly cooked.
The staff are friendly and attentive. Orders came out together and piping hot, fast refills of water throughout, and they quickly replaced chopsticks when I dropped mine.
The restaurant is small, with only 4 or 5 tables, so expect a potential wait during peak hours, but it’s well worth it.
Parking is generally easy on the side streets near E Main Street.
Highly recommended: Lamb meat pies and the pork and seafood dumplings.

The hole in the wall you've been looking for. I never fancy dumplings / buns, but when I tried their fried buns, they won me over. Skin is even, thin, w/ the right consistency. Savory inside and out. Tried some of the soups that were ok. Recommend the buns/dumplings.
We came to try the food and had low expectations, but the food was delicious. We got minced sauce noodle and 2 dumplings dishes. All was very delicious. The minced sauce noodle was one of the best minced sauce noodles in SGV. Not too oily, but it has deep flavor. Dumpling... was superb ? ?. Highly recommended. Simple, not too expensive and delicious.
Delicious dumplings with tender crispy skin and juicy filling. We tried several kids and lamb pie was the best.

I crave the food from this place regularly. You just walk in, sit down, order by QR code, and then pay at the front. The cucumbers, egg pancake, mini fried dumplings, and beef noodle soup are our favorites but we’ve liked everything we’ve tried. Give it a try!
