About XLB Kitchen

XLB Kitchen is a popular restaurant in the bay area, known for its consistently tasty dishes and variety of menu options. The owner is often present, creating a warm and inviting atmosphere. Prices are reasonable, and the staff are familiar and friendly. The restaurant is especially famous for its XLB, considered some of the best around, and also offers Chilli Oil Wontons, Mapo Tofu, and other flavorful dishes. The homely setting makes it a great choice for out-of-town guests seeking a unique Shanghainese culinary experience. Regular customers appreciate the fresh ingredients and ability to accommodate dietary restrictions, with many dishes available meat-free. The patio seating adds a relaxing touch to the dining experience, and the restaurant remains a top spot for authentic and delicious Chinese food. The mapo tofu was our favorite, the perfect amount of spice. The dumplings are homemade and each one is a perfect bite with perfect seasoning. The bamboo sticky rice is also a favorite.

Wonderfully authentic home cooking! Super friendly staff and we always come back for a warm meal whenever we are in town. Still trying to convince them to move to Washington state…!
Cozy small Chinese restaurant.
Food is delicious and authentic. Love the dish Griddle Chicken wings!
They have small tables only.
We looooove the food! Especially the chicken griddled wings. Kids love the fried rice and bao. Staff is always so attentive.

We picked up a healthy and super delicious snack before heading over to the fireworks show.
