I had a good impression of this restaurant's xiaolongbao before, but today I came alone and insisted that I order $30 before I could swipe my card. After ordering xiaolongbao with scallion oil noodles for $27, the store was unwilling to force me to add eggs or change vegetables! What a stinking virtue!

ABSOLUTE HORRIBLE place. Disrespectful attitude and service. Do not ever come to this place as they do not welcome you and are rude. I would give zero stars if I could. Lightning!!! Terrible attitude and inexplicable refusal of service. If you want to feel guilty, come here. Only 5 tables, dirty and very rude and impolite shop.

Horrible place with horrible attitude. They do not need your business as they do not welcome it. This is not where you want to go if you wish to have a pleasant experience. When he closed the table, he had never seen such poor quality, lightning protection.

This place isn't the bestest dumpling house I have eaten, but I heard a lot of good reviews, so I thought to come here to take a visit.Parking can get hard because there are a lot of food and other places shared in the plaza, so do come with some time to spare for parking. There is additional parking underground as well though! (free parking!)The place is located on the first floor, easy to spot.I had quite a few of their dishes (remember these are personal preferences as my taste my obviously differ) including regular juicy pork dumplings (5/5), salty egg dumplings (0/5) -i like salty eggs and its related flavor snacks, but this is just not it, spicy wonton (5/5), beef noodle soup (4/5), their dry noodle with sauce (4/5) - I do love that it came with a side of soup that you can either dip the noodles in or drink it, beef pot stickers (4/5).I do like their spicy line of food, they make it spicy but not too spicy. Enough kick for the road!Overall I had a great experience, however it wasn't the best food in my opinion as I had better.The place does not have AC, the day I went was about 90 degrees, and only the door was open, I wished they had AC turned on or a fan, i was sweating while eating the hots.The owner of the place is Shanghainese, and you can catch him speak with the customers in Shanghainese which is cute, and makes me wish i also speak it so i can have casual conversation about food and this place with him. They do speak Mandarin, so that helps since I can communicate with them. But for regular customers since the servers and owner don't really speak English it makes it harder.I would totally come back here again though!

Been here for years, and food always come through. Good food makes up for the irregular hours and extended summer and winter breaks throughout the years.

As a Shanghainese I haven’t had anything that tastes so much like home until today. Very authentic taste and food. 10/10 for this place

The noodles here is AWESOME.So so CHEWY!!! It’s literally the best noodles I’ve had. Super flavorful dish as well.The wonton is also yum yum and xiao long bao is great too.Seriously the best place for our homemade Shanghai dishes!

Light on atmosphere but the dumplings are to die for.

Best authentic xiaolongbao anywhere! If you have been to the popular places in Shanghai, Vancouver and LA, you would definitely love this place. The place is small, esp only half the table is available due to covid, but its worth the wait. Their other dishes are amazing as well

I love the food at this place but they've been closing so early that I have not been able to eat at this place again since the pandemic. Sad~
