The buns were utter garbage. Stale, bland, squishy, lukewarm, and any crunch the charred side had was gone well before they were served. It's like they had been just sitting around somewhere waiting to be ordered. I hope Asians that are visiting don't think this is what Americans consider good, or even acceptable. The cucumber salad was good though!

Had hand pulled noodles Zia Jiang Mian which has minced pork and black bean sauce. Basically fast food or food court style service. The texture of the noodle was good. Small amount for around $20 (including tax). Did not see anyone hand pulling the noodles at the spot. Maybe they were premade. Overall okay.

Dumplings and soups with hand pulled noodles. The flavor is good but the consistency needs a little work. Some were tender but others chewy.

Dining at Ah Chun Shandong Dumplings offered a unique culinary journey into the heart of Shandong cuisine, particularly through their specialty: dumplings. With an anticipation for authenticity and flavor, my experience was met with mixed feelings, leading to a 3 out of 5-star rating, heavily influenced by the pricing structure encountered during my visit.
The highlight of my meal was the pork dumplings. These dumplings were a delight, skillfully prepared with a noticeable attention to detail, embodying the rich flavors and textures that one would expect from a restaurant dedicated to Shandong cuisine. The delicate wrappers, perfectly steamed to a tender finish, encased a generous filling of succulent pork, each bite offering a harmonious blend of taste and texture.
However, the dining experience took a turn when considering the value proposition. At nearly $20 for a serving of three dumplings, the price point felt steep, overshadowing the culinary excellence of the dish itself. While I understand and appreciate the quality of ingredients and the craftsmanship involved in creating these dumplings, the cost did prompt a moment of pause, leading to a reflection on the overall dining experience in terms of value.
Had the pricing been more in line with expectations, I would have been inclined to give Ah Chun Shandong Dumplings a 4 out of 5 stars. The ambiance of the restaurant and the quality of the food certainly merit recognition. Yet, the price for the quantity provided introduced a significant deterrent to the overall satisfaction.
In summary, Ah Chun Shandong Dumplings stands out for its culinary offerings, particularly its pork dumplings, which were a testament to the art of dumpling making. However, the pricing strategy currently in place detracts from the dining experience, leaving a lingering question of value that ultimately impacts the overall rating. For enthusiasts of Shandong cuisine willing to overlook the premium pricing, Ah Chun Shandong Dumplings remains a notable destination. Yet, for those seeking both quality and value, the restaurant's pricing may prompt consideration.

Worst sheng jian bao ever. Soggy, not fresh, no juice inside. Avoid.

Good bao buns but fairly expensive for the food, ambiance and service.
I don’t mind paying more for good food, but this place feels that it doesn’t have a good enough experience for the price.
Away from the price the bao buns were not awesome, good but not great.
Still good but the grand opening thin wrap vegetarian dumplings are gone. My guess is that the opening Ah Shun ‘A’ team got homesick and is back in the motherland.

Avoid if you are looking for decent dumplings at a fair price. Paid $10 for 3 small dumplings that weren't even flavorful.
