Food is bland and generic. Service is awful. Ordering thru a QR code is required, yet so is a gratuity. The most impressive part being how terrible the (not free) white rice was.

This place is a true gem of food and service. Nestled in the Montrose area, away from the hustle and bustle, it offers ample parking and a variety of dining options. Every time I visit, I’m consistently impressed by the quality of the food and the impeccable service. It’s an ideal spot for a private dinner or lunch, away from the formalities. Don’t miss out on Helen, the soul of this place. Her food recommendations are spot-on, and her hospitality is simply impeccable.
We started with chicken dumplings and green onion pan cakes as appetizers. For the main course, we had peppercorn chicken, chicken lo mein, and orange chicken. Each dish was delicious and came in a reasonable portion. However, the orange chicken truly stood out. It had real thin orange slices, which I absolutely loved.

Xiaolong Dumpling opened in 2024, is a small restaurant. It has limited seating outdoor too.
Food orders were made via Chowbus. Scan the QR code on your table, submit your order, and your food will be served to you.
My partner and I had the Hong Kong BBQ bao, shrimp dumplings, crystal dumplings, salt & pepper fish, soup dumplings, and signature fried rice.
The BBQ bao, which I suspect was from a frozen packet (I asked the lady, but didn’t get a straight answer from her), had a great filling with fluffy dough. The shrimp dumplings were ok, but seemed like from the frozen packet too. The crystal dumplings should have crispy bottoms, but they weren’t, which was a letdown. The salt & pepper fish could use more pepper. The signature fried rice didn’t have good flavor, and the dish could be drier to be called fried rice. The soup dumplings were good. I loved the flavorful soup inside.
I loved their packaged drinks. They were cute and easy to transport around.
Service was excellent though. I chatted with the owner, Helen and she was very friendly.
There is limited parking outside the restaurant, but there is additional parking available across the street at the paint store.

The food was good. The only issue we had was service. It was not sure clear that we placed the orders online. So the whole experience took too long because we had a difficult time finding someone to speak with.

Food was mid. Dumplings came out cold and it smelled like old washed rag. Hi trendy is better.
There was a short wait when we arrived, but the food was fantastic! Everything we ordered was absolutely delicious. I’ll definitely come back.

Delicious food and excellent service! Our favorites were the green onion pancakes, the crystal dumplings, and the biangbiang noodles. The lemonade is sweet- like koolaid level sugar sweet- and served in bags. We will be back again

My boyfriend and I had such a wonderful experience here!
The orange chicken was a standout — crispy on the outside, tender on the inside, and coated in the perfect balance of sweet and tangy sauce. Not overly heavy or greasy at all. And the biang biang beef noodles were incredible — chewy, hand-pulled noodles with flavorful beef and just the right amount of spice.
On top of the amazing food, the service was impeccable. Helen, our server, was especially wonderful. She’s very down to earth, attentive, and genuinely helpful. She made great recommendations. She truly made the whole dining experience even better.
Highly recommend this place if you’re craving delicious Chinese food with outstanding service. We’ll definitely be coming back!
