Food was not bad, but portions are small for the price. And I may have some PTSD with the number of places with “xiaolong” in their name that don’t have any Xiaolong bao or are unavailable at the moment.

In town for the weekend from La. Could not of found a better spot for an early dinner. The service was perfect, extremely friendly and welcoming, and the found was amazing. We had the chili wonton dumplings, soup dumplings, steamed bao, and teriyaki beef. The waitress also brought us hot and sour soup. We ate way more than we planned with zero regrets. We will 100% stop in again on our next trip.

Everything was delicious here! It was our first time and we got to meet the famous and very sweet Helen. We ordered xiaolong bao, bbq buns, salt & pepper fish, Mongolian beef and green onion pancake. Portions are great.

Great restaurant! Staff is so friendly and fast, and the food was amazing. Took my son here for his first experience with soup dumplings and it was perfect! He hasn’t stopped talking about them! We will be back.

Nice little family owned restaurant that converted an old neighborhood convenience store in a intimate Chinese restaurant. Great food and super nice service.

Loved the mountain city hot pot and the fish swimming in pickles! Great flavor and huge serving to share with others.

Thank you Helen for your incredible hospitality.

Everything was absolutely delicious, fantastic service, good size portions. For 2 people we had: Biang Biang noodles, Crystal dumplings, chili oil wontons, potstickers, Szechuan Spicy chicken, and iced milk tea. We had lots of leftovers to take home for later.

We will definitely be coming back for the delicious food and friendly service! 10/10

This wasn’t just a food of yummy eats but also a great experience from Ms. Helen. We were spoiled with a warm, family-like hospitality. She gave us this savory, cozy egg drop soup on the house and a delicious dessert at the end. 1000/10 recommend

Was in the mood for some xiaolongbao and saw this place was in our neighborhood, so figured we'd stop by to give it a try. Ended up discovering a hidden gem! We were immediately warmly welcomed in by Ms. Helen, the owner. I didn't see soup dumplings on their ordering website, but she let us know they had them available off the menu. We ended up getting our dumplings plus some dan dan noodle, scallion pancake, hot & sour soup, and some BBQ bao - all of it was fresh, hot, and delicious! Needless to say, we are looking forward to many more future visits to this neighborhood spot!
