Amazing dumplings. Light and delicious. The scallion pancakes were so yummy. You won’t regret getting them. Their fried rice along with the green beans in garlic were my favorite. You add a little of their vinegar and it’s makes the perfect combination. Everything is to share so keep that in mind when ordering. Go here. It’s so worth it. The service was fast. The dumplings came to us within 5 mins of ordering. Staff was welcoming and friendly! Wish I had more and better photos but I was too busy eating it all.

Food was delicious! Got the scallion pancake as an appetizer which was okay! i also got the chicken soup dumplings, which I was SOOOO HAPPY to have found (since normally soup dumplings have pork in it)! It was really good and flavorful. The short rib and crab fried rice were both really good as well! Would definitely recommend the short rib fried rice and the chicken soup dumplings! The aesthetics were also so cute! Will definitely come back for more!

This was the best meal we had in our stay in LA, we had to come back for seconds. The staff were super friendly and the food was delicious. Highly recommend the Xiao-Long Bau, it blew my mind. Dine in: Yes Outdoor seating: No Takeout: Yes Delivery: Yes Curbside pickup: Yes … More
