    This place was a hole in a wall and they only have take out. Once you enter they are preparing orders and they're made since this morning. You have the option to have it warmed up and service was quick I got the Pork and Green Bean bao and was delicious! 12 pieces for $15 a steal! Definitely would come back to try others too.

    I wanted to eat some dumplings and came across Danacious Dumpling while in the area. It's a small shop with no dine in but the staff are constantly making dumplings. They sell frozen dumplings and baos, but also can cook them up for you. They also have other items they sell as well like noodles and porridge. I got the shrimp, chives and pork dumpling, and their Chinese pork burger. The shrimp, chives and pork dumpling was cooked to order for me and I did take out. There's no place to dine in. The dumplings were cooked well, plump and juicy. Came with some chili oil and vinegar on the side for dipping. The Chinese pork burger had a nice flat bun with good amount of braised pork. It had a nice five spice flavor but a little plain for me. Adding the chili oil helped with flavor. Overall, I'll be back here to get frozen dumplings or try other items. Parking here can be a little chaotic since the parking lot isn't too big.

    Cheap and fast. Solid take out option to take to a potluck or hang out with friends. No seats at the restaurant, it functions like a ghost kitchen.

    Tried 3 kinds

    Interesting 包子舖 Bao Place, not really about dumpling. Good selection on various bao by sizes and fillings. All well flavored and, of course, excellent shell to filling balance. We bought 3 boxes to go and pan fried the next day -- even more delicious. I recommend buying several kinds to your taste, pan fry some even when still fresh to see which way you prefer. I wish they offer mix-and-match boxes.

    Shrimp and pork dumplings and buns

    Soup dumplings were very delicious, the bao buns were not bad but definitely a little underwhelming. Staying away from the bao next time but dumplings were very good. The place was very clean you can buy most of their products frozen to cook at home we ordered to go. Doesn't look like there's anywhere to sit inside just a heads up. Service was fast though and the person working was very polite.

    Tried this place for the first time today and enjoyed both the shrimp, chives, and pork dumpling ($14.99/12 pieces) and the chives and pork bao ($15/8 pieces). It did take 10 minutes for both items which were freshly prepared, steamed, and warm. It's a takeout spot so after you order they do ask that you wait outside and come back when your order is ready. I liked the fact that the menu is in both English/Chinese and have pictures of the food items. They also offer frozen dumplings and more if interested. Overall, I enjoyed the flavors/filling of both the dumplings and bao. They both were steamed perfectly, had a good amount of filling in both and wasn't dry, the bao was soft/pillow-y, and it was great dipping both in the sauces they give out or to eat on its own. I'd definitely come back to try out other menu items.

    These were tasty dumplings. We enjoyed the boxes that we ordered. It was pleasing to watch the handmade dumplings being prepared. Staff was polite. The inside feels crowded, but the dumplings are intended to be taken to go.

    Danacious Dumplings is a small take-out-only spot offering a wide variety of bao and dumplings. The pork & green onion bao and minced pork & tofu bao stand out as must-tries, and they also sell frozen options for home. Though the place is tiny, service is patient and professional. Delicious, convenient, and worth it if you're craving quality bao to go.

    It's a hole in the wall with one cashier, there's a few dingy seats for waiting but that's it. This place gets people waking up early to pick up their orders at 9am. Because it's pretty good! However I can only give the Pork and Chive bao a full 5 star for it's taste. I had a few other items and they were _just_ good. I have to say the Pork and Chive bao was just really, really, good especially when hot. The bread is as soft as a marshmallow, and just enough hint of sweet. The mixture of chopped up noodles, pork, and chive inside were no slouch either. The noodles had the right amount of firmness and slipperyness, the chives don't overpoweringly announce their entrance like a surprise guest in WWE, and the pork tastes great! There is an English menu. Danacious Dumpling looks hella Chinese outside and inside, but thank goodness for the accurate English menu. Would order take out at 9am again!

    The baos delivered. It was the perfect ratio of bread to filling. I reheated my stash by heating up a big frying pan, 2 tablespoons of oil. Lay baos bottom down and pan fry. Once the bottom is light golden, throw half cup of water into the pan and cover. Keep the heat up high and let the water cook off. The bottom should be GBD. Take them out and eat with raw garlic - it's how we do it in the north!

    Chicken bone was found in the chicken mushroom bao. Be careful!
    Zhou S.

    I think the taste is ok. Better than other restaurants'. We don't like too strong flavors. I found chicken bones in the chicken mushroom bao. Be careful!

    Delicious bao. Many fillings to choose from. It's ready, warm, and quick. Remember to ask for sauce if you need it. It's not easy finding a practical quick bite to eat these days that's not super unhealthy. Really appreciate having this cozy spot for friendly pick up.

    These are the only baozi I've had in the USA that makes me feel like I'm in china! The clerk guy is very nice and efficient with his job. There is no seating. The dough is so chewy and soft. The inside is popping with flavor!

    The green onion and meat dumplings are good. Kept in refrigerator and reheated in microwave for 45 seconds. Still delicious!

    Do they have hot baozi or all of them are just cold?

    Depends on the time you go. Better chance of hot baozi at opening time.

    I've had Leung Noodle bookmarked for so long and it did not disappoint. It's pretty popular at all…read morehours (even during the morning when they open) so be prepared for a slight wait at times, but service is quick. I love how customizable the menu is. You can order soup or dry style, then choose between 6 different types of noodles, then finally choose your broth. The possibilities are endless! We went with the classic which was dry, combination noodles (which includes egg noodle and rice noodle), and nam vang (shrimp and pork). This is their most popular order and you can't go wrong! If you order it dry, it comes with a side of soup. My issue with Hu Tieu Nam Vang at other restaurants is that sometimes it's too dry and there's not enough sauce. Not a problem at Leung Noodle! They have a perfect amount of sauce that coat all the noodles really well. Tons of meat too - I'm not even able to finish it! They have sides that you can use like pickled garlic and chili spice. Would recommend getting a side of Chinese donuts too. It pairs really well with the noodles!

    It was decent. I'd rate it a 3.5 stars. I thought the portion looked small but it turned out to be…read morejust the right amount. The wonton is not good. Needed more flavor. The fried shrimp dumpling is not worth it. Legit looked like har gow but they deep fried it. Broth was good tho. The noodles had a nice chew. Although, I couldn't really tell if they used 2 types of noodles: egg noodles and Hu Tieu because of the dark sauce already mixed at the bottom. Service is a bit stand off ish. Funny how I can understand what they are saying. Prompt service tho. I'd come back if I was craving some Hu Tieu Nam Vang.

I got the Hu Tieu Nam Vang dry style with both the hu tieu (rice noodle) and mi (egg noodle). It was very tasty and a texture lovers dream. Bouncy noodles, crisp veggies, succulent pork and shrimp. The broth that comes on the side has a nice sweetness. Overall, great food and highly recommend!

The broth is fresh, clean-tasting, and the portions are generous. They also offer a great smaller portion called the Baby Noodles, which was perfect for the kids. The restaurant appears to be family-owned and operated, and everyone there is incredibly kind and welcoming. They regularly checked in on us, kept our water and tea refilled, and made us feel well taken care of throughout our meal. When we packed our leftovers to go, they even offered to refill our soup container for us--now that's exceptional service! It's the little things like that that keep customers coming back. They're currently offering 10% off during the month of July to celebrate their 10-year anniversary, which makes it an even better time to visit. I'll definitely be back and look forward to continuing to support this wonderful local business.
