    Left to right: 白菜猪肉 Pork and Napa Cabbage Dumplings, Cucumbers and garlic. 菠菜鸡肉 Chicken and Spinach Dumplings, and 羊肉水饺 Lamb Dumplings
    Kennedy J.

    Delicious dumplings! The coconut lava balls were delicious as well and not too sweet! Cucumber salad was the best I've had in recent memory, we were sat immediately around 6:30 pm on a Thursday as well. The place is small but cozy, two rooms of seating. Service was quick and food was hot! Overall great experience, would recommend for dumplings!

    Woodear mushrooms and cucumber

    Friendly and quick service. The woodear mushroom and cucumbers were very garlicky. Both the lamb and pork and chives dumplings arrived hot with good flavor. The soup of the beef tendon and noodles was a bit bland but the tendon was soft and hubs enjoyed the bowl after doctoring it up some.

    Pork and Pork Dumpling with Napa Cabbage (12)
    Aerielle S.

    Very casual and chill inside. The waiter was nice. The pork dumplings were my favorite dish. I love the dumpling wrapper and the meat and veggies inside were flavorful. The soup dumplings were good but they did not have ginger on the side which was disappointing because that is a must have when eating soup dumplings. The Beijing Noodles were underwhelming. Lacked a lot of flavor. I enjoyed the addition of bean curds in this dish though. The bean curd sticks had inconsistent texture and flavor. Some pieces were too soft and bland inside while other pieces were perfectly cooked with even spread of flavor.

    We arrived about half an hour prior to closing of lunch and we got a bit of attitude. We made sure whether or not it was okay to dine in, otherwise we would've had no problem eating elsewhere. We ordered quickly and paid the bill before their closing time but felt a vibe still. Moving along to the food! The soup dumplings were pretty good, it was flavorful but didn't have a lot of soup inside. The noodles were delicious but the quantity of noodles in each bowl were a bit underwhelming. I get that it's not favorable to arrive right before closing, but I feel like it's okay to be up front that you can't serve us or maybe telling us we can only take out instead but don't say it's okay to dine in but give attitude to your customers.

    My colleague and I were in the area and stopped in for lunch. The restaurant was pretty much empty for it being 1:30 in the afternoon. We both wanted something light but filling. So we came here, the host/sever wasn't welcoming but wasn't rude either. He just didn't seem happy to be working. The chef who brought us one of our dishes was more friendly. Asked my colleague if she needed a fork and checked in on us when other dishes were brought to us. The chow mein was a little greasy for liking but had good flavor, veggie egg rolls had a great crisp, and both dumplings were good, definitely had the homemade taste. Not bad for a while in wall.... Work on service with a smile....

    Chicken Dumpling with Spinach

    Delicious, family-run restaurant, with fast and practical service. Overall, quite simple, the food comes out quickly, but it's hot and fresh. I've been here twice now, and enjoyed the soup dumplings, and the chicken and chives dumplings, and the tofu as well. Everything was delicious and the prices are really quite reasonable and affordable for people of all income levels, which I appreciated the most. It makes it a great option for a lowkey first date! Therefore, I highly recommend getting takeout, or just coming in for a dine in. And afterwards, you can stroll through downtown Redwood City and enjoy the rest of your evening. :)

    This restaurant is a pretty decent hole in the wall. I treated my godson for some dumplings, since he was craving dumplings. I was surprised at how many pieces you get per 1 order, which is 12 pieces! The chicken corn dumplings had nice flavor, the pork and shrimp dumplings my godson ate, he also enjoyed! Careful when you bite into it, it's piping hot! The egg fried rice was delicious. I didn't want to order more than what we had because it was a lot of food for two people already. Located on Broadway next to the barber shop, street parking you can easily find or there's a parking lot around the corner across from the Caltrain. There's plenty of indoor seating available. They also provide take-out. We didn't wait long for our food and service was good! I would be a returning customer :)

    Basic home style food with no frills ambiance, hole in the wall, family business. Stumbled upon this place as we wanted a quick snack at 3 in the afternoon. Reasonably priced, limited menu, fresh ingredients. Flavor could be more intense, however adding the chili + soy sauce works. Will be back to try a few more dishes. Note, parking is a challenge and the cost is $1/hr with metering hours from 8-8.

Amazing oysters, clam chowder, and seafood dishes. The scallop appetizer is a must-have and you have to pair it with the bread. I suggest making reservations.

The menu is primarily accessed by QR code, but they will give a physical copy of the menu if you ask. There was plenty of indoor and outdoor seating available, and we were seated quickly. Chips are not complimentary, so we ordered Chips and Guacamole ($11) to start, and my goodness, it's been a while since I've had really amazing guacamole. It's fresh, it's chunky, it's a nice balance of other toppings - I was in love with it. We ended up ordering more chips (this time Chips & Salsa ($4)), because we had plenty of guacamole left over. The salsa was a nice roasted salsa, rich in flavor but not too spicy. The chips tasted homemade as well, as they weren't overly salted but had a nice crunch to them. They had plenty of homemade Aqua Frescas available, so I got the Strawberry Horchata one. I didn't realize they default to large ($7) from the start, as they also have small & medium. A little surprised by that, but the horchata was so good that I ended up being happy they gave me a large. We shared the Molcajete D. Carne ($40), which came with sides of rice, beans, and tortillas. The molcajete was huge - definitely plenty to share with at least 2 people! The meats were plenty flavorful and not overcooked, so they weren't chewy. It felt very authentic overall, and we were very content. Would definitely come back!

Unfortunately, the fried zucchini sticks were just not very good. Not only were they very mushy on the inside, they also carried a strange aftertaste that I didn't enjoy at all.

The ambiance is very casual since it's a food truck setup, but the fruit stand right next to it gives the place a nice local charm and makes it a pleasant spot for a quick lunch.
