    Lamb and zucchini meat pie
    Lin F.

    Stopped by for some lamb and zucchini meat pies. Takes a while because everything is made to order but worth the wait. The skin is the perfect thickness, the filling is full of savory juices. I intended to eat half but convinced myself that it just wouldn't be the same if I took it home and let it cool. Just beware of the hot juices: wear an outfit you don't mind staining and nibble a hole and pour out the juices into your spoon like XLB. Your mouth will thank you. The cashier speaks English but you can also order from the QR code menu, which is in English.

    Beef soup !!!
    Nike I.

    We landed here as a plan B. (Cuz the hipster spot down the street had a 40+ min wait!). I'm convinced THIS was the place we were SUPPOSED to be at all long. Let me run down what we had: Warm soy milk (yes, I'm told by our friends who lived in China, it's quick protein), cucumber salad (crunchy deliciousness), puffy bread (I'm sure I have the name wrong... great for dipping in the cuke garlic juice), lamb cilantro pie !!!! It's hotttttt steamy juicyyyyyyy flavorful and heavenlyyyyy!!! , beef soup (you want this!!! The noodles are just perfect and the beef is tender as is the baby book choy.... And we had dumplings .... Yesssss a must. Fishcake and beef dumplings. Both outstanding. By the time we left, there was a line outside. This place is small and homey. Lots of locals. I will be back. Drooling.

    They take a 2 hour break in the middle of the day, so the hours can be a bit limited and this is a pretty popular restaurant. Only a table or 2 were still free. Despite this, our food came out pretty quickly. It's a bit of an aged restaurant, but you can tell it's a community staple and favorite and it's a small mom and pop restaurant. It's as they say, it's nostalgic, Chinese comfort food. Reminds me of going over to your family's house if anything for the ambiance. We got the: 1) Shredded Potato with Sauce: -One of my musts for appetizers. It's a cold dish, but it's refreshing and addicting, a bit oily, but the crunchy texture of the potatoes make up for it. Great palate cleanser between the hearty umami flavors and the carbs of the other dishes that we got. This was enough to share amongst 3 hungry adults. 2) Lamb and Green Onion Pancakes: -These are stuffed pan fried savory "pancakes". Think of a giant wheel hot pocket if that makes any sense. Filled to the brim. Super moist and juicy, soupy meat in the middle with green onion dispersed through out. It'll start leaking the soup so you can rub the exterior dough shell into it. -Love the slight crisp on the bottom and tops too. -A MUST if you are dining here. 3) Pork and Fennel Steam Buns: -I love fennel as an herb. Gives a slight licorice taste to the meat. Very earthy and yummy. 4) Lamb and Chinese Cabbage Buns: -Love lamb. Don't always see it in steamed buns either, so we had to get this. Slight sour taste from the cabbage too. Good stuff. The buns are hearty and perfectly steamed. Again, super juicy and filled with the juice of the meats. The shop was nice enough to throw in an extra of one of our buns. Thank you! If I don't miss the timing, I'll definitely stop by again.

    讓自己心態平和,會讓生活別有一番趣味,有時從容些,讓自己享受一個人的日子,靜聽風雨,慢看花開,安靜與熱鬧的日子,都可以是美麗的人生~ 今天是跟隨我家美麗的小師妹,也是美食駕到版主的腳步,來吃她大力推薦的餡餅, 吃餡餅,之前只知道爾灣的半畝圓, 生意很好,常常要等一陣子, 食神小師妹推薦的這家在 Alhambra, 專門做麵食的地方,聽了從小就是吃貨的食神師妹的話, 點了豬肉大蔥餡餅, 100 分,又香又好吃, 一點都不輸半畝圓,配上小米粥, 絕配!我們還點了個三鮮跟牛肉包子, 我跟朋友都覺得這包子外皮不錯,內餡三鮮就沒有豬肉大蔥好吃, 但牛肉的還行,兩個老人家, 這兩樣再加上小米粥, 豆漿,就吃不完, 包子的份量實在太大, 餡餅跟包子都有剩還帶回家了, 喜歡吃麵食的, 這個都是手工現作的, 時間會比較久一些,東西很好吃歐!

    NO FUSS DUMPLINGS yummy, satisfying, and meat filled dumplings. A hole in the wall with aunties in the back making great dumplings. Highly recommend the pancake pork dumplings. Crispy to almost perfection and so juicy! Not even that oily too. Quick service too.

    Pan Fried Pork Buns were my personal favorite. The Leak Dumplings were a close second. Definitely no frills restaurant offering an array of buns, pies and dumplings.

    Wonton soup, chive pocket
    Audrey F.

    A casual spot for dumplings and noodles. The spot is fairly small with around five or six tables. You order from a QR code, a waiter brings you your food, and you pay at the counter. Upon walking in, I was a little turned off because I noticed an odd smell and my table had soy sauce residue left on it, but I stayed because of the good reviews and because they make their dumplings in house. You can even see behind the counter the space where they make their dumplings and you can buy frozen dumplings to go. I tried the wonton soup, fried mini dumplings, and chive pockets and thought everything was tasty. The wontons and dumplings were definitely the highlights. They were savory, juicy, and porky. Everything is made fresh to order so they warn you that it could take 15 minutes for your food to come out but our dishes came out fairly quickly.

    MUST TRY!!! Everything was great here. The hot and sour soup was delicious, as well as all the dumplings (pan fried and steamed pork buns). I'm just surprised how fair the prices were. For 4 dumpling dishes, 1 noodle soup, 1 small soup, and 1 scallion pancake, the total was only $86 after tip and tax! The service and ambiance can't get more Chinese, which I love!

    Meat pie filled with beef and green onion
    Maria L.

    Today I was craving Chinese meat pie. I ordered the meat pie filled with beef and green onion , beef noodle soup and onion pancake to go. The order of meat pie comes in four pies. It was delicious. The beef noodle soup was also good. I did not liked the green onion pancake. It was kind of thick and it doesn't contain many layers. I would not order the green onion pancake again. But I would definitely order the meat pies and beef noodle soup again. This restaurant is very small. Seating for dine in is very limited. Service is very slow. If you are in a time crunch, call ahead to place your order and do take out instead of dining in at the restaurant.

    Jiang bao
    Jenny R.

    Came here just for the Jiang baos because of the reviews I read. Total mom and pop shop and you can see them making the in the front. You can also buy the juice dumplings frozen to go which I got. Haven't tried those but the Jiang baos were good but not great. It wasn't juicy on the inside from the ones I had before. A little disappointed from it but for 9 bucks it is a deal compared to how much the others are in the area.

    Pancake with egg
    Yu W.

    Highly highly recommend for takeout because their dumplings and baos are simply incredible, whether hot or frozen. Reminds me of the ones my grandpa makes! Would not recommend dine in unless you plan to wait an hour after ordering to start getting your food. Middle aged lady at the cash register is also just so grumpy and rude, like you're bothering her by being there. Traditional Chinese restaurants aren't known for their friendliness, but she had by far the worst attitude of them all. The younger lady that took over (because we were that long for 4 dishes) was much friendlier and helpful.

    Steamed Shiao Long Bao

    I was craving dumplings so I was browsing through Yelp and found Min Min Pie House. They have pretty high ratings and after trying their food, I now know why! Everything was delicious.! We ordered the following: - Cucumber with Sauce $5.49 - Beef & Green Onion Pancake (Meat Pie) $12.99 - Small Steamed Bun $11.99 - HK Style Shrimp and Pork Wonton in Soup $11.99 - Shredded Seaweed with Sauce $5.49 - Pork & Seafood Dumplings $11.99 Everything was really good, especially the HK Style Shrimp and Pork Wonton in Soup (which I'm craving already), Beef & Green Onion Pancake (it's their Meat Pie...so juicy), garlic cucumbers, and shredded seaweed (love that it had a bit of numbing taste). It's a small restaurant on the inside and as you walk in, you probably will see little aunties and grandma's making the dumplings by hand. I love that you can order everything online if you want to take it to go with ease. There is street parking and parking in the back. Please give this place a try, you definitely won't be sorry.

    On a Sunday morning at 8:30an in late November, I came here for breakfast with my family. This place is on my sister list to try out. It's next to the poke place on main Street. Inside space is small with several tables. It appears parent's and daughter's owns this place and speaks mandarin. We ordered from the QR code on the table and ordered of 6 plates. Wonton soup. Beef noodle soup had small pieces of beef and bok choy, xlb wasn't juicy at all, pan fried xlb taste better than streams one, wonton soup was home made and taste good. Big round Pork pan fried buns taste good, pork and leek dumplings taste good. The kitchen is small behind the counter and everything is handmade. Good food. Parking in the street.

The xiao long bao was next on the list, and these featured a more thick but still chewy skin. Unfortunately, two of ours were served "stuck together" which led to them breaking - sad! The last item, the beef rolls, were amazing as well. Not only is it a timeless classic, but the beef wasn't too dry. Between these tasty bites, we also shared a honey lemon green tea. My friend warned me about these mug sizes, and yes... one is probably enough for a table of four to share! This drink was super sweet, and it was definitely in need of dilution to be drinkable.

Chicken Fried Rice: It was soft and pillowy with great flavor, though I felt it could have used a bit more color. It looked a little pale, but it was still delicious. Shanghai-Style Chow Mein: This was perfect. The flavor was spot on, the sauce was well-balanced, and the noodles had the ideal texture. The ratio of noodles, vegetables, and meat was just right. Sweet and Sour Chicken: This was the highlight for me. My only regret is not ordering more to take home. The chicken was crispy without being overdone, and it was coated in that delicious sweet and sour sauce. Juicy Pork Dumplings: We were at a dumpling house, so we had to order dumplings. These did not disappoint. They were very flavorful, and the broth inside was rich and satisfying. We originally planned to order more dishes, but the portions were generous, and we ended up with just the right amount to leave satisfied. Overall, this place lives up to the hype.
