We came in Saturday afternoon and it was by no means busy. Walked right in and got sat.

The food here is mediocre at best. I got the jellyfish salad, but it was lacking in sauce and in salt. I’m surprised that considering it’s from the ocean, it would’ve been salty. For the dumpling, it was good. It was lacking something again. The drinks are way too strong, and I feel like it wasn’t worth it. The service is amazing, tho. They have been extremely helpful and attentive.

Very tasty. Cool atmosphere. Friendly staff. Slightly pricey for what you get. I really enjoyed the soup dumplings & chili dumplings. The QR code menu didn’t work for me, so I had to ask for a printed menu. Happy Hour looks good here. Food comes out hot, which I love!

Food comes out quick, some dishes were bland, others were juicy and flavorful. I’d order the “Shrimp Toast” and “Shrimp and Pork Siu Mai” again.

Lovely little spot for dumplings and Tapas-style sides. Had outdoor seating, vegetarian options, and even an ingredient list for those of us in the group with food allergies. Our server was friendly and helped track down the ingredients for one of the items not on the list. No problems with our visit, only praise. Would have taken/posted pics of the food but we ate everything! Taking a pic of the seating area instead.

The place has a very good vibe and has a few vegetarian options. Liked the vegetable spring roll and edamame. Dumplings were OK. Service was quick and professional.

I cannot say enough praise about this restaurant! The menu is perfect for selecting so many different items to try-bring a friend to share! I finally tried Bao Buns!!! A-MAZING!!! The restaurant is beautiful – I felt like I was in another city. The outside eating area is great for people watching and enjoying the beautiful San Jose weather – especially beautiful at night!

I dined here on new year day and I must say I was pleasantly surprised. I had steamed barbecue Pork Bao and Chicken Gyoza and they were amazing!!! They are at par with Ding Tai Fung just that there are no super long lines here :). Servers are really friendly and explain dishes pretty well. Plenty indoor and outdoor dining available. Heaters are available for outdoor dining. Tons of people were dining outdoors with their dogs, that was an extra treat to watch :). Location is fantastic and it’s in the middle of beautiful Santana row. Plenty public parking available in the covered garage at under 5 mins walk. I would definitely go back. One of the best dumplings in a long time. Dumpling time!!!!!!

DO NOT GO HERE. They serve RAW pork. And according to reviews, have done so a few times to other customers.
