Solid restaurant that is consistently busy on weekends. Their specialty is the fried pork buns and green onion noodles.

Went on a random friday morning. Service was eh, didn't feel welcomed when I walked in :/ When I pulled out the chair to sit down, I noticed it was sticky...Got the pan fried pork bun + the soup combo and jelly fish with marinated cucumber. The pan fried pork bun was pretty good, I'd give it a 9/10. However, the soup literally tastes like tap water with a bit of salt, not even exaggerating. The tofu thingy in the soup (idk the name for it) tastes undercooked. I would only recommend the pan fried pork bun here, nothing else is special.

Still the best sheng jian bao's in town after so many years. Truly a gem in the community. The shredded pork and green onion sauce noodles were really good too. The noodles are the perfect amount of al dente. If you're in the mood for no-frills good food on a budget, come here!

Classically 3.5 starIf you subscribe to the 3.5 star theory, this is a good example. Fried pork buns are excellent - crispy and very juicy. We also tried the sour noodles, spare ribs, and wonton soup, all of which tasted authentic and def fresh. Everything else is typical of a hole in the wall restaurant. Looks run down, tables are rickety. staff is quick to serve you and also kick you out. But at the end of the day who cares if the food is good.

+ Pan Fried Pork Buns (生煎包) [4/5]I will be back to try the 生煎包 again -- I think I shot myself in the foot by waiting to eat these because the soup sunk into the crispy bottoms. Even lukewarm, these were filled with so much soup and meat! I think they would be great with some scallions sprinkled on top for some freshness. I got 24 pork buns for $44. Good price for the amount of food!

2 must orders: the best sheng jian bao (pan fried soup buns) and scallion oil pork noodles. everything else is secondary and honestly not that good - i've tried the soup noodles and it was a hard pass. the cucumber jellyfish salad is a nice pairing to offset greasiness but nothing crazy. this place feels like a bay area chinese person secret. i was surprised to see so many reviews for this place because it feels like the ultimate hole in the wall spot - the tables are always a little sticky, the dining ware needs to be wiped down, there's literally only like 6 tables total in the restaurant. but the food is so fucking good!! and the owner is a nice chatty lady. +1 for that too.

I haven't been back here for a long time! Always love their Pan Fried Pork Buns. They may not be the best looking buns, but don't judge a book by its cover. Each bun has the perfect amount of soup and meat that goes well with its crunchy bottom. Service is fast. The only thing that needs work is the ambiance. They badly need a renovation. They can easily fit more people if they just rearrange their stuff.

Worst restaurant in the States. Came in with excitement to try their food. None of the dish is good. The 四喜烤麸is very sour and not fresh. The 狮子头is still cold inside. Most exaggerated is their fried baozi is not fully cooked the dough is still sticky outside. Most disappointed experience ever. DO NOT COME TO THIS RESTAURANT!!!

This is the most legit shengjianbao I've had in the bay area. The small meat wonton soup was just ok. I walked in at around 2pm to place a takeout order and woke up the chef from his afternoon nap (sorry) but they were super nice and still took my order. Can't speak to ambiance since I went as such a weird time but I will definitely be ordering the shengjianbao and congyoumian next time I go!

Pan fried soup dumplings are one of the best in the bay. Anytime I am in the area I will pick up an order. MUST try for dumpling lovers! Feels like they have converted to be an exclusively togo place, as I noticed the tables were pushed off to the side.
