Recommend! Delicious pan fried pork buns, with crispy bottom and juicy inside. Great with the black vinegar & their tasty chili oil with light Sichuan peppercorn. 4 for $6.50… wish I ordered two! Will try pan fried dumplings+ pancake roll next time.
Decor is fun. And mouthwash available in the restroom? First time seeing that lol
Wed 11:15 am plenty of seats. By 12:30 pm bustling with lunch crowd
On the hunt for the best Xlb ! Wife wants to try after reading such great reviews.. first of all, love the ambiance.. decorated with lots of memories of Shanghai.. 2 chefs in the store mating fresh dumplings is a plus.. 4 stars for xlb.. a little sweeter than others. Lots of juice.. I. Love soy bean milk so have to try … it was average.. doesn’t have the smell nor the richness of yung ho… wife likes the salty soy brain pudding..
Came to Auntie Qiu Kitchen last Wednesday night with a friend. We were hoping to try the hairy crab with noodles, but they didn’t have it that night. So we went with a few other dishes to see what they had to offer.
The pan-fried pork bun was the standout. It was juicy, kind of like a bigger cousin of xiao long bao, with a crisp bottom and way more soup than we expected. Most places serve these pretty dry, so this was a really nice surprise.
We also got the crab and pork xlb soup dumplings. These were excellent. Honestly, I think they’re better than Din Tai Fung’s. The wrapper had a nice bite to it, and the filling was rich and flavorful.
The wonton soup was just okay. I still prefer the Hong Kong style over the Shanghai version. Same goes for the scallion noodles with braised pork chop. Both were fine, but not something I’d go out of my way to order again. We only got them since the hairy crab noodles weren’t available.
Service was attentive, but since it was our first time here, I wish the staff had guided us a bit more through the menu or offered suggestions when certain items were unavailable.
Parking can be a little tough, but there are free public parking structures nearby if you don’t mind walking a bit.
Underrated gem with huge portions and great tastes! I love love love the pork ball noodles — the pork ball was juicy and slightly sweet. The Sheng Jian Bao (pictured) were freshly made and just right. The price was delightful — never change. We endorse this place.
We really enjoyed eating at this new location of Auntie Qiu! We loved the pork and pickled mustard green noodle soup and the scallion noodles! The sheng jian bao came out really fast too! The ambiance is also fun and bright!
