    I think about this spot weekly! Everything is so good and made to order. I crave the sesame dumplings omg so good. definitely worth trying every dumpling on the menu they're all so good and you can see staff folding them fresh. bring cash!

    Great food, tastes authentic! The service and ambiance are great, clean as well. Ordered noodle and the baos.

    I'm honestly not sure why this place is rated so highly. Almost everything we ordered had a very strong pork smell, and not in a normal or appetizing way. Pork Soup XLB - This had too much soup, to the point that each dumpling just sank (you can clearly see it in the photos). A well made one is supposed to sit upright and not bottom heavy. Overall, I didn't think it was better than Din Tai Fung or Seven Grams. It had too much soup, and the strong pork smell really stood out. Pan-Fried dumplings - These were ok, but nowhere near the best I've had in SoCal. Crab XLB - This was probably the biggest letdown. It was the first time I've had crab soup dumplings where the pork smell completely overpowered the crab. I could barely taste any crab at all. The crab roe noodles were also underwhelming. Compared to versions I've had in Shanghai, these were much less flavorful, and there wasn't enough crab roe to coat all the noodles. Glutinous shumai - Was acceptable, but nothing memorable. Egg pancake with ham sausage - Skip. Wasn't worth the calories. Service was okay, but a little slow.

    I was randomly searching for crab roe noodles on yelp and stumbled on Auntie Qiu Kitchen in Arcadia. I ordered the crab roe noodles, pan fried pork buns and spicy wonton? The crab roe noodles were really good but it was a little small in portions. The pan fried buns came out piping hot and it was filled with soup. I thought I ordered spicy wontons but my wontons came out to be wontons with sesame sauce. It wasn't spicy but I really like enjoyed the sesame sauce with the wontons. Auntie Qiu offers a wide variety selection of food, the menu was pretty extensive but I knew what to order what I got there. The place is a bit small but when I went, it wasn't so busy and they had more people ordering take out. Overall, it was a comforting and great meal.

    A friend mentioned Auntie Qiu Kitchen is their favorite restaurant in the area so I had to come check it out. We ordered pork soup dumplings, pan fried pork buns, pork potstickers, thick chowmein with beef, Shanghai rice cake with pork and pork belly noodle soup for entrees. The wrapper of the soup dumplings is a bit thicker and chewier than Din Tai Fung. The pork filling is juicy and flavorful. We really liked the noodles and rice cake. We also got coconut lava balls, osmanthus ice jelly, and sesame mochi. The osmanthus ice jelly is nice and refreshing, and not too sweet. The coconut balls and sesame mochi were just ok. The staff is friendly. The decor in the restaurant is cute. I'd come back to try more dishes.

    after consulting my Shanghainese friends and checking this place out for myself. Auntie Qiu is an automatic No Brainer, must-detour for Xiao Long Bao & Shen Jian Bao Lovers and everything Shanghainese. That being said. I gave everything high markers. Both Soup Based Dumplings and Pan Fried Pie/ Baos were flooded with soup. Their specific Worcester Vinegar sauces were all local to Jiangsu & Shanghai and elevated both dishes--- fully enjoyed these two items. Shanghai Braised Pork was a solid 8.5/10, Jellyfish Salad 8/10, Shanghainese Scallion oil dry noodles maintained form factor and flavor on my rig during my trip out, am I missing anything.... This restaurant is worth driving from Rowland Heights out to Arcadia for dinner. Gentlemen in the front of the house was excellent. Stellar service and interior decor fits that whole Shanghai theme really well with the 1920s Art Deco & Neoclassicim that really brought the culture there to the attention of the West as the Paris of the East. Can't wait to come back with a party next time around.

    They have a large menu. I've been here a couple times and there's still more intriguing items I want to try. Once I came for lunch on a Saturday. Another time I came for dinner on a Sunday. Both times we were seated right away, no wait. Service is polite. Standout dishes for me were the Twisted Cruller Mochi Black Sesame and Shanghai Style Salty Tofu Pudding. Both were unique and interesting flavor and texture combinations.

    Super quick and excellent Shanghainese food! We ordered a bunch to try. The Shanghainese eggrolls were delicious and came out so hot and crunchy. The wonton noodle soup was simple but comforting. And the XLB were on par with dtf The mochi sesame donut was unique and a standout.

    I can't say enough about this place and their amazing dishes - we ordered the crab XLB, pancake egg crepe with hot dog, brown sugar glutinous cakes, salty tofu pudding, pork noodles, and pan fried dumplings. The XLB was HOT as it should be and the skin was just thick enough where it didn't break. I loved the salty tofu pudding as it's something I've never had before - it hit the spot on a rainy day. My partner enjoyed his noodles but felt it was a little too plain which may just be the style of the dish that we're not used to. His favorite was the egg pancake because of how flavorful the sauce was. They ran out of the pan fried buns when we got there so that's for next time. Big thumbs up for their self-ordering format

    lettuce in oyster sauce

    This place truly took me back to Shanghai, and every dish we tried hit the spot. This is their original location, and there was a wait when we arrived, so I recommend calling ahead. It's a little cramped inside but the waiter was attentive in checking on the progress of our food. We started with Wanlaoji, a drink I used to order often in China, and it was refreshing and nostalgic. The mini wonton soup was a standout. The broth tasted just like the ones I have had in Shanghai, and the tiny wontons made it comforting and hearty. We also ordered the steamed lettuce in oyster sauce, a simple but great addition to the table. The sheng jian bao was made fresh and came in a portion of four, which was perfect for sharing. It was absolutely delicious. The shaomai was another highlight, soft and full of flavor. Overall, this was a great meal, and I will definitely be back to try more dishes.

    好吃,现包的看起来非常不错,是比国内的包子还好吃呢 So delicious! They're freshly made and look absolutely amazing. Even better than the buns back home!

    TDLR: far cry from Shanghainese food in terms of flavor, but close enough for this area that enjoys fusion and gimmicky trends I went here twice to make sure it wasn't an off experience because I saw this reel from a pretty famous chef raving about this place. Maybe this really hyped my expectations due to growing up in Shanghai, but the flavor was seriously lacking both times compared to what I grew up with. The interior decoration is really adorable, although they did keep the hotpot tables from paperpot. Service was nice, but they only have 1-2 staff running around even when it's really busy so expect a wait due to the recent hype, but food does come out quickly aside from the pan fried buns (made hot). Everything we tried & my shanghainese parents, non shanghainese friends were mostly disappointed: -pan fried buns: excellent crunch, better than the ones in Flushing, NY that are similar but the dough is different from the real thing on top. Soup and meat is fine -crab roe XLB: barely crab taste and coloring -shumai: no taste compared to the real thing and pretty much all rice -hairy crab noodles: close enough if you haven't had it in years, but my mom was most disappointed in this since it's our favorite -braised pork was good in flavor but a bit tough, restaurant 99 is much better -scallop wasabi was random, but ok -osmanthus tofu had no flavor, others in the are have better -egg pancakes &sesame crueler: lack of flavor/mushy/ wouldve been fusion dishes That being said, some of my American Chinese/taiwanese friends did enjoy this spot. Its not authentic enough for someone who remembers how it tastes in Shanghai :/

    Came here with high expectations and it was just okay. The soup dumplings really stick to the paper if you don't pull them off right away. The food was very seasoned/salty. It's not a bad thing, the flavors were just very strong.

    Wow, it has been 4 years since my first review for Chef Tony Dim Sum in Arcadia. Time flies when…read morewe're enjoying great eats. It's time for an update... I recently purchased the 2026-2027 MySGV X 626 Night Market Passport Limited Edition valid through June 30, 2027. What a spectacular food passport with amazing free offers! Chef Tony Dim Sum is 1 out of the 24 participating restaurants in the MySGV food passport. It was my very first restaurant visited and my very first stamp acquired. Cool beans! Free offering was 1 Steamed Dim Sum Combo for dine-in only. No substitutions. Not valid with other offers. Thanks Chef Tony Dim Sum! Dim sum combo came with 1 radish cake with preserved meat, 1 steamed BBQ pork bun, 1 shrimp dumpling with chives, and 1 lava egg yolk with gold foil. Every item in the combo tasted delicious. Flavors were on point. Portions were good. If I had to rank them from top to bottom picks, it would be (1) shrimp dumpling, (2) lava egg yolk, (3) radish cake, (4) BBQ pork bun. I dined-in on an early Sunday evening. They were not busy at all. It must have been the heat... maybe no one wants to eat out on a hot day. Restaurant was clean and in tip top shape ready to receive customers. Staff and service were great. Food came out timely. Although it seemed as though they steamed the dim sum to order because each item pretty much came out one at a time. No biggie. I rather eat my dim sum hot and fresh than cold and stale. I didn't just come here for the free food. I love to support local businesses whenever I can. I also ordered other dim sum and appetizers. 1. Cucumber Salad with garlic and vinegar - cucumbers were crisp and crunchy, but not very fond of the dark vinegar taste, will not get again 2. Shrimp Dumpling - very tasty, but portion could be a bit bigger 3. Steamed Chicken Feet with brown sauce - I have had better, could have been a bit more tender 4. Eggplant stuffed with shrimp paste - BEST pick ever! YUM... highly recommend for all eggplant and shrimp paste connoisseurs! 5. Sticky Rice Balls stuffed with egg yolk - surprisingly good, lightly crispy on the outside and soft on the inside, egg yolk was sweet and tasty Total bill was $45 covering the purchased dim sum items plus tax and tip and excluding the free combo. Pricing was a bit higher than most dim sum places, but it's all good. This is just the beginning to MySGV food passport adventures. Can't wait for my next food spot stop and stamp!

Ordered white rice for $2.00 a bowl. The Pan Fried Taro Cake or 香煎芋絲餅 was really good and crispy. The Wood Ear Salad with Mature Vinegar or 陳醋雲耳 was descent. The Stir Fried Pork with Dried Bean Tofu wasn't in the paper menu, but was in the book menu. It was really salty and oily. The Steamed Dim Sum Combo or 蒸點四拼 came with four items and felt expensive for the $10.98. Felt the price was expensive for what you get. Also, expected the food to taste better for being a Mechlin Star restaurant. Make sure you flag down the waiters because they will not check in on you. Saw a customer yelled at the staff because no one check in on her.

We were literally just…read morehere a couple of weeks ago, living our best noodle life, and now it's gone like a ghosted situationship!! I'm now brokenhearted!!! :( We came back ready to reunite with that soy sauce chow mein.... simple, no nonsense, just noodles, bean sprouts, and onions doing exactly what they're supposed to do: minding their business and tasting amazing!! No extra veggies crashing the party and watering things down. As it should be!! And the siu mai? Solid, dependable, and absolutely did not disappoint!!! The kind of duo you start planning your next meal around... until the restaurant disappears on you. Now I'm just here, craving noodles and questioning how a place that serves delicious food would close down!!!!

    I've been coming here regularly for both breakfast and lunch ever since they took over the old Red…read moreChina space, and it has quickly become one of my go-to spots. The food is consistently good, honestly better than a lot of nearby places that charge quite a bit more. What won me over right away, though, was the breakfast combo. Two dim sum items and a hot drink for just $14 is a genuinely good deal. A cold drink is only $1 more (typical HK practice), and you can also take your drink to go for another $1, which is a nice little convenience. I'm pretty particular about milk tea, so I don't say this lightly: their half coffee, half milk tea really hits the spot every time. It's balanced, and satisfying. Beyond the combo, they also serve all the comfort staples, porridge, fried chow mein, Chinese donuts, and my personal favorite, rice noodles with a variety of fillings. It delivers the same comforting flavors you want from a casual dim sum-style breakfast, but without the inflated prices, long waits, and hectic atmosphere that have become so common at more traditional dim sum spots. This place is a solid, dependable replacement for the usual dim sum experience. The restaurant is spacious, clean, and comfortable, and the service is consistently warm and welcoming. The driveway can be a little tricky. It sits right next to the Taco Bell drive-through exit, separated only by a fire hydrant, so it's easy to miss or get confused when pulling in. But it's a small tradeoff for a spot that delivers this much value and consistency.
