    Service was nice and they were sitting behind the counter as we were eating. They dont sell just a side of rice, only as a combination with other things. There werent that many people dining in so it was a quiet evening. We ordered a pork and crab dumpling which we couldn't taste the crab. It didnt stand out. The sesame noodle didnt hit the mark. Im not sure what happened, but it wasnt what I remembered it to be.

    Good selection of food on their menu and tasty overall. It felt more like a takeout spot given the presentation of food, but we got a table in their small establishment and found it to be an overall pleasant experience. The food was great and filling - we ordered too much for sure! Their specialties were great and juicy. Overall, we had a good lunch and left feeling satisfied - only thing lacking was no water without buying it.

    Xiao long bao

    I went to Dumpling House recently hoping for a good meal, but left feeling pretty underwhelmed. The xiao long bao had flavor -- that was the only real bright spot -- but every single one broke before I could even lift it. No soup stayed in, wrapper fell apart. Taste was good, just... very fragile. Then the tomato egg noodles came, and wow, so basic. It tasted like something my 14-year-old could whip up at home in 10 minutes. No depth, no texture -- kind of just there. Overall: the dumplings (when they don't disintegrate) are decent, but unfortunately those breaks killed the experience. I don't see myself coming back.

    Hong Kong Style Wontons

    Didn't feel like cooking tonight so we decided to try Hui Tou Xiang. We ordered the following: Zhá Jìang Noodle Hong Kong Style Wontons Pork Hock Pork HuiTou (8pcs) Pan Fried Pork Bun Pork & Crab XLB Pork & Leek Pancakes Steamed Vegetables Although the flavors were decent. We didn't quite have any favorites. The fillings for the Pork & Leek Pancakes, Pork HuiTou, and Pan Fried Pork Bun were good but it was too doughy, wish the dough was done thinner. I liked the wonton soup but then the sesame oil and seaweed overpowering the soup. My least favorite was the Pork & Crab XLB, which I thought would have been the best, lacked crab flavor. The steamed veggies, Pork Hock, and Zhá Jìang Noodle were just okay as well. I think if I didn't have better dumplings, meat pancake, and wonton soup somewhere earlier this week, I would have enjoyed this more. On another note, They are in a busy shopping center on Las Tunas with limited parking space.

    Went there for late lunch and this was the first time I had the place after passing by it so many times. The portion size is good for me and so is their prices. One question I have is how did they get their pan fried dumplings to be juicy. It was flavorful! Staffs were very friendly as well. Smaller restaurant but it's definitely worth trying.

    I absolutely loved this place! I would definitely go out of my way to come back to this place for more dumplings! We came to visit another establishment in the same parking lot, but we ended up here since there was a wait time at the other place. When I walked up, there was literally no line, but I must've been lucky because as soon as I ordered shortly after the line started. The two girls at the front were helpful as I don't know the names of all the dumplings or what's inside and they helped me decide what I wanted. Anytime dumplings are involved, I always end up buying a variety since the family always wants everything. If you are from this area, you have no idea how lucky you are to be near this establishment. I would absolutely love to come back to try other items, if you are a local, please tell me what you recommend so I can make sure to get it next time. If you haven't visited this place yet, you're definitely missing out!

    Dumplings

    Small little shop where 6 people take up half the restaurant. Good service, attentive staff. Who brings out chilled glasses? For a small mom and pop that's crazy 5 star quality service. No one really does this anymore (except for bars) this was perfect for this hot summer weather. So I went with a large group and we all picked and item, everyone got a taste of everything. Everything tasted so good, the "spicy" dumplings isn't very spicy so I kinda just kept eating those. Can't recommend anything specific because I enjoyed everything

    Sesame Noodles
    Lily V.

    Came for a dinner with a group of wonderful friends! Parking was a bit difficult so we parked on the streets, we also saw a sign that said additional parking in another plaza nearby. The place is actually really small! Around five tables and seating? The menu isn't really long so it's easy to order quickly and I'm glad once we order the food comes fairly quick. We ordered some dumpings, pork Xiao long bao (XLB), shumai, scallion pancakes, sesame noodles, and potstickers. The boiled dumplings can be confusing since they all look the same. The shrimp sui mai is mu favorite, I think because it didn't contain ginger. They also gave us a bowl of ginger.... The sesame noodles are served dry and really good! You have to blend it well and make sure all the sauce is in because it's really thick. After that we ordered more since there's 6 of us so we got pork short rib noodles, chicken and cilantro dumplings, and pork XLB. I preferred the chicken and cilantro dumplings as well, very refreshing and tasty. They also had canned soda which also includes Diet Coke (the menu doesn't show Diet Coke). The restroom is unisex and glad they have one! Overall pretty good, I think I'm happy to try the place since I do enjoy dumplings but I can't have much all the time!

    Came here for the first time and so far so good. Ordered online and tried the pork hui tou, spicy pork wonton, steamed vegetables and scallion pancakes. Because I ordered online, it didn't say exactly when my order was going to be ready so I waited over 20 mins. When I went to pick my food up, the store itself was empty, and it looked like my food was sitting there for a while. My food wasn't hot lol. Next time I know to come earlier. Anyways, the pork hui tou was pretty good. I definitely want to try their food when it's hot, I feel like that would definitely taste better. My favorites were definitely the pork hui tou and the scallion pancakes.

    Carter S.

    It was ok. Some dishes were good other dishes didn't hit the spot. Service was good and food came out fast which was awesome! Def recommend the spicy mixed noodles, that was the highlight!

    Scallion pancakes and three flavor boiled dumplings
    Karen L.

    Still a good spot for Chinese comfort food and dumplings. There's about 10 tables give or take and comfortable seating. We had from order of most to least favorite: - pork hui tou: this is the specialty of this place and they still a good job with the crispy outside shell - three flavor dumplings: this is surprisingly pretty good and a solid dumpling choice with the shrimp inside - sesame noodles: very flavorful with the sesame sauce but note sharing is not easy at all given how long the video is - scallion pancake: unlike other places, this is fried to a crisp and much thinner. A unique spin on the usual but the downside is I can tell they used older oil on this. - xiao long bao: I am unfortunately less of a fan of thicker dumpling skin, so this was my least favorite. Doesn't stand out as much from other XLBs in the SGV.

    Alby O.

    The pork pot stickers were crunchy soft and tasty, the braised beef noodle soup was where I wished it was more or it lacked flavor. Yes the soup is spicy but the broth tasted watery and needed a bit more love. The noodles were slightly undercooked. The service was same as ambiance, meh. It's cool here for a quick bite for, the don't serve hot tea which was surprisingly on a cold evening where dumplings and tea can hit the spot. Cold water is not a good choice

    Deborah C.

    We stopped by on a Sunday for lunch and managed to snag seats for the five of us. The space is pretty small, but there's parking and a bathroom available. I got the sesame noodles and we split the pan fried buns. I really enjoyed the flavors and textures, and you can tell they make it fresh. They serve the food in plastic takeout containers, and there's bottled water available for purchase so if you're dining in, you're welcome to bring your own drink.

We ended up getting a set for $168 this time, which came with 6 dishes. It's also $35 per lb for lobster, and I asked for the smallest one. Apparently, the smallest one was 4.8 lbs, which was another $168, so I'm not sure if they upsold me. Anyways, the food was fantastic and everyone enjoyed it. This is what I thought about the food we got. House Seafood Soup - Simple and clean soup. Good portion, and it was soothing to eat. Lots of squid. (4/5) Clams with Spicy Sauce - Large clams with tons of meat, and the sauce was fire. Always a good choice. (5/5) Crab with Salt & Pepper - Loved the seasoning, and the flavors were solid. (4.5/5) Thai Style Beef Stew - First time trying this, and it was good. A bit different, but the meat chunks were tasty and the overall flavors were good. (4/5) Sautéed Pea Sprouts - Nicely done vegetable dish. It's simple but refreshing with good flavors. (4/5) Fried Whole Fish - This dish was gone so fast because it was delicious. Nicely fried and not overly seasoned. (5/5) Signature Lobster - I feel like you have to get this here since it's their specialty. It's pricey, but in my opinion, it's the best and freshest lobster in town. Tons of green onions, seasoned well, fresh meat, and lots of lobster roe. (5/5) Service was good, and they didn't automatically add a mandatory tip for a large party. The total came out to around $364, which is pricey, but the food was phenomenal.

We ordered French style beef, house special fried chow mein, honey walnut shrimp and steamed rice. First of all, the serving portions were very generous. All came in very large plates. The beef was saucy, tender and flavorful. In other restaurants, they add mushrooms to fill the plate. Here, the plate is full of just large chunks of beef. The shrimp in the honey walnut dish were large prawns. They were moist, succulent and tender. It had a rich flavor because of the mayo. The chow mein was full of chicken, shrimp, squid and octopus. It was perfectly crispy and saucy at the same time. We ate to our heart's content and ended up taking home plenty of leftovers enough for another meal. Our total bill was a little over $108 with tip. We will definitely be back. Parking is valet only and cost is $5.

Thankfully, the taste lived up to the appearance. The meat was incredibly tender, juicy, and packed with flavor.

The Peking duck lived up to the hype. I liked that they use pancakes instead of the buns, and building each bite with hoisin, green onion, cucumber, duck meat, and crispy skin gave a great mix of textures and flavors. The other dishes were solid too. The pea sprouts were fresh and loaded with garlicky flavor without being overpowering. The shrimp fried rice was probably one of the best value dishes we ordered at around $13 -- lots of shrimp mixed throughout and a great filler for the table. The honey walnut shrimp was unique because it came with melon, which added a refreshing touch. The shrimp itself was super crispy and I appreciated that it wasn't drowning in sauce or overly sweet.

The sweet and sour pork was unfortunately a disaster. The pork was sliced paper-thin--so thin that it felt like I was mostly eating batter with barely any meat. I was also disappointed they took the sweet and sour fish off the menu because that dish was amazing a few months ago. The five-color noodles were light, clean, and refreshing. The pork elbow was delicious with a fun, tender texture. The fish maw soup was very good and comforting, though it could have used a little more seasoning. Other than that, it was delicious. The steamed sea bass with soy sauce was incredibly soft and fragrant--a definite must-order. The scallops with vermicelli noodles were another hit: fresh, clean flavors and perfectly cooked scallops. My only suggestion would be to cut the noodles, as they came in one big clump and were difficult to serve. We ordered the beef fried rice but were given lamb instead. It was a bit gamier than expected, but still tasty. The black fungus with tofu was also excellent--well seasoned and full of flavor. Overall, there were a few misses, but the Peking duck, sea bass, scallops, pork elbow, and black fungus with tofu made the meal worth coming back for.

The tomato sauce was super flavorful without being crazy strong or tomato-forward. The cheese was baked perfectly on top, leaving a nice crispy texture but still chewy and stringy at the same time. I would definitely come back!

    On my first attempt to try HK Macau Bistro I went around 10am, the parking lot and street parking…read morenearby was full, and I saw a large crowd waiting at the entrance. I was too hungry to wait but I decided to come back nice and early. At my 8:30am visit I was able to be selective in their parking lot and no wait to be seated. Yay! I love the interior décor. The table had dominos underneath the glass, the dishes and utensils had lucky auspicious affirmations. I'm all for the positive vibes this early in the morning. Staff are incredibly quick and efficient. They are really on top of it. I think they really have to be in order to meet the demand of the busy crowd. I was excited for the breakfast specials since I love breakfast foods. I can eat it all day! The breakfast combos come with your choice of drink. Cold drinks are an extra $1. After looking at some photos on Yelp and some helpful Q&A with my waitress, I decided on their Breakfast Combo D. Porkchop & Egg Pineapple Bun with Dried Scallop Congee ($13.99) and I opted for the Iced Lemon Tea ($1 cold drink upgrade). What a deal!! I also added a side order of the Fried Dough Stick ($3.50) or also known as the crueler or Chinese donut since I like to have it with my congee. It wasn't needed from a portion perspective but I just like it. The food came out quickly, the congee first and then the fried dough stick and porkchop & egg pineapple bun. What a feast! The ladies at the lady next to me were so excited at my spread they asked me what I got. They thought I was really pro but it was actually just my first visit. Inside the pineapple bun there was a fried egg, porkchop, tomato, lettuce, and sauce. It was a huge sandwich. This is one of the bigger pineapple buns I see and it was well stuffed. The amount of food I ordered was enough to feed 2 people. The congee was really subtle. I didn't get the fried scallop that is in the name... I would just perceive it as a plain congee. The fried dough stick was oily and didn't taste too fresh. I probably won't order it next time. Nevertheless a still overall fabulous meal. My tea was refilled before I had the chance to ask. When I asked for the check, they knew to bring me togo containers without me having to ask too. Very smart service! I had a great meal here and I will definitely come back if I wake up early enough to come at opening.

    Came with family for father's day meal after I tried it with coworkers and enjoyed it. We came…read morearound 6:30pm on a weekday for dinner and they were pretty busy and parking lot was quite full, but luckily we didn't have to wait for a table and still found parking. They have a lot of tables inside so it is great for small and large groups. The waiters were also fast even though they were busy. We ordered their Kung Pao Chicken, Fried Tofu, Beef Noodle, Shrimp w Walnut, and Vegetable w Garlic. We decided not to get lobster since it was pricey. They took our order pretty fast and gave tea to drink. The pot of white rice is extra $1 if you order though. And their menu book doesn't have prices for some reason. Only the to-go menu has prices. Food was served in a decent amount of time, around 15 minutes. And all dishes arrived close together so we didn't have to wait long. The kung pao chicken is so good! Not spicy at all and very nice and crispy with good seasoning. It tasted delicious with some rice. The beef noodles were also delicious! It had good wok taste and was very flavorful. The tofu and shrimp were also good. None of the dishes were too salty and all were seasoned well and in pretty big portions, though I don't remember the exact price since they took the receipt away when we paid. But the meal was very worth and we had leftovers for lunch the next day. Such a yummy meal! I really enjoyed it! I am definitely coming back again!

    Boston Lobster is officially my go-to location for any|all Asian lobster cravings!! Newport…read morewho?????!!! My family and I used to religiously eat lobster noodles whenever we made a trip down to SoCal. The pick of the bunch was 100% Newport Seafood- no negotiations, no contemplations. Unfortunately, the last handful of times have left me extremely disappointed and heavily annoyed. The cost and wait times do not reflect what is actually being provided and most of our food ends up being left behind because it simply isn't worth the calories. In all honestly, I've grown a phobia w/ that specific restaurant at this point because of the countless letdowns. My initial taste of Boston Lobster was about 3 years ago and I had the most enjoyable meal. Due to our LA trip coming to an end, my BD thought we should do it big with some lobster noodles- for good old time's sake. I absolutely refused to go anywhere unless we would be giving Boston Lobster a visit! Sure enough, they did not disappoint! Dinner for 3 adults and 1 toddler consisted of: *Boston House Special Lobster [no spice] + Garlic Noodles for an additional fee. Medium Size 5-6lbs minimally. *French Style Beef Cube *Sauteed Snow Pea Leaves We ate like mf'n KINGS!! Each and every dish was spectacular- even the greens! While we should have gone with the small sized lobster, I'm proud to say we went down with an honorable fight. Lmao!! The lobster was cooked to perfection- meat was sweet, succulent, and so darn tender. The garlic noodles soaked up all of the delicious lobster flavors and were not overcooked and mush. The bo luc lac was flavorful, juicy, and complimented the bed of lettuce, onions, & tomatoes so well. The snow pea leaves weren't tough and old- this truly was a simply yet magical dish. Service was on point and the staff continually came by to swap out our plates full of lobster shells. Above all, there was no wait with our initial arrival. Parking is easy given the fact that BL has a pretty big parking lot specifically for them. 5/5 stars!! We dropped over 3 bills here and it didn't even hurt. Lmao- this place is that damn good! Don't sleep on this joint, y'all. Boston Lobster is the real deal when it comes to authentic Chinese/Vietnamese cuisine. This spot should be so much more hyped than it actually is!
