    Barbecue pork buns = paradise
    Trinity T.

    I waited a couple times before giving this place 5 stars, but it really does deserve 5 stars. I love everything except the chow mein. It's just one of those places that brings the feeling of home and comfort, with all the deliciousness you could ask for. My kids ASK for this place, especially after sports. It's an easy going place with attentive customer service and homemade food served in 15 minutes or less.

    Located just past the Osaka Market plaza. Immediately got a table for 2 on a Saturday at noon and just got the special combo. Hot and soupy xlb, pan fried soup dumpling buns, cucumber salad, and custard buns for dessert really hit the spot. Definitely one of the better xlb I've had. They bring an electronic card reader to the table for the bill. Perfect amount of food and was honestly too full at the end and took a few buns as leftovers. Will def be back. Interesting decor choice to use giant AI art on the walls.

    M Dumpling is a must-try for dumpling lovers! Amazing soup dumplings addition to the Bay Area! Their soup dumplings are amazing (I'd say they are comparable to DTF!). The wrapper is so thin and delicate, yet perfectly holds all the flavorful, juicy soup inside. Every bite is packed with deliciousness and the filling is super tasty. Fresh, flavorful, and definitely worth coming back for!

    First time here and love it! Good food, good price, and good service. Location not that great as it is in a very small plaza with limited parking spaces, and restaurant kind of small with limited tables and seatings. May need to be in long wait during peak hours. Will be returning when crave for more dumplings!

    One of the most underrated dumpling spots in the South Bay. This is our go to spot when we want XLBs and pan fried buns done RIGHT. We usually order the combo meal for 2 of us which comes with 8 pork XLBs, 6 pan fried pork buns, 4 salted egg custard buns, and a cucumber salad appetizer. These are the juiciest, most flavorful pork XLBs we've found so far in the area. And we've never had the skin break on us ever. The skin is not as thin as din tai fung, but it holds a lot more soup. The pan fried buns also have a lot of soup in them, in addition to the meat being juicy. The bottom is crispy enough for the texture difference, but not crunchy/hard. The egg custard buns are actually runny and gooey inside, which apparently is really hard to execute (because most other places can't get it like this). This place is authentic, but still very clean and friendly. The staff is attentive and orders come out fast. Highly recommend to all our friends and family!

    Absolutely delicious! Best I've had so far in Fremont!

    Always delicious. Their XLB is some of the tastiest in the area. Thin skin, savory and juicy. Their pan fried buns are also wonderful. Very few restaurants offer both and they do both extremely well. Friendly staff. Service is always quick. I always bring friends and family here when in town. Tip: if you're going for dinner, you can park in the Wells Fargo parking lot after 6pm.

    I'm a big fan of M Dumpling! This has quickly become one of my family's go-to spots in Fremont to eat. Super tasty XLB and one of the best pan-fried pork buns I've had in memory. FOOD RECS // I've enjoyed everything that I've tried here so far: + Pork Soup Dumpling: the skin is thin but holds up/doesn't break when picked up. Juicy meat and soup inside. Better value than DTF for sure. + Pan Fried Pork Bun: *so* good! Crunchy pan-fried bottom, the bun part isn't overly thick, and the meat inside is flavorful. + Sesame Red Oil Pork Wonton: the pork wontons were tasty. Not too spicy; the sesame sauce balances out the red oil. + Wonton Soup: we got the chicken wontons for the soup; it was a great lighter option. + Cucumber Salad: refreshing slices of cucumber + Dried Tofu & Indian Aster Salad: great cold-dish appetizer. I haven't had this dish at many other places - the Indian Aster has to be imported into the US. + Garlic Stir Fry Green Bean: plenty of fragrant fried garlic on top, and plenty of green beans to share with the table. + Pan Fried Egg & Chive: pretty good + Salted Egg Custard Buns: delicious ending to the meal. I could easily eat two or three of these.

    Soft opening! Located in the safe way plaza with t4 I'm glad to have a dumpling option! We usually go to dumpling 85 but the ambiance here was bright and airy and our server was super nice and local! We talked about swim team! xLB was good! I liked the crispness of the scallion pancakes. Glad we have another option close to Danville!

    My experience at this restaurant was honestly very mid -- yet also pleasant and what not. Here's how the experience went for me and my family, considering it was the first time that we went: Food: We ordered quite a bit of things, including their shrimp fried rice, their pork buns, XLB, and vegetables. I think this one is quite a highlight because there were quite a bit of soup within the dumplings, which is what you definitely want. The pork buns were juicy, not too thick on the skin, and definitely not too salty. The shrimp fried rice was just right, and the wok made the shrimp taste very crispy and tender as well. The vegetables were also the same as well. Hospitality: At Chinese restaurants like this, there usually is not really good service. However, throughout my time there, I felt rushed and I felt like I was always looked at. Not even a thank you or a hello, not even a check-in. Not even 30 minutes in to our dinner and they were asking if we wanted our check. People, that is not how you run a restaurant -- let alone ask patrons on the spot if they already wanted to pack their food up. Learn some manners people. The restaurant itself is quite small, and the placement of the restroom honestly kinda disgusted me -- I was literally sitting right next to the restroom door, and I wish we didn't have to. Honestly, it's making me think twice IF I wanna even go to this establishment ever again.

    We got there around 11:40am on a Sunday and the restaurant was almost filled up. We were able to get a table right away. To order, you have the option of QR or by menu. One of dishes I specifically came here for was the stir fried string beans with intestine.. but I didn't see it on the menu anymore. They only had regular stir fried garlic beans. Sadddd but I decided to try a few different items we never had before. So we ordered.. ORIGINAL PORK SOUP DUMPLINGS (8) $12.99 -meat is juicy and tasty. Good amount of soup and the skin was thin yet a bit chewy. 4/5* PAN FRIED PORK BUN (6) $13.99 -soft pillow top with light and crispy bottoms. The bun wasn't thick and greasy like other places. It was super juicy and the meat was flavorful too. 5/5* SCALLION PANCAKE $7.99 -came out super hot and super crispy. Not too oily. 4/5* BEEF FRIED RICE $15.99 -came with peas and carrots too. Very tasty and well seasoned. There was a stickiness to the rice and the beef was tenderrr. I enjoyed the wok hei. 4.5/5* EGGPLANT ICEBERG $16.99 -deep fried eggplant. The batter was super crispy. It was coated in a sweet and savory glaze. The eggplant was super soft inside. It reminded me of fried bananas tbh. New dish for us so it was interesting. 4/5* They also sell a variety of handmade frozen dumplings too. They have dumplings to boil or steam, wontons, baos and pan fried ones. By the time we left around 12:20pm..there were hella people waiting outside for a table. Loved that the food came out quickly and super hot. Friendly and attentive customer service too. Would definitely come back again!

    I went here while on vacation because it was close to my hotel. It's a small clean little place with lots of parking. We ordered through a QR code and the food came out fast. We had the beef noodle soup with clear broth, veggie fried rice, xlb, and sheng Jiang bao. Everything was good but my favorite was the xlb. The wrapping was really thin and they were super juicy. The prices were reasonable and the portions were generous. The server was also nice.

    Cucumber Salad
    Olivia C.

    M Dumpling is one of my husband's and my absolute favorites. Whenever we're craving something reliably delicious, this is our go-to spot. Our must-orders are the sheng jian bao and xiao long bao. Honestly, we think they're even better than Din Tai Fung - they're bigger, juicier, and way soupier. We usually add the chow mein and green beans to round out the meal, and everything hits every time. We also tried the green onion pancake and cucumber salad and those dishes were delish! The staff is always friendly and attentive, which makes the experience even better. We came here on New Year's Day for our first meal of 2026 and were seated immediately. The friends we brought with us loved the food just as much as we did. We'll definitely keep coming back!

    Spicy wonton 4/5 - one of the best at local restaurants. Good flavor and juicy. Not spicy but good flavor and bit of a kick. Green beans 5/5 - very good and not too oily or soggy Salted egg bun 4/5 - wish there was more filling

    Visited Ping's with some friends and ordered a few dishes to share. Everything we had was…read moredelicious, and there wasn't a single plate that we didn't enjoy. The service was quick and attentive, and the restaurant itself was nicely decorated. The best thing we ordered was the Sizzling Yellow Croaker with Fried Garlics (9/10). The fish was super crispy, and the sweet, garlicky skin was incredibly addictive. I would 100% order this every time I come back. We also had the Shredded Cabbage with Sliced Pork (8/10), which was nice and tangy. The cabbage soaked up all the sauce, making every bite packed with flavor, while the pork provided a great contrast to the vegetables. The House Special Fried Rice with Pickle & Beef (7/10) wasn't anything extraordinary, but it served as a great base alongside the other dishes. The pickles were an interesting addition, as I've never had fried rice prepared that way before, but I definitely enjoyed it. Finally, we decided to try the House Special Spicy Frog in Stone Pot (6.5/10) since most of us had never had frog before. The flavor was outstanding, with a great umami depth and just the right amount of spice. The frog itself was a little difficult to eat because of the large number of bones, but the meat was tender and juicy. Replacing the frog with another protein probably would have made it more favorable, but I still enjoyed trying something new and didn't regret ordering it. Overall, Ping's Bistro is a great spot for outstanding Chinese food. Every dish we tried was enjoyable, and there are still so many items on the menu I'd love to come back and explore. The prices are on the higher side, but the quality and flavor make up for it. I'll definitely be back.

    If I were to sum up my meal in one word, I can do it easily: salty. Every dish I've tried today was…read moreincredibly salty. Though I prefer my food a little bit more flavorful, Ping's Bistro really shot every single flavor up. The Steamed pork belly with preserved vegetables was served first, and without a doubt, is one of the spiciest. It's a good size for sharing, but the preserved vegetables on the bottom was mushy and came in a very small portion. Though supposed to be a part of the dish, seemed to be thrown in just for some extra flavor. Though I selected mild spiciness for the Spicy Boiled Fish, it was still REALLY spicy. Maybe it's my spice intolerance, but this dish lights a fire in your mouth. Also, this dish is mala, so it numbs your mouth. Some people may enjoy this sensation, but it's a pass for me. The fish was really soft and tender though. The fish was my favorite part of the Spicy Boiled Fish. Not only there is fish underneath, it was surprising to see other ingredients like lotus, vermicelli noodles, and much more. The salted egg covered pork was extremely salty and oily. I was surprised to know it was boneless, and I felt like the salted egg crust is too thin, which let the taste of the pork overthrow any type of salted egg taste. The Country Style Sautéed Pork with Eggs and Black Fungus was again one of my preferred dishes, though it was extremely oily. I really liked the egg, black fungus, and bell peppers in this dish. The eggs and black fungus were soaked with flavor and the bell peppers balanced out the heaviness. The pork was also alright, but more on the tougher side. If you were to come to Ping's Bistro, I would advise you to order the Country Style Sautéed Pork with Eggs and Black Fungus. The floors were really sticky, but other than that, everything was alright. The water was poured messily, but I guess it's no big thing. The staff were really quiet and avoided interaction. When they serve your dish, they never wait an extra second before they leave for any questions or requests. They just drop the dish and zoom away. From my review, just remember: saltiness. I'm not convinced that I'll come back again, but I'm glad I tried it out.

We started with the One Piece Mixed Salad (tofu skin, vermicelli noodles, woodear mushrooms, carrots, celery, seaweed, and peanuts, all mixed in a savory, acidic, and spicy dressed ) and the Shredded Potato Salad, both of which made for nice appetizers. We also had the Cold Skin Noodles (Liangpi), a bowl of wide, chewy noodles mixed with a savory sauce and topped with tofu puffs, shredded cucumber , bean sprouts, and a creamy sesame sauce. Hailing from Xi'an, the Braised Pork Pita Burger was fatty pieces of pork braised in a savory sauce, served in a dry round of "pita," but even better was the Spicy Cumin Lamb Pita Burger, which contained a tantalizingly spicy, flavorful filling of tender spiced lamb. The Signature Beef Bone Noodle Soup came with noodles in a simple broth, topped with three bone-in beef ribs. The meat on the ribs was rather tough and sinewy, and the soup on the bland side, but the presentation of the dish was definitely impressive. Finally, the House Special Braised Dry Noodle was a bowl of noodles topped with a savory sauce with lots of different dried ingredients including tofu, s mushrooms, shiitake mushrooms, and red bell peppers. For each noodle dish, you could select from a variety of noodles, but my favorite by far was the 2cm "General Wide" noodles, which had an amazing chewy texture. Overall, this was a great restaurant for authentic Northern Chinese noodle dishes and other eats. Everything came out from the kitchen in just minutes after we ordered. The tasty dishes came at a good value, and the service was super friendly too!

There seems to have some menu change since the last time we came. We ordered 2 dry noodles and a cold spicy pig ears appetizer. The pig ears were piled up with no fillers - something hard to find these days. You can select the type of noodles so I picked the widest while my husband picked the middle one. I love the el dente texture of the noodles giving it a bit of chew. My braised pork belly dry noodles was not dry... very watery which was not to my liking. I want my dry noodles with as little gravy as possible. The flavor was light despite all the gravy, but the veggies and one egg made it up. The house special dry noodles had just the right amount of gravy for taste but not enough ingredients. I was wondering why the restaurant is called One Piece... I guess the entire bowl of noodles is one piece noodle as it was hard to eat as all the noodles are tangled. No complaints here just need to be careful with the splashes on your shirt. Overall the food was good, service was decent as we were offered actual menu instead of only using QR code to order. The place was not small with plenty of table. A bit noise as with all Chinese restaurants.

Service was attentive with refilling water but I had to ask multiple times for more napkins which got a little annoying. The restaurant also got really busy as it got closer to peak lunch time so I imagine that played a role. One thing that kind of put me off was my water cup looking dirty or having something in it. Hard to say what it was but it made me hesitant to keep drinking from it. I think my rating would be closer to 3.5 stars if I could do half stars because of their service and cleanliness. When asking for the napkins the second time, I saw their waiters cleaning a table then seeing me ask for napkins again, he immediately grabbed them to give me with his hands that just picked up others' trash
