The wonton soup is perfection

The pork dumplings were nice and they make the steamed buns in store (in front of you!).My first time having Zha Jiang but wouldn't recommend it. The wonton soup was fine but the broth wasn't salty enough. They seemed to be going for bright and herby, but there just wasn't enough seasoning so it was bland.

We were here late in the afternoon and were lucky enough to find street parking close by. It wasn’t busy at all at that time. We ordered Pork Zha Jian Noodles, Pork dumpling, Pork bao, Curry chicken bao and Spicy tofu bao. The noodles were just okay. The dumplings were very good and so was the pork bao. The pork baos must be prepped and frozen because they would come out instantly. The curry chicken and spicy tofu were just okay. For a sweeter taste we also ordered a Red bean bao and Lotus bao and the red bean was more to our sweetness and taste. Nice place to try out!

Wow ! Portland is really stepping up their game when it comes to Chinese food!!! I had never tried it, but these traditional Chinese baozi were so juicy, spiced to perfection, delicious, and full of meat and the Jia Zhang mian were just like they were in Beijing. I ordered delivery and don't know if they have dine in. I will go back again soon! They also have frozen baozi and jiazi to boil or steam at home! Can't wait to order through their menu!

Cute place, service was good enough, one of the bao buns in our order was the wrong one but they gave us another of the correct type when it was pointed out. The food itself was pretty good. I enjoyed the wontons, and the cold noodle I ordered was flavorful. However, nothing was amazing, and though the texture of the bao buns was nice, the flavor just wasn't really there. Worth stopping by, just not the best.

It's a small place but with a nice vegetarian selection of bao, and noodles. The service was great and the prices were reasonable. I would recommend the place to my Asian friends who like to eat vegetarian food.Vegetarian options: It was good stuff.

Had great bao buns and wonton soup. Soup had tons of wontons and the naps were very fluffy and filled. Soup was a little on the salty side for me, but my companions enjoyed theirs. I would give this place 5 stars but the person behind the counter seemed annoyed when we asked questions and like they didn’t want to be there.
