Customer Reviews
I finally stopped by Chinatown to try Legend Dumpling + Bao! When I got there, it was a small but somewhat crowded place. It depends on the time of day when you might have to wait for a table. I was able to order through the kiosk, and I got the Taiwan braised pork noodles with streamed pork and cabbage bao. Please stop by! Definitely worth the time to eat here.
I'm glad they have rice noodles you can choose to go with any soup base. That's nice to see a GF Options here. The side dishes are good amount with well balances. Xiao Long Bao is not Xiao Long Ton Bao but still taste good with fluffy skin and juicy inside.
Ordered to go via kiosk but saw others who I assume were able to order online or over phone who came in to pick up their orders. Opened earlier than other places. Very clean restaurant & friendly quick service. Everything was delicious with good prices. Will return whenever in the area.
The price for dumplings is unbeatable so it's a great spot to stop in and try a few things. My only con was that the Xiao Long Bao are not soup dumplings like I was expecting, so if you're hoping for that I'd look elsewhere. Otherwise, good quick stop!
enjoyed my meal until i found a WORM in my ramen (pictured). the restaurant looks clean, however the kitchen is blocked by a partition, so i guess you don’t really know what can be back there. never in my life have i experienced something like this. immediately lost my appetite!
