We dined in for a late lunch as a family of three. The yelp waitlist indicated a 10-20 minute wait and we were surprised to receive a text 5 minutes later. Food came out hot and fresh. We ordered the Juicy Pork Bao, Pork Xiao Long Bao, Zha Jiang House Special Bean Paste with Mince Pork, Boiled Pork and Chive Dumplings and Fried Tofu. While there is no separate kids menu, our thirteen month old loved his food so much that he stayed in his high chair for the duration of the meal. Would highly recommend!

Absolutely blown away by the flavors here! The pan-fried pork bao and beef bao were incredible — a total must-try, and much bigger than I’ve had elsewhere. The cucumber salad was fresh and delicious, and they serve a big pot of tea which was perfect for sharing. Honestly, one of the tastiest dinners we’ve had in a while — we’ll definitely be coming back again and again! And staff is really nice and friendly!
