Yong Xiang Sheng Jian Guan Review Summary

Oct. 17, 2024 Update

AITA? I went for a snack. Ordered several things to go. Asked the guy to give me more vinegar. I watched him put in several tiny containers. I started walking home and started to eat the dumplings. I could only find one container of vinegar. I searched everywhere. Did the clerk remove the extra bottles while I was paying?

Original - The dumplings are great. I visit often. The shop is narrow, with few seats. The menu has pictures, so ordering is not a problem. Get them freshly made and suck out the soup.

Cheap and delicious juicy fried dumplings speciality restaurant. The inside is very small and they are geared more towards take out, but you can easily eat in if you have a small group!

Quality maintained after 3 years as usual. The Xiao Long Bao is extremely crispy on the outside, meaty and juicy on the inside. This is my regular supper takeaways every night after entire day of walking and shopping. Highly recommended.

I have been going to this place for a number of years. If I am in Ikebukuro I feel compelled to go and will at least get a box of takeout dumplings.
Cheap, cheerful and delicious.

Had the 6pcs Shen Jian Bao and the Beef Curry Soup. The Shen Jian Bao were alright, juicy, but missing a stronger umami taste. Eating the ones in Yokohama Chinatown leaves you wanting for more, while you feel full after eating 2 to 3 of these. They are not bad, with the filling, but also not amazing. The Beef Curry Soup was alright, with Bee Hoon and slices of beef. The beef was surprisingly tender, and the soup was light.
