Xiao Long Bao

6/19/2025 update: Whenever I'm in the neighborhood, I always have to come by and grab some shrimp rolls $4.60 (order of 3.) Their regular egg rolls $4 (order of 3) are good too. Alternating between each one gives a good contrast of flavors. The next thing you know, all six rolls are gone. It would be nice if they had some red sweet and sour sauce or maybe some sort of ginger vinegar egg rolls sauce for dipping. But it doesn't really need it. The wait was only about five minutes today at 1pm. Great job everyone at Xiao Long Bao. Original review: Xiao Long Bao is a take-out only dim sum restaurant. No indoor dining. We stand on the sidewalk and eat in front of the restaurant anyways, so no biggie. The other two dim sum take-out restaurants on Clement are more busy. So, if you are in a hurry, go here. The other two places are better, but not worth me waiting another 15 minutes. Our favorite items here are the fried crab meat dim sum and their crispy shrimp egg rolls. Both are filled to the brim. The beef pancakes are good if they are fresh. We came at noon-ish and the pancake wasn't crispy anymore. Regardless, I do recommend this establishment to our community.

despite getting my order wrong, this was a nice little spot to get tasty lunch for a cheap price! my boyfriend and i stopped here in hopes of trying soup dumplings, but i guess the server misheard me and gave us both regular dumplings. i was bummed because soup dumplings were what we came for, but i was also pleasantly surprised when i tasted them. very delicious and they give you a very good amount for the price (about 12 or so for $5-6) i’d say definitely stop here for food, but make sure they get your order right!!!

I purchased 2 beef pancakes, 3 scallion pancakes, 4 panfried dumplings, and 3 steamed chive dumplings. I was in a hurry to leave so I paid with my card and left. It wasn’t until I got to my car, I received a charge for $52.50. After calling and confirming the prices of the items that were purchased, I brought the food back to the store and received a $26 refund. Buyers aware!

When on the road and working you try and eat best you can, when and where you can. This hole in the wall only takes cash, you will walk away with either a plastic bag or a container of sorts and the folks don’t have patience w/ you if you’re not quick, clear and confident in your order. Whatever…the food is worth it! 🤌 It seems to all be made in house and sells off quickly which means they are producing and cooking all day as best they can to keep up GREAT value and simply good👍

The skin on shrimp ball were thick. The shrimp noodle was ok. The service is ok. It’s easy to over purchase. I got 8 order came out to be $37 something

We tried a few different dishes (beef rice noodles, lotus wrap, sesame ball, shrimp & chive dumpling) but none of them really hit the spot, they were good but not wow. Prices are fair, service is speedy and they accept credit card.

Tasty Dim Sum in the Richmond, freshly prepared and lots of different dishes, potstickers, fried wontons, shrimp ha gao and more. Credit card accepted. Busy at times. Beef onion cake or green onion cakes are pretty good. Try the crispy Radish Dim Sum, sold out most of the times. If you are allergic to MSG you should stay away from the soup noodles, like wonton or beef noodles.

Xiao long Bao restaurant in Richmond District, SF. For cheap take out Xiao Long Bao these aren’t bad at all. They also have pan-fried baos as pictured but these are NOT sheng jian Bao, a lot more doughy and less flavorful - no soup inside. Also, the dough is very sweet which i don’t like. They also do scallion and beef (pictured) pancakes. In terms of dim sum, Good Mong Kok is much better and bigger sizes. If you want cheap and tasty Xiao long bao, come here. The other baos are just ok. .
