Beyond their size, small businesses are defined by their spirit. And at the helm are their intrepid founders—scrappy, ambitious, and resilient. They invent and build things despite uncertainty, because it’s what drives them. Their risks lead to innovation that moves the world forward. And we need them.
After my daughter’s basketball game, we were all ready for dinner—and LOC Noodle & Dumpling Bar was just an 8-minute drive away. The restaurant is clean and family-friendly. We had five people at our table and ordered the following: • Signature Juicy Pork Xiao Long Bao（招牌鮮肉小籠包）– $13.75 • Signature Pan-Fried Xiao Long Bao（招牌生煎包）-$14.5 • Spicy Wontons（紅油抄手）– $13.75 • Beef Roll（牛肉捲餅）– $12.99 • Beef Noodle Soup（清湯牛肉麵）– $14.75 • Beef Fried Noodle（牛肉炒麵）– $14.75 My son especially liked the beef noodle soup, and the spicy wontons weren’t spicy—so everyone could enjoy them. Other food items were just fine. Just give it a try if you’re nearby.
I am very particular when it comes to authentic Chinese cuisine, and I have found a place that not only satisfies my appetite, but leaves me constantly wanting to come back for more and more. Not only is the food amazing but it is fresh, high-quality And seasoned to perfection. The icing on the cake is the stellar service.
Pineapple chicken was crispy and delicious. Dumplings were great and filling. Shrimp fried Noodles were also delicious and feeds at least 2 people. Thai tea was tasty and not too sweet compared to most other places. The custard dumplings were yummy and adorable!
If you’re looking for an authentic Chinese noodle and dumpling spot, this place is an absolute gem. The Beef Golden Noodle Soup is an absolute must-try—rich, flavorful, and comforting without feeling heavy. Every dish I’ve tried has been incredible, from the handmade dumplings to the perfectly balanced broths. Beyond the food, the owners and employees truly make this place special. They’re so welcoming, friendly, and eager to help you find the perfect dish. You can tell they put real care into everything they serve. And the best part? The food is fresh and healthy, leaving you satisfied but never weighed down. If you love authentic Chinese flavors and a warm, inviting atmosphere, don’t hesitate—this spot is a must-visit!
My husband and I were headed back home from a long day out and wanted quick food we hadn't tried before. We walked in around 7pm this past Sunday and the employees were hanging around the table chatting. We ordered the custard buns, garlic beef dumplings and spicy chicken entree and then went outside to wait 10m because it was dead inside and we felt like they were trying to close up. After 15m we checked on our food that was sitting there. Dumplings were great. Custard buns (3 for $11) were ok. Spicy chicken was awful. Tiny bits of dry seasoned chicken overly fried and breaded with equally bad fries. We were too hungry to actually read everything and didn't know it came with fries. $20 for an entree with no noodles/rice/veggies. The portion was small and of what we received we ate half because we couldn't stomach the dried bits. Since the only experience that was great was the dumplings we probably won't be back because there wasnt enough enjoyment in the rest of the food.
