Nan Xiang Express - Montgomery Mall, PA

Nan Xiang was one of our stops, after getting boba from next door. We saw someone at the front making the dumplings by hand, but didn’t think much of it. Later, from the quality of the dishes we got, it made sense— everything we got tasted super fresh! We got the pork potstickers and the chicken soup dumplings. The potstickers (6 per order) were the perfect blend of crunchy and soft, and were so unique and well-seasoned. The chicken soup dumplings (6 per order) were also on par and piping hot. Definitely a great spot!

These are probably the best soup dumplings in this area. The xiaolongbao have savory soup in them, up to my expectations, and the pan-fried baozi are respectable as well. They were quite fast getting the food out but also it was not busy. The fried porkchop makes a good side. The stir-fry noodles and braised noodles are the weakest entries. Funnily enough, the next-door bubble tea and KPOT restaurants are owned by the same owners.

This restaurant is a hidden gem! Their handmade xiaolongbao are incredible—thin skins, juicy fillings, and just the right amount of steam. The beef noodle soup is comforting too, with tender beef and flavorful broth. And don’t miss the spicy wonton—the red oil peanut sauce is spicy but addictive. Will definitely come back!

We really enjoyed our first visit to Nan Xiang Express, a cute, modern Chinese dumpling house next to Macy’s at the Montgomery Mall. My date had the Summer Special Combo consisting of home-made Pork Soup Dumplings, fresh crisp Cucumber Salad With Garlic Vinaigrette and a sweet Passion Fruit & Lime Green Tea. I ordered the Wontons In Spicy Peanut Sauce and delicious Shrimp & Cheese Pot Stickers. The portions are larger than they appear on the menu photos, so our above selections were quite filling. We would recommend all of these and there are plenty more interesting dishes on their menu for us to try next time. It’s also exciting that this place is physically connected to a Bubble Tea Shop and a Hot Pot & Korean BBQ house which we also look forward to trying.

Food was piping hot. Condensed menu for their Express concept. Food was served to our table. Fairly spacious for a small footprint - tables and seats as pictured. Overall good experience and happy there's a closer location to me! Disclosure: drink fee was waived for leaving a review.
