" I'm thrilled I stumbled upon this restaurant while in New Orleans! The soup dumplings were excellent and definitely a must-try item. Besides the food, the environment felt inviting—perfectly cozy to enjoy a meal. Service was regular; I expected a quicker response but there were no significant delays. I would definitely recommend this place to anyone looking for authentic Chinese cuisine. " (*Curated Review*)

" Disappointed with my last visit. The food lacked seasoning, especially the fried rice which was bland. I was hoping for more authentic flavors that I’ve experienced elsewhere. Service was decent, but I expected better given the hype. I did enjoy the ambiance though; it’s cozy and inviting. I might give it another shot, but very skeptical about the dishes. " (*Curated Review*)

" I have been searching for good Chinese food since moving here from NYC and Dian Xin hits the mark! The hot and sour soup was spot on, and the dumplings were fresh and bursting with flavor. The restaurant might be on the smaller side, but that adds to its charm. The staff was friendly, and the service was quite quick. Expect to come back again when the craving hits! " (*Curated Review*)

" A hidden treasure! Dian Xin blew me away with the quality of its food. The dumplings were splendid, and the crabmeat in them was super fresh! The restaurant’s ambiance provided a calm atmosphere, perfect for a break. Service was a bit slower due to the crowd, but the delicious food made it worth the wait. I left with a full belly and a happy heart. " (*Curated Review*)

" Absolutely loved my experience at Dian Xin! The dumplings were among the best I've ever tasted—so fresh and flavorful. My favorite was the crab dumpling, bursting with just the right amount of richness. I also enjoyed the stir-fried noodles; they were light and delicious. The atmosphere was charming, making it the perfect spot for a casual dinner. Highly recommend! " (*Curated Review*)

" If you want a taste of proper Chinese cuisine in New Orleans, you should check out Dian Xin! The dumplings were the highlight for me. I have never tasted soup dumplings as good as these. The service was friendly but a bit slow since it was busy when we went, which led to a slight mix-up with our order. Nevertheless, the flavors were worth the wait! " (*Curated Review*)

" I had high expectations based on the reviews, and Dian Xin did not disappoint! The xiao long bao was a highlight; the skin was delicate, and the broth inside was flavorful. The only downside was the wait time for our food, but the service was apologetic and attentive. The place was busy, but it added to the lively vibe. Can't wait to return! " (*Curated Review*)
