I did not expect the wonton to be that delicious. The soup dumplings too, OMG i’m so impressed. Such a great restaurant, everything tasted so good. I’m traveling new york but I would come back just for these dumplings.

Was looking for a spot to eat in Williamsburg and ended up at Nan Xiang Express, which turned out to be exactly what we needed. It’s a faster, more casual spin on the original Nan Xiang, so you still get those familiar flavors without the long wait or full sit-down experience. If you’ve been to the original, you can definitely feel the connection here same roots, just more streamlined. The space is small and cozy with a relaxed neighborhood feel. Service is quick, and the whole setup is very efficient. It’s self-service, so you grab your own water and clear your table when you’re done, which keeps things moving and fits the express concept well. We ordered a mix of dishes and everything came out fast and tasted really good. The crab meat and pork soup dumplings were flavorful and comforting, with a savory broth made from collagen-rich pork stock that melts into soup when steamed. The filling had ground pork, crab meat, and ginger, giving it a nice balance of richness and subtle sweetness without feeling greasy. The spicy beef soup dumplings had a deeper, bolder flavor. The beef filling was well seasoned, with garlic, soy sauce, and chili adding warmth rather than overwhelming heat. Still juicy, still comforting, just with a little extra kick. The chicken fried rice was simple and satisfying. Made with fluffy rice, egg, chicken, and light seasoning, it was clean, comforting, and exactly what you want alongside richer dishes. We also tried the pork and sticky rice siumai, which felt heartier than typical shumai. The sticky rice added a chewy texture, and the pork filling was savory and filling without being heavy. For drinks, the hot soy milk was smooth and lightly sweet, very classic and comforting with the meal. The grape and lime tea was refreshing and bright, with a slight tang that helped cut through the richness of the dumplings. Overall they deliver good food, fast service, and a cozy, casual experience. Simple, comforting, and efficient a solid spot when you want good dumplings without the wait.

A pretty good soup dumpling with pretty thick skin and mild seasoning. I got the beef one and its not that spicy! Which is nice and you can always add more spice using their chili oils. They offer free infused water too. The sitting available are plenty.

Classic 小笼包 (soup dumplings) with authentic dipping chilli oil condiments! Such a comforting meal so far away from home.

The beef noodle soup was really delicious — the beef was generous and came in big, tender chunks, which I loved. The broth was rich and comforting. The only small downside was that the noodles were a bit too soft, as if they were cooked a little too long. The staff at the front desk were very friendly and welcoming, always smiling, which made the experience even better. I would definitely come back again.

Nan Xiang Express: Dumplings That Deliver ​Nan Xiang Express is a fantastic stop for anyone craving authentic and delicious Shanghainese cuisine, but their dumplings are the true star of the show. Specifically, their famous soup dumplings (xiao long bao) are a must-try. The delicate, thin wrappers manage to perfectly encase a savory filling and a burst of flavorful, piping-hot broth—a truly satisfying bite. ​Beyond the signature soup dumplings, their other varieties like the pan-fried pork dumplings are equally excellent, offering a crispy bottom and a tender, juicy filling. The quality, freshness, and authentic taste make Nan Xiang Express a top-tier choice for dumpling lovers. While the "Express" format means it’s fast and convenient, the rich flavors certainly don't feel rushed. It's a taste experience that will absolutely have you planning your next order.

So glad they opened a location in Williamsburg. Food is delicious and reasonably priced. The shrimp wontons in spicy peanut sauce are one of my favorite dishes to get anywhere and I crave it. The soup dumplings are just OK, I think something is lost when they aren’t made on site but if you need to scratch that itch it will do the trick otherwise go somewhere in Chinatown. They are open until 2am and there’s no waiters just order at the counter. It’s right off Bedford ave and Grand st. So good! Get it!
