Xie Bao Crab House Edison 蟹宝 — Restaurant in Edison

The restaurant is very bright and well decorated, felt super comfortable walking in. The servers are very sweet. We were super excited to try these menu items as they aren’t typical dishes available in this area!

The most anticipated dish was the most expensive, the crab roe over rice! It’s available over noodles as well, you can also order some extra rice/noodles as they provided a lot of the crab roe. It was excellent as it was hot and with every bite you’re able to get that delicious crabmeat! For the restaurant, I do suggest the crab roe comes in a different dish with possibly a spout lip to make pouring cleaner and easier. For a noodle dish, we tried the scallion oil noodles which is a classic and we throughly enjoyed as it wasn’t sticky, a bit better than others in our opinion. We had to try the crab roe & peking duck pork soup buns, although you get all these amazing ingredients, it did lack some soup. Lastly, we tried the crab row & pork pan fried buns. It’s a classic favorite of mine and it was well balanced between the two meats, however I would’ve like it a bit more fried and crispy at the bottom. To top it off we got a pitcher of the iced lemon black tea and it was super refreshing. I hope to try their lemon passionfruit soda next time I visit.

Overall, we were really satisfied trying this new restaurant and their appealing dishes. We can’t wait for the next time to try more and ask what’s their top...

If you’re a seafood enthusiast, this hidden gem on the 2nd floor is a must-visit. The restaurant serves a range of spectacular dishes, each crafted to delight your taste buds with unique and memorable flavors.

First off, the crab meat here is a revelation—fresh, succulent, and incredibly delicious. It’s evident that quality is a top priority, and it shines through in every bite. The crab roe over noodles is a particular highlight. The roe adds a rich, savory depth that perfectly complements the tender noodles, making for a dish that’s both indulgent and satisfying.

Another standout is the Salted Duck. It's prepared to perfection, with a flavor profile that's both robust and balanced. This dish alone is worth the visit, offering a memorable taste experience.

For those who enjoy a hearty, comforting dish, the Crab Roe and Fish Soup Pork Skin Pot is impressive. The soup is rich and flavorful, with the crab roe adding an extra layer of complexity. The pork skin adds a wonderful texture, making this dish a standout on the menu.

Overall, this restaurant delivers on all fronts, from the freshness of its seafood to the depth of flavor in its dishes. If you’re in the mood for exceptional crab and inventive culinary creations, make sure to head to the 2nd floor and indulge in what this fantastic eatery...

The restaurant is on the second floor of the building and has an elevator for access. It looked new so we sacrificed our wait for Tasty Moment but kinda regret that tbh. The restaurant struggles deeply with service and quality of the food. The food wasn’t bad but so bland. We ordered what we thought would be the popular dishes and no one at my table was impressed. The waiters struggled with English so it was a bit difficult asking questions. The soup dumplings were also inconsistent. We dug in right away but they were already ripping but not that it mattered since the soup consistency was not soup-like at all and was very thick. The service was lacking. We had three ppl at the table but they only brought two menus. We waited a long time for water and it came very warm… in addition, we had ordered eel w/ rice and an order of duck but they never put in the order. They gave a single tiny bowl of sauce for the whole table… The prices are also very high for individual dishes. We only got the crab roe w/ rice, the crab roe w/ noodle, the crab roe soup dumplings, and an order of edamame that totaled over $100. Oh and the edamame came out cold and we were told that’s typical of their cuisine. I would not come here again. The foods lacked flavor and were not satisfying. Service definitely needs to...
