Food is ok, there are better places to try around convoy. Flavor is heavy on the salty side. But worth trying once!

The food is amazing and the service is great. Tim was really friendly and always checked in with us and never felt rushed. Definitely have the Bao Sliders and the salt and pepper wings.
The happy hour is perfect to try out some of the foods and very big portions for happy hours, too.Helpful 0Thanks 0Love this 0Oh no 1 - Rachel S.San Diego, CA9616Jul 14, 2024
Please get a phone number or service to take your orders. You have great food and drinks but hate having to coming in person to order and wait 20-30 mins when I could have placed a pickup order especially since parking is hard to come by depending on time.
The food is great and love it otherwise.Helpful 0Thanks 0Love this 0Oh no 0 - Jul 7, 2024
Steamy piggy is a pretty good place to try and eat. The service was wonderful and the staff working are very kind.
The food, in my opinion, is not necessarily a large enough quantity or quality for the price. I wish they gave a little more food however the flavor was pretty good.
I really enjoy that they have steamed buns that are designed to look like pigs.
The ambiance of the area is very nice. The restaurant is well decorated and there is an indoor and an outdoor seating area.Helpful 0Thanks 0Love this 0Oh no 0 - Jul 4, 2024
We debated where to go for dinner and settled on this place. When we got there the parking lot was full. We parked a block away. When we entered there was a 19-35 min wait. We entered our name on the iPad waiting list. Luckily, it was just the two of us so we got a table in under 20 minutes.
We were seated and given ice water. We were seated outdoors but it was mostly enclosed and the day was getting cooler.
The menu is a QR Code.
We ordered the piggy taco, piggy bao, bulgogi bao, chicken bao, and salt n pepper chicken wings.
The piggy taco and bao both used fatty pork belly. I really liked it but the fat texture might be off putting to some people. The chicken boa is fried chicken, very crispy, and the bulgogi isn't very sweet.
I really liked the chicken wings very much. It was hot, crispy, and slight hint of spice.
I can see why this place gets such high marks.Helpful 1Thanks 0Love this 0Oh no 0 - Jul 14, 20241 check-in
We met my cousin's daughter and her hubby at this restaurant and we all wanted to check it out. No reservations so we were a party of 9 including one toddler so we ordered two of each entree. The outdoor dining is spacious so we had plenty of room. We ordered a variety of dishes like chili wontons, Xiao loong bao, pineapple fried rice, chicken wings which were tasty and had a kick to it, shrimp dumplings, shanghai bok choy, beef chow fun, chive dumplings. All was good and plenty to share. Parking can be a problem as the lot can be full

The steamy piggy has amazing service great food. I tried almost everything I loved the chili wonton. I also liked the soup dumplings. The tacos are a must try. we even had the Bulgogi pancake that was more like a burrito!
Dessert was amazing It's a must try.! I will say the place is kind of small and I wish it was a bit bigger.Helpful 0Thanks 0Love this 1Oh no 0
