Nick LucchesiApril 23, 2013Always near empty when I come in, but there's attentive, friendly service and it was the first post-Sandy meal for me. Food ain't bad (and extremely affordable), either.
Alicia Marie SmithOctober 25, 2012Their Sesame Bean Curd is the BEST EVER!!! And the spring rolls are made with mushrooms. I don't think I'll be able to eat anywhere else... ever.
tacho_nacho1February 20, 2013The best place around here. Bubble milk tea is amazing, food is delicious and the prices are great!
Great dumplings and such a lovely staff. Can't help but come here at least once a week! Have to try for yourself...
MoRizaOctober 24, 2011Try the General Tso's Dumplings - The Tso's sauce was perfectly sweet and spicy.
Don't eat inside. It smells like cat pee. But the food is great, so take it out or eat in their new outdoor seating area.
Gregory BumgardnerApril 18, 2012Agreed service is shoddy, they're Chinese what do you expect? Plenty of seats and they leave you alone if thats what youre looking for.
Eric ZiglerNovember 20, 2011This place may look run down and cheap (which it is), but the chicken dumplings are the crème de la crème.
Tian XieJuly 27, 2011Don't bother with this place, Vanessa Dumplings on 14th is far superior and cheaper. Plus they have crazy good sesame bun sandwiches.
Kevin GillespieMay 25, 2010the mixed dumpling plate was what i'd call "first date quality." TEN BUCKS. FOOL. get the peanut dumplings for after. nicest staff ever.
Eric MartinNovember 22, 2011Vegans beware, I got the tofu sandwich, came with a side of chicken bone, no joke.- The food is good, but the restaurant stinks like cat piss inside. Take out or outside seating is all I can stand anymore.
Tegan GeorgesMay 11, 2011Order a bunch of dumplings, and then patiently wait as your food arrives at your table one dish at a time.
Nate JaffeeJune 15, 2010Super nice staff. Dumplings are good, not the best but inexpensive ... an awesome neighborhood spot.
Sarah BellaNovember 25, 2012The Pho sucks and the server is SO MEAN. The meat sucks and there aren't enough leaves or additions for your soup. Don't ask for more of anything!
Cristina F-MFebruary 21, 2010dumplings are good, with a thicker wrapper than dumpling man if you like that. viet summer rolls are bad, with only lettuce inside instead of the mint, cilantro, etc. spring rolls are decent though.
Helen GalarzaNovember 14, 2010dont order over the phone for delivery. order online. the people are super rude and the phone and ALWAYS get something wrong. but when you do order get the pork dumpling soup.
Quinn ZimmermanFebruary 20, 2010Hard to find pho around here. Not the best pho on the world but gets the job done.
Jenny ParkDecember 11, 2010Do the curry dumpling soup. Do not do the rice dishes ... Most are pretty salty.
Fabio GrattonMay 22, 2011Rude people, fast-food ambience, mediocre dumplings. Pales in comparison to Dumpling Man just a few blocks away. Advice: keep walking.
Gee FojasJune 30, 2011Steamed vegetable dumplings were bland and empty. The woman taking orders was extremely rude.
