Hello Dumpling

There are many reasons to go to Hello Dumpling in East Dallas. The number one reason is because of Chef June Chow's amazing dishes. Which also caught the attention of Guy Fieri from Diners, Drive-Ins and Dives who announced to the world how amazing her restaurant Hello Dumpling is. See season 51 episode 6 2025. Many of us have been eating here long before Guy's visit but it just confirms what we all knew June's dishes are uniquely delicious!! Great food for the soul and the pocket book. I have tried practically everything on the menu and it is ALL GOOD! Here is what I highly recommend first time. Peking Noodle with Pork-Insanely delicious, sweet, savory, spicy! Shrimp with zucchini dumplings!! Jasmine raspberry tea with mango pearls. If June is not busy ask to to speak with her. She loves to hear how much you enjoy her food! 10 out of 10 highly recommend 😋

East Dallas has a reason to celebrate! Hello Dumpling is a fantastic restaurant serving Beijing Soul Food . And it’s good for the soul delicious. Olivia Martinez welcomed me and walked me through the menu. I ordered the Shanghai Noodles and Eight Steamed pork dumplings. Handmade noodles and dumplings are a work of love and art. Designed and seasoned to perfection. Every selection is an Epicurean delight. The restaurant is super clean and inviting. The order station and menu are easy to navigate. You can peer into the kitchen open window off the dining room. It’s easy to see why Guy Fieri recently featured Hello Dumpling on Diners,Drive-ins and Dives 2025 If you love this cuisine. You won’t find a better restaurant for twice the price. She has opened another location at Central Expressway at Walnut Hill Lane Put this one on your Must try list. See you there!

my first time going, and I was absolutely blown away. the atmosphere is amazing. I love the art and the plants and the nice small, intimate homey feel that it has, and for me being a vegetarian, I was very impressed with the vegetarian options that they had available without sacrificing on flavor and quality. It was absolutely amazing. Will definitely be going back multiple times.

The parking is a little hectic but cute little restaurant. I went Saturday and tried dumpling for the first time. It was family friendly even without a kids menu. The service was great. Even though its an order get a number and the items will be brought to your table type of establishment. We sat near the kitchen. The kids enjoyed watching the kitchen staff cook the food. I had the chicken and mushroom dumplings,shrimp pan seared dumplings , the short rib noodles and crispy basil chicken. I did not like the boiled dumpling. It was a personal performance due to the texture. The panseared were amazing. The noodle soup was bland. It didn’t have much flavor. The short rib in the soup was amazing. I wish I could have just ordered that. The broth and everything was just there. & the star of the show was the basil chicken! It was very good, my children loved it and so did it. I will return and recommend to anyone looking to try out a new place.

From 1 to 10 I'll rate this place with a 7. Food taste good, menu it's a little hard to understand the first time. But I love the family-oriented environment.

You know the food good if you dive in before taking a photo. The atmosphere is fantastic, restaurant is clean, beef broth noodle was spectacular and flavorful, scallion pancakes was great and I don’t even like scallion pancakes if I could give more stars I would. Their music playlist is also great as well!!!!! Please come here! I made this review while eating.

I would never recommend this place for any type of occasion or meal. Firstly, I was treated with mediocre, rude service as soon as I entered. I felt like I wasn’t welcomed in the restaurant due to the way the waiters gave me nasty glances and made me wait 16 minutes for a table, although I saw over 4 empty tables for two. (I was in a group of 2). The food, I found it to be overwhelmingly greasy. I’ve had better dumplings and I was disappointed with the lack of flavor in the food. The waiters then purposely took extra long to serve me my check. I had to ask 3 times before I was finally served my check. The price, however, is average compared to other Asian restaurants. I was very uncomfortable dining here and I was Expecially disappointed by the customer service. Please, if you want a memorable and satisfactory dining experience, do NOT eat here. This is the worst place ever!

Very cute space, friendly staff, and food was great. I didn’t enjoy the beef noodles very much, but i loved the dumplings and scallion pancake.

Certainly! Here's an improved version of your review: --- I've been to Hello Dumpling twice, and both times I've been pleasantly surprised by the exceptional food and outstanding service! As a fan of tea with boba, I've enjoyed three different combinations recommended by the manager, and each one has been phenomenal. I typically drink one while I'm there and get another combo to go. Their soup dumplings (Xiao Long Bao) are some of the best I've tried in Dallas, which is impressive considering I've sampled the top five soup dumpling spots in the city. Hello Dumpling may not have made the top five list, but they absolutely deserve a spot! Unlike other places where the dumpling wrap is too thick or chewy, the soup lacks flavor, or the meat is under-seasoned, Hello Dumpling nails all three components perfectly. Each element could stand alone and still be delicious, whether it's the wrapper, soup, or meat. Beyond the amazing food, the service is a perfect 10/10! I wish I had caught her name, but the petite redhead who seems to manage the place is incredible. Despite the busy atmosphere, she takes the time to interact with every customer, making you feel welcome and excited to try her recommendations. As for my favorite drinks, the Thai milk tea with pomegranate pearls is phenomenal and my top pick! The jasmine tea with mango pearls is incredibly refreshing, especially in the Texas heat, and is my 'to-go' pick! I hope this enhances your review!

Having an activation at the bar next door; I knew I was in dire need to eat something (since I don't take care of myself, especially when the husband is away.) as I had not eaten in 72 hours. But Lo and behold was I in for a solid treat. Here's how it went. Me not being to the bar next door, I didn't know if they were open but I'm always at something earlier than right on time. I paced back and forth and saw the dumpling signs; similar to a tardis, this place is a lot bigger than it looks on the outside. Immediately walking in, I was greeted with such enthusiasm. Being helpful the lady was giving me recommendations and I settled down with braised beef noods and some soup dumpling specials. As I got the dumplings she asked if I wanted the traditional dipping sauce and the other; I opted for both because why not? She then told me the noodles were going to be spicy if I kept the chili oil and that this would be a huge portion for food. I really appreciate that because some people are all about the money and not the experience. After ordering, they give you a little number that you prompt up on a stand at a table and the food is delivered to you. Upon getting the food here are my thoughts on it. Braised beef noods; broth is just about there. Needs a dash more salt or a bit more soy to be reduced. Quite tasty but just needed a tad more. The bok Choi was cooked a little too much for my liking so I didn't get to enjoy the crunch of a semi-cooked veggie. The beef melted into my mouth and fell apart every time I grabbed it with my chopsticks. Solid 8/10 Soup dumplings; it needed a bit more soup but it was truly delicious. Maybe a small spoon or pipette to squeeze into the dumpling itself. It was tasty and enjoyable and sort of messy. But I loved it. Would I come back? Yes. I'll bring the husband next time.

STEPH JUDGEMENT: Delicious dumplings and more in a cute and clean atmosphere. My friends had ordered from them before a few times and liked it, and they had a good veg selection, so we stopped in for lunch on a weekday. The restaurant is roomy, modern and clean, with a friendly staff. It's a fast-casual setup: you order at the counter and they bring the food out to you. We were hungry and were counting on leftovers, so we ordered a lot: - Sesame noodles (nutty and satisfying) - Peking noodles (lots of veggies with a spicy sauce--yum!) - Veg ribs (amazing! Made with lentils, the texture was akin to deep fried bricks of mashed potatoes--creamy on the inside with a nice crunch on the outside, enrobed in a delicious Chinese-style bbq sauce) - Pan fried veg dumplings (very good) - Veg Rice dumplings (steamed rice balls dotted throughout with savory vegetables, tasty and different) - Scallion pancakes (perfectly crispy with that elastic chew of rice flour) Everything was so delicious! The chef came out to chat with us and we got to tell her how much we appreciated all their vegetarian options. Would definitely visit again when next in the area!

Hello Dumpling is DELICIOUS! I was not expecting everything to be homemade... the pillow-y softness of noodles and spicy, yet juicy dumplings. I love asian food so I was in heaven! Here is what I ordered and how I would rate: - Bao buns (8/10) - Spicy noodles (9/10) - Dumplings (9/10) - Pork noodles (10/10) - Lemonade w/ lychee boba (10/10) The food is order at counter then seat yourself. The workers were amazing at recommending different options - that's how I found lychee boba in my lemonade and that was AMAZING! The restaurant is casual which is the perfect spot for dinner with friends. Highly recommend!

Finally got around to checking out this place a while back and overall, it was decent. Ordered the Braised Beef Soup Noodle and the pan fried Beef with Carrots and Onions Dumplings. The braised beef soup noodle could have been more flavorful and spicy in my opinion. The beef tasted great though (tender and cooked perfectly), and it was definitely a filling meal. The dumplings tasted good, but I've definitely had better.

Service was fast and made ordering easy. Food was hot and delicious. I have no complaints other that I was so full I needed a nap. The music in this place was great, not too loud, and there was a lot of sitting room

A quaint little place. Parking in the complex is kinda difficult, we went on a weekend had parked on the other side and crossed over because the lot was full. We got the soup dumplings, beef noodle soup, peking pork noodles, and thai tea with boba. Soup dumplings: 3.5/5 they are just okay. Not the best but not the worst. I would not order again because they are two dollars per dumpling. Beef noodle soup: my favorite dish of the meal; beef is tender and the soup has a good spice that is enhanced by the bean sprout and bok choy. However there's a place in plano that has a chokehold on me for their beef noodle soup and this does not beat that. The noodles are a bit too thick for my liking. 4.3/5 Peking pork noodles: 3/5 not horrible but no where near my favorite and I would not order again. Spicy level was good but the minced meat in the noodles had an interesting flavor that wasn't my favorite. Thai tea: 3/5 the drink itself is solid BUT the boba is horrible, would not order again. Nothing special, so I would probably go elsewhere for my asian craving but it's nice if you are in the area!

The food was amazing! The staff were quick and very friendly. I never ran out of tea. I can't wait to go back.

Such a cute restaurant. Everyone is so friendly and welcoming. The food was delicious! We absolutely loved everything! Definitely coming back and recommending

Randomly came here after the arboretum. Had low expectations but saw it had good reviews. There's limited good Asian food in actual Dallas (not the suburbs). This place was GREAT!! The beef noodle soup was so good, it had more flavor than the traditional Taiwanese beef noodle soup we've had at places like King Noodle or 88BaoBao and the noodles were obviously hand made. We got the soup dumplings as they were on special that day. They were soupy but the wrapper was a little too thick so it was more doughy than it needed to be but still great. 88BaoBao soup dumplings are a step above this for reference. We got the crispy chicken and it was very good and also got the cold cucumber salad as an appetizer which was great and refreshing. I'm so happy we found this place would gladly come back here again.

Hello Dumpling is a good time for fast food. Friendly staff we usually get to go as small interior.

Hello Dumpling is the place to go for dumplings in Dallas. The food is consistently delicious, the service is wonderful, simplified, and quick, and everything about the place reflects the effortlessly cool vibe of East Dallas. High recommendation!

The Peking veg comes with loads of sprouts and green onions. Both not listed on the menu at the restaurant or the website. So frustrating be what I absolutely loathe green onions. Didn't wanna be lame and pick each tiny piece off all through my meal so dumped 90% of it and ate the bland noodles. The spice was nice but even the sauce had a weird flavor. I've tried this place twice and keep being disappointed. Tonight was the last straw Also, the peach dumplings are great but the peach dipping sauce tasted too chemical-like. Tonight was the last straw. Sorry hello dumpling. The unfinished menu without every ingredient in a dish is enraging. I just can't anymore. Sad because the dessert was decent and the service was pretty fast

I can't say enough about this experience. From the time we walked in the door until we left, we were leveled up every step of the way. The owner Ms. June accommodated us above and beyond. (Speaking on dishes I had) The Braised beef soup was something else. The beef was for break tender and the soup was flavorful. The Chicken and Mushroom Dumplings were some of the best I've eaten. I been stationed in the Far East, and have had dumplings all over the world. These were in my top two. Freshly made, and perfect dumplings to filling ratio, the texture was spot on, and the flavor never lacking. The Hunan Ribs were fall off the bone tender, and the sauce was very good, we wished we had taken some on the plane with us to have when we got home. The dessert dumplings were the bomb . We would have tried them all, but were too full from the previous courses. The Apple dumpling was my favorite. It brought back some childhood apple pie memories for me as well as others in my party. The peach dumplings were equally great, they tasted like a mini peach cobbler....a scoop of ice cream and I would have had to take a nap where I sat. I only spoke on what I ate however, no one in my part had any complaints. They all raved about their dishes, and can't wait until they visit again. If I'm ever back in Dallas, I will be visiting again!

This is an order at the counter place and they bring your order to you. Service was speedy and the cold bites came out before the dumplings and noodles. We enjoyed every dish! The beef noodles are SOO flavorful and the smashed cucumbers are so bright and zesty. Next time I really want to try the soup dumplings. Personally thought the zucchini salad tasted like mayo so I wouldn't order it again but it's not bad! It's a cute little spot for meals with friends or for a quaint date.

Hello Dumpling offers a wide array of Asian dishes with a western flair. We tried their boiled pork and cabbage dumplings which were pretty good. And we both ordered the beef noodle soup which seems to be one of their most popular dishes. The portions of beef that come with the bowl was impressive! The beef was also cooked perfectly and was very tender and juicy. I have to say, one bowl will fill you up! Add on the dumplings and I was at my limit. Their format is quick service. You order at the front and then the food is brought out to you. You grab your own water, utensils and napkins and find a table. Overall, a filling and tasty meal!

The food was just average in my opinion. If you've never had real Chinese food then this will probably appear to be good. We got the beef noodle soup, pan fried pork and cabbage dumplings, and Peking noodle with pork. The beef in the beef noodle soup wasn't tender, and the flavor was just lacking. The pan fried pork and cabbage dumplings wasn't bad, but wasn't spectacular either. The peking noodle was also just average. They are dog friendly and have outdoor seating, so that's a plus. We had our puppy with us that day so choices were somewhat limited.

This place was okay. Service was really nice. Food quality was also alright. I wouldn't make my way here again if I wanted dumplings. I'd rather make the drive out to wu wei Din. We were served RAW pork meat and RAW dough for the dumplings that we got. (The server was nice enough to refund us back on this only. ) We had ordered the spicy wonton (the dish that also had a lot of carrots..) The braised spicy beef was not that flavorful nor spicy, but the noodle texture was really good. 3.5/5 We also ordered the rice dumpling, thinking that it would be the Taiwanese glutinous dumpling? It's just regular rice with chicken & mushroom inside. 2/5 The cucumber wasn't even smashed and the flavor was a lot more sweeter than you'd get at any other dumpling restaurant. I didn't mind it and neither did my fiancé. 2/5 The green onion pancake was really good! Even though it's not flakey like you'd normally get but the flavor and crispiness was good. 4/5 Not pictured: but we ordered the pork dumpling soup. There was no soup in the dumplings and the dough was just eh. By the time we got to the soup dumplings our appetite was already ruined. if you wanted something healthy that's also Chinese I can see why this place is rated high, but if wanted something a bit more traditional and more flavor I'd go somewhere else. *it's been a few hours now and my stomach isn't having a fun time*

Dumplings are a must here! Super flavorful and crispy on the outside. I would come back for the dumplings Beef with carrots and onions dumplings 7.5/10 Noodles were lacking flavor, it wasn't bad. Peking Noodle with pork 6.8/10 Sesame Noodle 6.5/10 I would skip out on the side and just grab more dumplings Pickled smashed Cucumbers 5.8/10

Nice, Old East Dallas neighborhood spot for dumplings and other Asian-inspired fare. Freshly prepared, homemade (including house-made noodles - yum), and soups with rich broth make this a healthy option without giving up the yum. Clean, bright, intimate space. Service is set up to order at the counter and someone brings your food out. Very casual.

This place took me by surprise! Good food speaks for itself. *mic drop* *Braised beef noodle soup: You must get this game-changing dish! There's a big chunk of beef that is super tender and perfectly seasoned. The meat just falls off easily and melts into your mouth. Broth was not too salty, well-balanced, and nothing was overpowering. I'm used to the traditional spicy dish, but it was very mild if you're wary of the heat. * Handmade dumplings: We got the pork with napa cabbage and chicken with mushrooms. These handmade dumplings come in 8 pieces with either the option of pan-fried or boiled. I would say probably get a mix of pan-fried and boiled. We got all the dumplings pan-fried and it had a great crunchy texture, but would prefer to have some boiled dumplings to change it up. Location wise, they have a private parking lot, making it very easy to find parking. You order at the counter, then find your own seating. They have high stool or standard seating. Service was fast. Food was affordable and delicious. I'll definitely be back the next time I'm in town.

Was ok.. Expensive for what you get.. Parking lot mostly full from Good friends next door.. Place was pretty empty for lunchtime.

Stopped in for a beef noodle soup and Shanghai sauce noodles; both delicious. The staff was helpful in helping pick other sides. The fried pork and cabbage dumplings were amazing too.

Amazing customer service, beef noodle soup was absolutely delicious and so was the pork dumplings

I absolutely love this spot! Their food is delicious! They are also family friendly and so sweet when we bring our toddler in to eat with us. Love everything we've tried but especially the pan fried dumplings!

You might not expect for there to be dumplings or noodles within 15 min of downtown in this direction, and that's why Hello Dumpling fills that need. Too many regional Chinese restaurants aren't confident enough that what they have to offer would interest anyone south of Richardson, and that's why Dallas is a Chinese food desert. That's what makes Jane and her crew so bold and so different. Dumpling house, so gotta try the dumplings, but the noodles also looked like a pretty decent choice. Jane also speaks Mandarin quite well--this could be a cute place to take your Mandarin-speaking parents if you don't have time to drive allll the way up north. Respect that they're trying hard to bring some of the most classic regional northern Chinese dishes to a wider clientele. \\ dumplings \ pork and napa cabbage \ boiled (猪肉白菜水饺) - love that their menu boasts some pretty classic fillings, including this ultimate classic - the dough was chewy in a way that was clearly made from scratch--the only correct way to do it, of course (says the 东北 northeast Chinese dumpling snob in me) - the filling was pretty much all meat and hardly any napa cabbage, it was overly salted and a little sweet \\ smashed cucumber salad (拍黄瓜) - another classic dish and particularly refreshing in the summer - Jane kindly explained that American cucumbers don't smash as well as Chinese ones, so these are cut into cubes - the vinegar is the game-changer in the dressing as it should be, would've liked more garlic \\ scallion pancake (葱油饼) - the exterior is bubbly which is tasty--i've just never seen a scallion pancake like this - definitely going for the thin crispy sort, but this was almost deep-fried crunchy - texture aside, it has the taste--gluten, oil, scallion, salt. so. yum. Also tried a bite of my friend's Peking noodle--not the 炸酱面 zha jiang mian we were expecting, but still good in it's own way. The noodles had a decent qq (chewiness). Will need to try the braised beef noodle soup next time! It's more Taiwanese than Bejing but curious how they do it. The store itself is very cute. As it is in Dallas, parking can be limited at peak hours. If I'm too lazy to make my own and can't drive up to Plano... Hello Dumpling could suffice.

First time here after hearing so many great things- and was not disappointed. When we mentioned it was our first time the owner took her time in explaining the different menu items. Food came out quickly and hot. Everything tasted super fresh and like a warm hug. Can't wait to try the rice dumplings next time.

I like how calm this place seemed. The soup tasted very good (however the braised beef noodle) I don't recommend for people who don't like heavy spices. Food arrived fast and the employees did informed where utensils were at and offered chili flakes or sauce. Place seems very clean and attentive.

Totally great food & service. Olivia is the owner/ mgr I believe. I'm not a tofu person. I totally am here!

Ordered beef bao dumplings ( main item) , chicken bits (appetizer) , apple dumplings (dessert) , and jasmine tea, a few weeks back, I started review at that but was distracted, and did not complete review.. However Hello Dumpling is memorable and worthy of a great review! Love the chicken bits are addictive! Service @ Hello Dumpling is informative, friendly and helpful. I asked for suggestions on what to order that was quick but not too heavy or filling - they suggested chicken bits and I loved it! Ambience is always sunny, upbeat and whimsical.

Good dumplings but overall pricey. The noodles are not so impressive. It's a very casual ambiance and it seems like a lot of customers choose to take out the food.

I have always had great service when I go. The food from the "normal menu" (what is on the boards at the counter) is always on point. The beef noodle soup is perfect on a cold day (or any day you are craving soup). The reason why I don't have them at 5 stars is because twice I ordered from the specials listed on paper at the counter. One time the food was not cooked through (it was tofu that was ice cold in the center) and another time there was a piece of hard plastic (like part of a machine). The server took care of me both times, but now I stick to the normal menu. Never had a problem when ordering the food they normally sell.

Went here with some friends one weekday night and the parking situation is pretty limited, I ended up parking across the street and walking over. All 3 of us got a few different variations of each thing so we could all try some. Your order at the front first then they bring it to your table. I tried the Pork with Napa Cabbage Dumplings $9.50 pan fried $0.50 upcharge, Chicken with Mushroom Dumplings $9.50 pan fried $0.50 upcharge, Beef with Carrots and Onions Dumplings $10.00 pan fried $0.50 upcharge, Shrimp with Zucchini $10.00 pan fried $0.50 upcharge. I believe each order was 8 pieces but could be wrong on that. They were all okay, couldn't really distinguish them from each other very well but the Shrimp were the best. For the Rice Dumplings we tried Chicken $9.50, Pork $9.50 and Beef $10.00. I actually kind of liked these more than their regular dumplings. I thought the Chicken one had more flavor and the Beef was better than the Pork. I also got the Shanghai Noodle $7.50 which you could tell had quality noodles but by itself was lacking flavor. I bet the soup is real good or the spicy versions they offer. Overall it was just okay, I would try the soup or spicy version if I go back but that's about it.

Yummy in the tummy! Always a treat to feast on fresh dumplings. Friendly service. I go on every visit to Ptown.

You order and pay at the register, and they bring food to your table. Simple enough. FOOD was not impressive. It's bland, reheating dumplings you can tell how thick the dough is. Dry Noodles were also bland. I got roped in to try because I love soup dumpling. Now that I did try, I will take this place off the list.

First time at Happy Dumpling for my friend and me. Everything was delicious! There is some parking in front of the restaurant. You order at the counter and your order is brought out to you. So many choices for our first time here. We decided to share the zucchini chicken & mushroom pan fried dumplings, crispy Basil chicken bites, and braised beef soup noodles. The homemade noodles in the braised beef soup were perfect! They were soft with the perfect amount of chew. The soup had a great depth of flavor....can you tell this was my favorite?!? I also really liked the crispy Basil chicken bites! Such a good idea to crisp the Basil. The zucchini salad was fresh and had great taste. The chicken & mushroom dumplings were good, but they could have been a little crispier. The dumpling dough was a little soft. All in all we really enjoyed the meal! We went to the front to ask about the noodles. She was kind in sharing they were fresh made.

Loved the aesthetic of the restaurant. We had the Chicken Rice dumplings, Soup pork dumplings, Braised Beef soup noodle, and the winter special chicken and shrimp soup. We enjoyed everything however the star of the show was the Pork Soup Dumplings and we could have lived without the chicken rice dumplings - they were ok but nothing special.

This is a true neighborhood gem with delicious noodles and dumplings in a bright clean space. Excellent for a quick casual meal in or for take out. Recommend splitting one or two dumplings and noodles. Owners are frequently there and give it a true neighborhood feel.

Was so excited to have a dumpling restaurant nearby but unfortunately the food was not very flavorful. Too expensive for my taste. I picked up to go but the vibe was very fast food, casual inside.

Loved their creativity with the dumplings! Only place I know that has dessert dumplings and they were quite tasted!

This place was amazing and a foodie haven. Loved the whole menu and everything they offer. The pork noodles were very flavorful and delicious and comes in a big bowl. The pork bao was good too. Really loved the taro tea and boba here. Epic place for food would come back in a heartbeat.

The pork soup dumplings and the beef soup noodles are absolutely delicious, service is quick and cordial and the place is clean, quiet to allow good conversation

First time coming in here and got the Braised Beef Noodle soup and dumplings with a mango tea, it was omg super delicious, not spicy im enough for my liking but super good. Added a little of hot oil and it was amazing the dumplings were super yummy, the braised beef was so tender and super delicious the flavor was amazing. The service was great super friendly and helpful. Was a little hot in there but maybe the a/c wasn't working properly but it was still very enjoyable the outside seating is great just too hot at the moment.

This is My favorite restaurant in Dallas. Awesome healthy food, cool location and space, and love the owner and staff.

Yep, legit. My wife said I could eat 20 of those shrimp dumplings so we ordered more. Our son said this is my favorite food ever after eating the spicy beef soup.

Today was my first time visiting this restaurant and I have to say that I was very disappointed. I usually love Chinese food, especially ANYTHING involving noodles, but this was the first time I was let down. Starting out from when I first arrived, I will say I am super appreciative that the staff wore masks, even though the cooks did not. I was asking about different menu items and I kept being referred to look at the screen, which is great for me to physically see the meal, but I had to ask questions on what was in the dish to decide if I wanted it. I settled on the chicken and mushroom rice dumplings and beef noodle soup. The dumplings were okay, but very bland. The soy sauce was the only flavor but I'm glad the rice was soft. The noodle is what really upset me. The bok choy was almost chewy, and I removed one piece to see if it was the noodle or indeed the bok choy. The noodles were flavorless, and so was the beef and the noodles. I have no idea where the color from the broth came from because it's as if the broth had no salt or seasoning. The chili flakes didn't help either. I told the staff up front that I didn't like my meal, but they gave no reaction to that. They just said they would clean off the table and that was it. They didn't ask for my feedback at all. There was a lady who asked me about my meal, I'm assuming she was the owner; but I hadn't had a chance to try the noodles yet or I would've told her. The staff were huddled at the front talking with each other when I told one of them, who I'm assuming was the lead, that I didn't like what I ordered. I don't assume to get a refund, but I would have appreciated being able to give them feedback, or it would've been nice to try something else as I spent what I would consider to be a lot for one person. The only thing I enjoyed was the peach lemonade. It's great to see there are such great reviews here but I will not be recommending on my end. I felt that I wasn't heard or that my feedback didn't matter. The food LOOKED great and I will still contribute those photos, but I'm incredible saddened because of my experience here.

I enjoyed the pan fried chicken and mushroom dumplings and their special pork/ shrimp boiled dumplings in chili sauce. The smashed cucumbers were good to eat with the dumplings since everything was kinda one texture, it was nice to have a crunchy bite. The beef skewers were a little salty but still tasty. My favorite was the hot tea - it was very fragrant and flavorful! I tried the spicy beef noodles but it was not my favorite. I like rice and egg noodles but these were flour and very dense. I would not order the noodles again. The rice dumplings were also mushy and I would not order these again. The parking lot is small, go to the back for additional parking.

We adore the handmade noodles and dumplings. They can truly be addictive. Be sure to get all the fresh green sides - from the edamame to the squash and carrot doodles and the steamed spinach salad.

The spot is cute and fun. However I will say that the food is very mediocre. I really expected a lot more interesting flavors but it's definitely not amazing. Truthfully the rice dumplings were not authentic in any way I know of, and honestly just super weird and confusing, I really do not recommend. The noodles I got were just Americanized chow mein, it was tasty, just a bit starchy... Cucumber salad was tasty.

Cute place, great food. The owner is so nice & hardworking. She should be so proud of her amazing shop!!
