Luscious Dumplings

Such a great lunch at Luscious Dumplings. I am particular about my dumplings and this place was on point. The green beans were also a highlight of the meal. I would order those again. I also really liked the pork soup dumplings. I wish I had saved enough room for the dessert dumplings. The service was also very good. Gio was our server and was excellent. He did a great job recommending dishes. My dad doesn’t usually do well at dim sum places, so his help guiding my dad through the menu was greatly appreciated. My nephew ordered the chicken tenders. It was nice to have more options for the kids. We will be back.

This place was an absolute blast from the beginning we noticed this place was packed but luckily the bar was open,I warn you if you want a booth or a normal table you are probably gonna have to wait(if u go on a busy day). our server was on point with perfect service and very kind to answer questions and interact with us. The food was perfect me and my girl shared everything,because of the large portions the only issues we had were the amount of garlic in the noodles, and the buns were a bit dry and this place is a little pricey it ran me about 80 bones because we also go alcoholic drinks but apart from that the experience was perfect, I recommend this place and will becoming again.

My family and I had to try the soup dumplings and this place did not disappoint. Pan fried pork dumplings were hot and tasty, loved the sauce it came with. The soup dumplings were exceptionally hot so be careful (but that was perfectly fine with me). And of course those custard and red bean paste filled bunnies and pigs were precious and a must try. But I think the real star here were the custard filled charcoal buns, they were something I’ve never tasted before and although it was not my favorite, I’m so glad I tried them. We ended with my favorite sweet treat, sesame balls 🤗

This is a beautiful restaurant. The service was top tier! The food was pretty good the drinks were outstanding. Had the dumplings were tasty and moist. The triple delight lo mein was pretty good. But the yogurt drink was the star of the show! This place is a MUST! Thank you to our server for honest and knowledgeable recommendations.

📍 First visit with friends, excited to try something new. We love exploring restaurants, sharing dishes, and catching up over good conversation. 🍴 The food had some highlights — the combo fried rice and pancake appetizers were definitely the stars. But the service? That’s where things went downhill. From the start, the staff felt rushed and robotic. Not rude, but far from warm or personal. As we ate and talked, it became clear they weren’t just being attentive — they were trying to move us along. Servers hovered, asked repeatedly if we were finished, and barely let us pause without checking in. The breaking point: after less than an hour, while we were still sipping our boba and considering dessert, our server told us we needed to leave because a larger party was coming in. We were paying customers, enjoying our meal, and planning to order more — yet we were asked to vacate for a “15‑top.” 😡 Being rushed out of a restaurant, especially before dessert, is not just disappointing — it’s unacceptable. Bigger parties may mean bigger bills, but every table deserves respect. Bottom line: good food, but the service left a bad taste. If you’re looking for a place to relax and enjoy your time, this isn’t it.

Food was really good, served piping hot and fresh. We went during a really busy time and our waitress forgot our drink orders but I was able to flag her down and put the order in. Otherwise this place is great! We had a beef vegetable soup with dumplings on the side. My neice had the bbq dumplings and egg rolls. Oh I also ordered the scallion pancakes which were ok...maybe not as flavorful as I imagined they would but oh well! We had to circle the parking lot a couple times to get a spot.

My bestie and I went here today...Amazing! Mia was the best waitress by far! She explained the menu in great detail. She made great suggestions! She was on top of her game! Excellent customer service! Give the girl a raise! Ask for Mia! How about when they brought us the pork soup dumplings they looked so good we had to taste them right away and forgot to take pictures!! The pork belly with bok choy soup soo yummy! We also had the crispy wings..Hot and soo crispy! Finger licking good! My BFF had the Stir Fried Beef Ho Fun. Dont wait! Swing by.. You will love it!

Are you kidding me? Food, obviously super good, not only the main dishes, but also side dishes and noodles that are not main, served in perfect temp that won’t burn your mouth, nor it is too cold. Service, never had better, servers are kind and friendly, super duper. Atmosphere, clean, modern, also a bit of classic taste of Chineses deco here and there without making it look dirty or dusty. Most importantly, the details this store has put into the food and all are amazing. They make their own chopstick for their restaurant, you can see the marking on the chopstick that they designed the chopstick for their food. All sause containers are super clean, pork soup dumpling which normally burn the hella your mouth was in perfect temp, warm but not magma. I also want to say that I normally don’t like main dishes that are not main concept of the restaurant, like noodles on dumpling restaurant, mainly they’re less good, but not this place. Every single plate of food we ordered was good, including appetizer and bubble tea. Holy moly, must go place if you Asian. If you’re not Asian, still must go place. I will even upload my half eaten plates.

This place was awesome hoang was a goated server. Food was delicious. Ambience was great would recommend !!

Amazing experience! Our server Jasmine was very considerate asking about any allergies and overall great energy and very welcoming! Food was delicious as always.

Food has been great each time that we've come. The portions are definitely catered more towards sharing but that also means you might have some good leftovers for lunch the next day! Our server, Riley, was good and knowledge on the menu and recommendations. Definitely ask about the dumpling recommendations especially if you're not used to the selection they have. The ambience is fairly nice. Casual with nice lighting, there's something interesting on all the TVs to kill time wait in for the food. Definitely a place to keep as a regular spot for meals!

Visiting Texas and decided to try this spot. Definitely worth it! The food was delicious, staff was friendly, restaurant was clean and had a very welcoming vibe to it. Our server was Hector who was very patient with the questions we had and made it easy to order. We got steamed soup dumplings, beef cheese and onion pan fried dumplings, barbecue pork buns, and for dessert the strawberry Bingsu. Everything was delicious! The strawberry Bingsu was such a unique dessert and full of flavors! The staff even said goodbye to us as we were leaving which was such a nice courtesy action on their part. Definitely recommend visiting this location!!! 10/10

Looks delicious, however, I went there for the dumplings and quite honestly I was sooo disappointed. I ordered the pan fried dumplings and they looked great plated, however as I bit into them, there's this gooey thick liquid that comes out and tastes so gross. So, I decided to drain them by squeezing that liquid out of the dumpling. It was thick like a greasy gravy but didn't taste good. It was horrible. I've had very delicious pan fried dumplings before and these were not even close. As a result, you really couldn't taste the dumpling because it's flooded in this thick gooey gravy-like liquid. It's as if they're frozen and it melts as it cooks and mixes with oil turning into this thick liquid-like stuff that drips out of them when you squeeze them or bite into them. Yuck. It was gross. Never again! I do however, recommend the blanched garlic string green beans. They were absolutely delicious. I also recommend the mango ice cream dessert. I also ordered and enjoyed the egg rolls. The dumplings is the reason I went, and they disappointed. I ordered the pan fried pork, and the pork & cabbage. I didn't try any other food, although folks with me tried various entrees. Please do better with the dumplings, because I've tried dumplings in many different places, and in various states, as they are my favorite, and this is not even close to anything delicious!

I was excited to try this spot after seeing great reviews online, but unfortunately it was a disappointment. We ordered the steamed pork & cabbage dumplings, and the dough was extremely thick with very little filling. The flavor was bland and underwhelming, especially compared to many other dumplings we've tried. The lemon chicken also tasted artificial and the dipping sauce wasn't enjoyable. The cheese rangoons and vegetable roll were decent, and the Thai milk tea boba & passionfruit boba was actually the best thing I had. Service was another issue. Our server explained the menu and then told us to wave him down when we were ready, but he was rarely in sight. We had to stop other staff just to get him so we could place orders and get basic help and no one checked in on our food or experience. Overall, this felt like a waste of a date night and definitely not worth the hype.

Great spot to get best dumplings in town! The location is convenient in the sense of plenty of parking space. We avoided peak hours on the weekend, but there was still a lot of people. Due to the slow service, I am giving them a 4 star instead 4.5. Its a casual ambiance and more for friends and family. I had the pan fried dumpling along with soup dumplings and cucumbers! Very delicious! Please save room for the shaved ice. We ordered the mango one, which is enough for 4 people, but I did finish by myself. They fill it with popping Boba and mango, which is really good. This does take a long time to come out. I will definitely go back!

We got the eggplant pork dish, blue crab soup dumplings, spicy dumplings in soup appetizer, and lychee drink. We found a small piece of hair in the eggplant pork dish. We told the server, and he was very kind. He asked if we wanted it removed or replaced. They took away the dish and within 10 minutes, brought us a new one! The soup dumplings were unique, with the crab filling. But there wasn't much soup inside the dumpling. The lychee drink tasted okay! Like a boba store drink. Service was friendly. Inside was nice and clean!

First off the Yelp waitlist is so wonderful! The only hiccup is that if they text you the bar area is open, it's first come first serve. Now to the food...it was amazing. We started off with some salty edamame and some Boba tea. We ordered soup dumplings and the bunny dumplings. Everything was so delicious!

Great casual spot for dumplings -- semi‑modern, inviting atmosphere, friendly/efficient staff. Large menu, generous portions; the crab and pork dumplings and combo fried rice were delicious. Star of the meal: ginger‑chili green beans. Definitely recommend for dumpling lovers. 4.

Service was ok Ambiance is nice Food was descent. Nothing special ... 2 chicken lomein and 1 beef and broccoli with 2 drinks was over $50 I dont think I'll come back but it was ok not the greatest

Went 30 minutes before happy hour was over. We were served quickly after being seated promptly. The food was amazing! Ordered very light egg rolls and lo mein, plus some boba. Place was casual and cute, very chill vibe.

Decent spot. Lots of parking in a strip mall. Service was very good. Got the pork soup dumplings, cucumber salad, and angus noodle soup. Lots of tvs and neon signs for decor which felt a bit overwhelming. Good was decent. The angus beef soup was tasty while the other dishes were alright. I would go back if others wanted to but I wouldn't take the initiative to go again. If I did, I would try other dishes.

Once promising, now just passable--a disappointing return to Luscious Dumplings After craving soup dumplings, we found ourselves back at luscious Dumplings for a second visit--our first being during their soft opening. Back then, the experience was promising, even exciting. Unfortunately, this visit left us wondering what happened. First Impressions Matter... The menu book was the first red flag--worn-out, tattered, and sticky to the touch. It gave off more "garage sale" than modern dumpling house. The quirky ceramic dumpling napkin holders that once charmed us now felt like a joke--empty and neglected. We scanned nearby tables and spotted maybe one or two sad napkins peeking out. It's small detail, but it reflects a broader lack of care. Plus what's with these wooden tiny chopsticks, are they discriminating or just simply not being consistent? A number of tables have real chopsticks, not the disposable ones while the rest including our table only have those sad tiny pair of disposable chopsticks. Food: A Mixed Bag The scallion pancakes still hold their ground--crispy, flavorful, and satisfying, the chicken and cabbage dumplings were...fine. Serviceable, but nothing worth writing home about. Then came the sesame noodles, which were unfortunately a compete miss. A bitter aftertaste overpowered the dish, and we couldn't identify what went wrong. My cousin, hungry and determined, managed to finish it--but we both agreed it was a struggle. his pork chop rice dish looked great on arrival but was ultimately underwhelming in both flavor and portion, extremely thinly sliced pork meat. The car cheese puff? Totally forgettable. Service and Saving Grace Margarita, though initially reserved, carried herself with professionalism. Toward the end, she shared a warm smile that genuinely improved the way experience--and for that, we're grateful. The nice young lady at the front of the house was also very warm and welcoming. But one or two friendly faces can't fully redeem a place that feels like it's slipping. It's hard to compare Luscious Dumplings to its sibling restaurant next door, K-pot--where consistency, ambiance, and customer service are clearly prioritized. Unfortunately, Luscious Dumplings, though fairly new is falling behind. Unless things turn around, this may be our last visit--or last resort for a dumpling fix.

Two words: soup dumplings. Get you some! I've tried the pork, the pork with shrimp, and the pork with blue crab. LOVE the pork & pork with shrimp. The blue crab has a fishy taste, so if you like that, it's all you. It's less a crab taste and more fish. The service is impeccable. The ambiance is perfect for friends. There are several TV screens with various anime, Pokémon and dance videos.

luscious dumplings opened its doors just this summer, and it's making waves!! Specializing in a wide variety of dumplings, noodles, and Eastern Asian dishes, Luscious Dumplings is such a delight to have as part of the San Antonio food scene. I was blown away by the customer service! They talked to me about all the options they have for pescatarian and vegetarian diets and made sure to accommodate any requests. I've never been able to have so many different kinds of dumplings in one go! Their sides and noodles beautifully complimented the other flavors on the table. Make sure to use hot oil if you want a spicier kick! Their egg custard buns (vegetarian) are so cute! Each one has been handcrafted to look like cute characters. And I absolutely love their bingsu, or Korean shaved ice!! They had a limited time mango coconut bingsu while we were there. If you're lucky, you might still be able to try it if they haven't run out! They also have delicious fruit and milk teas available! My family absolutely loved our experience. Definitely a spot worth checking out!

My fiancé and I LOVE dumplings so we were stoked to find this place. We ordered our dumplings to go, the restaurant was relatively busy but no wait at the time we ordered. 30 minutes goes by, my fiancé politely asked how much longer, the waitress and hostess informed us our dumplings were being steamed and our order would be ready in a few min.. another 20 min goes by, we're now at 50 min waiting for our order.. I then go up to the hostess and ask if our order was almost ready, she informs me our order got mixed up with another. I understand things happen, but a heads up would have been greatly appreciated.. fast forward to actually being able to eat the dumplings, they were awful. Trader Joe's makes better dumplings :/ I wish I could recommend, but sadly my experience, mixed with the food, it was not worth it.

My family enjoyed these dumplings a lot!loved these dumplings! Customer service was excellent- and the server Jasime was very attentive and patient, as it was our first experience here! The pan fried dumplings were okay, they had a bit more juice/soup than I expected so that was a bit disappointing. We tried a very wide range of the menu from friend rice, soup dumplings, the kids meal of chicken nuggets and fries, and the soup with pork belly and noodles. This restaurant is super cute and worth trying out! Tables were well spread out and each table had plenty of space. We were placed in a booth as a table of 4, and that was perfect for us.

There seems to be a lot of hype for this place because my first visit I had to wait in line so check yourself in Yelp beforehand! I'm not very impressed with Luscious Dumplings. We ordered two different soup dumplings & none of them had soup. NOTHING!!! Then we ordered the lo mein and little piggy milk buns. Can someone please tell me if the piggy milk buns are supposed to be warm on the inside??? They were obviously steamed/warmed on the outside but the inside was completely frozen... The lo mein was the only meal that made this place worth it and that's not even considering the portion size. It was NOT really a shareable plate.

I was torn with the rating.. I feel like a 3.5 star would be most likely applicable rather than a 4. But 4 it is for now. We have been there twice, first time of course, because it was new and love me some soup dumplings.. service was not the best, we kept getting forgotten and we had to remind them of our missing entrees, tossed it as it being fairly newish. Dumplings were good but I wasn't overly impressed.. some of my dumplings were stuck to each other which made less enjoyable to eat since they would bust some were already busted on arrival. However the best one was the soup. My kid, that is super picky, loved it and has asked to return multiple times.

This review is based off our to-go order since we knew the wait would be slightly insane haha: Finally had the chance to try this very popular and new dumpling spot! Give me ALL the Asian food please! Especially as a so cal native transplant, I gotta get my fix when the craving is there too! I can see how and why based on all the people waiting for the chance to get seated and enjoy the good stuff! For this particular visit, hubs just wanted some to-go dumplings, too bad we couldn't do to-go orders for the soup dumplings (apparently those are not set as a to-go item). Based on the amount of people waiting it looks like about a 30 min to 45 min wait, but I can see why - the dumplings were fresh and plump full of meat and flavor! I also ordered their pig milk buns, those were SO cute and definitely a family favorite!! Parking: shared with kpot and other businesses so it can be crazy but not hard, just have to park further away.

The restaurant is casual cool. It had an Asian cooking show playing on the screen which reminded me of being in a nail salon. There is a vast menu of food and drinks. I tried the Panda Oreo Black Tea which was presented exactly like the photo and delicious. We feasted on Pork Soup Dumplings, Stir-Fried Beef Ho Fun and Stewed Pork Belly Noodle. The dumplings were a hit and miss with our table. The stir-fry was good but a bit salty. The stewed pork belly noodle was good but the broth was mild. I'd consider going back to try other items before ruling this one out. The service was fast but our server wasn't good at being descriptive when asked about certain items.

Could've sworn I reviewed this spot already! Sorry for holding out, y'all! I've been twice now & both times were DELISH!! Soup dumpling listed as appetizers are probably my fav. Although, all the others I've tried are so good too. Deliciously luscious! Cream puffs, egg rolls, that fresh apricot sauce on the side for dipping. So. Dang. Good. Service both times was good. Second time had a young man that was super friendly and so nice with the recommendations. Will definitely be back for more.

Server Gabby. Highly recommend the green beans and eggplant noodles. All the dumplings and buns are tasty and fresh. Brought some carnivore and classic chinese lovers and they ate all the veggie plates and took more to go. Stuffed dumpling plushy available for $5 at the register. Clean and booths available.

Good mix of authentic Chinese food and things catered more towards an American palate at this place. Most of our appetizers were just ok but their soup dumplings (I loved the crab especially) were delicious. Glad San Antonio has another solid Chinese spot We waited around 30 minutes for a seat for 2 which isn't bad for a Saturday night considering that they just recently opened. Ambiance was busy and casual, and service was great/friendly

I loved this place! The atmosphere is fun; however, it is loud in here! I don't remember exactly what we got. I believe it was the angus noodle and soup dumplings, and another dumpling. But they were all good! I preferred the soup dumpling over the other one. It was a cute little place and the service was good!

Ordered delivery through uber eats. Food was well packaged. Shrimp dumplings 5/5 perfect. Cheese crab puffs (crab rangoons) also 5/5 exactly how I like them. Would definitely order both of those items again. Hot & Sour Pork Shrimp Dumplings were decent 3/5 but the broth was extremely oily, just not what I expected, might order again to retry. Braised eggs were good, would've liked them soft boiled more, maybe more flavor, 3/5, probably won't order again. And the Boba Panda Oreo Black Tea was decent, mainly wanted to try it because it looked cool, but for black tea it is good 4/5, but won't order again.

The food there is absolutely delicious! Very nice employees and if you're a first timer coming in, they go through the menu with you so it's not "overbearing." Very diligent with food allergies, and I'm very impressed the last two times me and my friends went, it was nothing but a welcoming and good experience!

Went here with a few friends and lunch, and my one complaint would be that a table for four people was VERY cramped if everyone ordered something. But, the atmosphere was airy and pleasant and casual. That being said, if you're looking for more traditional vibes, this might vary from your expectations. Service was great, very attentive and patient as we all tried to figure out what we wanted - first time at any new restaurant is always an adventure. The highlight was for sure the pan fried beef, cheese, and onion dumplings. Those with a little bit of the hot chili oil really hit the spot (and my white pants but that is entirely my own fault). The Blue Crab and Pork soup dumplings were also VERY nice. The appetizer selection is great, and the sesame balls were really nice. The braised eggs could've maybe picked up a little more flavor, but still tasty. I for sure need to come back and try beverages - I wanted to keep my palate fresh to make sure I got a first taste of the food. But overall, an excellent addition to the foodscape in the area!

Food was absolutely delish!!! Mia also made our experience great! This was our first visit and we will definitely be back! THANK YOU MIA!!!!

Yesterday was the grand opening for @luscious.dezavala and I had already heard good things about this place. We checked it out today for lunch. Jose was our fantastic server. Aside from fountain drinks, they serve bubble tea. Dad had the Mango Yogurt, Hubby had the Fruit Green Tea, and I had the Taro Milk Tea. I was excited to see the Deep Fried Dough Stick on the menu. I used to eat that for breakfast when I was backpacking in China. Theirs was good and crunchy with a sweet dip. We shared the Beef Tendon Noodle Soup Bowl, Crab & Pork Soup Dumplings, and Scallion Pancake. The tendon could've been cooked a little longer to be more tender. As for the soup dumplings, I prefer @duckanddumpling ones. More soup and more delicate. The scallion pancake was the best I've ever had. It was excellently crispy! It's a 4.5-star experience, considering they're just getting started. Next time we'll probably try the pan-fried dumplings among other things. If you follow their Instagram, you get free ice cream! We got the Green Tea ice cream.

Located off I-10 this recently opened authentic dumpling establishment has a rich history and food that show it! The locale is on the small side with a healthy wait to be seated but well worth it. Apps and noodle dishes are delicious and hearty. Dumplings take about 20-30 minutes to but you won't be disappointed! Delicately made, flavorful and a bright surprise with every bite Definitely give it a try. Great service and they have good drinks too!!

Amazing first experience at this new dumpling restaurant in San Antonio. From the lively fresh ambiance to the efficient and friendly service, this venue hit it out of the park. Our server, Gio, was awesome too! We ordered the Sautéed Garlic String Beans and Hot and Spicy Dumplings from the appetizer menu to start. The sting beans were absolutely amazing and wonderfully done with the fabulous garlic flavor. The next course was the Pork Belly and rice... which was just fantastic. The pork belly was soft and tender and the steamed rice was perfectly done. Finally... the reason we came here in the first place... the Steamed Pork Soup Dumplings. They were absolutely terrific. The presentation was beautiful, the dumplings were piping hot and the size and flavor were perfect. As delicate as the dumpling dough was too, it never cracked. The order of 8 was also the perfect amount. I can't say enough about this first experience. It was simply even better than expected. and right up there with some of the best dumplings I've had. See you again soon!

We pretty much got every dumpling on the menu I think 11 in total, 2 bottles of soju, green beans, egg and egg rolls. Each dumpling order comes with 8 pieces and costs from 10-14 dollars. All the dumplings were pretty good or above average most of them 3.5/5. I think the plethora of options is great but I think it limits the ability to stand out. For example the shrimp dumpling is something you get at dimsum (har gow). But I'd prolly prefer any dimsum place over the ones here. They were smaller and a little dryer. The soup dumplings were also decent but don't have as much soup as some of the other ones I've had in San Antonio. You get the gist. The only dumpling I might not get again would be the yuzu chicken soup ones. It just had a very strong citrus flavor to it. Others liked it but wasn't my cup of tea. The little piggy milk buns were also very cute and as an fyi more of a dessert. Otherwise the service was great, attentive, fast, and we even got a discount because our beef cheese and onion dumplings came late by 10 minutes (also weirdly enough a pretty good dumpling combo). Ambiance is fine they had some dumpling decor which I thought was cute. But otherwise it's like any Asian restaurant, efficient and quick turn around. I would definitely come back!

Came on Saturday's grand opening weekend Really enjoyed the lion dance performance as it was unique & special. Despite the rush, they had many servers & helpers to compensate the long lines We ordered the soup dumplings, chicken dumplings, spicy dumplings, pork+mushroom noodles, piggy buns. For drinks we got the very strawberry cheese foam. For starters, the Chili oil. The flavor is lacking. Soup dumplings - 8/10 Chicken dumplings - 7/10 Hot & spicy dumplings - 6/10 (they were just.. sour?) Pork+mushroom noodles - 6.5/10. The flavor was there but the noods either sat too long before coming to the table or were nuked to where they were bunched up together and mushy at the same time. Almost un-mixable. Piggy Buns - 7/10. The filling was good. But 2 of them came out deflated and dried out. Refer to my pic for better explanation. The saving grace for 4/5 and not 3/5 stars was the very strawberry cheese foam + the service. My partner and I loved it so much that we grabbed a second one to go. Lots of TVs with a small bar and we liked the idea of this place being a late night option Maybe the food quality was rushed bc they are a new restaurant here but we had higher expectations as they have gotten a Michelin star back in 2021. We will be back to get another opinion once the hype has settled down.

So glad I finally had an opportunity to visit Lucious dumplings, it's been on my list for a while and it did not disappoint! They have an optional waitlist but I was there around noon on a weekday and did not need it so we were promptly sat. The decor is all very fitting and cute and our waiter was very helpful. We ordered boba, a few appetizers and dumplings, I hope to return again soon so I can try their entree meals as they looked wonderful. Appetizers were great we even took an order of sesame balls to go. The dumpling were delicious and came out hot after about 15 minutes from ordering, the boba came out around the same time, just a bit earlier. Everything was delicious and I would absolutely recommend this spot to anyone in the area, our order was bout $60 for three appetizers, two boba drinks, and two orders of dumplings.

The food was great - had pork soup dumplings, hot and spicy dumpling soup, and also tried a crab and pork soup dumpling my friend ordered. They were all excellent. I also ordered their beef noodle soup but it didn't come for almost 30 min or more so i got it to go. This was their first full day open and the service still needs to be worked out. I will definitely be back. Extremely good soup dumplings and my friend had the fried beef, cheese and onion dumpling and he said they were excellent as well!

Such a cute restaurant! I loved all the anime decor and the napkin holder was the cutest thing on every table. It was a very clean place. The staff was so helpful and amazing. Margarita recommended a lot of good plates we tried. I've never had bok coy and it had a sauce or marinade was so tasty. I will be coming back to taste some of the drinks and soup dishes.

My daughter and I had the best lunch at Luscious Dumplings. Every dish was a hit. The pan-fried potstickers were crisp and savory, the green beans were seasoned perfectly, and the cucumber salad was light and refreshing-not spicy, just cool and flavorful. The soup dumplings stole the show with their rich, comforting broth, and we couldn't resist the custard-filled piggy buns-adorable and delicious. Everything was made with care and came out hot and fresh. We'll absolutely be back to explore more of the menu!

Went on their last day of soft opening (5/27) before they close for a week and have their grand opening. We were greeted right away and given a table (went around 12:30pm, by then, there were about 4 other parties). Got the Panda Oreo Milk Tea and the creamy broccoli for starters (do not sleep on your vegetables, especially in an Asian restaurant - they were delicious!), then had the cabbage+pork+shrimp dumplings (pan-fried) and blue crab+pork soup dumplings (steamed). I could not only smell how incredibly good these were going to be, and the taste and texture also exceeded my expectations! Well-deserving of that Michelin status! To finish it all off, we had the stewed beef tendon noodle, and to me, that tendon was perfectly gelatinous. Absolutely a pleasure to consume. They didn't have any bingsu available, but it's just one of the many things I look forward to trying next time. I also loved the decor and the service was excellent.

This place was packed on a Sunday afternoon, a bit before dinner time. We got on the wait list and waited about 15 mins. The server let us know that the dumplings would take longer than expected, about 20 mins, due to some technical and personnel issues. I appreciated the honesty and we proceeded with our order. The food is great, it all came out at strange times but they had already warned us. I am hoping they work out their kinks soon because I see great potential. I am excited to return and try more items.

I'm always happy for more Asian places popping up. The decor and vibe of the place is quite nice. The food is pretty legit. The soup dumplings were quite tasty. The overall flavor is good. I did think it could have a little more body or something to it. There was a pretty good amount of "soup" filling. The fried rice was delicious. I have to call out that the service is great.

Food was amazing!!!! Service was awesome! and the ambiance was to cute!!! Love the details of the place and dumplings were to DIE for!!! Must Try!

This place just okay. It wasn't enough to brag about, but I will say that it's good to satisfy a craving. I think the only that we would come back for are the Sesame Noodles, and maybe the Cabbage, Pork, & Shrimp Dumplings. The Soup Dumplings lacked the "soup" it was just literally a dumpling. Definitely not our favorite, but maybe if we're craving something we may be back.

My husband and I are a bit skeptical when it comes to Asian food. Luscious Dumplings just blew us away. The soup dumplings were nice and juicy, and all the sides were ordered were perfectly seasoned. It did taste as authentic as it could outside of Asia. The staff are all very well versed with the menu and were taking the time to explain what soup dumplings were for first timers. It was a delicious, satisfying dining experience.

I thought their pan fried pork dumplings were good and I liked their soup dumplings but it was so pricey. I didn't enjoy the beef noodle soup, I thought the meat was tough and the broth wasn't as flavorful. We went when they were doing their grand opening so it was a bit of a wait. The workers were super nice though and the food came out pretty quick. The decoration inside is also really cute.

I recommend this place because it seems there is only a couple in town. But the kitchen is slow compared to a more typical dim sum restaurant. This one lacks dim sum carts which means you have to order your up to 30 minutes in advance to give the kitchen time to make your order. Their signature dim sum needs improvement as it tasted more like cumin. My typical dim sum favorites are pork & shrimp and shrimp dumplings. Theirs met my minimum taste bud requirements. Their fried rice and LoMein need improvement as both missed the mark. I enjoyed their Piggy Milk Buns as I finished my meal but they tasted more like palate cleanser than dessert. 2 stars for my initial experience here. They're fairly new so I'll give them a couple months to improve.

Came to Luscious Dumplings after reading all the great reviews online. We came on a Sunday afternoon and it was quite crowded. The ambience was busy. The service provider was great. We had scallion pancakes which were delicious. The pork soup dumplings that I had or some of the best I've ever had. The vegetable dumplings were also great. I'm glad San Antonio finally has a good dumpling place. Highly recommend coming here.

2nd time coming to this spot and they never disappoint. I've been recommending this place as much as I humanly can
