"Boiled dumplings rule all at Yuanbao Jiaozi (or at least about 75% of the menu). The tiny Chinese spot in the Sunset is folding SF’s best versions, each with meat and vegetable fillings that leave a trail of salty-sweet juice with every bite. Your only agenda item while you’re here: clear as many plates of dumplings (14 per order) as possible. Once you’ve polished off the entire spread, make a good decision for your future self and swing by the freezer in the back for a bag to take home." - julia chen 1, lani conway, patrick wong, ricky rodriguez
"Sometimes you just need to tear your eyes away from a screen, get out of the house in the middle of the day, and clear a plate of made-to-order dumplings. Beeline to Yuanbao Jiaozi in the Sunset. The casual spot has a menu made up of about 75% dumplings, all stuffed with napa cabbage and pork, chicken and corn, or mushroom and fish. You’ll finish off the order of 14 in less time than it takes to find a parking spot on Irving." - julia chen 1, patrick wong, ricky rodriguez
"A perennial Sunset favorite, this dumpling shop on Irving Street once held an “if you know you know” reputation. No longer, as the popularity of its expertly made dumplings with fillings like napa cabbage and pork exploded into the public arena. It was only a matter of time before legions arrived for a seat at this simple shop. Try the beef noodle soup if an array of dumplings won’t suffice." - Lena Park
"Come to this Sunset spot when you can only trust yourself to make one more decision for the day. All you have to do is pick what kind of boiled dumplings you want to eat while you sit back and remind yourself that it’s not your fault that you fell victim to one of those sophisticated telemarketers." - julia chen 1, patrick wong
