Dumpling Story - Reviews

Having grown up in Shanghai for 17 years, I can confidently say the dumplings here rival, if not surpass, the ones I had there. It was an amazing experience.

My experience at the restaurant was fantastic! I enjoyed the amazing dim sum, and was particularly pleased with the great non-pork options available. The red bean pancakes were also amazing.

My experience at this restaurant was thoroughly enjoyable, despite bordering on pricey. The XLB were bigger than I expected, and the food was delicious. The vibe was really nice, and we experienced no wait on a Wednesday night, even though the place was still crowded. The service and food were both rated a perfect 5, contributing to a great atmosphere.

My experience at the restaurant was very positive. I tried the veggie steamed dumplings and the pan fried vegetable baos, which were both very tasty. The service was quick, and the overall vibes were nice.

I stopped in for lunch while in the City, drawn by the restaurant's good reviews and our craving for dumplings. We were not disappointed! The service was great, and the menu was easy to read and make choices. We appreciated the flexibility to order 4 or 8 dumplings and the choice between steamed or pan-fried. The bao arrived steaming hot in a basket. It was excellent food! We will definitely be back next time we are in the Bay Area.

My experience at this restaurant was fantastic, especially with their food. The pan-fried buns were a standout favorite, with an amazing crispy and hot base and just the right amount of dough. The service and atmosphere were also excellent, both receiving a perfect 5/5 rating.

My experience at this restaurant was pretty much flawless. While I've had better tasting xiao long bao and dumplings, the ones here are well-made and still top tier. The service was excellent, and the atmosphere was also a perfect 5/5. It's a great place for dinner, with a price point of $20–30 per person and no wait time.

We dined in for a late lunch as a family of three. The Yelp waitlist indicated a 10-20 minute wait, and we were surprised to receive a text 5 minutes later. The food came out hot and fresh. We ordered the Juicy Pork Bao, Pork Xiao Long Bao, Zha Jiang House Special Bean Paste with Mince Pork, Boiled Pork and Chive Dumplings, and Fried Tofu. While there is no separate kids menu, our thirteen-month-old loved his food so much that he stayed in his high chair for the duration of the meal. Highly recommend!

I was absolutely blown away by the flavors at this restaurant! The pan-fried pork bao and beef bao were incredible and a total must-try. They were also much bigger than bao I've had elsewhere. The cucumber salad was fresh and delicious. They served a big pot of tea, which was perfect for sharing. Honestly, it was one of the tastiest dinners we've had in a while, and we'll definitely be coming back again and again! The staff was also really nice and friendly!

My experience at this restaurant was incredibly positive. It's easy to get to from transit stops, making it very accessible. The service was incredibly tasty and fast. I particularly enjoyed the soup beef dumpling and pork pan fried, which were incredible. The staff were super fast to take care of us and were such nice staff. The atmosphere was also rated highly.
