The food is amazing! The best soup dumplings ever. Friendly staff and fast service. Can't recommend enough.

I absolutely love the pork soup dumplings! Also, the pork buns are fantastic. If you're looking for a different cool lunch spot to go with your friends, I would highly suggest trying it out. Start off with some green onion pancakes, cream cheese wontons, and then get a few different types of dumplings for everybody to share. The portions are generous clearly the dumplings are fresh and hand maid. Extremely authentic, and I think the best dumplings in town. I will warn you that the spicy beef soup will set your world on fire! Too spicy for me, but if that's what you're going for it is delicious! Enjoy! read more

The first thing you noticed is the beautiful interior. Absolutely well done. Next is the simple menus which even explains how to eat bao dumplings. There are also several house Asian fried rice, chow mein, and Szechuan dishes. We had the Red Oil Wantons appetizer and the Pork Bao and the Shrimp Xiao Long Bao. One note before the food review. The table was sticky. Pardon the pun, but I'm a stickler for clean tables and floors. My rule of thumb is if a restaurant is willing to have a not so nice dining area, imagine what the kitchen is like. Everything looked clean, except the tactile table. The did clean again upon request. Very friendly staff. The Red Oil Wonton were delicious. Well spiced with only what can described as a tiny meatball inside the soft wanton. The stuffed wanton are worth a trip back. Xiao Long Bao is a filled dumpling with soup in it. You put the dumpling in a spoon, take a small bite or poke it with a chopstick, then eat. The broth on the bao was great. Very flavorful as you "popped" the bao and drank it (they supply a big spoon). Other than the logistical challenge of using chopsticks and a large spoon, very tasty broth and stuffing. Special mention for the shrimp broth. Unusual taste. Some in Louisiana may think it's a bit "off" but I really didn't think so. It reminded me of those little dry shrimp they used to sell next to the cash registers at grocers, lol. Just a different shrimp taste. Overall, worth a return trip. Or a visit for something different. On Siegan Lane. $$ read more

The best takeout I've had! We placed an order for steamed pork Bao buns, pan fried chicken dumplings, and the red oil wontons. When we picked it up, they gave us the cutest to go bag and everything was packed so nicely. The food was delicious. My favorite was the steamed pork Bao buns and the red oil wontons. The Bao buns were decent size and packed full of flavor. I couldn't believe that it was all homemade. The red oil wontons were a tad bit spicy, but we ate those so fast. The pan fried chicken dumplings weren't bad, I just wish I got them steamed over pan fried. I really like how they asked you how you would like everything cooked. When we went inside to pick up, the decor was amazing! So unique. read more

This is my new spot for great food. I keep coming back for the food. Have to start off with the fried cream cheese wontons, egg rolls and the vegetable rice. Food is always fresh, hot and taste great. Must try a pot of hot teas Jasmine Green and Peach Oolong. Great! The service is good I just had to make sure the waitress knew had a food allergy to peas. The restaurant is always clean and peaceful. read more

Dumpling and Bao - Siegen Ln - Vegetable fried rice with no egg - Dim Sum Near Me - Baton Rouge, Louisiana

Notes: 1) been here once Pros: 1) decent service 2) ambiance is good Cons: 1) food looked good but it was overall average. Got the fried dumpling which was raw on one side. Rating: 2/5 I think the biggest issue here is the food. The consistency and taste overall was not there. The best thing I had was the shumai. Most other foods were average. The look of the food was good. The bao of the custard one differed from the others and tasted very good. It is odd that this bao and the others were so different, almost as if it was made by a different person. I didn't get to see much service but it was great when I entered the establishment. The ambiance looks nice as well. Overall: a good place but needs time to find a good flow. Will give a low review now mainly because the taste was not there and the rawness of one of the dumplings. Foods: 1) shumai: the best thing here 5/5 would recommend 2) scallion pancake: 4/5, the sauce was too salty 3) fried pork dumplings: 0/5 raw dough, salty interior 4) pork and chicken xiao long bao: 2.5/5, not enough soup and taste was mainly salt and the respective meat 5) crawfish and pork bao: 2/5, filling did not go with the sweeter and spicier outside. The filling tasted like crawfish but seasoned very oddly. 6) red oil wontons: 2/5, tasted like frozen wontons that were all cooked together in a pan of red oil 7) fried rice: 4/5 pretty good but no taste of umami 8) mapo tofu: 4/5, well seasoned and spicy 9) sesame balls: 4.5/5, overall too chewy and not much filling but taste was good. Would recommend. 10) custard bao: 4.5/5, not a lot of filling and a lot of bread but taste was good. Would recommend. read more

Have been here twice and haven't been disappointed! The atmosphere and decorations are so creative and great to just look at while eating. The soup dumplings are the main staple and the chicken are so good with plenty of soup. They added the bbq pork bao to the menu which are now my favorites. Service is quick and the staff is very friendly. Everything is filling and the restaurant is great for groups to go and have a dumpling kind of day read more

We checked out Dumpling and Bao recently, and the place is honestly beautiful. The vibe and decor really capture some cool historical Chinese elements, which made the whole experience feel special. The food was kind of hit or miss. We got the beef noodle soup extra spicy, but it came out pretty mild and didn't have much flavor as well and the beef was very chewy. The chef's spicy beef was about the same, not much heat or depth to it. The soup dumplings, both chicken and pork, were a bit disappointing too, since they didn't have the broth inside like they're supposed to, and the flavor was off. On the bright side, the pan-fried pork dumplings were amazing. They were crispy, juicy, and full of flavor. The spicy cucumber was refreshing, the bang bang shrimp was really good, and the scallion pancake was decent. Our server Alaysia, was wonderful. She was friendly, attentive, and made sure we had everything we needed. The service and atmosphere were both great. A few dishes really stood out, but overall, the food could use a little more spice and flavor to match how great the place looks and feels. Oh there was a mouthwash dispenser in the bathroom, which I found convenient. read more

I can't wait to go back here and get different dishes. We got a bunch our first time. DEF chicken soup dumplings were my favorite. Service was good, their sodas were on point. I know it's weird but if a restaurant can't get the soda right, it makes me super suspish of the food. read more

I'd been hearing so many great things about this new spot that I had to try for myself. The food was delicious, service was amazing, very swift, and staff were friendly. This is a great place for luncheons, date night, and more! I got the spicy beef noodle soup, chicken dumplings, bang bang shrimp, cream cheese wontons, peach oolong tea pot, and other items like the cucumber salad. All of the food was between a 8/10-10/10. I personally didn't like the type of noodles used and felt they were slightly undercooked but the broth and spices make up for the noodle soup. Great dish for anyone with a cold, congestion, cough, recovering for lost of taste , etc. The tea was great! I just wished they had honey to sweeten it to take it to the next level. My only other complaint about the visit is that my sister ordered the wrong dumpling type and was told she still had to keep/pay for the since they had already been made. Great spot overall! read more

The decor and atmosphere are wonderful, the food is both reasonably priced and INCREDIBLY FLAVORFUL!! A lady told us on the way in that it was so delicious and we were about to enjoy our meal and she was 100% correct. Our server Yojan was incredibly sweet and attentive and made great suggestions! We loved the pork Xiao long bao and red chili wontons the best. Didn't take any pictures because we beasted it sorry. read more

First time and first meal in Baton Rogue, I know I strayed from the traditional fare of the city but I do love Bao. I believe this place is brand new as there as beer and wine on the menu but you could not order it bc they didn't have their liquor license yet. The restaurant was clean and inviting. Service as prompt and friendly. The food was very good and we did get the crawfish bao (nod to the local specialties). Check it out if you're in town. read more

Excellent! Great service, delicious food and reasonably priced. We enjoyed our meal. Everything came out quickly and super fresh. Nice fast casual atmosphere. The dumplings were very good, but the fried rice was phenomenal. It has a slight smokiness and filled with lots of shrimp. I have visited twice and can't wait to return. Kudos. read more

I am writing this as one week from soft opening. The decoration and ambiance of the restaurant is quite cute. The appetizers we got was cucumber, scallion pancake, and bambam shrimp and they were all good. The dumplings are okay. The pork pan friend dumpling was the best. However the Xiaolingbao did not live up to the expectation. The chicken xiaolongbao was very dry and did not have any soup. The pork xiaolongbao was a slightly sour and the meat tasted off and slightly old. My friend came in soft opening and said it tasted much better back then. Thankfully the management exchanged that but the inconsistency is a problem. My rice was also stale. The spicy is not too spicy even if I asked to make it extra spicy. The service was spectacular and Alaysia was amazing! read more

Finally got to this spot and was so pleased that it lived up to the hype. It is a beautiful but small sit down/full service restaurant. Our waiter, Ryan?, was phenomenal. The food was great, especially the red chile oil dumplings. My daughter tore up her soup dumplings and boa. We didn't try to regular dumplings but will next time. read more

Initial thoughts as soon as we walked in was, WOW, this place is beautiful with their decorations and atmosphere. Service was perfect. Everyone was very nice and it was very quick. We ordered the scallion pancakes, pork soup dumplings, chicken steamed dumplings, spicy beef noodle soup, and vegetable noodle soup. Everything was delicious. The only issue was the spicy beef noodle soup didn't really taste spicy at all. But other than that, it was perfect. Will most definitely be returning. read more

My favorite thing about Dumpling and Bao was the ambiance. I loved all the dumpling steamers on the wall and all of the decorations on the ceiling too. It was super cool. The food was good. I would give it a 8/10. I had the fried shrimp appetizer (9/10), chicken dumplings (8/10), hot green tea which came in a black pot (10/10), and their spicy beef soup (8/10). The soup was good but I would have preferred if it was more seasoned. The service was good too. I had no issues at all. read more

For the amazing service, the food was incredibly mid. Our host was extremely attentive, friendly and nice! The pork soup dumplings had that taste when you don't cleanse the pork before cooking it, and the noodle dish was made from instant noodles. If you had that instant noodle before, it's undeniably the same noodle but without the flavor packets. They also use the box to hold the sauce containers for to-go orders which solved the mystery for us. Overall great service but wouldn't come back again. read more

The place was packed at lunchtime during the week. I ordered the fried pork dumplings and beef soup. The soup didn't have the flavor I was hoping for and the noodles were harder than I'm used to. The dumpling was delish. I regret not getting steamed dumplings. The ambiance felt like a fast food open space. The lady cleaning the tables used fabuloso cleaner which had a strong smell. I didn't care for smelling that while eating. read more

My mom has been here 2 times before and said it was great. So I thought I'd try it out with her. She said she was very disappointed and said it wasn't the same as it had been. We got: Beef scallion pancakes - these were pretty good, but I'm almost certain they were supposed to come with a dipping sauce and they did not. So they were sort of dry. Bang bang shrimp - these were the best thing we got and I'd still give a 4/5. The sauce was just plopped on top instead of them being tossed in the sauce. Chicken chow mein - dry and needed some sort of sauce Pork soup dumplings - the biggest disappointment of the meal. The dumplings got stuck to the bottom and every time we tried to lift it up they would break and the soup would fall out. It was a mess. The soup also had the gelatin that comes off of meat when it's being cooked and it sort of grossed me out. Unfortunately won't be returning read more

Not impressed at all! Suggest you replace your worn and cracked booth seating! And... a credit card service charge after spending $56! So sad! Doubt this place will make it! Thumbs down experience. read more

The place itself is beautiful and the staff were nice and kind. The food however was lackluster. The dumplings were alright but the spicy beef noodles were nasty and completely unflavored. I guess I should have known when the broth was to me a little too light. It just seemed like water mixed with chilli oil. All the food reviews talked so well about the quality of the food and I'm disappointed that I wasted my money on this. Just stick to dumplings and the fried rice if you decide to go. read more
