Pork Wontons in Chili Oil Peanut Sauce, Pork Soup Dumplings, Pork Potsticker
Brooke G.

Freshly cooked, delicious dumplings if you're craving classic dumplings or bao with quick service. So yummy!

Chicken Soup Dumplings
Hanay W.

Dumpling district is a tiny restaurant beside the H mart, with a Kung Fu Boba Tea inside of it. The service was nice and quick. I ordered the chicken soup dumplings which were fresh & flavorful! I wish they had more soup in them, but it was mainly filling. I would definitely come back and try their other dumpling flavors!

Rainbow Soup Dumplings
Alan H.

We ordered two orders of the rainbow soup dumplings to get a taste of all they had to offer. Our favorite were the crab and pork and truffle soup dumplings. The qualities of the soup and the dumpling skin were A+. None of dumplings broke upon presentation, super important! Very flavorful and almost burned my tongue so be careful as the food was made to order and super fresh! This is one of those no frills casual eateries with exceptional food quality. Don't let the rough exterior dissuade you from trying these amazing soup dumplings. Definitely hit my craving for soup dumplings without breaking the bank especially in this economy.

Stir-Fry Noodles

I like that it's a shared space with KungFu Tea so that you can enjoy some boba tea with your meal! The soup dumplings were underwhelming. There wasn't any soup really. Maybe we got a bad batch but there were 3 of us and we each got a rainbow dumpling order to try all of the flavors. Aside from the lack of soup, my favorite filling was the truffle one. Also ironic that everything else we got was better than the soup dumplings (what the place is known).

You can watch the food being prepared behind a glass window. The Soup Dumplings are hot and flavorful. The dumpling skins have the right amount of chewiness. There are many other items on the menu. The Scallion pancakes, Spicy Tofu, and General Bob's Chicken were favorites. The room is large and simple. BRING CASH - there is a 10% service charge for credit card payments.

We came on a Friday night, and had to wait about 30 minutes for seating. The dining area is basically wooden chairs and tables. Not much ambiance, but that's not why you come here. We ordered scallion pancakes, soup dumplings, eggplant with basil, and noodles with chicken. I never had scallion pancakes. Nothing I would order again. I have nothing to compare, but I assume they're good. The dumplings were fantastic. The eggplant, which comes in three varieties, appeared to be a popular item with other guests. I guess it was good. I'm not a fan of saucy food. The noodles were fantastic. I feel like we ordered wrong, although my girlfriend picked everything except the noodles. This is not a place to visit if you're looking to lose weight. The hard sugar in the eggplant alone was more than I consume in two months. I'm probably not in the best position to rate our dinner as I avoid carbs and sugar. If I were to come back, I'd stick the noodles and revisit the menu to see if there is a solid chicken option. I came here hungry and left hungry as the food was not filling, and the sugar content sent my system into a bit of a shock. Nonetheless, if this cuisine is your thing, you won't be disappointed.

Plenty of other options were available for when I get my tolerance for spicy food back, as the place leans Szechuan. Takeout was an efficient process even though they did not take online payments; I just paid when I got there. The location is a bit past the airport, which is probably a better place to look for Chinese food than most of downtown DC.

You get good food at reasonable prices. Some of my favorites include Crispy Shredded Beef in Spicy Sauce, Fried Chicken Nuggets with Basil (a Taiwanese native favorite), and Wrinkled String Beans. Crispy Shrimp with Honey Walnuts is also really good. They offer a wide variety from stir-fries and noodle dishes to seafood, pork, beef, and vegetarian/vegan-friendly options. The kitchen is very accommodating. If you want milder spice, less oil, or custom tweaks, they seem pretty open to it. Because it's not one of those fancy places, the vibe stays relaxed and unpretentious, which I personally like. It's nice for families, friends, or a simple meal out without fuss. I also like to order take-out. :)

Very attentive service on a Saturday morning. The sound of Chinese pop music plays quietly in the…read morebackground just enough you can still hear the lyrics but also the conversation from nearby tables. The dining area is one room, from what I could see, but very clean. You can see the kitchen where there are stacks of steamer baskets used for the soup basket. Some table had printed drinks menu but we got a handwritten one. All the menus are laminated and you're given a whiteboard marker to mark what you would like to order. We ordered some appetizers/snacks along with soup dumplings and the crispy coconut shrimp balls. Shortly after ordering, the side dishes and appetizers appeared. The dough sticks were a simple beige food for the child who happily munched on it. It's a fried dough sticks that didn't seem too greasy. Each half can still break into two smaller sticks for smaller bites. Traditionally it's paired with soy milk but we had already ordered a lot of food. The cucumber garlic salad was crispy, flavorful, and slightly sweet. Little threads of carrot added a bit of textural difference and color. The garlic provided a small bite without overpowering the fish. It's a kid-friendly dish as long as they are okay with cilantro! This is a must order. The scallion pancake with beef with also a huge hit. It's crispy and flaky (but not crumbly) and it's served with slices of beef, what appeared to be some sweet sauce (hoisin maybe?) and thinly shredded scallions. It was similar to Peking Duck but with a scallion pancake and beef instead of the thin pancake and duck. The thinly shredded scallions add a bit of a kick and freshness that counteracts the oil from the scallion pancake. The coconut-crispy shrimp balls were a huge hit. This dish was whole, headless, fried shrimp tossed in a sweet sauce then dusted with shredded coconut, served with some slices of pineapple. It reminded us a bit of mayo-shrimp dishes but with coconut. An order of the chicken soup dumplings were placed just because most of the soup dumplings contain pork. It was recommended over the other non pork shrimp and zucchini dumplings. They don't seem very hot until you get your first big bite. Took a nibble, drank some of the broth, and then with a bigger bite realized there was still more broth! Ginger, soy sauce, and chili crisp/oil is available on the table, but the juicy soup dumplings were perfect on their own. The steamer of rainbow dumplings was also quickly devoured with the black truffle (pork), mala spicy pork, and shrimp/zucchini being the favorites. Each soup dumplings had its own unique taste. Upon hearing the shrimp/zucchini was liked because it was refreshing, an order of those were also placed. Once they arrived, I had to agree they were very good. They have a different taste and texture and even though I thought the chicken was good, I found myself quickly devouring the steaming soup dumplings. While we ate, our drinks were constantly refilled and we were asked if we needed anything, even ginger slices. With the clean, prompt, service that comes along with delicious foods, we're bound to come back to try the other foods!

The rice cakes and the salty sticky rice roll are pretty good. My wife was craving the chicken and broccoli w/ brown sauce. I was not a fan of this dish. The broccoli tasted bitter and the chicken seemed low quality. I wouldn't get this dish again. The noodles with scallion sauce was good. The noodles stuck together and the scallions in the dish were bitter, but the taste was decent. I can't fully score a place based on delivery, but if you're in the mood for Shanghainese cuisine, this place isn't a bad option.

There's plenty of parking in the lot just outside from the restaurant. Seats around 20 mostly at tables for four, with probably 20 more tables in the attached tea-house next door. We arrived in the early afternoon on a Friday, and there were only two or three other full tables. We ordered from a touch-screen by the register at the back counter. Food was served in take-out containers, and looked fabulous. We asked for plates, and collected up our chopsticks and forks and sauces and napkins by the register. We got the 6-variety "rainbow" soup dumplings, a sticky-rice roll, and a cucumber salad. We got a soda, and it would have been easy to get tea from the attached next-door tea-house. Salad was fresh and flavorful and generous with a bright cilantro dressing. Every dumpling was hot and juicy and tender, with good flavor. We felt that fillings were good, but not extraordinary. The "crab and pork" and "truffles and pork" dumplings were predominantly pork. The sticky-rice roll was dense and lightly flavored, nice with soy and vinegar sauce. And there's more appetizers and cantonese-style dishes available. This place is ultra-casual, almost fast-food in style, and better than fast-food in food flavor and quality.
