Located at the streets between the movie theaters and Station 16, is this wonderful little spot. Not considered full dim sum or Chinese, there's enough good stuff on this menu. Sunday lunch was busy. We were seated quickly but service was backed up. You can tell staff was overwhelmed and people were impatient. We ordered on the online website for our table B2. Started with the scallion noodles, fried chicken, pan fried dumplings, hot and sour soup, brussel sprouts, and vegetarian spring rolls. The gal server was so busy and apologetic although we didn't get our drinks or water refills, I hope this place thrives and stays. Noodles were perfectly chewy and salty in a good way. The fried chicken was extra crunchy and the hot and sour soup never made it however she comped it and packed for us to go. Give this place a try. read more

We found Dumpling Hours on yelp after making the trip to Brentwood to pick cherries from San Jose. We were skeptical about this place since were spoiled from having such good dumplings in sj and Cupertino. We were pleasantly surprised! We ordered pork potstickers, pork XLB, sesame and chili wontons, and pan fried pork buns. The vegetarian springrolls were complimentary! The skins on the dumplings were really thin with a good bite. Overall flavors were mild and pretty good! If we are ever in the area again we would skip on the sesame and chili dumplings- we weren't w fan of how peanutbuttery it was. My favorites were the regular pork XLB and pan fried pork buns- they pack a lot of soup in them! Our waitress was extremely kind and overall made us smile by how warm she was. Great place and would come again! read more

We went cherry picking in Brentwood. We didn't know the eateries in the area. We came across a small Chinese resto, Dumpling Hours. Being exposed to great Chinese foods in the Oakland and San Francisco area, this dumpling house was actually very good. We had their pan fried potstickers, hot and sour soup and Dan Dan sesame dry paste noods. The noods were freshly made. Go try Dumpling Hours if you live here or are passing through. You won't regret it! read more

Omg! This is the best place EVER. I cannot wait for a location to open near me. I loved every single item we ordered. We started off with the cucumber salad. We got one of everything to taste. However, my favorite dumpling was the pork one. I really did enjoy the food, and I couldn't stop eating even when I was sooooo full. The location in Berkeley is scheduled to open soon (I think) and honestly. I can't wait! Get a little bit of everything so you won't feel like you missed out. We also got the wonton soup, but really you can do without since there's so many options with the dumplings. read more

My new favorite restaurant! Had to be in Antioch for business and tried this place with a friend. I have been there twice now and can't wait to go back! The service is fast and friendly and the food is unbelievably delicious and the presentation is great. Both times I went I tried different things and took recommendations from the server. The cucumber salad is so refreshing, the shumai is tasty, the green onion pancakes are delicious, all the xiao long bao on the menu is amazing and the juicy pan-fried pork buns are out of this world! They have a Chinese jasmine beer that is incredibly good! Can't recommend it enough! read more

Starting off with the GREAT Juicy Pan Fried Dumplings . They legit EXPLODE flavor in your mouth. Hands down the best thing I've had here. I do love their green beans but $15 is too steep for me considering I can buy a whole bag and do this at home for cheap. I understand the dumplings being expensive bc they're hand made, but we got weird peanut butter on our pork wontons w/ Red Chili sauce . It didn't even taste or feel like peanut sauce, just peanut butter. The problem with that is it wasn't even supposed to be on there according to the food item description. This is a really huge deal for people with peanut allergies and could be dangerous if someone just put peanut butter in random dishes. Overall, I'm sure there's other tasty dishes here, but it's out of my price range for this type of food. read more

Ordered a variety of dim sum from DoorDash and it didn't disappoint. Favorite item was beef XLB but also really enjoyed the shrimp dumplings. Bbq pork buns were a little bready but I do find that to be most often the case in general. Not my top choice for dim sum in the area but a very solid option when my #1 is closed. Would like to return for dine in. read more

We were in the mood for Chinese food, but didn't want the typical generic stuff. We had heard good things about Dumpling Hours so decided to give them a try. We were wary of the menu items because of our unfamiliarity with much of the terminology, but the server was very helpful and friendly and helped us make our choices. The steamed Hot & Spicy Pork Xiao Long Bao and was delicious! Very delicate and crazy with flavor! The Juicy Pan Fried Pork Buns were also amazing! Not what I imagined, so I was totally impressed with the flavor and texture. A word of warning, these came to our table very hot, so let them cool a little before taking a bite, otherwise, you might squirt the hot juices on yourself (or neighbor!) Also got the Dan Dan Sesame Paste Dry Noodles, which was good but not what we were expecting. Next time we'll focus on the dumplings Dumpling Hours is a great addition to the food choices in Brentwood, something we really need out here. Everything we had tasted fresh and flavorful! The decor is unique and well done and cleanliness seems to be a focus. If you want to try something different and fun, give them a try! read more

Very good. We loved the dumplings and enjoyed the Dan Dan noodles. Service was quick. We will return

Thai iced tea was good...the bean curd noodles were yummy and unique, we would recommend adding sprouts. The red bean pancakes were yummy but also a little too hard. The spring rolls were on the house and fairly good! The steamed dumpling rolls were above average. The service was great and friendly. read more

Hidden amongst The Shops in Brentwood is the best kept secret in Contra Costa. The folks at Dumpling Hours craft the most authentic of authentic soup dumplings (小籠包 or XLB). Scalding and bursting with pork flavor soup in a finely molded, not too thin or thick, casing. A heft ball of pork and veggies. Everything fresh and working harmoniously. One cannot find them as good as Dumpling Hours (or its sister restaurant in San Francisco) outside of Shanghai or Taipei. Not in New York. Or LA. It's right here, and it's in our backyards. Also, the dumplings and fried dumplings were just as thoughtfully prepared as the XLB. Wings were crunchy and packing umami. Jellyfish and tofu skin salad were refreshing. Only thing lacking was the braised beef noodle soup, which was devoid of flavor. That's all right, as everything else was flawless. read more

Had a lunch here to see what the food was like. The food was amazing and was delicious. Ordered Xiao Long Bao, BBQ steamed buns, and Shui Mai. I loved how the food was prepared and served. Flavors were great and had enough flavor to fulfill my appetite. The service was great and direct. Our server was attentive to my needs and always checked in if everything was going well. Would definitely recommend this place again if in the Streets of Brentwood. read more

We had fantastic dumplings! They seated us promptly and were attentive. Can't wait to return and try out more food!

We came to this restaurant after strawberry picking to have lunch and ordered some pork buns and xiao long bao. Pork buns came really quickly but we are not fan of it because its skin is not crispy at all. Xiao long bao came really slow but it's really good and one of the best ones I have ever had. The service is a bit on the slow side that day and at the end we have to go to the front desk to checkout. read more

We need to grab lunch and it needed to be delicious. Who doesn't love a good dumpling? Visiting family and was on Yelp just looking for anything that caught my eye. This place did just that. Then I read some reviews and drooled over photos! Came on a Thursday after 1. Was greeted and seated upon entering. Place had a few patrons. Music overhead was light and there is a huge tv on one end of the room that was set to the Lifetime channel. We were seated at a half booth table for 4. There were 3 of us. One of us is vegetarian so in searching on Yelp that was one of the pre-req's...some vegetarian options. We ordered the following: For apps: 1. Fried spring rolls (vegetarian): did what it needed to. Crunchy, fresh ingredients and paired with a side of sweet and sour for dipping pleasure. 2. Pork wontons: These were cute delicious pouches of pork meatballs fried in a wonton wrapper. 3. Cucumber and garlic: Refreshing and always a must! Great palate cleanser. For hunger quenching: 1. Pork XLB (8 pc): juicy, oh so JUICY! Delicious! 2. Vegetarian dumpling (8 pc): filling was delicious. Great ratio of all the things you want stuffed in a veggie dumpling. 3. Pan Fried Pork Bun: these reminded me of christmas stockings. I don't know why. But these suckers retain their heat so beware! Definitely a scorcher. 4. Crab and Shrimp XLB (4 pc): these were substantially bigger than the pork XLB but delicious nonetheless. 5. Garlic Green beans: crispy and vibrant in collar. Garlicky delicious! 6. Crispy Honey Chicken Wings: batter was oh so crispy and did not weigh the chicken down. That honey sauce was sticky and complimentary to the deep frying. So when we visited there was a promo that if you ordered $75 worth of food you were gifted an order of their Crispy Honey Chicken Wings. Such a delicious gift! Customer service was wonderful. Waitress kept out water glasses filled and checked on us a couple times. The only thing disappointing is the lack of sweets or desserts. The closest thing on their menu to a dessert was a pancake with red bean paste. Please add some desserts to your menu..pretty please.... We'll be back! read more

Great dumpling place! Their xao long pao comes in 4 or 8. Price for 8 ranges about $15, highly recommend their spicy edition. The cucumber salad was so flavorful and crunchy. I also tried the Dan Dan noodles with pork which is a sesame sauce. Chicken wings is also good and they have a special if you spend more than $60 dollars, you get a free order of their crispy chicken wings. Service was good, my party came in right when they open. They also have an option to order online on your phone. It's pretty quiet inside and service is attentive. read more
