There's just so much good food on Convoy St. my friends and I were looking forward to a hearty meal and we're recommended this spot. We got the: XLB - Plenty of broth and the right amount of pork filling. Dumpling skin was nice and thin. Shrimp pork dumpling - Quite flavorful with good filling and shrimp/pork ratio. Beef noodle soup - plenty of beef and noodles. The beef was tender and nicely seasoned. Wonton soup - this soup was refreshing to cut all the grease. There were decent sized tasty wontons. Stir fried garlic green beans - for some reason this wasn't on the menu, but when I asked about it, they said they could just make it for us. Honey walnut shrimp - Very nostalgic. Plenty of shrimp and candied walnuts, my favorite of the meal! It was quite a busy night with customers coming in and out. I don't ever expect superb service at these restaurants. It was a good and delicious experience overall. read more

This definitely seems like the go-to spot for dumplings in San Diego! I stopped by on a Friday night and the place was absolutely packed. The decor is honestly one of the highlights, it's got this cool, atmospheric mashup of Hong Kong street food vibes and an old-school Shanghai saloon. The bar area was super lively, full of people grabbing drinks and Chinese food, which gave the whole place a great energy. As for the food, we mostly came for the Xiao Long Bao (soup dumplings), but they were unfortunately a bit of a letdown. The meat filling wasn't very flavorful and the texture felt pretty rubbery. On the bright side, the Fried Rice was solid and hit the spot. We also tried the Kung Pao Chicken, but it felt more like the "old-school Chinatown" style I remember as a kid as it's very heavy on the sweet fried bean paste and a bit too sugary for my taste, rather than being authentic Chinese. The service was impressively swift; even with the crowd, our dishes came out fast. However, parking was a total headache, and honestly, the total cost felt a bit steep just for a casual meal. Great for the vibe and a quick drink, but the dumplings might not be the main event here. read more

Went here to catch up with a friend, and while the restaurant's decorations and ambiance are nice, the food was pretty lacking. Service was average, they pretty much did the bare minimum, but they were still friendly. The xiao long bao wasn't terrible, but for a place called dumpling inn, I would expect it to be the star of the show, but instead we just got some very average tasting XLB. We were able to ask for sauteed green beans even though it wasn't directly on the menu, but they were pretty good. The cashew chicken was a little salty, and it had too many other things (cashews and maybe some random radish?) in it compared to chicken. Overall, this place was fine, but it wasn't anything I'd go out of my way to go to again. read more

Service was really quick and the hostess and server were both welcoming. Wish I got our server's name as she was sweet and fun. The food is decent. It was a spur of the moment decision to come here, so I think what we ordered was not bad. The chow mein was flavorful and the walnut shrimp tasted extremely fresh. I wish they gave more broccoli, but overall it was a solid 9/10. The veggie egg rolls were a bit meh, sort of an item that has potential to be really delicious if it had a bit more going on but cabbage and noodles. The interior hasn't changed over the years which I like. It's reminiscent of old times for sure. I remember the remodel, so it's nice that the structure is holding up nice. Prices of the dishes were incredibly fair. Our total was $42. Which for 2 entrees and an appetizer for 2 people is impressive in 2026. Much better than making all this at home. We didn't actually try the dumplings, but perhaps next time. read more

We had a nice experience dining here recently . The restaurant aesthetic is nice and clean . The service was not the best , but it was good enough. The parking lot is small in front of the restaurant. If you can manage to find a spot there it's free for 2 hours. They also have a parking garage in the back . We paid $8 for up to 3 hours , I highly recommend their pork and shrimp wontons. read more

Since I just reviewed the Shanghai Saloon side of things I should really give credit to Dumpling Inn, the force behind the food that you enjoy while Shanghai Saloon is the fuel behind the fire poured into your glass. You can check out my Shanghai Saloon review to cover the bar area but when it comes to the food, get the soup dumplings, they're delicious and they will not let you down. If for some weird reason they do, order another drink and you'll be just fine. read more

Parking in the lot is free the first 2 hours. The parking structure in the back is not free. When we sat down, I was not impress with their menu. I expected more dumplings for their name, Dumpling Inn. The food mainly fell under drinking food. The food came out fast and I was surprised on the taste and quality. They have a lunch menu. Pickled cucumbers - to my surprised, they were not sour, pickled or taste like vinegar. Seasoning was light and refreshing. Definitely not with dark sauce. Honey glazed shrimp - meant to order honey walnut shrimp but this was our favorite. Big battered shrimp with a bit of sweet and chili sauce. Crispy pan fried noodles- the description said crispy noodles. Wrong. I was expecting pan fried crispy noodles instead it's the birds nest. The noodles did not taste stale, tons of veggies with very light brown sauce. A but bland but better than salty. Soup dumplings - The wrappings were thin, not much liquid, so it wasn't juicy but the pork was soft and semi bland. I'm okay with that once you dip. Not the best but not the worst. This place has been around for a very long time. Glad we finally stopped in but it'll be our last as there are so many others with the same concept to try. 3.5 round to 4. read more

I met up with some friends on a Thursday evening for a dumpling-filled dinner. Though it was a week night, the parking lot was filled and cars were circling the lot. However, I learned that there is a side lot where customers can park for two hours free. There is also a paid parking structure next to the lot. After securing my free parking spot, we walked into the restaurant. We were greeted readily and seated right away. It was 7PM and there were several open tables. Service was fast. We were offered drinks and shared a pot of tea. They had only jasmine, which isn't my favorite, but it was OK for what it was. I had a cocktail called Shanghai Champagne, which was a bit of a twist on a mimosa with Champagne, Lillet, lemon, honey, and grapefruit liquor. It was surprisingly good. We shared three different types of dumplings. We had the soup dumplings which were filled with pork. We had the steamed veggie dumplings and then fried beef curry dumplings. The first two were very good. They were delicate with lots of flavor. I didn't care much for the beef curry dumplings, as they were just too fried and I didn't taste much curry. We also shared the pickled radish, which was simple but refreshing. Finally, we shared the Kung Pao Chicken. It also was served fresh and hot with a lot of flavor. The ambiance was simple and not fancy. The restaurant considers itself a saloon, but it is really a restaurant that has a small, but decent bar. We spent time at the end of dinner chatting and catching up, so we were there until close, which was 9PM. It is not a late night spot for sure. All in all, Dumpling Inn is a simple, but good spot to enjoy dumplings and cocktails at the same place. I would return. read more

We got here early - a little after 4pm when they open to beat the crowd. We ordered 4 items for 3 of us: pork fried won ton appetizers (6), wor won ton soup, house chow mein and soup dumplings. 1) The soup dumplings (10 for $15) is a must and their specialty which tasted great. Add vinegar and their chili sauce to your own liking. 2) The appetizer fried hot oil won ton was good but be careful of the peppers which is really hot. 3) The deluxe chow mein for $16.50 was great with pork, chicken beef and shrimp. It's made with their house fat noodles and they charge $4 extra for the house fat noodles. It was very tasty. 4) The wor won ton soup ($15) was very soothing included about 8 pork won tons, shrimp, pork, chicken and napa cabbage The IPA Shanghai beer was $6 (very reasonable) Prices are reasonable and comparable to other restaurants. Service was great - water kept getting refilled without asking. Food came out quickly. Go early and street parking is available. We enjoyed our meal. The location is within walking distance to several dessert places. read more

Updated 11/25 Dumpling Inn is my family's go to spot for birthday get togethers as they can accommodate larger parties and get the food out quickly. We love eating family style so we can eat multiple entrees and try new things. We always start with the potstickers to share. I got hosed last time being the nice guy and only ended up with one potsticker from two orders. :( For our entrees, we shared chicken chow mein, sweet and sour chicken, deluxe chow mein, honey glazed shrimp, and two ordered of beef with scallions. This was for five adults and two kids (11 & 13). We ordered five alcoholic drinks and three sodas. Our total with tip was $240 which I thought was extremely reasonable. Since we are a group of seven, we were seated in the back corner of the restaurant. Seemed to be our regular table. The restaurant opens at 4 pm for dinner so make sure that you get there early to put your name on the waitlist. Service is quick. Staff don't chit chat with you as they are hustling getting everyone situated and fed to keep moving people in and out efficiently. Since the restaurant shares is parking lot with other businesses, parking can be tricky. I parked in the back lot and paid $8.55 for two hours. The street parking is very hard to get. read more

Why did it take us so long to find Dumpling Inn and the associated Shanghai Saloon? Stopped in over the weekend for dinner with friends and it was awesome. It's a great space. Service was excellent and the food and drinks were great. It was busy but not packed and there was no wait to be seated. Lively but not too loud. We will definitely be back. read more

I have been wanting to try this place and the only complaint I had was parking (not to be helped it's Convoy). The food was fast and fresh and very flavorful and the cocktails were fun.

This is a great place for small or large parties. The wait isn't too terrible since there's so much seating inside. Overall, I really enjoyed their pan fried dumplings. I personally liked the flavor better than their soup dumplings. But their soup dumplings were still good! The orange chicken definitely has more of an orange flavor compared to your more Americanized restaurants. I enjoyed the tangy flavor, but for my kids, not too much. We also tried their house chow mein, and it was very flavorful with more of a stronger oyster sauce flavor. Overall, would return for some fresh dumplings and orange chicken. Service was pretty quick. read more

Pro-tip: Parking is complementary two hours if you can snag a spot in the lot. This is NOT your typical local Chinese fare, it's basically a sports bar. Highlights: It's a really large restaurant so there's definitely ample seating even for big groups. The food comes out pretty quickly. My dad enjoyed his duck noodles lunch set. Lowlights: I'm confused at the many reviews and high rating of this place and I wish I heeded more caution with the bad reviews that I had read because they were on par. The restaurant is this weird combination of a bar fused with Chinese food. The food is truly mediocre at best. The cha siu wonton noodle has only two flimsy cha siu pieces in it. They're supposedly signature soup dumplings XLB seriously taste worse than frozen ones - the filling is so soft, I had no idea what I was eating and the wrap just falls apart. After we sat down, it took so long for anyone to take our order or even acknowledge us even though a host lead us to our table. read more

Dumpling Inn - Soup Dumplings "XLB" - Chinese Near Me - San Diego, California

Overall, found this place to be disappointing. We ordered the xiao long bao, pan fried dumplings, steamed dumplings, wonton soup, and jellyfish for an appetizer. The jellyfish was the best dish, and even that was lackluster. The dumpling skin is too thick, meat inside isn't very flavorful -- and we tried all the dumpling variations to form a full opinion. Of the dumplings, the pan fried was probably the best (probably because the oil added extra flavors). Safe to say, I am not likely to come back. Pros: plenty of seating inside. They have free parking for 2 hours. Though parking can be tight in their small lot. read more

Tasty food, amazing xiao long bao! Best noodles in town. Great service. Great beer menu. We love this place.

The quality of the dumplings has gone down over the years. Used to drive all the way from Chula Vista to dine here, now I'll only come if I'm in the area. Customer service has remained decent though, staff are attentive especially with drink refills. No reservations but if you have a small party and get lucky, you can seat yourself at the bar right away. The XLB and dumplings are mediocre now, especially the XLB, which are often stuck to the paper in the steamer trays, the soup is often dried out and there's no soup in these "soup dumplings." This has happened the last two times I dined here. Orange chicken, pork & wontons in chili oil, salt & pepper wings, hot & sour soup are all just okay. The only dish I love here and that has remained consistent is the honey glazed shrimp that comes with a small bowl of rice. That's the only thing I'll now come back here for. I'll stick to DTF or the other new dumpling places in my area. Dumpling Inn is no longer worth the drive or long wait to be seated. read more

I love this place and will definitely be returning. This was my first time here and I have some comments! Service: The servers were really kind and made sure to provide recommendations. Additionally, they didn't mind when we wanted to send something back to the kitchen. Food: We ordered four things in total, here is my ranking: 1. Deluxe Chow Mein (5/5): I am a big noodle fan so this is heaven. The flavor and texture were just amazing. I would come back just for this. 2. XLB (5/5): This stuff just melts in your mouth and pairs perfectly with the soy sauce, vinegar, chili oil mixture. I would definitely come here for this. 3. Beef Curry Deep Fried Dumplings (4/5): These were pretty good! Kind of reminded me of sambusas. 4. 1/2 portion of Duck (1/5): Don't get this. It's really dry and flavorless I can't wait to come back! read more

I almost hate to review this restaurant because it will only increase wait times!! ; ) In all honesty though, best Chinese food restaurant in San Diego. It took us a while to go because the outside sign also says "Shanghai Saloon" so we thought it was a bar for the longest time and we were looking for a place to take our kids. We later discovered that they expanded and took over the bar that was next door - so now, it's one big room with a bar in the middle, and very kid friendly. The service is always super fast, the restaurant has fun decor, and there are a lot of options to choose from. As the name implies, they do have dumplings and they are delicious. They also have most of the Chinese food dishes you might expect. We've liked all the dishes we've ordered: kung pao chicken, orange chicken, spring rolls, veggie chow mein, beef with broccoli. You can make any dish a tofu dish, I really like the orange tofu. We have had to wait a few times (on busy weekend nights) but it's never more than 15-20 minutes. For the quality of food and price, worth it!! As a bonus, they are in the same lot as an ice cream store - iceskimo. Our kids love to stop there after dinner. Win-win. Parking is free in the uncovered lot (covered you have to pay) but if it's full we just find street parking off convoy. read more

I wanted to like this place when my friends were telling me about the pricing but after going , the pricing makes sense. The dumplings have no flavor and taste mushy and not fresh. Almost like it's made from frozen. I wish I had something nice to say about this place but I also trust yelp reviews so... do with this information what you will. read more

Such a great place for all size parties any time of the day/evening! We came here for a large birthday dinner and were shocked to see how large this place was! Don't let the outside fool you, parking is tight, the outside looks small but the inside is huuuuge and so greatly spaced. We were accommodated with our large group so nicely. The portions are huge and soooo good for large groups. I feel like we ordered half the menu and oh my goodness it was SOOO much food! The dumplings were good, can't compare them to the famous dumpling chain but this was second best to it and still recommend coming here. Orange chicken, tofu dish, noodles soup dumplings, veggie dumplings and so much more were great! I got a fried noodle veggie dish and realized it's nowhere near as good as their normal noodles veggie dish. All our servers were so great too. We can't wait to be back! read more

Dumpling Inn - Chinese Near Me - San Diego, California

Had a party of four stop by Dumpling Inn & Shanghai Saloon after work at approximately 5:30 PM on a Friday. It is crazy busy around that time (and pretty much all of the time), so be prepared to fight for parking. Upon entering the restaurant, you'll notice that it's super spacious with tons of seating. While it's unquestionably a popular, crowded joint, it's unlikely that you'll be waiting long for a seat. There's a bar area in the center of the restaurant where there are large TVs playing sports games. It's also rather delightfully decorated, so overall, there's a great upbeat ambiance to this place. FOOD: There's soy sauce and vinegar at every table. Additionally, I thought all the food was reasonably priced, and the portions were super filling. We actually had a lot of leftovers to bring home. Xiao Long Bao (4/5) - Solid xiao long bao option. Nice and juicy. Dumpling skin is not super thick, but the bottom skin of the dumpling can be quite delicate and break if you are not careful with your chopsticks. Comes with a heap of thin ginger slices that you can enjoy with the dumplings. Deluxe Chow Mein (4/5) - Pretty standard chow mein. Nicely flavored and will satisfy a chow mein or general noodle craving. The texture of the noodles was pleasant, but I wish they were a little more generous wth the proteins and that the dish was less oily. I would get it again as a carb-centered dish for the table that's great for sharing. Pickled Cucumber Salad (3/5) - Not super pickled tasting. Just tasted like raw cucumbers with little garlic chunks... because that's essentially all that was. Good thing I like both cucumbers and garlic (lol). Pork and Chive Dumplings (4/5) - Comes boiled. I don't think you can really go wrong with any of the dumplings here. I am not super picky about dumplings; I really am an enjoyer of all dumplings, especially if there's a nice dipping sauce of soy sauce, vinegar, and chili oil available. Orange Chicken (1/5) - Do not get the orange chicken here. It was shockingly bad for such a well-established restaurant. It was violently neon orange, and looks-wise, the sauce most closely resembled American buffalo sauce. Taste-wise, it was unbearably sweet and very different from the orange chicken I typically encounter and enjoy. It tasted as if they had melted orange hard candies and used that as the sauce. Sauteed Lamb with Chinese Greens (4.5/5) - Wasn't expecting much when my friend ordered this, but it was delicious. It tasted homey, like my grandma was in the kitchen and prepared this. Too salty to eat alone, so eat it with the rice it comes with. Lamb was tender and not gamey at all. SERVICE: (5/5) The place was pretty packed, but the staff were all super attentive and polite. My water was constantly refilled. They're really on top of it! TLDR// Pretty good place to get dumplings, and they have plenty of other upstanding dishes. Whatever you do, though, do not get the orange chicken. Would come back to eat more solid dumplings or just to try more of their extensive menu. read more

I'm Chinese. I like authentic Chinese food, and I also like American Chinese food. I would call this place more American Chinese food, and it was not good. The dumplings tasted like they had been sitting in the freezer for a while and not fresh at all. Thought the dumplings would at least be good if the place is called dumpling inn. Ordered several other dishes as well and I took a bite and couldn't eat anymore. Service here was ok. Kinda feel like we were rushed. We just sat down and our server came to take our order. Told her that we needed a minute, and she rushed us several times within 5 minutes to order. We were seated at a table facing the door, which was kept open during dinner/sunset time. The entire time we were just staring at the sun getting blinded. Would not go back again read more

Decent dumplings for an okay price. I'm still searching for really good dim sum/dumpling restaurant in San Diego though. This didn't quite hit the mark. The decor of the restaurant is kind of confusing. It's got a lot of traditional Asian decor with random saloon elements thrown in. Staff felt a little rushed and subsequently, I felt like they had no time for us and we were burdening them just by being there. read more

I went here yesterday 3/20/26 to inquire about making a reservation for next Sat for 8-10 people. As soon as I entered, there was a bad smell in the air. Not sure if it's coming from dirty floors or from floors that were mopped with stinky, dirty water. I couldn't stand the smell and left quickly. I went to another restaurant a few steps away and I smelled the delicious aroma of food. I made my reservations there. read more

I love the owner, the staff is always amazing. I've had many business meetings and birthday parties here. Great spot!

Whenever we're craving some delicious Xiao Long Bao, my husband and I always head down to Dumpling Inn. Their soup dumplings are juicy, flavorful, easy to peel off the parchment paper (which you know, matters). My mouth is watering just thinking about it again. We also enjoy the Chinese Sausage Fried Rice which is just enough for about 3 adults and is so delicious. The flavorful eggs, the sweet chinese sausage, it just served as the perfect delicious side to a meat or vegetable entree. Speaking of which, we also order the Honey Walnut Shrimp. The sweet creaminess is a nice compliment to the crunchy breading, and the thick, meatiness of the shrimp itself. The ambiance is a marriage between a modern western saloon mixed with old, traditional asian vibes. It truly feels like a place for anyone and everyone. But I think aside from the delicious food, the best part of our most recent visit was the impeccable service. Our server was Jimmy. He clearly had his job cut out for him even at 4:30pm in the afternoon as almost half the restaurant was booked and he appeared to be the only server. He was quick, efficient, and friendly. He didn't talk too much, or make insincere small stalk, he said what was needed, and delivered everything quickly. He pre-bussed, he refilled all our sodas everytime they were halfway full (or halfway empty), and he didn't bug us by constantly checking on us while simultaneously making sure we had everything we needed at any time. He was truly amazing and we were so happy to tip him 25%. I wish more places had servers like Jimmy, and hopefully when you do dine in, he is your server as well. Because it's not just about the food, it's about the service. And we will definitely be back soon!! read more

(ETA: just a note to the owner given that they came on here to "correct" me & others who have complained about the declining veggie options. That's cool that anything on the entree menu can become vegetarian by substituting tofu. But, um... maybe put that on the menu so people *know* before they order, rather than coming here over & over when folks say there are fewer veggie options to have to tell them after? It's not listed on the online menu or the pics people have given of the dining-in menus. It would be nice to do to show your veg customers you care about them! Ditto for asking at takeout: do you want soy sauce & vinegar? Not having done takeout for a few years, I had no idea it was only "by request") *** They have many fewer veg things than they did back in the day. But I got veggie dumplings & garlic baked fish tonight for takeout. The veggie dumplings came home with no soy sauce or black vinegar - eek! That seems like something they should automatically put in the bag. So they were a little dry and not as good as Din Tai's. But the garlic baked fish was quite delicious. Really tasty sauce even if not super healthy. I'll order this again! read more

Ordered chow mein, fish with green beans and black bean say e and xiao long Bao. Forgot to take pic of the last entree. All were delicious.

This is a pretty big restaurant. Plenty of seating and cool decor that reminds you of Asia. They have a makeshift looking hawker stall, a rickshaw, lanterns, and a bar that is in the middle of the dining space. Service was good and we were greeted and seated quickly too. Food came out pretty fast and portion sizes were as expected. What we ordered: Pork and chive boiled dumplings- They tasted fine but I don't really enjoy the thick texture of the dough. Beef Curry Dumplings- Well done and good flavor without being overly greasy Jellyfish- texture and flavor was average 3 Ingredient crispy pan fried noodle- Decent amount of protein but I did not like the thick texture of the noodles Deluxe Noodle soup- Kids enjoyed this and taste was okay. Garlic Baked fish- This was breaded and flavor was good but it did get soggy quickly due to the sauce Dragon's Eye- Lychee Matini ~ this drink was pretty strong so it was okay.

From the moment you walk in, you're hit with a fun, vibrant atmosphere that feels like a Chinese saloon. The hanging lanterns, intricate wooden latticework, and carved panels set the tone, while the painted landscape walls and open space are an extra added aesthetic that makes it really immersive. Feels like a quick trip to Asia without leaving San Diego. The pan-fried potstickers are so good that we had to order two servings. They're crispy, savory, and absolutely packed with flavor. If you're a fan of soup dumplings, their Xiao Long Bao is definitely worth a try too. They had just the right amount of broth inside to make each bite a delight.
