Great service! Water tastes pretty weird though I'd suggest brining your own water bottle. Food is delicious! Spicy chili shrimp noodles are super yummy we also loved the boa buns, and the spicy vegan wontons were amazing! We didn't love the bok choy and mushroom dumplings. Family style food comes out as it is ready. Great options for vegetarians, vegans and meat eaters! Sat quickly. Environment is welcoming we enjoy the led sign in the back. Good for big and small groups. read more

We enjoyed our meal. We drove from Tacoma to try it out. It wasn't worth the drive but the food was good. Not something I would drive far to try but it was good enough. The passion drink was yummy. I am very picky with dumplings but they were ok. We enjoyed the area where it's located though, cute shops to walk too and a yummy cookie place next door plus matcha spot. read more

Came here on a Sunday afternoon, party of 3. We ordered 5 dishes 1. beef lamen noodles 2. xiao long baos 3. spicy wontons 4. half peking duck 5. boy chow and mushroom dumplings. All the dishes were delish! I would say the standout dishes and would recommend if you're visiting try the lamen noodles and the peking duck, everything else was pretty standard. Service was quiet and quick. read more

We stopped by Dumpling The Noodle around 5:30 pm on a Friday. You can tell it's a popular spot. It was already two-thirds full with a steady stream of people walking in. Their menu features a lot of spicy dishes, but they are very accommodating if you ask for non-spicy versions. Beef Lamen: We absolutely loved the chewy texture of the noodles. It came with a generous portion of braised beef and a rich sauce. The sauce was a little on the salty side tho. The portion size was great, but the beef itself was a bit tough and dry (you can soak it in the sauce). Dumplings: These were excellent. The dumpling wrappers were clearly well-made, and the filling was flavorful and packed with real shrimp. Overall, the food came out incredibly fast, and the service was very friendly read more

We came on a lazy Sunday around 1pm, seating was easy peasy and ordering was too via paper. Service was fast, the buns took a while to come out. The ambiance was good, but there was a giant fly during our meal trying to get a bite to eat with us. We ordered the beef lamen, sichuan fried green beans and their signature pork fried buns. All in all the food was on the heavier side for us flavor wise, the texture of the noodles were less springy, we did like the green beans. I'd probably try a lighter dish next time but for the meal overall aesthetics were good, taste could have been better. I was a bit disappointed with the buns, they were more soggy than crispy but they came out well. The filling could have used more veggie and less salt. It was a good crisp outside bun though. read more

Solid lamen, good portion of meat! I thought the noodles could be a bit softer. Dumplings were big and juicy, flavour wise nothing special but good portions. Next time I'd get the dry beef chili noodle. Service is fast and plenty of seating. read more

This is easily the best place to go for your classic cozy beef noodle soup. I don't think their "spicy" is all that spicy, but it's filling and hearty either way. I would also recommend the delicious lychee drink, it pairs weirdly well with the hot soup and is super refreshing. This is an easy go-to at any time. read more

Very solid Chinese dumpling and noodle spot in Wallingford! The restaurant is tucked away by a residential neighborhood alongside a busier street. Parking was easy to find in residential areas. The interior was casual and clean, on a weekday dinner there was no wait. My friend and I ordered a couple dishes to share: chili the beef lamen, pork buns, green onion pancakes, and pork and cabbage dumplings. My favorite dish is the chili the beef lamen. The noodles are thick and chewy and coated with a savory sauce that has a hint of spice-- kind of resembling braised beef noodle soup type spice. The beef was very tender as well. The pork buns and dumplings were fresh and juicy. The green onion pancakes were crispy and a great way to end the meal. In total with tip, our total came out to around $60, so about $30 per person with lots of food to take home was not bad. If you were to order individual dishes for one person, it is very affordable. Coming from someone who grew up eating Chinese food and am pretty particular, I find myself coming back here to bring my friends whenever they're in town and I think this is a really solid spot for Asian food! read more

Came with 3 other diners to try out dumpling the noodle. It is street only parking. You are greeted upon arrival and seated. The restaurant was clean and they tried to bus the tables quickly when diners had finished their meals. I ordered Braised Beef Rice Noodle Soup and sampled a bite of everything pictured. My soup didn't have a super flavorful broth. Don't get me wrong, It was good. When I added vinegar and some other condiments on our table it really boosted the taste and I finished it off easily. Piping hot, tender beef, and the noodles were thicker flat noodles. I enjoyed it very much. The servers drop off food and cross out the item on your receipt at the table. They have quite a few items on their menu. As a local I would definitely return to try other menu items. Being that I am not local I would most likely try a different dumpling spot on my next visit. As I enjoy looking for new places to try out while I am in town. read more

Maybe this place used to be good but none of the food was good Chinese food. The food is edible and won't make you sick or anything. It's just subpar level of taste. Everything tastes fine and okay. Saying the food tastes good would be a stretch for me. We ordered the green beans, dumplings, spicy wontons, and a pan fried buns. None of us wanted more lol and we typically do eat quite a bit. Nothing special. Service was great and speedy. Food came out fast. Prices were great as well. I do not plan to come back. I can see how people come here for take out. My two friends and I (and all 3 of us are Chinese) think this place is not yummy. It's below average/average for us. This place is so skippable. It's not a place I would go out of the way for. We were glad we tried it and we crossed it off our list. If you lived nearby and this was your only Chinese food, then fine, going here makes sense. read more

Food is amazing!! But we might as well have been served by a robot. Sadly 0 customer service.

Came here once for restaurant week and thought it was a great deal. I still see it every time restaurant week happens and it still looks like a good deal each time. Outside of that, we recently came here wifh friends who said that this is surprisingly their favorite peking duck in the city. Can in fact confirm that it's really good. Thin crepes, juicy not super fatty duck, all the components were great. Pork onion buns were also super juicy and i love the bouce to all their noodle dishes read more

This place was just okay. For all the hype and good reviews, my expectations were set pretty high. We got the dumplings and were unimpressed. The dumpling filling was not something I'm used to...it was dry and it was almost like shredded meat instead of minced meat usually used in dumplings. I didn't like that texture. The wrapping was also too thick. We also got the braised beef noodle soup. The soup was pretty good; had bold flavors, lots of meat, and I liked the texture of the noodles; had that "springy-ness" to it. The fried chicken was dry and the green beans were okay. Service was fast and fine. The place was modern, clean, and nicely decorated. Overall, it's just okay read more

pan fried pork onion baos - 8/10 very savory and delish! hit nice after a long day of studying garlic green beans - 8/10 can't go wrong, a classic green onion pancake - 6/10 flakey and delish, missing a little salt though tofu lamen - 8.5/10 sauce was REALLY good but tofu part was lacking and serving size could be bigger! pork and cabbage dumplings - 8/10 delish, jasmin really enjoyed them vegan wontons with special sauce - 3.5/10 jasmin took a bite and gave the rest to hana fried chicken - 7.5/10 REALLY good crunch, not as well seasoned as before very full at the end had to unbutton the pants and relax with tinker bell and the secret of the wings one of my fav places bc its nut free!! good for someone w a nut allergy read more

Decent Chinese spot in Wallingford. Every dish was made fresh to order and came out piping hot. As the name suggests, they specialize in dumplings and noodles. We loved the String Beans and the House Special Pork Buns. Their Seasonal Beef Pepper and Chicken Corn dumplings were unique but flavors weren't as good as the other dishes. Great wrapper texture though. Service was slow on an empty day but friendly. read more

Happy new year! The Peking Duck was killer. The signature pork buns as well. Even my 2 year old daughter was a fan of just about everything we put in front of her. Just grabbed take out on the way home but the restaurant seemed cozy and I'll definitely be coming back. Smallest of small complaints. I wish we had maybe 2 more pancakes for the duck!! You guys rock however. read more

Maybe I ordered the worst thing on the menu but I got the chili tofu rice noodle, and it came out as a sloppy mess with about 5 very thin pieces of fried tofu thrown on. The sauce felt too wet for the dish, flavor wasn't impressive at all or even good (and not spicy either). Very disappointed :( read more

I ordered the mock duck lamen soup and my fiancé had the braised beef lamen soup. Both soups were MOSTLY OIL and it felt like I was just drinking pure oil. I told our server this and she gave the excuse of beef bones, but the mock duck one does not have beef (it's also marked as vegan..) It's a shame because the texture of the noodles is really good. I've literally never been served this much oil before, not in America, not in China or Taiwan. Service was also slow and they didn't care they served us so much oil. read more

Dumpling The Noodle - Chili The Beef Rice Noodle 牛肉香辣拌(粉) - Noodles Near Me - Seattle, Washington

I visited Dumpling The Noodle for the first time during restaurant week with a couple of friends. We ended up getting three of the combo specials, totaling 17 dishes, with some being served multiple times. This was over the weekend for lunch, and while the restaurant got pretty full, it never reached capacity. Since there were so many dishes, this is essentially a collection of notes. All Time Favorite ($65) - Includes Pork Onion Buns, Pork Shrimp Siumai, Pork Shrimp Wonton in Chili Sauce, Seasoning Fried Chicken, Sichuan Dry-fried Green Beans, Sweet Sour Cucumber, Chili The Tofu Lamen. Beer Partner ($65) - Includes Bulgogi Beef Dumpling, Cilantro Spicy Beef, Sichuan Dry-fried String Beans, Seasoning Fried Chicken, JaJang Beef Pancake Roll, Sweet Sour Cucumber, Chili The Beef Lamen. Duck Bit ($50) - Includes Peking Duck Half, Pork Shrimp Siumai, Sichuan Dry-fried Green Beans. Note: The waiter told us they ran out of the Sweet Sour Cucumber, so they ended up substituting the Kale in Sesame Dressing. Signature Pork Onion Buns ($10.95) - An order comes with four pieces. The bun I picked up had a giant hole on the bottom, but no juice pooling underneath, indicating the bun was punctured during the cooking process. Like most gelatinized starch buns, the cooked dough is fluffy and warm, pleasing to eat. The inside, due to the hole, lacks some of the juices but is still tasty. (4/5) Pork Shrimp Siu Mai ($6.75) - An order comes with three pieces. According to the menu, these are made by Cheers HK (I believe their sister dimsum restaurant), and steamed to order here. These are steamed way too long. The wrapper is almost like mush and tears very readily when trying to lift a piece up with chopsticks. In terms of the filling - pretty traditional with pork, mushroom, and pieces of shrimp. (3/5) Kale in Sesame Dressing ($6.55) - Quite tasty, dressing that's not too salty, crunchy kale greens. Some of pieces have rather large stems, so either eat around these or be prepared for a jaw work out. I actually liked the substitution - I'm not a huge fan of the soy sauce/vinegar cucumber dish in the first place. (5/5) JaJang Beef Pancake Roll ($9.95) - A scallion pancake is wrapped around beef shank with gelatinous tendon and a smattering of stewed carrot, cucumbers, cilantro and hoisin sauce. The sauce sinks into the pancake and makes it soggy, so this has to be eaten quickly. (3/5) Seasoning Fried Chicken ($10.75) - Not fried particularly long, making the exterior coat more soft than crisp. Seasoned liberally, very fragrant and flavorful. Natural chicken flavor comes out very well, not dry inside. (4/5) Sichaun Dry-Fried String Beans ($10.25) - Good flavor, thick sauce coating the string beans quite evenly and pooling at the bottom. String beans are tender but not overcooked. Blistered skin with no crisp. Good dish overall but not particularly spicy or mala. (5/5) Bulgogi Beef Dumpling ($8.95) - As with the other wrapped items, mine came pre-punctured with a hole on the bottom. I'm not sure I would characterize the filling as bulgogi - I didn't find it particularly sweet or soyful. More like a beef ball in flavor in texture perhaps? I was expecting this to be similar to a Korean mandu, with vermicelli inside as well, but it's more plain. (3/5) Chili The Beef Lamen ($16.75) - Long, chewy noodles, plenty of beef, flavorful, slightly spicy, good. (5/5) Chili The Tofu Lamen ($16.75) - Similar to above except for tofu. Not much else to say. (5/5) Pork Shrimp Wonton in Chili Sauce ($10.75) - Cooked too long, the skins disintegrate and sloughs off while trying to eat. A good spice level and good flavor, just difficult to eat due to the skin. (2/5) Cilantro Spicy Beef ($10.95) - Mixed with tons of cilantro sprigs, thinly shaved beef shank marinated, a little spicy, pleasing texture. (4/5) Half DTN Signature Peking Duck ($37.50) - This dish came out last, well after everything else had arrived. The duck is pretty good - juicy, moist, with a thin crispy skin and plenty of fat to go around. Of course the sweet, tangy, savory sauce to drizzle and spread on the rice paper sheets, and julienned cucumber and green onion, as is traditional. The major weakness here are the wrappers and how they are presented to the customer - all in a pile, stuck together. Lifting what seems to be a single sheet up is more like 3 sheets. Trying to separate them is like trying to separate glued paper - they stick together and start ripping apart. It would be nice if they had an option for table service with the duck, but I guess this restaurant is more casual and less formal. (4/5) There's a common theme to many of the dishes here - good flavor and seasoning, but rough around the edges when it comes to cook time/assembly. I wonder if that was due to it being restaurant week? Given all the great reviews, I assume it's normally better. Still, overall the food is good and I would return.

Service is always fast, food tastes clean and fresh. Also open late so it's fun to go with friends before/after a night out!

Staff is very nice and food is delicious! The pork and shrimp dumpling wonton was so flavorful. Good ambiance as well!

First time experience August 22, 2025. Professional service during busy Friday night. Food is tasty, spicy and hit the spot. Got the braised beef lamen (pulled wheat flour noodles, think paparadelle-esque) - had plenty veggies consisting of bean sprouts, yuchoy sum, cilantro, some carrot slices for sweetness : scallion pancakes : sweet sour cucumbers : cilantro beef : passionfruit drink. Enough food for 2-3 people under $50 (sans tax, sans tip). Will be back. Pro tip- one noodle soup dishes out 8 rice bowls worth read more

Updating my review from my last take out experience! Came in for dinner and got lucky to find it was happy hour! We tried the beef noodles, string beans, bork steam buns, beef bulgogi dumplings and the chili fried chicken. Everything was amazing! The pork buns were some of the best I've had and I loved the texture of the beef noodles. It was busy, but they got the food out relatively quickly. I'll be back again! read more

A friend and I came here after we were both craving some good Chinese food; we had heard a lot about this place and wanted to check it out. The restaurant provides an excellent, quiet ambiance for hangouts with friends, and an excellent menu of dumplings, wontons, and noodles to go along with it. We got one of the noodle dishes, one of the wonton dishes, and the lychee drink, and all three were served quickly and hot out of the kitchen. Rachel and Ding provided us with efficient and friendly service, checking in on us frequently and making sure all of our needs were taken care of. We were super impressed, and plan to come back soon! read more

Took my parents here while they were in town and this place did not disappoint. Honestly wished I got more dumplings because that was worthwhile for sure. The noodle broth dishes were great and spicy which I enjoyed. The noodles were thick and freshly made in-house, so you know it's good. But the dumplings that we got were very impressive. Enjoyed them a lot and will need to go back to try some more. Service was great. My dad wanted some special request being the dad he is and the service kindly told him they couldn't fulfill his request. Had to do something with the noodle broth dishes. Honestly forgot, but my dad ended up getting us free ice cream at the end. A bit embarrassing, but that's how it be sometimes. Place is very dim at night and the booths could've used an update I think. The place has a reasonable amount of seating for tables of 4 and 2,. It isn't super big, but reserving a table a head of time helps for sure. Definitely do that. read more

Not great. First of all, three parties that arrived after us were seated before us. When I asked the host why he replied by saying "they're here". Uh... what? Anyway. We got seated and ordered our food - garlic Lamen. We were given tofu Lamen that tasted like dirt. read more

This restaurant is a bit overhyped. For the Chili the Beef Lamen, the noodles and sauce were great but the beef was tough and hard to chew. The pork onion buns & chive pork and shrimp dumplings were ok. If I came back, I'd probably stick with the noodles. The food did take 40 min to come out on a Friday evening, which is understandable since they were so busy. I think the service was pretty efficient despite that, so I appreciated their best efforts. read more

Certainly a very good find. One of better Chinese restaurants, although I must admit that I haven't been to many Chinese places. However I do know that you must always always try their sweet/sour cucumber. And I did that here too - so good. The best cucumber fish I ever tried. The Garlic String Beans were flavorful too. Loved our appetizers. The corn chicken dumplings were somewhat bland but I am sure that is how it is supposed to be. But I liked it because of the salt and light seasoning. The Rice Garlic Tofu soup bowl felt super nutritious, good veggie broth and had a decent flavor profile. The service is reasonably quick and ambience is above average but nothing that blows your mind. However one thing that I felt was the staff was not very communicative because of language barrier. I wanted to understand if rice tofu noodles I got was glutten free. I am pretty sure it was but the waiter kept saying no. I tried asking what exactly is not gluten free in this recipe to which he kept saying soy sauce without fully understanding what we were trying to ask. But I can overlook that aspect and I don't blame them.Food was really good and I will definitely visit this place again. read more

My mother, grandmother, and sisters came here for the first time after hearing good things this was a special day for my grandmother 80th birthday. We made a reservation and upon arrival we were please to see that it wasn't quiet that busy so the staff had alot of time to spend explaining the menu and chatting. After exploring the menu we ordered some things we were familiar with and to try some new things. Our food came out hot and fresh and on time And plated beautifully. We enjoyed every bite flavors were amazing. After we were done , the staff decided they were gonna treat my Grandmother to a birthday celebratory teriamisu slice of cake. It was so yummy. We enjoyed are time here and will be back again. We will also share wonderful memories with are family and friends of are time at this place. read more

The folks working here make this place so good to visit. We got their vegan, chicken and pork dumplings. Also got the pork soup dumplings which were to die for.

Had a great meal during Seattle Restaurant Week! I am so impressed with how many vegan options are available. Service was very fast and the people who served us were all so kind! These items are all best shared.

Nothing warms you up better than a hand pulled noodle soup on a Seattle night! Walked in with my bestie on a Saturday night -- other places we were looking at for dinner that night had crazy wait times and this spot is open until 11 pm on Saturdays. We also found super good street parking, so the stars just aligned perfectly for us at Dumpling the Noodle. The food here is a mix of Beijingg, Shanghai, Sichuan styles of cooking. We were in need of some veggies so we ordered their cucumber salad and green beans. The cucumber salad was more on the sour side than spicy and the green beans were perfectly fried and savory. We ordered few dumplings, their pork chives and shrimp dumpling, signature pork onion buns, and the pork and shrimp dumplings in their spicy sauce. We also got an order of their chili beef rice noodle. Super long and thick hand pulled rice noodles. Be sure to add some chili oil and vinegar to amp up the flavor. The veggies in this soup were super good too! My fav dish of the night was a jajang beef pancake roll, a scallion pancake packed with beef and green onion. The only thing that really fell short for me was the hot tea we ordered, it kinda tasted like dirty water which lowkey the whole restaurant smelled like. I think this would be a great spot to bring a group of friends, especially if there are some vegans/ vegetarians in the group. My favorite jajang pancake roll also comes as a vegan tofu roll. There's also vegan shiitake buns, won tons in spicy sauce and a mock duck noodle soup I'm super curious about! read more
