Really happy this is not too far from Lake Stevens! Great selection of food, dumplings are epic, shrimp fried rice is explosive! Service is fast, QR code order and food is on the table in minutes. Plenty of seating and parking for everyone. Sometimes you will wait and it is worth the wait. Sometimes you will be seated right away. No complaints this will be our go to place for dumplings. Beat Din Tai Fung, hands down. read more

A solid 3.5 stars I'm sure it's new opening chaos and being busier than expected. You list by entering you name and number on a tablet, we assumed we'd get a text. But apparently you need to stay by the door as they called out names. So we got passed over. They did seat us after we pointed it out and were very nice about it. The food took quite a while to come out and to get a server for reorders was a bit hard, there's not a lot of table awareness. Again they just opened so I'm hoping this is just growing pains. We did the soup dumplings, beef noodle soup and a few other dumpling dishes and fried rice. The food was good not spectacular but I'd definitely go again. Nice having a dumpling spot in Everett. read more

My first time setting foot inside a Dumpling World and it went well. I'm still trying to find a noodle joint up north that is as good as Chef King in Seattle was, or to a lesser extent how good Chiang's still is. The Chicken Chow Mein is good. I wish it had been a little hotter. But really good service, VERY clean space. I will be back, big menu left me wanting more! read more

Dumpling World - Chicken chow mein! - Chinese Near Me - Everett, Washington

We went to Dumpling World and it was delicious! I highly recommend the chow mein and the soup dumplings!!!! Those things are handmade to order! So they do take a while to come out! Also the green beans are a definite delish part of the meal! The place is pretty small and it took us a while to get seated but the food was worth it! One thing we didn't like was our server at the end was over our shoulders as we were paying and he was too close for comfort. However we would return again for the food! read more

That was delicious and fresh! We are so happy to have an authentic dumpling house in our neighborhood. Everything we ordered was outstanding in taste. The Xiao Long Bao took the longest to come out. I'm glad we saved room because that was excellent. The size was about 2 inches in diameter. Larger than other places with lots of soup! The dough was thin and it melts in your mouth. The servers were very friendly and accommodating. You order using a QR code. The restaurant is clean and modern. We love this new place and can't wait to try their other dumplings! Yum!!! read more

I can on a Friday night and the place was packed. There's an iPad in the corner to check in and my turn came up pretty quickly even though there were lots of parties waiting. The restaurant itself is definitely more of a hole in the wall type of place, nothing showy. The food was so good and authentic! The green beans were so garlicky and well seasoned, and I loved the dry eggplant noodle dish as well! All the dumplings were awesome and I got ones with shrimp mostly and there are whole shrimp in each dumpling and it was SO good! The best item I had was the pan fried pork soup dumpling - I've never had anything like it! Also the service was so nice, our order of soup dumplings came out looking a little deflated the first time and I didn't mind or say anything but our server saw and insisted that it was overcooked and said he would get us another portion of them! So we ended up with double the amount of soup dumplings that we ordered and it was all delicious! read more

I live right around the corner and seeing social media buzz of this dumpling house got me excited! For its soft opening, Dumpling World impressed with their hand crafted wontons and dumplings. You can tell the dumplings and wontons are made fresh, not frozen as their quality exceeded local and popular chains in the area. For lunch service, our party of 4 ordered the Braised Pork Rib Noodle Soup, Dan Dan Noodles, Shrimp Wontons in Chili, The wonton soup, and the pork and chive steamed dumplings. The quality, portions, and taste alone grants Dumpling World a 5/5 star review. I am very impressed with how delicious and juicy each bite of dumpling or wonton were. Both soups were equally impressive and massively generous in portion size. These 5 dishes were more than enough for 4 adults with leftovers packed. Note: if you are expecting Din Tai Fung service and ambiance, you may be a little let down. Counting over 10 tables seating 4+, this is larger than your typical hole in the wall, but comes with a similar "vibe." Pricing is similar to that of Din Tai Fung, so expect to pay up for high quality dishes. read more

Theres not enough dumpling places around here. This place was pretty popular. We had to wait a few minutes for a table. It was worth the wait! The only problem we ran into was the table was not big enough for everything we ordered. We had four of us and we ordered 8 different things so we could try more entrees. Everything was so good! The xiao long baked was the biggest I've seen! The order system was different. Everything is ordered on your phone by scanning a qr code. Anyone can add to the group order from their own phone. We will definitely be back here again sometime. read more

So I finally made it. Every time I've tried to get in it it's been packed with patrons, including some standing outside in a line or a type of queue. It's still in its soft opening phase, which is a good sign for business and for Everett. As I entered, I walked in shortly after 5 pm, and was greeted by a waiter, already carrying a plate of potstickers. As he approached, we both jinxed each other by "table for one" and he gestured first to the open floor but as I eyed behind him, I was able to get the last booth. I'm a single party, most of the time, so it felt nice having it to myself. I didn't notice any menus, but each table seemed to have a QR code printed on it so I promptly pulled out my phone and did a quick download. Now to fast forward just a bit, as more customers came in I noticed they had menus. So you can either ask for one or maybe I didn't see them before. Either way you're not stuck with just the phone QR option. I'm not usually a fan of those because I'd rather the book. And sometimes you have to pay through that as well which is a real turnoff considering I'm right there but Dumpling World seems to cater to both new and old style customers. As I was settling in, I noticed I had accoutrements that were already in place. And a pitcher of water that was patiently waiting to be poured by its first visitor. During my perusal of the menu people were coming in minute after minute. Again this place is still getting packed so be ready. I had already done my research on what I was interested in but I noticed certain items were not on the menu. My first initial thought was that since I came in during dinner time the menu might have been scaled down or had a different offering but after discussing with one of the waitresses towards the end of my meal, Mary or Maria, I was informed that since they are still in their soft opening phase, they are still deciding what to have ready and on the menu. Makes sense but I was really looking forward to trying some unique flavors. Real quick, the passion fruit cucumbers and wood ear mushroom salad were not available yet but eventually they will be. Now for my order. I put everything in at once. I started with the beef fried Chow Mein. I then selected the Shrimp Paste Spicy and Sour dumplings. Third item was the Pan Fried Pork Soup buns. I finished my order with a tropical refreshing tea; mango and a coke. The first dish that arrived in which seemed like magic was the Beef Chow Mein. It was screaming hot, fresh from the kitchen. It was enough to feed four people so I definitely had leftovers and besides I knew I had more food coming so it was a good starter. The noodles were soft yet had great bite an chew. They absorbed the flavors well. The vegetables were nice and still had a little snap and crunch. The beef bites were small and could've been a bit more but helped carry the entirety of the dish with succulence and savory bites throughout. I was pleased but next time I'll try the fried rice option. Still a good dish. Next came the spicy and sour dumplings. A huge bowl of dumplings with a clear yet speckled broth smelling of souryness. It was pungent but in a good way. I usually go for the broth first but I really wanted to try a dumpling so I dove my chopsticks in and grabbed slash stabbed one and dug in. These are definitely handmade. And the shrimp flavor was amazing. Not overwhelming or powerful but subtle and delicious. I could somewhat taste the broth but it kinda just rolled off the skin of the dumpling so I used my spoon next. It was a very mild sour but the spice wasn't there. At least not at first. It took a while for any type of kick to develop but when it did it was mild. I would prefer more of a kick but I think it's perfect for less spicy enthusiasts who might be timid and yet curious to try the dish. I used some of the vinegar and chili oil on the side on a dumpling that I used the small dish for and it was a nice addition of flavor. I went back and forth with the chow mein and sour dumplings before my third and final dish came. The Pan Fried Pork Soup dumplings finally arrived. They were huge. And when I went in to grab one it was so hot it startled me lol. I usually have tempered hands but I wasn't ready. So be careful. And like the title says they had a very crispy bottom but the top still retained its pillowy shape and softness. They were almost too handsome to eat but I didn't come to look so I had at it. I did my little nibble and a started sucking the broth. Delectable. You could give me a bowl of it by itself. Fatty. Savory. Porky. Great flavor. And the meat had a great flavor and texture on its own. The wrapping was incredible. read more

So excited to have a dumpling spot up north! Dumpling world just opened up 5 days ago so I had to go check it out! The food was absolutely amazing. Their soup dumplings are massive and filled with so much hot flavorful soup. I already want to go back to have the sesame noodles, as that was my personal favorite from our meal! The wontons were amazing as well. The staff were so attentive and quick, especially for just opening! Overall a great place to go to when you are craving dumplings but don't want to drive to Seattle for DTF. I will definitely be back several times! read more

I sat down and ordered right away. The restaurant was empty at first. I waited 25 minutes for a bowl of noodles and fried rice, while people who sat down after me already received their food. I asked Vivian why my order was taking so long, and her response was just, "Oh... oh." I then asked another staff member, and he said the noodles took a long time to cook . When I asked for a water refill, Vivian didn't look happy. There was no apology at all. I'm pretty sure my food was given to a different table, because when I asked about it again, my food came out in less than 5 minutes. Not a great experience overall. The dumplings were alright. read more

YUM! Went in expecting to get the wonton soup - I'm doing an informal survey for best wonton soup ... this place was great! Had the soup dumplings to start, sauteed green beans, and then decided some more pan fried dumplings were in order. Ran out of room for soup! It was so good I brought my partner back the next day for the wonton soup i had missed and more dumplings. read more

We visited Dumpling World over the weekend for lunch. There is usually a wait time. We had to wait around 10 minutes, which was not bad. The place was full and you will need to place your order from your phone. The online menu was helpful however the portion size looks smaller in the pictures (which was good, but plan accordingly). We ordered 4 different dumplings: Steamed, with soup, pan fried and the colorful dumplings. All the dumplings were fantastic. We loved the soup dumplings the most. The soup in the dumplings was not too hot (unlike other restaurants), making it easier to consume and taste. We also orded the mixed Chow Mein noodles (pork, shrimp, chicken) with eggs and the Ube Boba Milk tea. The noodles was one of the best we have had in recent times. The highlight of the noodles was that the sauces and flavor were well absorbed by the noodles, making it flavorful. The boba tea was great with not much sugar, which is great. The ambiance is not too loud and very good for families. Overall a great dumpling place in Everett area. We will definitely visit again. read more

NOT-recommended for party of 5 or more!!!! The food was good. The service is fast and friendly. The ambience is okay and nothing to brag about. The only thing that needs improvement is how small the tables are. If you have 5 plus people with the struggle to place all the orders on the table is real. That is why I gave it a 4 stars. read more

Our first (and probably only) trip to Dumpling World was a mixed experience. There was a lot of people in line ahead of us which is a good sign. We waited about 25-30 mins to be seated on a Sunday night at around 6:00. First things first, the food was very tasty and had excellent flavors. They serve the dishes in the same manor as DTF - that is, one at a time, as they are made. This would be fine if they were all made at relatively the same time. However, ours were not. We started our order at 6:45 and ordered everything at once. We ordered 4 dishes. We got our first dish at about 6:55. Our last dish came to us at about 7:35. So about 50 mins for 4 dishes to be served. That's approximately 12 mins in between each dish, but realistically there was at least one wait in between dishes that was 20 mins or more. Not sure what was going on with the kitchen....apparently they were busy. But this is just too long for me to wait in between being served. First dish was the chow mein which was hot in some spots of the dish and cold in others. Very strange. Almost like some elements of the dish were already cooked and then added back to the wok but not properly heated through. The flavor was really good, but the varying temperatures and amount of oil in the dish were big turnoffs. The soup dumplings (pan fried and XLB) were very hard to eat and handle with the chopsticks. Dumpling wrapper is a little too thick and the pan fried ones were just hard to eat. Both had excellent soup broth but the difficulty in consuming them was a big turnoff. Bottom line: Great flavor, poor execution. read more

Pretty nice to have a decent dumpling place in Everett to go to when I'm not wanting to drive far. Most of the items were delicious! Noodles were flavorful but overcooked (though they were kind enough to take it off bill), dumplings well balanced and juicy, food not too salty or oily like most Asian places. The soup dumplings were too big and dense, I like mine to be one biters, or at least stay on my soup spoon, but these were hard to eat. Perhaps it's because they are new, but there was a staff that hardly spoke English and does not know how to handle their seemingly easy ordering system, she took forever to get our order while I watched another staff handle 3 tables, it was frustrating, especially when she got our order wrong after spending so long going back and fourth asking another staff, I almost wanted to take the iPad away from her and do it myself. Would definitely suggest they organize their employees better, allocate her to other tasks until she can get better with English and technology. The tables were wet and didn't seem thoroughly cleaned, but place seemed clean as a whole. Will come back once hype dies down and the restaurant settles in read more

Food is good, for the most part, but it definitely is a bit overpriced imo. Each plate being nearly $15 for dumplings, veggies, appetizers, etc. it all adds up VERY quickly.. Every time I've gone here (which is about 3x) my bill has been $40 easily, with us ordering about 2 things plus drinks. Service is mostly good, too. Although you do order on your phone, so! There was one time where we waited for the bill for about 15 mins without anyone checking up on us while the place was only half busy. We were just looking around and talking for those 15mins, it took us getting up out of our seats for them to rush to us with the bill lol. Overall OK place to eat. But nothing spectacular or cheap enough to rave about. read more

Arrived on a Sunday afternoon around 4:00 pm. Seats about 50 with a few booths and mostly tables. I walked in. No reservation. The long dining table near the register was filled with smiling kids singing Christmas carols that they had learned in English while waiting for their food. One of them informed me they had learned English. In fact, the place was nearly jam packed but everyone was smiling and happy. I told the staff if there was no seating I would do take out. That appeared unacceptable from the expression on the male staff member servicing me. He found a booth for me and I was seated in 60 seconds. There was an offer to answer any questions and the server (smiling) allowed me time to choose. About three minutes I was ready. I'd studied the menu before arriving. Two versions (orders) of soup dumplings (Shrimp and beef), one order sweet n spicy dumpling, and braised beef noodle soup. Unfortunately the sweet n spicy was not being offered tonight. Accurate and conscientious attitude taking down my order in a stress free friendly manner. I'm feeling good about this place already. I ordered water. An attractive decanter filled with lemon and ice water was provided. Seven minutes later soup is served with a smile and happy eyes. Dark clear broth with short rib meat and bok choy. Lots of noodles. Seasoning subtle allowing the meat flavor to come through. Seasoning tasting like Chinese five spice but distinctly different. They offered a spicy version which I declined to try. Served hot. Good flavor. Hearty. Chop sticks employed to assist slurping the noodles down greedily. On a cold miserable day or eating soup because of a cold, this would be my choice. (Now I want to go back for more after arriving home. Tragic.) The dumplings were served steaming hot with the server pointing out which was shrimp, which was beef. Again, friendly manner. If you have had only pot stickers you're in for a treat. These dumplings are bulbous and filled with broth and meat filling. After they've cooled a little, you bite a hole into the dumpling. Drain it. Then devour the dumpling. (Or let them cool entirely and pop the whole thing in your mouth. Yummers.) The shrimp had a more pronounced flavor. The beef more subtle. The dumpling itself was cooked perfectly and shaped spot on. Good flavor. I was checked by staff to see that I was happy with my food twice. The place was crowded with mostly families and couples. All of us were busy eating. Which you may think a little strange for me to point out. But I'm serious. Look up next time you eat out and watch. In most instances people are talking and eating. This wasn't the case here. Peoples attention was on the food. I paused several times to check. I'm not exaggerating. The sound of people eating was mostly heard. Not the atypical din of a crowded eatery. People waiting to be seated watched us or were looking at the easily understandable menu. I counted six people. The vibe was cool. The food is worth the wait. One soup and two soup dumpling orders set me back around 50.00. Ten dollar tip I included for seating me quickly and the friendly professional service. I had six soup dumplings to take home. I ordered a lot, wanting to see what this place was like. Just the soup would have been enough. Dumplings are one of my favorite foods, up there with pizza on my favorite list. They didn't disappoint me. I'll come back. Just remember some of the menu items are for dine in only. Enjoy! read more

I think this is one of the best dumplings places in the Seattle area. The XLB took me a bit by surprise: initially I thought the price was steep for 6, but the sizse is huge. They're very juicy and thin skinned. But my favorite is the oan fried pork buns (4). They're extremely juicy and flavorful. The dough is just right, not too thick and not too thin. The quality is comparable to buns in Richmond, BC. My least favorite was the spicy beef noodles soup. While the meat pieces are nice and plenty, I thought the broth was lacking a bit of depth and richness. read more

Stopped by after an event on a Saturday evening. Small restaurant for the amount of traffic. About a 20 minute wait to get a seat... must register at a kiosk tucked in the corner, possibly behind some customers waiting. Order via cell phone using a QR code. Pretty fast service and everything arrived fresh/ hot. Also the order was pretty well spaced out so not of over crowd the table. Though we didn't order noodles, rice or vegetable dishes, other tables did and the quantity was large. If swing back again, probably not on a weekend evening. read more

Honestly, I was not a fan. Their dumplings are huge and very doughy. I don't think I did enough research on this restaurant. Maybe they're known for having very large dumplings, but I did not appreciate it at all. The pork fried rice has a hint of sweetness, which is a little odd. The green beans were flavorful and I liked those a lot. They also gave me a diet Coke that was very dirty. I had to do a lot of wiping and even then was skeptical drinking it. Let's just say I didn't finish it. I wish I would've taken a picture to show you all. It also was extremely carbonated. The sitting area is fairly small and definitely smells like a Chinese restaurant. The fried potstickers was not fried enough. The sear was light. You can tell what side was fried however I think if they left it to fry longer, it would have been better. We got pork and shrimp, hot and sour dumplings. It comes with a big bowl of hot and sour soup like liquid and a bunch of their large thick dumplings. The shrimp in the dumplings look like little bay shrimp instead of it being ground and mixed with the pork. I will say that it was all very flavorful. Also, the pork Xiao long bao is huge. It definitely is full of liquid, but I don't appreciate how dense the dumplings are anyway I thought their dishes were cute because it actually says dumpling world in it and I like how their spoons are large enough to fill and fit the soup dumplings, but I don't think I'll ever go back here again. read more

Wonderful place! The service was very helpful and friendly, and the dumplings were righteous. We had the spicy tofu pot stickers and they were great (though not quite as spice as the waitress warned), and the pork dumplings served in a bright red hot soup. Also great. But the stir fried green beans were my favorite....just simply outstanding. read more

We visited on a Thursday night and were seated right away. We ordered the spicy braised beef noodle soup, pan fried pork soup bun, stir fried green beans, and shrimp pork spicy wonton. This restaurant, you scan a QR code and order that way. When we originally were ordering, the wonton were not available but when we asked the server, she mentioned the cook was making some now and we would be able to order some so definitely worth asking! Overall the food was good. The noodles were nothing special but the braised beef was good. I think that was our least favorite out of the 4. Overall, it was kind of expensive. Total without tip was almost $70 and everything was priced similar to din tai fung. For it being in Everett, wish it was cheaper. read more

New dumpling restaurant and had to try it! Got there a little after their opening but before the lunch rush. Service was good, seems like they were still getting a handle on their menu and service.

All super flavorful and fresh. read more

I've been beyond excited for Dumpling World to open ever since I saw the sign up on the building. FINALLY a dumpling place in Everett and it's DELICIOUS! They just opened for their soft opening yesterday. We showed up a little late for lunch, around 2. They close for lunch as 2:30 but were more than happy to have us there. There was only one other table and they were about finished. We looked over the menu for a couple minutes just to confirm what we wanted and then placed our order. After maybe 10-15 minutes, our food started coming out. We only ordered dumplings this time but WOW they were SO good! Everything is handmade and they were bigger than expected. The Xiao Long Bao were about $15 for 6 which I was unsure of but when they were brought out, they were about twice the size of normal xiao long bao and we could tell they were made with care. The potstickers and colorful dumplings were also huge and full of flavor! My favorite dish was the Pan-Fried Pork Soup Buns - they were so full of soup and flavor. I think we'll come back just to grab those as a quick snack sometimes. We were checked on often and the lady helping us was very nice. Even though they just opened, they seemed to have their stuff down. We live very close by and will be back often! I can't recommend them enough! read more

So I came here with my sister and her boyfriend and this was our first time coming here so we got Pork & Scallion Pot Stickers, Beef Chow Mein, 2 sodas, the brown sugar milk tea, Pan-Fried Pork Soup Buns, and the Sweet & Sour Dumpling. The total they told us was 70 so my sister paid. My sister just found out they added an additional 20 dollars to our total and scammed us because the lady told us 70!! And we just found out supposedly on google that in the restaurant it was 20 per person, and it was 3 of us?, and if that was the case the total would have came out to 129? So something is wrong here. I'm so disappointed because we were new customers and I'm not coming back here unfortunately. read more

Went during their soft opening. This place is a hit! Warning, parking lot is small for the number of vehicles. Now that this place is open, I see no need to drive to Seattle. If the gold standard for Xiao Long Bao consistency is Din Tai Fung, then Dumpling World is 95% there. The last 5% would be improving the bao's skin. The nipple is still a bit too thick. The table booking and waiting system is functional but could be better. Every one was nice and food was delicious. Go try it out. I can totally see them succeeding and moving onto a larger place. read more

Bill was $120+ and the food was subpar. Fried rice was super bland & oily. Green beans had so much garlic we could barely eat them. Had the vegan dumplings & they were ok.
