I found this while looking for more affordable dumplings than what was offered where I usually went, and I'm thrilled I did. This place is an absolute delight that's well worth your time. My personal favorite dumplings are the beef and onion, but all of them are great, the soup dumplings especially. And they color code the dumplings, which is helpful if you're eating with food restrictions. There is also a pretty good variety of foods, it's not just dumplings and a few sides. A buddy of mine got sweet potato fries once, and they were pretty good, and anytime I go, my mom asks for a poke bowl. I haven't had a dish I didn't like. The boba is also good quality, and is adjustable to your tastes---you can control ice, sweetness, anc caffeine levels. The honeydew milk tea is my personal favorite. The wait time is also usually fairly short, though if you're worried, they have multiple board games along with various knick knacks to look at. It's a great spot, so I certainly reccomend checking it out. read more

Very cute place! I would definitely recommend this place to families. There isn't too much seating so it can get busy around lunch time- I went on a Friday around noon and there were a few available tables- but I can imagine that it gets busier on the weekends. There were also tons of board games! I got the strawberry fruit tea- it was wonderful. Not too sweet, had real strawberries in it with lemon slices, as well. Strong green tea flavor if you're a fan of that. Prices were great! Very affordable. I got the crab rangoons which were very good and crispy. The dumplings were alright. The pork and shrimp ones didn't really stick out to me. The beef ones were good! My favorite of the three I tried was the chicken with shiitake and bok choy. I got them pan fried, but I felt like the sides of the dumplings were a bit doughy and undercooked. Overall a very nice place for lunch and a treat! Will definitely return. read more

Came here for lunch, and it was fine! We were greeted, and told we could order from the table QR code. We got a variety of dishes, a few drinks, and sent it in. It's a pretty spacious restaurant with board games to play, a few random kitchen appliances for sale, and peacock chairs to chill in. The lady working here was really nice, and clarified a few things on the menu for me. She seemed busy with tickets, and pick up orders. The food took a while to come out, but it wasn't too bad of a wait. I wish our drink orders had come out all at the same time though. drinks: Red Bean Uji Matcha - ordered with less sugar, my MIL liked the flavor Pineapple Fruit Tea - ordered with all the sugar, my husband did not get a lot of pineapple flavor Jasmine Tea - ordered with less sugar, I liked the flavor and that the jasmine was strong Food: Cucumber Salad - it was drenched in the sauce, but it was still good. I wish it was smashed cucumber instead of sliced though Pan Fried Dumplings - it was missing a lot of crisp, but the filling was good. We got beef. Boiled Dumplings - Pork was the filling, the wrapper was good and chewy, but it nothing was stand out. Shrimp Shumai - Compared to most shumai, this was big and you could see chunks of the shrimp at the top! Chicken Teriyaki Udon - the noodle was great! I think this had the most flavor, and was the best option for the table. Considering the area, it's probably the best option y'all have, but I think having the udon will be the way to go! read more

I really enjoyed this restaurant. You can order from your table or go to the front to order. They bring the food right out and it doesn't take too long. It's hard not to order so much because everything sounds so good and is reasonably priced. Everything was pretty good but the shumai was a little bit fishy tasting. I wish there was a sauce to go with them over than soy sauce. I enjoyed my mango fruit tea and the strawberry popping boba. read more

Food is so good and lovingly handmade. I LOVE steamed dumplings and the variety they have is great

Summary: Great service, cute ambiance, average food, and good value. The restaurant was super cute and cozy and the service was superb. As soon as we walked in the staff at the counter walked through the menu with us and gave us many recommendations. We ordered at the counter, chose our own table, and they brought out the food. As for the food, I'd say that it was average. Unfortunately, the soup dumplings didn't have much soup in it, and the dessert dumplings were a bit burnt and didn't have enough filling, so they tasted like burnt sweet wontons. But the Bao Zi (pork buns) were pretty good and the best items on the menu were the regular dumplings which you can get with a mix and match of many options for fillings in your order of 6, 8, or 10 pieces. It was also nice that you could choose the cooking method for the dumplings (boiled, pan-fried, or deep-fried). read more

What a gem in West County! I found this place on Happy cow and it had good reviews so I met a couple friends here before a concert at the Factory on a Tuesday evening since it's close. My friend and I ordered boiled and pan fried tofu dumplings to share. The pan fried ones were better than the boiled but both were tasty. Staff was very friendly and helpful. I got some milk tea and it was yummy. My Main suggestion to make this place better is to clearly mark what is vegan on the menu because it was very confusing. I also had a greens salad with ginger dressing which was delicious. I accidentally ordered spring rolls they were ok. Dining area is ample and I thought the decor about history of dumplings was interesting! read more

Try: Dumplings, Buns, and Milk Tea! Why: I needed a quick bite that wasn't going to totally fill me up (or deplete my wallet) and this was the spot! I tried a variety of boiled Dumplings (pork and chicken) and Traditional Pork Buns with a Taro Milk Tea. My fav was the Chicken with Mushroom and Bok Choi, as well as the Pork Buns. The dumpling sauce was also addicting. Food was great and came out fairly quick. Taro Milk Tea was a bit watery but still refreshing, and it came out within minutes. Notes: Cute restaurant in a town center. Neat wall decor, including the history of dumplings and shelves of toys, games, plants, and decor. The service was top-notch as worker welcomed me with a friendly smile and provided great recommendations. Great place for a quick bite! read more

I was really looking forward to this place but sadly, I will not be back. The service was good, the ambiance was nice. Free fresh lemon water, cute decor and they even had games in the dining room. We were the 1st customers and there was a puddle of water in front of the counter that I advised them of. Safety risk but no biggie. I ordered 10 dumplings in 3 different flavors (chicken and mushroom, shrimp and veggie and a purple one. All were not good. My daughter got chicken ramen which first came out with a hair and had to be remade. The 2nd bowl was also not good very bland. I liked my daughter's fruit tea but my drink (blue flower tea maybe?) was not great. The egg rolls were the best thing. Honestly, I spent around $50 and completely left a full bowl of ramen, a full tea and 7.5 out of 10 dumplings on the table. The food was fresh and piping hot. I wanted to love it but this place isnt for me. read more

An amazing spot in Chesterfield! The name here does not lie, the dumpling and tea selection is great. You can choose between boiled, pan seared or deep fried for your dumplings! There are hot & iced teas, bobas and fruit teas or smoothies to choose from. The menu is well diverse & will leave you wanting to try everything!! All of the food comes out nice & hot. Note that the steamed buns do take a bit longer (around 20-25 min) but everything is super fresh! The ambiance of the place is great with card games and board games to play & beautiful decor. We will be returning to try the poke & the tiramisu milk tea :) read more

Dumplings & Tea - Chicken Dumpling - Chinese Near Me - Chesterfield, Missouri

It was a solid good for me. Nothing memorable, it tasted fine, and I thought it was cool that they dyed the wrappers so you're able to distinguish which flavor you're about to eat. Although my party and I were only able to know about that after looking at the painted walls. It wasn't explained to us by an employee. The employee dropped off our orders to the table, but we were told to grab utensils up at the counter, which is where she just came from. I think this place is overpriced for what it is. I'd rather make a drive to tiger soup dumplings or STL Dumplings. read more

My daughter had tried this place with her friends and recommended it. We had just gotten home from the Airport and decided to stop in and grab dinner. I was excited to try something new. The place is decorated really nicely. First thing you notice when you walk in is very soft and relaxing music. We walked up to the counter to place our order and the woman was a bit dry. She said it would take 12 minutes for our order to be ready but it really took about 30 minutes. We ordered the chicken and the shrimp dumplings pan fried. Also the crab rangoons. The shrimp dumplings were really good while the chicken ones not as much. They kind of looked like beef when you ate it which was weird to me since I don't eat beef. The crab rangoons were good. We also ordered the chicken teriyaki udon noodles stir fried and the salmon poke bowl. These were very good and a good size portion. Unfortunately for the price I don't think we will be coming very often. We paid over $90 for dinner for 4. read more

Food: 2 Stars Service: 4 Stars Incredibly disappointed after reading multiple raving reviews. Pros: - Ease of placing an order. Grab a table, scan the QR code, and order away. I love that you can continue to place orders while you eat, holding off on checking out until you're really sure you're done eating. - There's a decent variety of menu items to choose from from dumplings to ramen, poke bowls and bubble tea. Come in for a snack or a full blown meal. - Texture of bao zi were fluffy. Fillings were generous. - Service was prompt, but there isn't a lot of interaction to begin with. The guy behind the counter was pretty cold. Couldn't tell if he was having a bad day or if he just didn't care to deal with us. Cons: - Lack of condiments for dumplings and bao buns. There's a single bottle of soy sauce on the tables, but no chili oil or vinegar to elevate the flavors. They do sell small jars of chili oil for $6 at the counter. - This is really a personal preference, but I hate when dumpling fillings are mixed to create a paste (literally like wet cement). It creates such a weird and gross texture in the mouth, that I much prefer there to be small chunks (like small bits of green onion or garlic) so I know what I'm actually eating. - Didn't like any of the flavors (pork, beef, chicken). Most were bland, but even soy sauce couldn't save them. Some items had an off-putting after taste. -Our milk teas were a little bland/watered down. Would not return. Don't recommend. read more

Cute little shop! Order at the counter or at your table using the QR code menu. The dumplings were pretty good, but I wasn't knocked out by them. Most of the off-menu soup dumplings (Xiao Long Bao) contained broth, but not all. A couple were already broken open. The pork, shrimp and chive dumplings were average. I ordered the Taro tea, 1/2 sugar with boba. It was delicious. read more

First time here and I already look forward to the next time. So many great options and we tried a lot of different offerings. We sat inside and ordered directly from our table. You can order straight from the website/app and each person can place their own order. When you are done, close out when you are ready! It is great that you can choose to mix and match dumplings (color coordinated by flavor!) or you can order them on their own. We enjoyed the pork & chicken dumplings which both exuded a ton of flavor and zing. The edamame and crab rangoons were substantial and great starters for us. We also shared some pork buns & tonkatsu ramen, again both fantastic! Everything we had was full of flavor. There are many options we have yet to try so we will have to come back soon!! read more

Absolutely AMAZING food, and milk tea! :) I personally like how they have a QR code to scan at each table with the table number. It brings you to their menu online. From there you place your order & pay and it made it so nice and simple.

We came here for dinner on our first night in St Louis. It was near our home so thought it was worth visiting. When we entered it was busy, front desk told us to order online. I wasn't able to get the free dessert with promo code. Finally I gave up and ordered the pan fried buns along with 2 ramen bowls. It took a while but came out hot. Ramen was average but buns were totally worth it. The waiter felt bad so gave us free dessert which was nice. Price was kinda expensive at over $50. However buns are worth trying. read more

Dumplings & Tea - Traditionla Pork Bun - Chinese Near Me - Chesterfield, Missouri

Quaint Asian Dumpling and Noodle eatery with relaxing Zen ambience. Fast casual dining with friendly and helpful service, and good for takeout. Variety of yummy dumpling "fillings" of meat, shrimp and veggie to choose; these are homemade and cooked to order boiled, pan-fried or deep fried. Noodle dishes are either Ramen type with broth, or Udon type stir-fried, also choosing your protein (beef, pork, chicken, shrimp, tofu) when ordering. Also have Build your own Poke Bowls and plenty of specialty tea drinks. Overall solid 4+ for my 1st experience. Expect pricing $10-15pp for a meal, plus beverage. While both noodle dishes we tried were excellent, I preferred the Udon stir-fried version. The pork was flavorful and blended well with mixed veggies, eggs and noodles. The Ramen version had a mild broth, and thinly sliced tender pork. For Dumplings starter, we shared a variety - 4 faves were Chicken and Shiitake mushrooms and Bok Choy, Pork and Shrimp with Chives, Beef with onions, and Pork with Chinese veggies - all tasty in house-made dumpling wrappers, and prepared either boiled, pan-fried or deep fried. We ordered pan-fried, and they were a bit over-fried and slightly greasy, not quite as I expected yet still good to eat. The dipping sauce had a hint of soy and sweetness. Although we tried the Shrimp with Zucchini and Egg, I voted for others. Plenty of good options for Vegetarians, but limited on their GF selections. Ambience was relaxing and quiet at lunch hour on a weekday. They've only been open a few weeks, so need to get the word out to check out new place. All in all, satisfying dining experience so I'll be back! ENJOY! read more

We were in town for a soccer tournament, and I had a couple of recommendations to check this place out. It offered something for all of us, so we decided to try it out. I saw that there was an option to order online, but I wasn't sure if it was a sit-down restaurant or not, so I decided to wait to order there. There was only one group ahead of us so the wait wasn't too bad. We decided to order the traditional pork bao zi pan fried, pan fried pork and shrimp dumplings, a poke bowl and a mango madness smoothie. We all enjoyed everything we tried! I wish we would have picked different types of dumplings so we could try the different types they had. Now, we will have to wait for the next soccer tournament to try other items in the menu! read more

Huge parking lot, should not be an issue finding a spot. Cute decor and wall art. Was empty on a weekend evening but food was very fresh. Staff was friendly. Called in the order to save time. Online ordering wasn't working yet. The assessment, in order of awesome: 1. Pork and veggie dumplings. Pan fried. The flavor of this was my favorite. The skin was slightly thick, to my liking. 2. Pork bun. Flavor was good. The bun was good but slightly thicker than I expected. It was getting towards bao. 3. Chicken dumplings. Pan fried. Solid flavor. Would get it again. 4. Boba tea. Boba texture was amazing. Very soft. Not so chewy. You could tell it was fresh. The tea was good, slightly sweet for my taste at 25%. Was good and refreshing. 5. Dessert red bean. I didn't expect this to be deep fried with all the toppings. Not my fav but if you like sweet, this covers it. They didn't have sesame when I went. I'll be back for the amazing dumplings and the pork bun. Perhaps the ramen too. The branding is nice. Everything, to include the containers has their logo and the bag is a reusable! They have gift cards, a dear friend hooked me up! read more

I came here with my kids because they love dumplings. I loved the feel of the place, the seating , and the games. The staff was really nice. I liked that there were tons of dumplings options and you can mix and match. My main issue is that I (and my children) just didn't love the dumplings that much. So for that reason I would say it is 3.5 stars and I wouldn't go back. read more

This place has potential. It's nice to see more boba and casual dumpling places popping up. Service is standard. Due to employee shortage, they currently have ordering done through an app which is actually a bit annoying and I almost left at how frustrating it was to navigate it (it works much better if the menu is more concise). Fortunately, it was a slow night and they took our order the old fashioned way. Food itself was tasty. We tried the baos and dumplings. I preferred the pan fried baos and did appreciate the colorful dumplings. The garlic dipping sauce was unique and good. I'd stop by again. read more

The place had soothing background music and the place was nicely decorated. We ordered at the cash register but didn't know we could order online at the tables. We ordered the mango boba tea which was a good. I do wish the drink was more chilled. The pan fried dumplings were amazing. The dough was soft at the same time crispy filled with generous amount of meat. The sauce paired well with the dumplings which made it juicier. I would definitely order their dumplings again. We ordered the beef udon. I thought the noodles and beef were cooked to perfection. read more

Oh my goodness! I know it's only January, but if you asked what was the best restaurant of 2023, I would say it's "Dumplings and Tea". What a great start off to a new year! My friends and I checked this new spot today and every single thing that we ordered was delicious! * pan-fried dumplings * steamed bao Xi * boiled dumplings * beef udon * Chinese hamburger (spicy) * beef on fire * poke bowl (donburi) * bubble tea Recommended sauces for the dumplings: Garlic, Ginger, and Sweet Chile! The dumplings were juicy and flavorful. You can order 6, 8, or 12. I got two orders of six (twelve)- six boiled and six pan-fried Boiled ones were soft and chewy. I loved that it wasnt too thin to break apart or too thick to be overwhelmingly stuffy. Pan-fried were crispy on the outside and juicy on the inside. My friends loved their Ramen and their Udon noodles, so make sure to get at least one of the Noodle dishes. Bubble teas with perfect boba! Cool stuff to know: 1) if you forgot which meat you got for the dumplings, check their wall out and see which protein is next to the color of your dumpling. 2) all sauces for the dumplings are made in-house. 3) there are sauces you can purchase to take home, next to the counter. There's just too many great stuff going on here, I can't mention it all. Y'all just have to go and check it out! Friendly staff, convenient parking! Highly recommended! read more

Wow, this new Asian fusion place has everything! Ramen, poke, udon, dumplings, milk tea, smoothies, board games, what a place! Edit: be careful / need to clarify, the signature fresh milk, is literally fresh milk? Not milk tea? Not sure need to confirm when you order. Brand new in chesterfield before the outlet mall, this place has a decent amount of space for seating for you to chill, eat, play board games, or do your own thing. We got to order and try as many things as we could: all the dumplings / buns can be boiled, pan fry, or deep fried. I think if you're going to do take out, avoid the deep fried dumplings; they didnt seem to last that well, very crispy when they first come out. We got to try their traditional pork bun, beef bun, tonkatsu ramen, beef teriyaki udon, one of each of their dumplings, and a spicy donburi poke bowl. We also ordered a Hong Kong milk tea and fresh mixed fruit tea which were awesome! Boba was fresh, chewy, and delicious, teas were strong but also not too sweet (half sugar) Everything was tasted perfect. The buns were tasty, not too salty but flavorful and awesome The dumplings were great! They are color coded based on what's inside, and big and delicious. Ramen is darn good too. Not too salty but flavorful. The tonkatsu pork was great! Soft, tender and delicious Udon is a stir fry style (not soup), just an overall great dish Poke bowl is fresh and big with a good amount of fish. (we ordered half rice half greens) Great flavor, not overpowering If they keep up the quality, this place will be popping off soon, get here early while you can! Man we will be back, no clue what we're gonna get next time, everything is so good read more

I had high hopes for this place. I don't care for the popular soup dumplings, so I was excited to see they offered traditional pork xiao long bao. I ordered the steamed pork buns and the pan-fried chicken dumplings. The pork buns tasted machine-made, like the kind you find in an Asian grocery store freezer. The pork was tough and lacked flavor. The dumpling wrappers were thick and chewy, and the filling was bland and disappointing. read more

They didn't have the black peach tea I would have liked but the girl helping behind the counter made other suggestions and I took her up on the fruit tea with boba and 25% sweetness.

The place was very clean and everyone looked like they were enjoying themselves. There were board games you can play and the vibe was very chill. read more

One of my coworkers recommended this for lunch today and I'm glad he did! It was delicious! He got the Chinese Hamburger, he said it was pork and he absolutely would get it again. I got the pan fried beef with onion dumplings and the shrimp with zucchini dumplings- which were delectable. They had great flavor! I will 1000% be back for lunch to try more of the menu. I love the idea of everyone getting different things to try and this is a place I'd want to do that at! Enjoy!! read more

I was excited for a new Asian joint in Chesterfield and especially one that has boba teas on their menu. I was with my two kids so it reading the menu happened in a hurry. I got the pork vegetable dumplings-steamed. I was sad none of the dairy milk teas didn't really contain teas (exception of Matcha one), but were more flavored fresh milk with boba. I got the Oreo one half sweet. It was very good but wish it had tea in it. They do have non-dairy milk tea, which I will have to try next time. The dumplings were fresh and delicious. The soy ginger sauce dip it came with was a necessity. It's very fresh and definitely home made. My son has a lot of food allergies so I asked a lot of questions and he was able to enjoy the strawberry smoothie(non-dairy) version. They were very patient with my questions etc. read more
