Delicious braised beef noodle soup and so affordable. A bowl was $10.59 and it was so much meat and noodles! We had the hot oil wontons (they weren't really spicy so we added more chili sauce). The garlicky cucumber salad isn't spicy. The dumplings were actually just okay. We got the pork and Napa cabbage fried dumplings. I'd def come back! read more

Dumplings & Things - Beef noodle soup - Chinese Near Me - Sunnyside, New York

Randomly saw this place and decided to give it a try! The bao were very tasty and I really enjoyed the Chinese greens they are just steamed so I like them plain. It's nothing fancy but healthy. It was missing hoisen sauce that Chinese places usually put on top. They only had their house soy vinegar and hot sauce for the dumplings. The dumplings were ok, the skin is a bit too chewy for my taste. Overall it's a nice little spot, they have a bathroom and it's clean. It's self service style where you order and they bring you the food but then you clean up after yourself and get your own utensils and condiments. Cash only spot!!! read more

Dumplings & Things - N2. Braised Beef Noodle Soup - Chinese Near Me - Sunnyside, New York

After debuting a decade ago in Brooklyn and met with decent fanfare, I was super excited when Dumplings & Things decided to make Sunnyside the destination for their second location. They chose the perfect part of Queens where this kind of Chinese fare was harder to find (#1) and have remained a focal point for eateries in the hood. The place is small but with enough tables in a casual setting for folks to grab a quick meal on the go. As things become more pricey in this part of town, D&T would be considered an affordable option. The folks that run this joint are some of the nicest in the hood and are the main reason I continue to come here. Their variety of food includes a slew of dumplings, noodles, soups, rice platters, and baos. It's important to note that it's not so much catered to Flushing taste buds, so most of the food is likely to be graded on a slight curve. I can't say that I think their namesake dumplings are always a thumbs up, I do think the noodle soups are where they might do best. The braised beef noodle is pretty standard, but given the rest of the options in the hood, this is really as good as it gets. The other items such as their grilled pork / chicken / shrimp over rice and baos are a nice touch as well. For the latter, the "melt in your mouth" pork belly is probably the one to get. The hot oil wontons are a surprise and I appreciate the fact they serve kimchi, even if it feels somewhat random. _____________ (#1) Not including the over saturated Chinese-American takeout. read more

I can see why this is an average place. This is a serve yourself place and the person at the front wasn't even that friendly. I get that it is cash only. So, that's one downside. I guess since there are banks everywhere that drawing cash at a reputable place isn't so hard. Unto the food the dumplings that I ordered were good, but the noodle soup wasn't so great. I wish it was, but it was subpar and needed more flavoring. I had to add a lot of hotsauce. All in all, I'm not sure if I'll return. read more

Really great food, recommend getting the Saltena (imagine a soup dumpling mixed with an empanada). I also tried the fried chicken sandwich and it did not disappoint. Well worth the trip and great price read more

It's been a while since I've been here. I used to love the chicken dumplings here but it's no longer as good as it used to be. The dumplings do not seem fresh. The dumpling skin is flaky or doughy. The dumplings are no longer stuffed with filling. There is a lot of empty space and the filling is not flavorful. The chicken dumplings are now just average and not authenic tasting. Don't even get the vegetable dumplings. They are terrible. Bland and stale. I threw mine out. read more

I really love the chicken shrimp & cilantro dumplings. They weren't small and it was good. In the other hand, the garlicky cucumbers was absolutely plain !!! I thought would've tasted like the one I had at Nan Xiang Express. Unfortunately, it's just plain cucumbers with garlic and I think white vinegar. I am a bit disappointed but it was $3.95 for if, so eh !!! read more

I've been here before and don't remember it being this bad. I tried their dumplings this time. Before I got the shrimp over rice which was alright. The dumplings were terrible. Seriously, I couldn't even finish them. Frozen dumplings from Trader Joe's are SIGNIFICANTLY better. I'm sad to right such a poor review as I love Sunnyside and supporting the local businesses... but I truly don't think you should waste your money on these dumplings. Oh, and it's cash only but they still tax you. The dumplings are $4.50 but I was charged $4.90........ read more

we ordered some dumplings on DoorDash because i was really in the mood for them. we tried pork and cabbage, pork and chive, shrimp chicken & cilantro, and beef kimchi dumplings. They were all okay. nothing was amazing. i have to say i was disappointed. read more

Ordered the pork and chive dumpling and the braised beef noodle soup. Worst beef noodle soup and dumplings I've ever had. The soup tasted bland and had zero flavor. I had to experiment and add soy sauce + siracha but it was hopeless. The brisket was way over cooked. The dumplings looked crispy on appearance but were an odd texture and were too doughy. Save your time and money and make instant noodles and dumplings at home. read more

divalicous food soooo good!! the service...mama they don't play i love spicy beef and kimchi dumplings! coming back tomorrow

Came here for some veggie dumplings during lunch. Dumplings cost $4.25 which is a pretty solid deal. It's cash only, which is kinda funny because they charge tax on food as well (hmmmmmm) You get about 5 dumplings in your order. I ordered it for takeout and it took about 10 minutes or so to receive my order. You can get it either fried or steamed. I chose pan fried, but I gotta try it out steamed next time. Is it the world's best dumplings? No, but it satisfies my cravings. read more

We ordered the cucumber salad, and all bao- variations, scallion pancakes and spicy beef and kimchi. The bao buns were perfect fluffy clouds, melting in your mouth. The vegetables on them were marinated and tasted fantastic! The beef-kimchi, was mildly spicy and so flavorful. If you are in the fence about ordering here, please do. You won't be disappointed. read more

I ordered the veggie dumplings and the pork and chive. We found the fillings to be fresh and pretty good. But I do have to say that the dumplings were a bit too doughy. Like too much dough was used... The place was clean and well taken care of. Definitely satisfied my craving for dumplings. Also, they're cash only so keep that in mind. read more

Lady at the front was kind and helpful but food was super bland. Had the wonton noodle soup. I could've had better soup at a Chinese takeout for $3. Hot sauce on table was also useless. I would not return. read more

I pass this place coming back from the subway and have always been curious-- today my partner and I tried it! We ordered the pork and chive dumplings, pork belly bao, and each had the beef and pork belly noodle soup. A lot of food but happy we tried everything. The beef in the noodle soup was so tender and buttery. Pork bao was delicious, dumplings were cooked perfectly. I'm seeing a lot of remarks about blandness-- maybe it's people who ordered delivery, but when we ate at the restaurant, there were ample sauces at the table: vinegar, sriracha and soy sauce. We finished off with lemonade and it was as refreshing! I would recommend supporting this local gem! read more

Cash only! So don't try to impress them with your fancy colorful credit card or Apple wallet. Show them the real money! My husband ordered to go from this place once before and we thought the food was pretty good, less oil. So one night we decided to pay a visit. The place is small, enough for 10-12. You place the order with a cashier and she would bring your food to the table once ready. First, we had the hot and sour soup. It was very good. We also had shrimp and chicken dumplings. I thought it was ok. Then hubby had grilled chicken over rice and I had grilled shrimp over rice. We also ordered a small order of steamed bok choy. I liked the grilled shrimp over rice. No oil at all for this dish. Loved it! This would be the only dish I would here, and sometimes would try hot and sour soup again. The service was ok. read more

Very well aware this is COVID19 time. Used to be a consistent patron when I frequented the area. Yesterday I decided to pick up lunch for my guys at work. I raved on how good the food was prior to picking up for my co workers To make a long story short, the braised beef soup I ordered was nothing but tendons on the meat. You would think the beef was a large piece of chewing gum. The scallion pancakes not only didn't have scallions, but were as hard as hockey pucks. On top of all everything, this place is a cash only business and they still charge tax. I love Sunnyside and miss coming to the area. It's been a while since I eaten in this establishment but man this place has taken a turn for the worst. read more

When Dumplings & Things first opened, my husband and I went pretty regularly. After some time, we had noticed the quality went down significantly. One of the main issues we always ran into was the beef being super fatty. So, we stopped going for quite a bit of time. Tonight, after a few years, we decided to give them another shot and ugh, what a sad return it was! We ordered the pork & Napa cabbage dumplings, sesame and peanut sauce noodles and garlicky cucumber salad. - Dumplings: fine, not great, but probably one of the better dumplings in the hood. - Sesame noodles with peanut sauce: sad, sad, sad! Soooo bland and I could've made a better version at home. Sauce was super thin and pretty flavorless. A few cilantro sprigs were the saving grace. - Garlicky cucumbers: what a joke! I'm so sad, this used to be my favorite dish. It used to be a nice sized portion, filled with so much garlic it could scare away a vampire, but now, it's barely a few bites and an even smaller portion of flavor. Womp womp. Safe to say, we won't be back again. read more

Dumplings & Things - Garlicky cucumber salad - $3.25 - used to be soooo full of flavor and a decent portion. Now, bland and tiny. What a letdown. - Chinese Near Me - Sunnyside, New York

Finally! A dumpling place in Sunnyside! When we arrived here we ordered quickly. This place accepts cash for now. The menu features rice platters (pork, beef, chicken, and shrimp), dumplings, baos, and sides. A small place located near the 7 train, and across the street from Rite Aid, it makes for a prime location for a successful business. Even though the decor looks simple, the wooden tables, stools for chairs, and a chalk board menu give the place intimacy. This place has potential to make a lasting positive impression in Sunnyside. read more

Triple honestly this dumpling place is not the best one! I just don't understand why people said this place is good with dumplings. Well I guess we all have different taste buds. First time being here after reading the reviews online so I decided to give them a try today which was again disappointing. First when I walked in to this place the girl who works at the front desk doesn't even bother saying hello so took the star off. Inside looks clean with nice decorated menu. It has 9 seats. I ordered scallion pancake, braised beef noodle soup, vegetable dumplings, bao, sesame noodle with peanut sauce and the hot oil wonton. It was very disappointing with all of my orders nothing that tasted that good or wow! The scallion pancake! This is not a pancake! They used too much flour and it just thick. Ohhh the braised beef noodle soup! It smells! I'm very very sensitive when it comes to food. The meat was the one that made the smell to my noodles. Vegetable dumpling they deep fried it twice! Not once! It's twice because I work at restaurant. The hot oil wonton! This is not what I expected! Someone wrote a review saying it was spicy! Hahaha no it's not! There's no hot chili oil on top! It's just a soy sauce at the table they put in. Overall this dumpling place was very disappointing! I didn't like it. read more

I love this place!! It is an amazing small business with attentive staff (who will learn your name if you frequent it often) and delicious food. My personal faves are the braised beef baos and pork and chives dumplings. There's also mochi ice cream! YUM The best food are the kind that you can still imagine the flavor after. On top of that, you can expect QUICK service. It's a small space with cute decor that also leaves a great impression. This is a must when in the neighborhood and even worth traveling to, too! read more

Read some good reviews so decided to check this place out. We got the spicy beef and kimchi dumplings (pan fried), wonton soup, chicken fried rice (portion is HUGE), pork bao buns, and a water all for 26$! Food was very good, easily would have paid way more for how good it taste. Definitely will be back. The actual restaurant doesn't have the best ambiance but I think the food easily makes up for it. read more

I really, really like this place. Its menu is fairly limited but they nail their dishes and price them reasonably. I always think ordering fried rice is kind of silly but I took a chance on an extra lazy day once and became addicted to theirs. The Chinese sausage is the perfect combination of salty and sweet, and I use the dumpling dipping sauce and Trader Joe's chili onion crunch to add extra flavor. It's just comfort in a bowl! Re: the dumplings, they are more American Chinese food style. But damnit, they do that style well! Not reminiscent of the authentic Chinese dumpling spots like Tianjin Dumpling house, mostly because the skin is thicker and the meat is denser. You get 5 for 5.50 and they're super filling and delicious. The food just feels fresh and made with care. Not sure how else to put it. Definitely give this local small business a shot! read more

I am excited to find a dumpling place close by. The menu prices are about equal/a little pricier than what I am use to but for the convenience it's worth it. Want to try the dumplings as my first meal. I order 'Melt in Your Mouth Pork Belly Noodles' to go since I am hungry and all the tables are filled (which is a good sign!). Issue #1: Didn't expect to wait 30 minutes for my order to be ready. On the other hand, it's freshly-made so that is good. I am hoping my timing is bad and it really doesn't normally take this long next time I go. Issue #2: Soggy noodles since it was in the broth and was saturated by the time I ate it. The noodles fell apart while eating it. For takeout, recommend asking to separate the noodles and broth. Since it's thin white noodles, it's not my favorite (that's more of a personal preference.) so it's unlikely I would order noodles. Appreciate that they don't use MSG...since it doesn't sit well with me. I can't wait to try the other items on the menu. read more

I have to remind myself to NOT eat here again. Their food is always pretty bad and not flavorful and the offer only plastic spoons even if you dine in. Their ramen in the soup tastes greasy. I've gotten the melt in your mouth pork noodle soup a few times each time forgetting I've gotten it before and it's always bad. I only give this place 2 stars because it's relatively quiet and could be a good place to sit alone and study with a bright light. Besides that this places stinks! read more

Best to stick to the dumplings and avoid the "things". Had the dumplings cold, and they were still great. For a low price of $3, you get 6 large dumplings that are stuffed with meat. Definitely a great value. I ate them cold and they were still decent. Crispy shell & tender inside. Enjoy with soy sauce and vinegar. The fried rice is pretty mediocre, though. When they say 'Chicken fried rice', it is simply rice and a few bits of chicken (and a looot of oil). For $10, this is a terrible deal compared to the dumplings. read more

This place was ok. The prices were great, most of the dumplings we have were good. The place is clean and comfortable to dine in. The guy who you put your order in with was very nice and patience, we had no clue what we wanted to get, and some of the ingredients we were not familiar with. Overall though we were happy with what we got. I would recommend this place if your in the mood for some decent dumplings, this place isn't bad read more
