Food was fantastically home made and delicious. The beef pancake, chives in a box, noodles and dumplings were so good. The noodles had the best chew I've had, in a long time, and the size of the bowl was huge. The soup that out neighboring table ordered was huge too. The shrimp hagow was good like most dim sum places. The pan fried dumpling was not the best I've had, but still delicious. I can't wait to try their xlb and other dumpling flavors. We had already ordered way too much for 2 people. They ran out of the boba sesame dessert. Service was nice. The plaza is ghetto looking but inside is fine. Hole in the wall places are sometimes gems. read more

They make fresh dumplings and many more items! Very nice little mom and pop spot, clean inside and the guy up front is super nice and helpful. Love this place! All dumplings are delicious! :) read more

My go to place for home cook taste. Ordered XLB, pan fried Shanghai dumpling, pea sprout, salt and peppered fish and crispy golden tofu. Service is very fast as usual, and at 5:30 we were the only table but there are many take out orders on the table. When we finished that take out table was never empty. I forgot to take pictures of the rest of the food as I was quite hungry. read more

Epic Dumpling - XLB and peasprout - Dim Sum Near Me - Sunnyvale, California

Full transparency... I haven't visited the business yet, but a friend shared food from that place, and it was delicious!

Got the fried chicken bento for lunch and I was impressed by one portion size! There was a huge amount of fried chicken and rice. It lasted me more than 1 meal. I liked the minced pork under the eggs but wish it was less salty/oily. It tasted great with the rice though. The cabbage side was also tasty but a little too oily for me too. All the flavors of the different sides worked well together though. Would be curious to try their dumplings! read more

Epic Dumpling - chicken bento - Dim Sum Near Me - Sunnyvale, California

Our friend wanted a double date lunch locally and I suggested Epic Dumpling. I had a craving for dumplings, specially XLB's & Shanghai pan fried soup dumplings. Epic Dumpling is chronically busy, they do loads of takeaways. How do I know? Just show up and you will see loads of people hovering about the small entry way waiting for their goodie bags. I always order the crab pork soup dumplings & the original bc the OG is the OG. Both are great. The har gao, pan fried soup dumplings, and sui mai are also great! I did not previously order the dan dan noodles so I asked for it this time. The verdict? Nope, did not care for it. I'm sticking with the dumplings & the veggie side dishes. read more

Affordable and good quality Chinese food in Sunnyvale! This restaurant was tucked away in a small plaza near the main street. The times I have come here, parking hasn't been an issue, but the parking lot does not offer a lot of spots, so that is one thing to keep in mind. At the front of the restaurant, you have open window access of someone making the dumplings fresh, which is nice to know you're getting handmade dumplings! When I first dined here, my friend and I ordered 3 things to share: stir fried green beans, crab xiao long baos, and dan dan noodles. The dish that stood out the most to me were the green beans as I felt like they're the most flavorful stir fried green beans I had recently. The xiao long baos were good and super juicy, however I didn't taste too much of the crab flavor. Dan dan noodles were standard but I liked it came with its own chili sauce that you can also take home! I would say the portion size for the dan dan noodles were HUGE, 3-4 people could've shared that. We were full and even had leftovers for both of us to bring back, all for roughly $20 per person. I would definitely come back to try more of their dumplings and other dishes. read more

Super hole in the wall find! I haven't had handmade dumplings outside of home, so finding this spot was quite surprising. Most of the dumplings I think are handmade. There are some exceptions (like the chocolate XLB) but I thought most of it tasted delicious - if you don't mind the thicker dough used for the dumplings and buns. I thought it added nice texture although that means you get fuller faster. So we definitely over ordered. If there was one thing I wasn't a fan of, it was the green onion egg pancakes rolls :( I think it fell short on texture since the egg and pancake were soft and in turn soggy in the middle. I was looking forward to this the most thinking it was going to share the same consistency as the green onion pancake typically at Chinese establishments but it did not. I also enjoyed the combination chowmein in addition to the various dumplings. Though, the picture showing thin egg noodles on the app was a bit misleading because we received lô mein noodles instead. Nonetheless, I was okay with it because I love thick noodles. The har gao was also one of my favorites! The skin wasn't dry or too thick and didn't fall apart even after cooking. It also reheated very nicely - a lot of the dumplings we got reheated nicely (needless to say we had leftovers to take home) The custard buns were also a bit disappointing. The custard flavor was light but there was too much starch/flour in the filling so it was goopy and smelled gummy. Food was brought out fairly quick after being ordered. There was only one server waiting on all the tables so things didn't necessarily get missed but took a little bit to get to us, which wasn't an issue because he remembered. Would I come back? Yes :) love me some dumplings! read more

Delicious little hole in the wall dumpling place, serving hot Chinese food in a dimly lit restaurant. :) You know it's a great sign when you see older Chinese aunties in the shop window expertly wrapping hundreds of dumplings. True to its name, the dumpling selection on the menu is expansive and all the dumplings are really good. They also have other things (non-dumpling) on their menu. There were definitely a few standout dishes and a few I thought were just okay. GREAT (would order again) - hot and sour soup - salt pepper chicken wings - salt pepper fried fish - soup dumplings (xiao long bao) - spicy wonton dumplings - stir fry green beans - pretty much any dumpling on the menu, they're freshly made! - egg yolk and boba black sesame balls Just ok (wouldn't get again) - pan fried soup dumplings (shen jian bao) - green onion pancake - chow fun (noodle) I think this is one of my favorite places for soup dumplings now. The soup had great flavor, the filling held up well, the skin was not too thick or thin and didn't break easily. The other standout on the menu were the black sesame balls, filled with hot gooey sweet yolk and boba. They were freshly fried and amazing! They're not on the regular menu and was a special when I came here (May 2025) This truly is a hole in the wall place located in an unassuming plaza, so it was quite dark inside and the seating and bathroom was limited. Come for the food not the ambiance. read more

We've ordered delivery from this place a few times. We ate the braised pork over rice and I've enjoyed it both times. It's a simple but hearty dish with plenty of pork. Flavor here is mild but still tasty. The dish also gives you some vegetables and boiled eggs. read more

This is a small restaurant tucked on a side street. I came with my family right when they opened in the afternoon and there were other parties that filed in right after. This place operates by ordering through an online system. We opted for two orders of the Shanghai XLB, the cucumber salad, and pork shrimp and chive dumplings. The dumplings were fantastic and very flavorful. The XLB had a mild flavor and was filled with a good amount of meat. The cucumber salad was refreshing and a nice palate cleanser. There are many bits of raw garlic so if that's not something you enjoy, just pick it off because the salad was great. The service was quick and the prices of the dishes were very reasonable. I believe we ordered a total of 10 dishes and paid $120 before tax. The price per dish averaged ~$12 which is a great deal. I'm definitely come back with my family. read more

Found a really nice hole in a wall dumpling place! This place was a gem, the employees are so nice and felt very homey/family restaurant. Some dumplings are vegetarian or had no meat and they were very special and very clean tasting. I really enjoyed the different types of dumplings we ordered. The hot and sour soup was also a good appetizer for a group. We ordered garlic veggies and these were so good as usual. This place is relatively inexpensive compared to all the other places in the area and is such a great find. We will definitely be coming back as we heard the beef rolls are great and want to try next time. read more

REALLLLLY good dim sum. However, the shrimp and chive dumplings tasted like soap. 4 stars because those were horrible, but everything else was beyond 5/5. Wait time was a little long, over the expected time on DoorDash for pickup, but I don't mind, the food makes up for it. read more

Epic Dumpling - Dim Sum Near Me - Sunnyvale, California

I went with a friend who is vegetarian and the menu has a variety of options. We ordered the chive and egg dumplings, eggplant with basil, and the chocolate xiao long bao. The dough used for the dumplings was chewy and tender. The eggplant dish was flavorful and had a nice garlic and basil flavor. The service was quick and the staff was attentive and friendly. The place had a cozy vibe like a family restaurant. read more

Came for lunch on the weekend. Epic Dumpling wasn't too packed, and we noticed they service a lot of take-out orders. We got the Dan Dan noodle (8/10), garlic green onion pancake (8/10), and pork and cabbage dumplings (8/10). The noodles tasted homemade, fresh, and chewy. We thought the sauce was okay but needed a little something more. The garlic green onion pancake wasn't too oily, and the garlic was fresh. The dumplings were yummy but a bit small. Overall, very reasonable for the price. Service was friendly and prompt. read more

Epic Dumpling - Dan Dan Fresh Noodle - Dim Sum Near Me - Sunnyvale, California

I was excited to try this place. The menu looked extensive and a bunch of vegetarian options too. Ambiance is interesting and welcoming with scenes from ancient chinese cooking. We ordered a bunch of dishes. Service was super quick. They were good but I did find most of the dishes had a little too much oil and were on the sweeter side. Vegetarian Fried rice 4/5 - It enjoyed it! String Beans 4/5 - a lil oily and tasted sweet with onions Red bean buns 3/5 - more dough than red bean Vegetarian Tofu - 2/5 - was too sweet!! read more

Had a major dumpling craving, followed by a pan disaster while cooking at home (RIDumpling), and then turned to Epic Dumpling for solace. I was not disappointed! Pork and cabbage dumplings were perfect -- chewy, flavorful, and delicious. Exactly what I was hoping for. Shu mai was pleasant, in a sufficient kind of way. Sesame balls were great. Egg bun was wonderful. Bbq pork buns were alright. It's my favorite food, so I'm a bit picky about implementation. Was a little more soy sauce-forward than I like, but certainly not bad. Textures were great. I'll definitely eat here again, specifically for the pork dumplings, egg buns, and sesame buns. read more

Yum! Delicious dumpling spot with a few dim sum options. The restaurant is in a small plaza with plenty of parking. The restaurant is decently sized and service was actually very good! Ordered via phone but everything thing else such as payment was done through our server. We ordered 5 items as since the pricing wasn't that expensive, I assumed portions to be small but I was wrong as portions was good sized. The highlight for me was the marinated beef pancake roll and the salt and pepper pork chop but honestly, everything was super delicious. Overall, I'd definitely be back. A good spot with delicious food and phenomenal pricing. Service was also good and fast! read more

First time here - They have friendly staff. The food u fortunately was not so good at all! We had the Pineapple chicken fried rice with cumin, no flavor at all. This is one of our favorite fried rice and so we know what it is supposed to taste like, so disappointing. The dumplings, no flavor at all but chives. Dry and there was no sauce given which in most places they have a special sauce. Overall, we do not recommend this place for those who like authentic food this would not be the place. read more

My brother and I were in the area and was looking for some food. Saw Epic Dumpling on Yelp and decided to give it a try. This was a hidden gem, a little hole in the wall. My brother and I were seated right away and to order, you would scan the QR code. We ordered: - Hot and Sour Soup - Braised Chicken Feet - Shu Mai - Fried Tofu - Popcorn Chicken - Pork & Cabbage dumplings - Molten Lava Bun Everything we ordered was pretty good. Just our hot and sour soup came out not that hot, just a bit warm. But, everything else came out hot and we enjoyed the food. Was it the best dim sum? No, but it was pretty good and no complaints. read more

This place is interesting... the name is Epic Dumpling but they serve more than just dumplings! It's a wide assortment of food from all over China including Dim Sum and Cantonese dishes along side their Shanghai dumplings. The food is decent, but I would stick with the Shanghai cuisine like soup dumplings and boiled dumplings. Unfortunately, the take out pan fried dumplings were disappointingly soggy. I have to try them while dining in to give a fair assessment. For take out, the service is decent except they won't give you ginger with the vinegar which I think is BLASPHEMOUS and inauthentic. When eating dumplings... you gotta have the ginger...! They also sell dim sum at astronomical prices and very strange fusion and seasonal dim sum like brown sugar boba deep fried pumpkin buns so avoid those dishes no matter how good they sound! Service is fast, they get A LOT of take out orders and are pretty efficient and timely. No sooner and no later than the designated time. Overall: I think it's okay, I want to try their bentos which look pretty affordable at $15 a box. I will give it another shot. read more

What I ordered: - BBQ pork steamed buns - Pork & shrimp siu mai - Shanghai soup dumplings - Garlic string beans I knew this place was going to be legit by the storefront where you'll see two people hand-folding trays of dumplings. All of the dim sum dishes were steamed to order and piping hot. Each of the fillings were immensely savory, I also appreciated that the BBQ pork buns were not too sweet. The string beans were solid, great snap in texture and bold garlic/onion flavor. My only critique of the meal was the Shanghai soup dumplings. They did not contain much soup, but it might've been a one off. Although the restaurant was not full, the wait was kinda long, but it's probably due to the "steam-to-order" aspect. If you're craving your favorite dim sum dishes and you're in the area, you must stop by. read more

I love this Mom and Pop small business. You know it's good when most of the customers around us are Chinese Grandmas and Grandpas as well. So the restaurant is not fancy, if you want fancy go to that place at the mall.... This place makes and rolls their own wrappers and noodles. You can taste it in every bite. Our lunch group ordered boiled dumplings, mapo tofu, garlic onion pancakes, and chicken corn soup. The dumplings by far is the star here. Will definitely return to try their noodles soon. read more

Cute and cozy Dim Sum place that my family and I really liked. We've tried a lot of dumpling places over the years but every time there's been more misses than hits. So we were really glad we found one that's pretty 'epic'. We had the Hot and Sour Soup, the Pork Buns, the Crab and Pork XLB and the Shrimp dumplings. All dishes were delicious. The pork buns were slightly doughy but otherwise, everything was spot on and the prices are very reasonable. Service was prompt and friendly. Definitely worth a try! read more

This might be one more of my hole in the wall collections in the bay area. I love dumplings! I think my kids might like some of these dishes, like pop corn chicken and they recently came up with a chocolate XLB 6pcs for $9.99. It's an older restaurant, but they keep the price right. The walls exude a cultural history of Chinese food. Will update to see how I like the food after I finish this meal. =P Ok, from the first bite of the shui mai, I am hooked! The flavor was explosively flavorful!! Next was the har gow and crab flavored XLB. I am in love! The utensils were clean too. The water has a fresh lemon flavor. I'll be back! Would grab friends and family to join. read more

To describe this place in two words: affordable and delicious. I have been coming here consistently for 5 years. I always order the crab pork soup dumplings. They are great. I could eat 12. The crazy part too is that it is priced so well you won't feint looking at the bill if you do eat 12. The har gao, pan fried soup dumplings, and sui mai are also great! The egg yolk black bun is a great dessert. We usually only come here for dim sum dishes, since that is their specialty. The service is good. You can tell they are trying their best. They got one dude working all the tables, so it may take some time to get your stuff. The interior is nice. read more

Epic Dumpling - Vegan Dumpling () (12) - Dim Sum Near Me - Sunnyvale, California

This is a great dim sum takeout spot. They have a small, basic dining area, too. This is our second time ordering here (easy to do from their own website) and I am impressed with the taste and quality of the food. When I arrived there was a line out the door waiting to order takeout. I had already placed my order and they texted me to let me know it was ready so I walked over to the pick up table to the right of the register. The server asked me to verify my order and then I was off. Quick and convenient- will return! Notes on what we ordered: Har gow (shrimp dumplings) - perfect bite size and so good. Sui Mai - delicious - I think they use water chestnut or something crunchy in the recipe? Shanghai Soup Dumpling - I was least impressed with these due to the thick wrapper and bland filling. Epic chicken - "house special sauce" is tasty but a little spicy - heads up! General Tso chicken - tangy and very savory, one of the better ones I've had in this area. read more

Everything here was great, super solid! All the flavors really came through on each dish. The mapo tofu noodles were super sichuan mala spicy which was so fun. The cucumber salad's sauce was garlicky and sweet and fragrant. The beef pancake roll was satisfyingly balanced with the freshness of the cucumber and savoriness of the beef, and oiliness of the pancake. The XLB was super flavorful and juicy. I usually don't like the dough this thick but it wasn't so bad. I just wish the wontons had a bit more skin but that's just my preference! read more

We just tried Epic Dumpling for the first time via DoorDash, which is not usually ideal for things like XLB, but we decided to take out chances when we wanted SJB. - SJB: 6 per order. Diminished as takeout (our fault for getting it as takeout), but I also thought the exterior of the bun was too thick. It didn't have a crisp bottom, it was evenly thick throughout, and there was no soup inside. That said, the flavor of the filling was good - XLB: 6 per order - these still had soup inside. The skin was on the thicker side, but it made for better takeout - Beef pancake roll: the pancake was a bit gummy, but flavor was good - Green beans: standard stir fry to go with SJB and XLB - Epic chicken: stir fried chicken breast - a protein forward dish in case you don't want just all carbs; it was generous on the leeks but quite greasy Admittedly, you can't judge a place like this by a DoorDash order. I would give them another chance next time I'm in the area. read more

This is a nice dumpling place, you can see them making the dumplings in front of the store. Ordering is easy using the qr code.

Overall, this is a great place to try. read more

Epic Dumpling lives up to its name, though they have far more than just quality dumplings! This casual sit-down restaurant with QR code ordering tied to each table makes life easy for a fast meal. That said, they clearly experiment with and play around with the dishes in interesting ways so I'm definitely a fan. Service was polite when we interacted and premesis is well kept. Food came out pretty darn fast (less than 10 min, even with all their takeout orders) as each dish is ready, so be ready for that dessert dimsum to be coming out too. Popcorn Chicken - 5/5 Great dish with a very clean fry (not too much dripping grease) and a light batter/airy crisp. Moist chicken and balanced seasoning. Thrown in fried basil leaves too! Hard to ask for more in an iteration of popcorn chicken really. BBQ Pork Buns - 4/5 Freshly steamed and tasted clean. Filling was generally good on tenderness but could've used more depth of the caramelized flavor. Otherwise solid chasiu. Shredded Tofu - 5/5 Mildly spicy and clean execution for appetizer. Beef Pancake Wrap - 4/5 Fillings were a bit dry but the pancake had a very nice texture and consistency. Balance of sauce quantity and fillings was a bit off kilter and needed more moisture. Flavor was solid though. String Beans - 5/5 Well balanced in terms of flavor and grease. No issues with pooling amounts of saltiness a the bottom and (mostly) quite crisp beans. XLB - 5/5 Remarkably good with a pretty strong porky flavor. Skin was just right thickness with no breakage (verge of a bit too thick, but all good). Could use a bit more cooking wine but a damn good value given their pricing. =Choco XLB - 3/5 This one was just really strange to me. I'd describe it as thick skinned chewy dumpling with a chocolate bonbon center. Firmly in the too sweet direction, but overall not bad either. My brother was a far bigger fan of this than I was, but it wasn't the worst way to end the meal. I give them credit for experimentation though. read more

We wanted to give Epic a try since my sister recommended it. We went for early lunch, so it was fairly empty. It seems more like a mom-n-pop shop, nothing fancy. We were seated and ordered quickly. The string beans were terrific. But the marinated beef pancake roll and green chive pancake were a little disappointing. The marinaded beef and the chive fillings were delicious, but the pancakes were a bit thick and doughy. They should be thinner and have a crunch to them. My husband enjoyed his braised beef fresh noodle soup. I enjoyed the cumin fried pork chops. read more
