Looks like prices have gone up since I last visited. About $12 for 12 dumplings. I think the dumplings taste a lot better than their noodle dishes and side dishes, which I guess makes sense since they specialize in dumplings. I'd just get the dumplings next time. They also sell frozen dumplings that you can buy to take home- $15 for 20. read more

A quick pick from yelp on my way to my union meeting. It's a small cozy restaurant. My friend and I decided to sit in because I knew that food will be quick and delicious. Delicious it was. We shared the pork dumpling with napa cabbage. I got the beef Beijing noodles. The noodles looks like it's made fresh and it's not seasoned. It gets its flavors then the beef. I had left overs the next day and the noodles soaks up the beef flavors. My friend got the soup. She said that the noodles went well with the soup. I would definitely come back and try their soup dumplings and other things on their menu. read more

I Dumpling - Beijing Noodles - Chinese Near Me - Redwood City, California

Friendly and quick service. The woodear mushroom and cucumbers were very garlicky. Both the lamb and pork and chives dumplings arrived hot with good flavor. The soup of the beef tendon and noodles was a bit bland but the tendon was soft and hubs enjoyed the bowl after doctoring it up some. read more

Very casual and chill inside. The waiter was nice. The pork dumplings were my favorite dish. I love the dumpling wrapper and the meat and veggies inside were flavorful. The soup dumplings were good but they did not have ginger on the side which was disappointing because that is a must have when eating soup dumplings. The Beijing Noodles were underwhelming. Lacked a lot of flavor. I enjoyed the addition of bean curds in this dish though. The bean curd sticks had inconsistent texture and flavor. Some pieces were too soft and bland inside while other pieces were perfectly cooked with even spread of flavor. read more

We tried this spot for to go orders and their dumplings are quite good, much better than their noodles or other foods. It's a hole in the wall type of place which is good for some decent food. Their customer service was good too, it's on the busy side of Redwood City. Definitely worth stopping by read more

Really good and authentic Chinese restaurant, specializing in dumplings, wontons, potstickers, soups, and noodles. Generous portions and very reasonable prices. Service is fast and very pleasant. Ambiance is nice and the restaurant is quiet (no background music, which is a plus). We will be back to explore the menu. read more

We arrived about half an hour prior to closing of lunch and we got a bit of attitude. We made sure whether or not it was okay to dine in, otherwise we would've had no problem eating elsewhere. We ordered quickly and paid the bill before their closing time but felt a vibe still. Moving along to the food! The soup dumplings were pretty good, it was flavorful but didn't have a lot of soup inside. The noodles were delicious but the quantity of noodles in each bowl were a bit underwhelming. I get that it's not favorable to arrive right before closing, but I feel like it's okay to be up front that you can't serve us or maybe telling us we can only take out instead but don't say it's okay to dine in but give attitude to your customers. read more

We had a late lunch and ordered 2 items plus a coke. First we had 12 piece pork, chive , and shrimp dumpling. They were served steaming hot but without any sauces. The three sauces available were on the table, wine vinegar, soy sauce, and chili sauce. We tried the wine vinegar and it was just OK. The dumplings were a little bland and lacked the freshness taste. Maybe they had been frozen. Next we had the pot stickers which again were served hot, but unfortunately they too were not very flavorful and lacked the taste of freshness that we enjoy with dumplings or pot stickers. Not the best we have had but,OK. Service was barely minimal and had to getup and ask for forks and bill. No one was in restaurant at the time so we had restaurant to ourselves. read more

Delicious dumplings! The coconut lava balls were delicious as well and not too sweet! Cucumber salad was the best I've had in recent memory, we were sat immediately around 6:30 pm on a Thursday as well. The place is small but cozy, two rooms of seating. Service was quick and food was hot! Overall great experience, would recommend for dumplings! read more

A cute small restaurant. The price is fair and the food is authentic. It's near downtown redwood city and parking space is not too many.

My colleague and I were in the area and stopped in for lunch. The restaurant was pretty much empty for it being 1:30 in the afternoon. We both wanted something light but filling. So we came here, the host/sever wasn't welcoming but wasn't rude either. He just didn't seem happy to be working. The chef who brought us one of our dishes was more friendly. Asked my colleague if she needed a fork and checked in on us when other dishes were brought to us. The chow mein was a little greasy for liking but had good flavor, veggie egg rolls had a great crisp, and both dumplings were good, definitely had the homemade taste. Not bad for a while in wall.... Work on service with a smile.... read more

Was there a few days ago for lunch. Ordered pork and pickled noodle soup. The noodle soup was very bland. Also ordered the tofu sticks with celery as an appetizer. It seems they only put sesame oil on it, but nothing else and it was watery and very few pieces of celery. Ordered the soup dumplings. It was not hot enough. It was lukewarm. Ordered the chicken chow mein and it was fine and passable. Would not return again. That place has lost their luster read more

Very family/home style cooking with friendly service!! Recommended for family and casual/easy dinner. Looking forward to my return in future. read more

This restaurant is a pretty decent hole in the wall. I treated my godson for some dumplings, since he was craving dumplings. I was surprised at how many pieces you get per 1 order, which is 12 pieces! The chicken corn dumplings had nice flavor, the pork and shrimp dumplings my godson ate, he also enjoyed! Careful when you bite into it, it's piping hot! The egg fried rice was delicious. I didn't want to order more than what we had because it was a lot of food for two people already. Located on Broadway next to the barber shop, street parking you can easily find or there's a parking lot around the corner across from the Caltrain. There's plenty of indoor seating available. They also provide take-out. We didn't wait long for our food and service was good! I would be a returning customer :) read more

Delicious, family-run restaurant, with fast and practical service. Overall, quite simple, the food comes out quickly, but it's hot and fresh. I've been here twice now, and enjoyed the soup dumplings, and the chicken and chives dumplings, and the tofu as well. Everything was delicious and the prices are really quite reasonable and affordable for people of all income levels, which I appreciated the most. It makes it a great option for a lowkey first date! Therefore, I highly recommend getting takeout, or just coming in for a dine in. And afterwards, you can stroll through downtown Redwood City and enjoy the rest of your evening. :) read more

I went back again to try the dine in experiance ordered both veggie and pork potstickers they were so tasty. Chicken fried rice and chicken chow mein, deep fried green beans and another bowl of wonton soup to complete the meal. All the dishes was exceptional, the service was great and friendly staff. A gentleman with his family told me the place was exceptional while we waited outside to open for dinner service. After we finished our meal his family asked what I thought and I told them I was blown away by the food, flavor, service and we were convinced at that moment we had found a new goto spot in RWC for Taiwan style cuisine. Thank you I Dumpling we will be back read more

cheap and good Okay nothing mind blowing but the food here is cheap and good. All the dishes are small so you can get to try a lot of things. Service is fast. Everything is fairly vanilla and nothing really stood out but they got a lot of classics. They didn't have any fu qi fei pian surprisingly but they did have beef tendon which was a good substitute read more

Basic home style food with no frills ambiance, hole in the wall, family business. Stumbled upon this place as we wanted a quick snack at 3 in the afternoon. Reasonably priced, limited menu, fresh ingredients. Flavor could be more intense, however adding the chili + soy sauce works. Will be back to try a few more dishes. Note, parking is a challenge and the cost is $1/hr with metering hours from 8-8. read more

Will NEVER come back because they are dishonest. The price on their menu is different from the final bill. The staff will not tell you the price is different. All items are at least 2-3 dollars more than the ones shown on their menu. read more

Ordered pick up for the first time. This place will be a new regular for sure! Chicken fried rice was flavorful, serving size was on the smaller side. Chicken pieces were plentiful but not super tasty to me. Pork, shrimp and chive dumplings were the highlight and very good! Very authentic, very flavorful. Beijing noodles were excellent, really good balance of flavors. Not too salty, just flavorful enough. A bit more sauce might've been better. Quick service. Looks like a mom and pop shop with authentic cuisine. read more

Pricy. The menu on Yelp is outdated. Only 12 dumplings for $14. (Not $10.95). What is more they don't disclose the veggie in the lamb dumplings. It is something I will not eat if i know what it is. No vinegar provided. Taste is soso except salty. Parking is hard. Will not revisit read more

Came here for lunch on Sunday; walked in around 1pm and the place was decently full. We ordered the Beijing noodle (4/10: noodles were too soggy and the dish was overall pretty flavorless), the beef stew noodle soup (8/10: soup was good but noodles were also too soft), the pork and shrimp dumplings (7/10: not bad, a bit pricey), and the xiao long bao (6/10: way too dough-y at the top of the dumplings). Service was friendly, and I love supporting local/mom-and-pop small businesses. We'll probably come back again, but our honest opinion of the dishes we ordered was mediocre. read more

I came here with my cousins after furniture shopping. I heard about this place from my friend and it's actually located at the end of the street and parking was ok. We only got a few items but we made sure to get the lamb dumplings. We also got the shanghai dumplings, chicken and corn dumplings, Beef stew noodle soup and beijing noodles. I think the noodles are made in house, as it tasted really fresh. The beef stew was tender and the soup was just simmered with all the flavors of it. The Beijing noodles was ok, it was just more noodles than sauce but i liked how they diced up the cucumbers and onions. The shanghai dumplings were tasty and had a lot of soup inside, however, the winner was the lamb dumplings. This literally will melt in your mouth. I wish i had my own plate of this as i can finish it all without sharing. It completely overshadowed the chicken and corn dumplings. I will return just for the lamb dumplings! read more

A great little hole-in-the-wall for home style Chinese food. Their dumplings are simple, tasty, and very reasonably priced (most flavors are $9.95 for an order of 12). We tried the pork and chive, pork and cilantro, pork and napa, pork and shrimp and chive, and a vegetarian one just for the hell of it. I love how the wrappers are a little thicker and doughier; you know they're making their own wrappers and they taste exactly like my mom's dumplings. The only ones I would pass on again are the pork and shrimp ones (I couldn't taste enough difference between those and the just pork and chive so it wasn't worth the $3 price difference to add shrimp) and the vegetable ones (you just need some meat for the right filling texture). We also ordered the chive pancake and the xiao long bao. The pancake was ok, but the wrappers on the XLB were way too thick (almost as thick as the dumpling wrappers) and the inside not juicy enough. I wouldn't order either of those again, but don't sleep on their dumplings! read more

We ordered 6 dishes to go and it was a little over $60. It was a sweltering hot day, we decided to take it home. The place is a divey place with no AC and it was a few degrees hotter inside than out. But the food was amazing! I'm writing this while rubbing my tummy in fullness from the wonderful dishes we got. So we got the following: Beijing Noodles Crushed Cucumbers Beef Tendons Beef Pancake Chicken and Corn Dumplings Sesame seed balls Everything was delicious. The noodles were perfectly meaty, chewy yet not too heavy noodles. Everything on top of it was bonus! We will definitely be back. It's a no frills divey place with very good food. Please let's keep this place here forever! Go check them out! You won't regret it. read more

The dumplings and egg rolls were good, though the service could have been more welcoming.

The chicken and chive dumplings were pretty good and a good place for lunch- only problem can really be is parking as it is right near el camino and broadway so parking is pretty limited for a quick pick up. The spicy beef soup was so good I really liked the broth of this one though- I will come back for lunch- service was good and fast as expected for a chinese restaurant. read more

I Dumpling - Soup dumpling - Chinese Near Me - Redwood City, California

We stopped by for dinner a couple weeks ago. It's in Redwood City downtown area, so pretty easy to find parking after 6 pm. The food here was delicious(for most part) and fresh. We ordered pork and chicken potstickers, dumplings, a veggie tofu dish and veggie potstickers. Compared to the price of everything else on the menu, vegetarian food costs more than meat but it is still better priced than most Bay Area exorbitantly priced restaurants. My only complaint is that vegetarian potstickers were not good at all. It was doughy and flavorless. People are nice and the service is quick. Definitely recommend trying this place. I'm a vegetarian and I've been told that the meat dumplings and potstickers were really very delicious Ambiance is modest, functional and does the job well read more

Came here on a Saturday evening around 8pm and we were seated right away. Only a few people were dining. Service was quick and food came out quick. We ordered the pork potstickers which were GREAT. Crispy and flavorful. Wish they had more variations of the potstickers like shrimp or chicken. The chicken and chives dumplings were OK - sort of bland. The chicken and corn dumplings were better. Very moist and flavorful inside. I would definitely order those again! And then finished with the sesame balls which were better than any I've had before. They are smaller (which I appreciated) so don't be alarmed by the 8 piece order. Come here for a straightforward no frills good dumpling experience! read more

This is a decent place for dinner although the place looks a little run down, and the waiter didn't really understand or speak English. The food came quick after ordering and tasted good, and the price was reasonable, around $20 per person including tax and tips. One note, I originally made the reservation through Yelp and received confirmation, however, when I called a couple days later to change the reservation, the person answered the call said there was no reservation on file. read more

A solid 2.5 star restaurant. Bumping it up because of the price point. XLB ($5.95)- for this price, I shouldn't complain. If it was set at a regular price, I would say the dough was too thick, not juicy and the meat was tough. Beef tendon noodle soup ($12.95)- pleasantly surprised by the amount of flavorful tendered beef tendons and the al dente noodle. Best of all, they included a few pieces of dried fungus. Taiwanese chicken nuggets bento box ($12.35)- the nuggets were marinated too sweet to my liking. Lack the salt and pepper coatings as the traditional Taiwanese chicken nuggets would have. The side vegetables were served cold and I like my food piping hot. Pan fried chive pancake ($7.95)- the fillings (tasted bland) were cold inside but the outer shell was hot and crispy. They probably pulled the fillings from the frige and just quickly pan fried the shell. read more

Food was not good. Big disappointment. Ordered food through uber eats - packaging was good. - Pork and shrimp dumplings: the filling is good, but the skin is just way too thick. - Ground pork with rice: half of the rice felt like it was undercooked or they gave me yesterday's rice.

Visited the place today. Ordered a few things to try out the spot. Scallion pancakes - These were really thin and did not have a great taste. Vegetarian dumplings - These quantity was good for the price but the taste was so so, would not order again.

This is a reasonable priced small restaurant in Redwood City. It's pretty small inside with a few tables. My dumpling craving led me there. We did a takeout. Green Chives Pan Cake- the description mentions two pieces but doesn't say what the filling is made up of. it has chives, scrambled eggs, dried shrimps. It's delicious but no dipping sauce. Vegetarian Dumplings- we got 12 dumplings. Filled with shredded cabbage. I am no great expert on eating dumplings but this came with no sauce and it was very dry by itself. Because we did a takeout I had it with soy sauce at home . Not sure if it was missed in our order. Pickled tofu noodle soup - very lightly flavored. Simple broth served with sea weed, tofu and noodles. The quantity is huge. Serves 3 people easily. My husband is a vegetarian and hence this order. When we went to pick up instead of handing over to us the guy at the counter realized our order was vegetarian and made it a point to tell us the pancake had shrimps. It was very astute of him to tell us that. Extra star for him. But Doordash (where we ordered from) or the restaurant needs to update the menu. Might be serious problem for people with shrimp allergies. Tip: ask about the ingredients if you are vegan, vegetarian or allergic. read more
