There is an online waitlist through the Toast app, which is a great way to save yourself some time. https://tables.toasttab.com/dough-zone-pine-street/joinWaitlist?deeplink=true Dough Zone has a new QR code order system, which is very convenient and works for everything except alcoholic beverages.

Like the Food Walk itself, this place gets very crowded during peak lunch hours when they're open; every seat was taken and everyone else - myself included - got our goodies for takeout. You pay depending on how much you get; for example, one piece of siu mai is $1.30 each as of this writing. All other food items follow in a similar suit. We got the following: - Egg tart: my favorites though they have cookie crusts. I do prefer flaky crusts but the egg yolk has the right amount of sweet to balance the crust. - Siu mai: fresh and piping hot. Meat was also fresh and didn't have a weird aftertaste. - Green onion bun: each one is pretty big, and there's just enough green onions on them to distinguish between similar buns like the baked BBQ pork bun. - Sponge cake: didn't eat this myself but parents thought this was all right though a little too set. - Baked BBQ pork bun: my dad's favorite. BBQ pork is sweet and complements the bun itself. - Meat bun turnover (Shanghai pan-fried buns): I always like getting these in places like Din Tai Fung and Dough Zone. The ones here are even better, with a ton of filling in each bun and a nice crisp from the pan fry. A classic staple of Chinatown that serves awesome dim sum that edges out the competition pretty well considering dining in has gotten a lot more expensive lately! I see myself coming back a lot more, beyond the number of times I've gone here since high school, of course.

The interior seemed recently renovated, looked nice, but the entrance and some parts of the place was messy. They do not push carts, all dim sum dishes come straight from the kitchen. They had about 40 dim sum items on the menu. Prices were decent for each plate. We were able to scan QR code order the items we wanted. We got the shrimp dumplings, radish cake, shrimp rice roll, beef honey comb, sesame ball and egg tar. All items were brought out to table in short time. All the items had legit taste. My favorite was the beef honey comb (intestine), probably the best tasting one I ever had. The service was fine, as it's usually is in C-town restaurants. Staff members brought water/tea and removed empty plates while running around doing other things. Though it wasn't the full dim sum experience (no push carts), we were content with the food.

The wontons were good, but the chili sauce was the star. It was numbing and a little minty feeling.

We showed up with half our party since the rest of our group had a hard time looking for parking, but they sat us right away and didn't give us a hard time at all. The decor is cute - darker lighting with spotlight on their cultural elements. Not gonna lie, when a restaurant over emphasizes its Asian decor, usually I have pretty low expectations for the food since it will likely be Americanized. This place proved me wrong! Their menu was a mix of Cantonese dishes, Taiwanese elements, Shanghainese dumplings and noodles, and Szechuan mala flavors. We probably over ordered but seriously enjoyed all the dishes. From most to least favorite: - Ginger & Scallion Fish Fillets: Sooooo fragrant and honey. LOVE! - Typhoon Shelter Beef Short Ribs: The fried garlic seasoning is fantastic, usually seen with crab or seafood but with short ribs it was excellent and super flavorful too - Black Truffle Wagyu Fried Rice: A pretty big portion for the price! The aroma of the truffle was fantastic but not overpowering - Half Hong Kong Style Honey Roast Duck: Hard to find good roast duck in the US so was happy to see it in the menu, skin was crispy and flavorful and the sauce was authentic as well. A tad too salty if I were to be nitpicky which is why it's not higher on the list - Traditional Kurobuta Pork Soup Dumplings: Good but not standout, not the star of the show compared to places that specialize in dumpings - Stir-Fry Green Beans: A little bland, can skip The Hong Kong Style iced lemon tea is just okay, but it's hard finding one truly authentic around here. Still enjoyed it! For the price point, ambiance, and quality of food, I was blown away and highly recommend!

Most importantly, the food is also consistently good, which is hard to find in an Asian restaurant. The interior is clean and comfortable, making it a perfect spot to bring large groups of friends or family to socialize and eat. Where this place shines is the the dim sum. My favorite go to is always: - Shrimp Hacao (huge pieces!) - Pork Shu Mai (tasty and huge as well) - Beef or BBQ rice roll - Pan fried Taro Cake - Pan fried Radish Cake - Radish Cake with XO Sauce (this is a big portion and recommended if you have a larger group) All their dishes always comes out piping hot! My favorite tea to wash this all down is Buddha tea. I like the buddha tea because it's less bitter than others and has a golden taste to it. Honestly with the exception of the spare ribs, everything on the dim sum menu is pretty good, I just need to bring a bigger group of people so we can just try everything on the menu!

Right now they're running a borscht soup special, and it tastes exactly like the versions I grew up with -- comforting, rich, and perfectly balanced. If you're craving real Hong Kong comfort food, this is it. Service is quick and friendly enough for a HK place.

Not sure what they added in, but the flavor of the broth was not my favorite. There's so much good wonton soup in the area! I wish this broth was better and more savory. Beef chow fun: pretty tasty and the beef was pretty tender. There was no work hei, so didn't have that distinct flavor Half chicken bone in: this was surprisingly our favorite dish!

I definitely am not a big fan of their chili paste which wasn't spicy at all and the flavor of the paste has a slight pungent flavor that I didn't like.
