    7. Samsun Boiled Dumplings
    Katherine P.

    Much better this time around. They've added more to their menu since the last time I've been here which was years ago. This time we ordered the half soy garlic fried chicken which was super crispy tangy but not too sweet, half order of Bulgogi, which was so tasty, malatang which is a spicy beef soup with tofu and vegetables. Soup super tasty, but it was more vegetables than anything else. The fried shrimp was really crispy and tasty. Spicy shrimp dumplings were a little too spicy for me, but we're really tasty. Very friendly and prompt service.

    This place is a little gem across the street from the mall. It was a cute little area that satisfied my dumplings cravings. Only thing I questioned was if all the dumplings had the same filling but a different presentation. I can tell the wrapping were made in house .. they were all so light and fluffy. Didn't taste pre-made at all. Service was with a smile ... and I enjoyed talking to the server about how they made the food and how long they've been open. Definitely a place I'd visit again when I visit. Bon Appetit!!!!

    I give this place 5/5. Hospitality was 5/5. They are very welcoming, helpful and attentive. The food was seasoned too good and I can't get enough. It side was clean, good space around and well lighted. It was a good dinner and it was a good experience. Depends what n the day and parking can be a challenge.

    Sweet red bean steamed buns

    We stopped in for dinner the other night. There is plenty of parking in the shopping center they are located in. The restaurant itself is small but charming. I love the homemade kimchi and takuan. I could eat both of these with some rice all day. We started with some noodle soup. Handcut noodles, beef dumplings and vegetables made for a comforting start to the meal. Then we got an order of dim sum. They give you quite a few pieces. They are stuffed with pork and Chinese and are absolutely delicious. We also got a half order of the Korean Fried Chicken. It was piping hot and very crispy. The kimchi steamed buns were next. They were large and very filling. Each bun was packed woth kimchi, pork and vegetables. We ended with sweet red bean steamed buns. These were also large and filling. A great way to finish our meal. A great place for dumplings and not worrying about leaving hungry. Great service too!

    Their Sweet And Spicy Fried Chicken is a definite MUST-TRY!! Their house-made sauce is blended with Korean spices, giving you that glossy, sticky, sweet heat that builds gently without overpowering. Not super spicy, more sweet taste but insanely flavorful and addictive. We got a half order, which consisted of 1 wing, 1 drumstick, 1 thigh, 2 rib, 2 breast, costing $16.99. A whole order of chicken is $28.99. We would definitely order again. Dumplings are handmade fresh daily. You can literally taste the difference in every bite -- juicy fillings, delicate wrappers, and that perfect pleat. We tried: Dim Sum 10 pc $16.99 Korean style dumplings 8 pc $15.99 King Steamed Dumpling With Pork And Vegetables 4pc $15.99 Pan Fried Dumplings 10pc $16.99 My favorites were the Korean style dumplings and Pan Fried Dumplings. King Steamed Dumpling With Pork And Vegetables is huge, fluffy and bouncy. The taste of the filling was okay. The dim sum was a good size and looked pretty. Hard to pick up with chopsticks without the bottom breaking. The bottom was really delicate so using a spoon makes it easier. The Marinaded Beef $15.99 (half order) was perfect with rice. Complimentary small Sides: kimchi, pickled radish and cabbage salad. I really liked the pickled radish. This place is tucked away in a strip near the Northridge Promenade Shopping Center. Parking can be difficult during peak hours. Nyi had wonderful customer service.

    Kimchi King Bun
    Christine B.

    Tried Myungin Dumplings in Northridge, across the street from Northridge Fashion Square. Portions here are generous, and we ordered several dishes to sample the menu. The pork and shrimp dim sum was bigger than expected and very juicy. The bulgogi came out on a sizzling plate and had solid flavor. I also really liked the green onion pancake was crispy outside with a chewy, almost mochi-like texture inside. The Kimchi King steamed dumplings were HUGE and could easily be a meal on their own. We also had the fried shrimp (not made in-house but still crispy) and the soy garlic fried chicken, which was sweet, savory, and enjoyable. Nice to see the buns being made fresh. Overall, good portions and comforting food, a solid spot if you're in the area craving dumplings.

    4. Dim sum
    Maricar D.

    I enjoyed coming here for a casual dine-in to enjoy some fresh and hot dumplings. They are of pretty big sizing, which was to my group's pleasure. I highly recommend the dim sum dumplings, as you can taste and enjoy each bite of handmade goodness. There are also a generous amount of sides given (Korean-style yay!) to pair with the dumplings as well as chili oil to give every single bite a different element. The menu seemed very inviting to try more but we were in a hurry and had to wrap our food quickly. It also seems like they're always upgrading their menu and releasing new items to try! They take Apple pay and you just have to pay at the counter. Easy to get seated at here, there's lots of open tables to sit at. Service is efficient and nothing extraordinary. Solo bathrooms for men and women.

    I really enjoyed coming here for a snack bite of some fresh, hot dumplings!!! It was my first time trying Korean dumplings and I enjoyed them here at Myungin Dumplings. Located in a shared but big and narrow lot, it was easy finding this spot. I thought that sharing two dishes here with a group was great for what we needed. We tried out the pan fried dumplings (shrimp, pork, vegetables) and the Dim Sum (steamed with pork and shrimp). Chewy, the dough for both dumplings were yummy. It was great how clear the menu was as it showed what was inside each dumpling. The sides were good to chew and munch on also with the dumplings. I definitely also appreciate how clean the interior is and decorated!!! The rest of the menu seemed super good too and would definitely love to come back here again to try out more!!

    3. Spicy Shrimp and Pork Dumpling
    Ernie S.

    not a bad spot, wish they had more variety and pretty steep considering the amount of food I got. big parking area. nice folks. spicy shrimp and pork dumplings hard to eat and the rest of the food is ok but maybe I haven't found the right sauce.

    L-R Shrimp Dumplings, Pan fried dumplings, and Kimchi Dumplings.
    Jackie E.

    I've ordered delivery from here before and went there in person to dine in for the first time recently. We ordered an assortment of dumplings - kimchi, pan fried, shrimp, along with some fried rice and pancake. The pancake with the dipping sauce was tasty. The best of the dumplings were the shrimp, although the spice level was kinda high for me. The fried rice was slightly bland. Overall, their food is OK. Not sure if I'd go back though.

    Mikey V.

    The place was easy to find and even though the parking seemed small we were able to snatch a spot. Everyhing we tried was good and service was great! The place was a bit warm but not terrible. It was a hot day.

    11. Fried Rice with Shrimp and Vegetables
    Rikparna G.

    Stopped by Myungin Dumplings on Saturday for a late lunch, and it turned out to be an exceptional experience from start to finish. We ordered a variety of dishes, including their dim sum and fried dumplings, which were perfectly cooked--crispy on the outside, flavorful, and incredibly satisfying. The true highlight of the meal was the fried chicken. We tried both the sweet & spicy and the soy garlic, and while both were excellent, the soy garlic absolutely stood out. It was crispy, well-coated, and packed with rich, savory flavor without being overpowering. Easily one of the best versions I've had. We also ordered the chicken fried rice, which was comforting, well-seasoned, and paired perfectly with the rest of the meal. Even the lemonade deserves a mention--refreshing and balanced, a great complement to the bold flavors of the food. The restaurant itself was very clean and well maintained, and the service was warm and attentive throughout our visit. The staff was friendly, efficient, and made us feel genuinely welcomed. Compliments to the chef--every dish tasted thoughtfully prepared and consistently delicious. If you're looking for high-quality dumplings, standout fried chicken, and excellent service, Myungin Dumplings is absolutely worth a visit. I'll definitely be returning.

    I had the short rib soup and it came with steam rice and kimchi. The trio were a perfect combination, especially on a cold rainy day.

The Dave's Not Chicken (cauliflower) is delicious. You can get it as a tender, slider, mini slider, loaded fries you name it. It's delicious each time with an adjustable spice level. Haven't gotten to interact with many employees because I usually order on the self serve kiosk which is also a nice option. It has a unique ambiance and bonus points for playing some good music in there!

However, when I went back recently, while not as dry, I did find the chicken slightly overcooked. The food was all very flavorful, I just found myself looking for sauce/condiments to help make the chicken easier to chew/swallow. I will say, however, the interior of the store still looked as if it was brand new. You could tell they take the time to make sure things are incredibly clean & tidy throughout the day. The staff was also so incredibly friendly. I could tell the store manager was there (I believe training a new employee) and she really pulled out all of the stops to be as friendly and helpful as possible. And I won't complain one bit. Just as an aside (& I'm assuming this is an isolated event), I went to get some unsweetened tea, and the tip of the dispenser wasn't on securely because it shot off in to my cup, causing tea to shoot out everywhere. I had to dig in to my cup to get the nozzle out & attach it properly then grab a ton of napkins to clean it up. Like I said, I'm sure that's not a common occurrence, but I just have to share it because it did get tea stains all over my shirt.

Because one bite and I, who don't do spicy, had my mouth lit on fire. Now, this was a late-night order, but so what? If the people there cannot see a clearly marked crispy, not spicy crispy, not mixed, and not grilled, then they should try to look more carefully. I had to toss the food and get a refund from DoorDash. Out of fairness, I will give it another try, although the bad reviews here leave me worried, and I'm happy to amend this too spicy review. This should have been a crispy review and it would have been had it not been spicy. Get my drift?
