Came here with huge expectations since calling yourself dumpling king is a pretty bold statement, but was extremely let down for a variety of reasons Started off my order here with the kimchi pork bun and the cabbage pork bun, which were honestly the best things here. Flavor was okay nothing spectacular, the fillings were a little disappointing though since it was packed with veggies and didn't have as much meat as I'd like or was used to, the cabbage and pork bun was more oily than I'm used to as well but not necessarily a bad thing in this case. Next came the kimchi pork dumpling and the spicy pork with rice. The dumplings were disappointing, they lacked the crispiness I'm used to from fried dumpling, and again contained too much veggies. The spicy pork had a weird assortment of veggies I'm not used to in this dish ie carrots and cucumbers, and on top of that it was way too oily for my liking. This place ranks somewhere between average to subpar, but with all the food options around in flushing I don't think I'll be making my way back here unless I'm in a desperate hankering for some kimchi pork buns
Many of my fellow foodie friends in NYC have often inquired about whether there exists a North Korean restaurant in NYC. With a perhaps suggestive name and spartan environs, Northern King Dumpling is probably the closest thing out there. While there are many Koreanized Chinese spots in the hinterlands of Flushing serving the typical jjampong-jjajjeongmyeon combo, the small shop known in Korean as Wang Mandoo caught my eye for its mixture of items more typically associated with Dongbei like a pickled vegetable bao-tze, which was absolutely scrumptious, alongside some classic Korean items one might find in the "North" such as naengmyon and soondae. I also loved the chive egg pancake, which used a softer dough than I've typically experienced at pure Chinese eateries. These are dishes that reflect a more organic mixing of the two cuisines that I wouldn't be shocked to find at a restaurant in Chongjin, should I ever be able to visit. Some other reviewers have pointed out that Wang Mandoo's owners likely hail from the Yanbian autonomous prefecture along the borderlands of North Korea, which makes sense, as some items here are labeled as such in Korean. The cold noodles, which I will try on a warmer occasion, are referred to as "Yanbian Naeng-myeon" rather than by their more common association with the capital of the DPRK.
I came for Northern King Dumpling's famed kimchi buns ($3.50), but what really ended up winning me over were their shrimp chive egg dumplings ($12). The shrimp was bouncy and the chives added a garlicky flavor to the dumplings. The skins had a delicate chew to them, that only handmade wrappers have. The dumplings bear a stronger resemblance to northern style Chinese shui jiao rather than Korean mandu, and that it because I believe the owners are from Yanbian which is an autonomous prefecture in northeastern China that borders North Korea and Russia. So, the menu boasts Korean and Chinese staples like hotteok ($2.50) which were delicious and fresh and chive egg pancakes ($3) which were unfortunately a little underseasoned, as well as a fusion of the two like the kimchi buns. Since these buns were from a fresh batch, I ordered four of them and ate one in the car. The tangy kimchi filling also had bits of pork as well as glass noodles, which I absolutely loved. Everything is made from scratch, and the shop boasts a glass window where you can watch all the aunties rolling and folding dough expertly like well-oiled machines. There are a few tables but I noticed a majority of the orders were takeout. If you are looking to bring some frozen goodies back home, there is a freezer full of dumplings and buns too. The staff understand Mandarin and Korean, but the menu is also printed in English as well.
I did take out because I was craving steamed buns and looks like people had good experience with the steamed buns. The buns are huge! Definitely worth the money and it was tasty! We got the shrimp chive dumplings, and cabbage pork buns and the veggie buns, our favorite was the veggie buns. They got my order right and it was pretty quick.
The buns and dumplings here are absolutely delicious. I've tried all the buns and the kimchi one is my favorite. Very flavorful, plenty of filling, large buns, and great prices. The owner is also friendly and service is quick. Food tastes really fresh and home cooked. Simple restaurant without the frills. I recommend to anyone who is visiting the flushing area!
I had the kimchi pork bun and it was so flavorful. I also ordered the beef bulgogi over rice. I liked the veggies in the bulgogi mix. Great affordable meal for when you don't want to cook and it's filling. The ambience is a no frills experience you get what you see for an affordable place. Food: 5/5 I would come again and recommend for anyone to check it out.
Such a gem find, small hole in the wall where you can find ladies making authentic dumplings and steamed buns behind the glass window. I've tried almost all the dumpling varieties, chive & egg pancake, kimchi steamed buns, malatang and everything was pretty solid especially given the price. The dumplings have a chewy skin that you can tell were made fresh, the buns are huuuge and malatang hit the spot. They even give you a cute little freezer bag for takeout orders or frozen dumplings! I would highly recommend and this one is worth the IG hype as someone who is very discerning when it comes to social media.
This place is not near the main strip of flushing so it's a bit hard to get to unless you have a car or willing to take a bus after you get off the train at flushing Main Street. However it is quite delicious the buns that are sold here. It's Hefty and large for what you get. Is it tasty? Yes the kimchi one was really good- but I also like the taste of kimchi dumplings so if you just want essentially a larger version of that in a fluffy bun then you will enjoy it. The dough itself is proportional and not overwhelming in comparison to the filling. My only gripe? There wasn't enough pork for either the pork and cabbage bun or the kimchi one? maybe its cuz i am used to chinese style buns but there is usually a higher ratio of meat filling to the cabbage though overall the filling is more in this bun. i would recommend the kimchi bun as well as the red bean one.
The malatang is phenomenal -- the perfect level of spiciness and full of so many different components (fatty beef, enoki mushrooms, meat-filled fish balls, a bounty of vegetables, noodles, fish tofu, etc), truly the most comforting dish. Their kimchi pork bun has a bounty of filling and super yummy as well. I loved them so much that I bought six frozen ones for quick meals at home. The shrimp chives dumpling was also great too, but may pass on their fried dishes next time (tried the hotteok - fried dough with sweet syrup and peanuts- and the egg chive pancake; don't think they were fried enough to get those crispy edges I was hoping for). Note that the staff mostly speak Korean and Chinese, but if you don't speak those languages they have pictures on the wall that you can point to to order. They also have a handy app with English translations of their menu too. There is limited seating (they have one long table that sits 10) but seems like more of a takeout spot. Will definitely be back for more of that malatang and their buns.
I came here for buying the bun, the size of bun did really surprised me. It's so huge, that's why they charged $3 each. But the option for buns wasn't that much. I don't like cabbage pork bun since it's bland and not enough pork inside. Kimchi one taste better, I'll recommend to try Kimchi bun. If there are more bun option, will be better
Food: 4.8/5 Price: under $15 A dumplings + bao shop a little on the outskirts of Flushing's city center + SO worth the trek. Online ordering got confusing, so we placed our takeout order upon arrival. It took ~15min to get our food, mainly because the dumplings are cooked to order. Because we didn't dine in + I waited in the car, I can't really comment on the service. The baos are large + well-stuffed, and the dumplings are plump + juicy. Truly such a good deal, in my opinion. I always underestimate how filling their baos are, 2 + I'm out. What I Ordered: - kimchi bao: greasy, spicy, will stain, comes with pork - pork cabbage bao: classic, filling, my comfort food - kimchi dumplings: not as spicy as the bao read more
We ordered some fresh steamed buns and a pack of frozen dumplings. I can at least say the steamed buns were great and very filling (they are priced at $3.50). They close at 8pm, and we came at 7:20, so they weren't making any fresh orders of dumplings - only offering the frozen ones to buy. The shrimp dumplings are more expensive - at $34 for 50. The pork and chive are $28 for 50. read more

Absolutely incredible northern style buns. The amount of filling, the mild kick, the flavor, the dough consistency. Wow! I'm so impressed. I wish they delivered to Manhattan or sold them frozen, because I'm so far... but I'm so happy I got to try them! read more

These ladies know what they're doing! There are a few menu items, all called "dumplings." You can either get the big dumpling with a fluffy bread exterior, or small dumplings that are boiled in water that have a thicker-than-wonton skin. The main menu hanging above the cash register is the menu for the bread-y dumplings. Their classic "wang mandu." This is a takeout place only at this time. You can't eat in and there is no outside seating anymore either. There is a minimum ($5) to use a credit card. read more

I was craving some tasty steamed buns and they did not disappoint here! It's right off of Northern and just a small shop. Clearly they specialize in the dumplings and buns since that's what the pictures mainly show but they also offer other noodles and other items on their menu as well. I only stopped by for the buns and I'm glad I did. I chose the kimchi pork bun ($3) and the cabbage pork bun ($2.50). Both buns were slightly bigger than the size of my palm. They were warm and stuffed with cabbage / kimchi, pork, and glass noodles. The outside bread part was thin and it was stuffed inside! I would only suggest that they add more meat since there really wasn't much inside but given its price and size, definitely worth it. I prefer the kimchi one - it's not spicy and just has a different flavor profile - but they're both really good! I will definitely be back. I also wanted to try their chive and egg pancake but unfortunately they didn't have any when I went the first time but hopefully next time! read more

I believe this is the first time I'm having Korean style buns and I'm so impressed!! I got the kimchi buns and the dumplings. The buns were FILLED. This is how all buns should be!! And so packed with flavor. The dumplings were also great but honestly I'd just stick to the buns!! Can't wait to try their other flavors. read more
I decided to order the Kimchi Soup from here today, it had tofu, big chunks of pork, glass noodles, the broth was flavored good. I wasn't really sure what to expect and while it wasn't as good as some korean places I've been to, it will fill the urge while I'm stuck working from home due to covid. Will order from again. read more
come here for the kimchi mandus and the malatang! this is an unassuming little storefront on northern blvd. it's pretty small inside with no ambience to speak of, but it's very clean and the workers are friendly and efficient. they're known for their massive buns which come in cabbage&pork and kimchi&pork flavors - both types are filled with cabbage, pork and glass noodles. the cabbage&pork ones are good, but the kimchi ones are amazing! just the right amount of spiciness. just one bun is enough for a meal. read more

Went to pick my wedding album near the area and decided we want to try some Korean foods. The one we want to go was close. Saw this place we decide to go in. Inside there are one big table and a counter behind the table. It is not a big place. The menu is on top wall. To order you have to go to cashier to order. The menu is a little confusing and looks like there are mispelling on the menu. We order some foods and it came pretty fast but they did forgot one noodle and when we ask they say it is coming coming. But it never came so we took it to go when they finally brought to us. The place is ok and the foods are ok. read more
Hidden gem that's finally being noticed by people around the area. I knew about this spot last year and my mom would frequently order from here. So this spot is a mix of Korean and Chinese fusion meals. There is always one person who speaks Korean in there (she speaks both Korean and Chinese). Their staple is their cabbage pork bun and kimchi bun. The kimchi bun is $0.50 more (total of $3.50) it's a steal!! It's huge and filling. Everything is reasonable priced. I consider it cheap considering how overpriced Korean food is in this area. Cabbage pork bun 5/5 Kimchi pork bun 5/5 Jjolmyun (spicy chewy noodles) 6/5!!! I had this the other day and I was so taken aback at how delicious it was. It wasn't overly spicy and very refreshing. Sundae (blood sausage) 4/5 Different than what I'm used to. A Chinese style is definitely added to this dish. It is filled with a lot of rice and they provide this soy sauce dressing on the side. read more
Northern King Dumpling is definitely the king dumpling in the northern blvd in flushing area. They have both chinese and korean oh and english as their menu language. I came here by accident because a lady was eating in front of the store and it looks so good that I cannot resist to step in. read more
