"Pick one thing and do it to the best of your ability!" That must have been their business plan when deciding to open this place and boy, did they deliver! If you're looking for variety go elsewhere, but WE were looking for dumplings. We ordered 20 stemmed pork and tofu, 20 fried vegeterian and 20 stemmed seafood/shrimp. So simple and yet so delicious. No complaints here. read more

It was a great little place! It was my first time visiting there, I had to pass on the dumplings because of the MSG, so I got egg drop soup, won ton soup and shrimp fried rice!!! EVERYTHING WAS SO GOOD! read more

Food is consistently good, but service levels consistently keeps going down. For months now, whenever we go on a weekend, they are always slammed. But they always only have two people run the show-possibly the owner & a server; handling both dine-in & take out orders. So there is literally no service and a very transactional place to come, eat & leave. Today was no exception, they took orders from 3 tables which came after us and when they came to us there was no apology or empathy. There is no order of the how, what, when the food comes out. Again the food is good, but the below standard service levels hardly makes it an experience but more of a hassle for them to have customers. Since they opened the Poughkeepsie location, this location has chosen not to adjust staffing levels and has gone down hill. read more

Regular customer. Dumpling are always on point. Fresh and delicious. We tried for the first time the vegetarian spicy noodle dish. It was level 10 spicy. Could not eat. Should be regular spicy not this extreme with hot peppers throughout the dish without any warning. Told waiter. He didn't care. Said they are spicy noodles. Yes I know that. Not my first spicy noodle dish. Should be marked extra spicy or come with spice levels like many places do. Even in Chinatown they do. This was fire !!! No offer to exchange, credit. Nothing. We left that dish in total. Customer service sucks. After years of coming here and one issue we had and they do not care. Not a good move by owner ! read more

The dumping s here are incredible here, for this dumpling is by hand fresh perfection, I love how it's a whole shrimp and not cut up inside and scrambled eggs chucks and fresh chives. Very filling little pockets of joy here. Glad there speciality is well above awesome. Also very nice here, was not rushed to order or given suggestions. read more

Palace Dumplings - Shrimp, egg and chive dumplings - Chinese Near Me - Wappingers Falls, New York

Honestly, I was reluctant to try Palace Dumplings for a long time when I first moved up here. Growing up in Queens, it's very difficult to see past the price difference between Flushing/Chinatown/Sunset Park, and the rest of the world outside of Asia. But to my dismay, the pandemic hit and I was no longer able to make my casual weekly trips down to the city to fulfill my food cravings. And it worked out great, because I finally got around to trying Palace Dumplings - they turned out to be pretty darn good! I've had all the dumplings here. They are authentic, handmade, and always delicious. For the area and quality, the price is reasonable. You won't get any better dumplings for a long distance in any direction. I can't rave about them enough! My second go-to are the noodles with gravy - well seasoned, generous with meat/sauce, and perfect noodle texture! Be prepared to wait - everything is cooked to order, but trust me, this is a good thing. I like to call my order in ahead for take out. I love the Chinese speaking staff - they're always wonderful. I sometimes have trouble with the English speaking staff member who takes orders over the phone, but I've since learned to ask for a Chinese speaker. 5/5 for dumplings and "noodles with gravy", 5/5 for value, 5/5 for authenticity, 4/5 for service speed, but it's cooked to order so it can't be helped, just plan ahead. read more

Stopped in for a quick meal after shopping. We ordered egg drop soup, the chicken with cabbage dumplings and the pork with mushrooms dumplings. Everything is delicious. You can tell that the dumplings are made fresh and they come out nice and hot. There's 4 different sauces at the table which we mixed up the way we like it. First time here and it won't be my last. Yummy! read more

If you are looking for dumplings, this is for sure a place to visit. The go to dumplings are always the pork and chives. On the table is garlic vinegar and chili oil, great additions to those steamed dumplings. I'd also order their beef noodle soup. The broth is super flavorful and add some chili oil to make it spicy if you'd like. I will say there isn't a whole lot of seating, but I'd make sure to nab a table before a dinner rush. Service was quick and efficient, come in, sit down, order, and eat. read more

Best dumplings in Dutchess County hands down! Service is very fast and there is not a bad thing on the menu. Lo Mein and soup are delicious too. Plus a dozen dumplings for $14 is a hard value to beat. Definitely stop by if you're in the area! read more

The food is amazing! However the service is a 1 star. The guy working doesn't ever seem like he wants to be there and doesn't have any customer service. If the food was bad I wouldn't return but I'll give it another try on service since the food was so good, maybe he had an off day. read more

Food is delicious! Specifically dumplings, soup, lo mein 5* Can't wait to visit again soon read more

What's not to like about this place? Huge platters of dumplings, great noodle soup, and cheap prices. I live 20-30 minutes away but I crave this place a lot. Service is very fast. Nice ambiance too. read more

Palace Dumplings - Beef broth - Chinese Near Me - Wappingers Falls, New York

Figured it was a good time to update my review. Decor has gotten a nice upgrade - more like a restaurant as opposed to cafeteria style. However they have taken away the nice white porcelain dinnerware and replaced it with black plastic, which brings back the cafeteria feel. Menu has basically remained the same and the prices have nearly doubled - but it's still a great value. The most disappointing thing to me is the dumplings. They are thicker, tougher and a bit clunky. They aren't the same as when they originally opened, not as authentic. The originals were thin, silky texture, delicate and very easy to cut. The fillings were dry and a bit bland on our last visit and a bit overdone on the pan fry, they had a slight burnt taste to them. Spicy kimchi is still absolutely delicious. And it's still one our fave places to eat!! read more

Delicious dumplings. Probably some of the best in the area. A good variety of dumplings too. And they don't just have dumplings; they have noodles, rice, salad, etc. Overall a nice dining experience. We went on a Saturday evening and they were busy. It was about a 5 minute wait for a table. Maybe because they were so busy, but service was slow. The fried rice came out pretty quickly, but it took a while to get our drinks which were mainly just waters. Then they brought out each plate of dumplings one at a time. So by the time the last person in our party of five got their dumplings, the first person was almost done eating theirs. I'll chalk it up to it being a busy Saturday night tho. The food was really good and so we'll probably go back when it is not so busy. read more

I have yet to go in person to Palace Dumplings but after ordering take out from them one night, I will give an update review of the restaurant when I can go. For now, the delivery service via Uber Eats was not bad and I got my order pretty quickly (it depends on the time you order since Uber takes ages with drivers being chosen). As a first time customer, I ordered the pork and chive dumplings, chicken dumplings and some Thai iced tea. The dumplings were made with pure love and freshness as if I was at the restaurant kitchen myself. Each dumpling set came with around 12 , which is a good price since in the city it's super expensive to order. I cannot wait to try their food in person but if you need a quick filling meal, order from Palace Dumplings! :) read more

If you want high quality dumplings YOU MUST GO HERE! Silky, fresh dough just based on how they steamed my dumplings ! My boyfriend gets them fried always & loves it. He orders beef scallion fried & I get beef chives steamed! P.S Ask for chili oil. Thank me later :) read more

Amazing food but Horrible Service. Our Waiter seemed to forget about us. We were sat, received our drinks and he did not come back for 45 mins. He took the order of 4 phone calls and took the order of 3 tables that came in after us. Once I saw that, I had to walk up to the counter and order the food for my table directly to the other employee behind the counter, who apologized. So we waited another 30 mins on top of that to finally receive our food. Which was delicious and really well made. The waiter specifically is absolutely the worst waiter I've ever had the pleasure to being around. ....Then we sat for another 40 mins waiting for our check, which never came. I had to walk up to the other employee behind the counter near the kitchen and pay. It's a shame due to the delicious food. read more

Delicious food and amazing service! The soup dumplings were perfect! We also got the hot pot soup.

Okay so let's be point blank the dumplings are really really good so good that I would give it five stars amazing the texture the way they're cooked the ingredients inside. This is the kind of place you can come to and eat a million different things and walk out happy. I will say this though I'm not a fan of the sauce it was kind of drab and lackluster all of them actually. The sauce lacks any kind of kick or zing you know the typical traditional sauce you get with your dumplings it's missing it's really actually kind of flat. However the dumplings are tasty enough that they don't even need a sauce. So maybe the sauces aren't all that I still give it five stars read more

Dumplings are always delicious. I don't think frying makes them any better. The egg drop soup is nice and thick, it always hits the spot! Their milk tea is super sweet but pretty good. One order of dumplings is plenty for one person. There's a nice selection of sauce options. read more

Excellent food, the best dumplings in the Hudson Valley. The service is prompt, but everything is made fresh so you will wait a little for your food. But the wait is so worth it. The restaurant seats about 30+ people comfortably. It's often crowded because the food is so good. read more

We re-visited Palace Dumplings today because we craved delish dumplings. We called to check that they were open for indoor dining and they confirmed that you can order and eat in the restaurant but there wasn't table service. We were ok with that. The dumplings were good as usual. The skin was thin and the meat was tender and flavorful. We ordered both the steamed and paid extra $1.50 for several orders of fried and we still prefer the steamed. We also still loved the Kimchee. The only disappointment was they didn't have a restroom for us to use especially since we drove an hour to get there and to wash our hands before eating. If you want hot, freshly made and cooked dumplings, this is still one of our favorite places to go to. Enjoy!! read more

I've been going to this place for years and and this is my go to spot for authentic real dumplings. And I'm not talking no frozen or American made dumplings I'm talking about straight out of in China. The prices are super cheap in my opinion for the amount of dumplings that you get. These aren't small quarter size dumplings these are good size dumpling that has a real balance of traditional seasonings within the meat. Unfortunately I don't have anything to add as far as the rest the menu goes because I've always gotten dumplings because they're just that downright delicious. read more

OMG did I love this place. Everything was fresh and tasted home made. There was only one server but he did not miss a beat. As the dumplings came out he served our food with love and care. My son ordered 3 dozen dumpling with fried rice and noodles. He ate every bite. I love how small and cozy it is, everyone was to busy eating amazing food to talk to much. Can wait to go back read more

Food was really delicious. Everything was hot and warm. First time here and was very pleased. Food was so flavorful. Felt like home

These are the best dumplings I've ever had. I've been to their Poughkeepsie location a few times and I always felt very welcome there. My favorite dishes there are the pork and scallion dumplings or the pork and shrimp dumplings. read more

Lovey food owned by lovey people. Best dumplings in the Hudson Valley Area. The huge variety doesn't take away from the good quality which is rare to see at a restaurant. Definitely recommend read more

'Palace Dumplings' is a little gem of a restaurant! It's a small place, run by a northern Chinese woman and it seems that everything that is presented to the patron is authentic, made in-house, fresh and outstanding in every way. This is not a place for a 'dining experience'. It's simply good food. Having said that, the premises are well maintained with a bit of Chinese ambience, it is clean, staff and wait service are excellent. If you are in the area, this place is a 'must see'! read more

Absolute gem. I was in Poughkeepsie for a weekend and craved dumplings. I usually get dumplings from Chinatown in NYC. Admittedly, my expectations were not that high because outside of the city, it is hard to find good, authentic, Asian food. I ordered the steamed pork and chive dumplings, pan fried pork and chive, and the chicken and corn dumplings. The meal was an easy 5/5 stars. The dumplings are as good as the ones from Chinatown and the prices for the area are reasonable. They are handmade and you can taste it. The dumplings were juicy and flavorful. I got my craving satisfied and have to thank Dumpling Palace for my happiness this weekend. read more

Palace Dumplings - Pan fried pork and chive - Chinese Near Me - Wappingers Falls, New York

I went to this place a few times I love their dumplings, 2x when I ordered chicken dumplings, I got some with a shrimp mixed in the chicken. As someone who had a severe Shellfish allergy, this was very negligent in their part. I haven't returned since and I miss them because I do love their dumplings. ::Sigh:: if only they weren't trying to kill me. read more

Fantastic and authentic. We've ordered here so many times and never been disappointed. One of our favorites is the pork with sour cabbage. We usually order from here about once a month or so and get 2-3 dumpling varieties for our family of 3, plus spicy noodles, and have enough for the next day. Only negative is if you order fried dumplings, they only fry one side but they're so delicious regardless. read more

I started of the food with a hot tea. It was very refreshing. The tea had a lot of good aroma. One of the aroma which I distinctly got was that of jasmine flower. Other Yelp reviews mentions that they were instructed to wait for 3 minutes while tea brews, while I was given no instruction. May be the brewed it for 3 minutes and then gave it to me. But tea was good nevertheless. I went for both steamed and fried dumplings. For steamed, I took beef with onions and for fried, I took lamb with onions. Both were equally good. When I took the first bite of the dumplings, I felt it as nice but lacking flavor. But then somebody in my group noticed dumpling sauce on the table. When we added dumpling sauce, the dumplings transformed into the best dumplings you can eat. Then I tried adding hot chilli oil on top, dumplings got even better. The only complaint I have is that they could have instructed me to add dumpling sauce. By sheer luck we noticed it and added it. Fried rice was also really good. You can feel the home made taste. Flavor was less in fried rice as well. You need add the hot chilli oil and dumpling sauce or soy sauce to bring the real taste out. Chicken low main was alright. They had black sesame ice cream and green tea ice cream. I went for black sesame ice cream. It was really good. There was even some black sesame in it to heighten the taste. read more
