The place was completely empty and now I know why. The server came up and asked us what we wanted and before my fiancé could finish what he wanted to order, the server rudely ripped the menu away from my fiancé's hands and walked away, we asked for straws and when he came back he was like 3 feet away from our table and tossed the straws from a long distance. I was so upset and wanted to leave but when he came back my fiancé finished his order and told him what else he wanted. I got a platter that was supposed to have shredded dried beef and they cut thin slices of bbq pork that didn't look appealing and tasted old, I couldn't eat it. I'm Filipina Spaniard American and I know Asian food especially Vietnamese, my fiancé and I are not newbies to eating this kind of cuisine and the ride waiter was talking to us like it was our first time eating Vietnamese food when it's the majority of what we always eat. One of our orders was Bun Bo Hue because my man loves his food spicy but this was so spicy it was inedible. They cut corners making the food here and it's overpriced! We never experienced service this rude before and the only interaction he had was towards the end when the bill was coming. I gave gratuity even though I didn't feel he deserved a tip because his attitude and energy was so low vibrational. What's wrong with that guy? I've read a few more reviews of people complaining about the same thing we experienced. No wonder why it's empty here. The place didn't seem clean either, tables were sticky and the walls had dirt, dried liquid splattered. We didn't like the aura or vibes at all. We will just continue going to the Lombard location because the service there is top notch when Matt is working and the ambiance is the best. I think it's overly priced here as well! My bill plus tip came out to almost 100 with the extremely shitty service. This place will never have a full house with the horrendous and rude service. The interactions felt like we were eating at Ed Debevic's or Dicks when the server is just rude as hell and has no manners, respect or class to be running or working in the restaurant business. Customers want to be welcomed and treated with RESPECT because we work hard to eat out and we aren't eating here for FREE! Gratuity shouldn't even be an option burdened upon customers if the service isn't even up to par.

With an easy to remember name, Chicago Dumpling in a suburb of Chicago, serves up a variety of…read moreJapanese and Chinese inspired foods, in a fast food type set-up in a strip mall with plenty of parking. Before dropping us off at the airport, my wife's aunt treated us (my wife, her mom, and me) to lunch. I got to choose the place, and the experience ended up being really great. Even though it looks like you are supposed to stand in line to order and pay, the restaurant also supports a typical dine-in experience. It's an open kitchen, with seating on the side. Once we were seated, we were given menus and a tablet to place our order, but our server stayed around to explain that she would be back to help us place the order. She was the only front of house working, and she was friendly and efficient, constantly going back and forth to service to-go order taking and dine-in. The one page menu has two parts: a Chinese part and a Japanese part, and had items that we call could eat. Once we placed our order, the items came out in the following order, after being made to order. Karaage ($6.95) - five pieces of all white meat chicken, freshly deep fried. Everyone liked it, though I wish the coating was crispier. Tonkotsu Ramen ($15.95) - My wife's aunt and I got this. We both agreed the broth should have been served a lot hotter, but it was flavorful. I was especially impressed with the Chashu pork, two thin but generous pieces, nicely crisped first before serving. Edamame ($6.50) - my wife's go-to when at a Japanese restaurant. Chicken Shoyu Ramen ($15.95) - Got one for my wife's mom, and then ordered another for carry-out. One has the choice of thick noodles (classic ramen), or thin, or rice noodles. Pork and Crab Meat Xiao Long Bao ($13.99 for 12 pieces) - one can ask for it prepared steamed or pan-fried. It's great value since it is machine made and guessing prepared from frozen. It's more meat than broth in the filling, and the taste and mouthfeel was OK. But I was impressed that it was offered here at all. Would get it pan fried next time. Scallion Pancakes ($6.50) - served last, this was outstanding. Very thin and crispy. Just wish it had been served first so we could all enjoy...most of us were full by the time it came out. We paid at the end through our server. My wife's aunt really liked the 'Chicago Dumpling' t-shirt that our server was wearing, and wanted one for herself. Our server did mention that they do sell it for $30, but were out of them at the moment. We were given take-home containers to self-pack, and was warmly thanked by everyone before we left. Good value food in a comfortable setting with excellent service: that's what I will remember about Chicago Dumpling.
