Relaxed ambience , instantly comfortable. Nice service that was kind in explaining the menu. It is not as obvious but in a good way. Lots of filling and topping options. Also seems to be very supportive of all sorts of lifestyles. Thus the comfy feel. Will return. read more

Rush In Dumplings - Combo dumps. - Russian Near Me - Olympia, Washington

First, the good. The place is cute. The staff is helpful and friendly, especially when explaining the menu for first timers. Everything smells delicious. There is a good selection of dumplings and toppings, as well as other food & treats, including borscht and dill pickles. Drinks are limited to those in the stand up fridge, or water from a self serve cooler. The dumplings are good, but decidedly underwhelming for $1.04 a dumpling (18 pieces = $18.80). We had the Alaskan and the Classic, and while enjoyable, I didn't think they were anything to write home about. Meh. Our total bill for two 18 piece plates, a square of honey cake and 1 can of soda was over $45, not including tip. While the old Security & White Building location has a charming vibe, the upstairs seating is definitely NOT easily accessible for those with mobility challenges. I want to like this place more, so I might be back to try their piroshki. read more

Welcome in with a smile! Smells abound! Knowledgeable staff and very thoughtful to my barrage of menu questions. Food arrived hot and tasty! Almost finished the entire meal to include dessert! This will be a place we come back to! read more

This place is super cute. I love the old building in the middle of downtown vibe. The seating area upstairs has a "I've been around a long time because people like the food here" theme. Between two people, we ordered plenty. First and foremost, both my wife and I enjoyed the Alaskan Dumplings. I've had a version of this in Portland too. In fact, my experiences with the Portland Russian Dumpling were so memorable, I really wanted to try this place in Olympia. The dumplings were flavorful and I thought the overall balance between the butter, the onions, the dumplings, and the sour cream was memorable. I'd come back for this dish - maybe in Kirkland? We took the advice of the employee and ordered the Loaded Dumplings. Outside of wanting the Alaskan, we didn't research much into what else we wanted to eat. Hmmm. Again, the dumplings were tasty but eating a wanna-be deconstructed baked potato sans the potato but with dumplings wasn't on our bingo card. The food tasted good...but eating that dish was a bit of a buzz kill, as we were really hoping for a more ethnic experience. Next time we'll order the Buffalo Dumplings instead (see previous Kirkland reference). The Piroshki was on the sad side. I think we may have saved this Piroshki from death/to be thrown out row. This piroshki was lifeless with a barely keeping it together outer pastry shell. The filling was good to the taste but the overall eating experience could have been better. I think our piroshki was probably reheated once or twice too many times. The outer shell definitely wasn't crispy. And finally, the Honey Cake: this was a definitely need to try item for us. The cake was agreeable but didn't move the needle for my wife nor I. I may have had too high of expectations for this item. I was hoping for something unique in either texture or flavor. read more

Food was delicious I ordered the Beef & Pork classic Dumplings I'd describe their dumplings as if a Chinese Style Dumpling met an Eastern European mini Perogi. Loved the spicing, juicyness and overall flavor Both side sauces complimented the dumplings beautifully I also ordered a chicken Piroshki because I noticed they just came out of the oven. This was delicious but the dumplings were where it was at The server was helpful when I was trying to decide and the to go packaging was great so nothing fell over or came undone I noticed there was upstairs seating but didn't go up to see how many people it could accommodate read more

Friendly service in this cute little place downtown! There was a long line to order, we did ours as a take out. Everything was delicious we will definitely be back to try more items on the menu. Really liked the Apricot Piroshki, not too sweet and real fresh apricots. read more

So delish!! The food was authentic and had amazing flavour. I got the Alaskan style dumplings with beef and pork, and my friend got the traditional with potato and cheese. Being Russian I wasn't expecting too much having never been to an Eastern European restaurant, but it tasted great! I wasn't disappointed at all, and me and my friend finished our entire plates. The service there was short and sweet, and the restaurant was super cute too!! 10/10 would go again :D read more

Cute place, delicious comfort food. Seasoned well, and perfect for a rainy day. Their garlic sour cream is something else; a flavor bomb!

My kiddo and I love this location for both their tasty dumplings and desserts. Their dumplings bowls and soups are super easy to share which makes it quite the affordable lunch option. Don't let the line outside discourage you when they're busy because they also have upstairs seating. read more

Really good, old fashioned eastern European comfort food. The Borscht is almost as good as my own family recipe! (But our has a touch of vinegar for a light tang). Service was quick, you order downstairs and they bring it to you upstairs. It's a small, simple, mom and pop type vibe, and we hadxa nice time. read more

Rush In Dumplings - Shrimp Greek Dumplings - Russian Near Me - Olympia, Washington

We love this place! We've been here a few times and everything we get has always been good. The location is a little hole in the wall in downtown. The staff is always willing to give suggestions. You order the main dish and choose what dumplings go in it. We got the classic dumplings (potato cheese and pork and beef), loaded dumplings (potato cheese), beef soup (beef and pork), chicken soup (pork and beef), and honey cake. It's all so good! Definitely worth trying. read more

The food was amazing! The staff was awesome in explaining how to order, if this was your first visit. I will be back.

A co worker took me here for lunch. Wasn't quite sure what to order, so I opted for the loaded dumplings. Sadly they were sold out of the potato and cheese dumplings so I opted for the beef & pork loaded. The portion was very generous. It's was like a loaded baked potato with beef/pork dumplings. Counter service ordering, and you can dine upstairs where they bring you the food to you. Shout out to prompt service of the tables after we left, because I forgot my purse there! Thank you staff for finding my purse and holding it for me till I returned. All my contents were still intact. I appreciate you all! read more

Tried this place for the first time. Very friendly and fast service! The food was very yummy! We had the chicken Piroshki, very delicious. Light and flakey, super flavorful. We also had the Alaskan dumplings with beef & pork and the Classic dumplings with potato and cheese, both very good we preferred the classic dumplings but again both were good! They're even good as leftovers, we couldn't finish it all, portion size is decent. read more

Ordered via food delivery app. Got the sweet and sour chicken+ mushroom/cabbage dumplings, chicken dumpling soup, chicken piroshky. Food arrived quickly. Everything was as ordered. Honestly not a big fan of the sweet and sour dumplings (not pictured) I did not expect them to be covered in so much sauce. The sauce had an overpowering vinegar flavor. I'm also just not a big fan of heavily saucy food so maybe they just weren't for me? The actual dumplings were good after scraping the sauce off. The chicken soup was pretty good and tasted home made. Chicken piroshky was just ok. Not much flavor, chicken kinda bland but I appreciated that the crust wasn't soaked in grease. It was a nice buttery flaky crust. Overall it was good, not great but if you're craving dumplings it's a good option in town! read more

Absolutely discussed. They taste microwaved. Not what I was expecting. Do not go here. So gross. The service is awful.

We came to Rush In dumplings at 1:00 on Saturday for some dumplings to go. We picked the classic with beef filling and enjoyed them thoroughly. While we waited for our dumplings to be ready, we wandered upstairs to see that they had comfortable seating, as well as punch cards for future orders of dumplings. There were plenty of pictures of the food, and the menu had a lot of variety. They had some adorable cakes for sale in their fridges and they were generous with the sides of curry and sour cream they gave us. We can't come back and try more soon enough! read more

Delicious food, kind staff, and a great atmosphere! The only downside is the limited accessible seating. The restaurant is in a beautiful historic building, but it's much taller than it is wide. There aren't very many seats downstairs, but I'm fairly certain they're wheelchair accessible. 10/10 recommend! read more

Very good food, friendly staff! Fillings in everything all had very good flavors. The shrimp ones reminded me of the filling in crab wontons fresh tomatoe and herbs sprinkled on top. We did chicken in the greek ones had a kind of mild chipotle like sauce feta, olives and tomatoe. The soup was a mild broth with fresh herbs, carrots. The piroshki was very filling cheesy mashed potatoes inside! read more

I went with my friend the price and service is decent nothing to complain about I wasn't too sure about the food itself, it may have been the plate I got same with my friend but we both agreed it wasn't too great, maybe it's us being very into food but we both agreed that the flavors are either a bit bland or way too much. I ordered loaded dumplings but got buffalo instead. I didn't say anything I just ate what I got and the buffalo sauce was extremely vinegary to where I couldn't finish it. About the store itself it's pretty cool the upstairs area is nice to eat in, it was a bit hot but that's probably cause it's right above the kitchen. The main thing tho, the food wasn't very good, I think the ingredients they use are good and the dumpling itself was ok, the buffalo sauce really put me off and the soup for my friend was very bland. read more

I am crazy about their borscht, delicious, healthy, and hearty. However, tonight I realized that when ordering for pick up through ChowNow -- which claims the business prefers that method -- I pay $3.49 MORE for a bowl of borscht than if I order in person. $12.99 versus $9.50. What a rip-off. Avoid ChowNow! read more

I enjoy this kind of what I call "peasant" food. Tasty. I have no use for the thousand island dressing with what I think is some siracha sauce drizzled over. What is authentic about that? I asked about a gravy and the lady acted like that was a bizarre request and tried to dismiss me with " well I could bring my own". Weird. read more

I really liked the atmosphere - it is a very cute and cozy place. There was only one person working in a restaurant, but it was running so smoothly! Kitchen is on the 1st floor and dining area is on the 2nd floor. My friends were not the biggest fans of the Russian cuisine in general, but even they told me that the food was very flavorful. I will definitely be back to try the rest of the menu. My only suggestion would be to let customers know that the water is self-served. read more

Really solid dumplings! I ordered the potato and mushroom dumplings - sweet and spicy - they were the perfect meal in the cold weather. Dumplings were soupy but not overly soaked, perfectly paired with the toppings. I also got an Apple turnover as recommended by the woman at the counter. Delightful dessert, not overly sweet. read more

Rush In Dumplings - Sweet and Spicy potato and mushroom dumplings - Russian Near Me - Olympia, Washington

Rush In Dumplings has become our first stop every time we're in olympia. The staff (specifically Alice) is always so welcoming and friendly, the restaurant is warm and cozy, and the food is beyond words. The staff has the best recommendations if you arn't sure what to order. There's almost always smooth music playing and free water in the loft. My favorite dish is the chicken soup with potato and mushroom dumplings personally (that's what my photo is of). oh and the honey cakes are divine! Soft and sweet while being fluffy with the right amount of tart. They sell bags of frozen dumplings to take home for $12 a pound if you want to dress them at home. i can't recommend this place enough! read more

Dumplings were ok. My husband's dish was good since he got a more traditional topping (with bacon and sour cream) I went with the suggested sweet & spicy topping and I did not like it. Sriracha is not a flavor of any dish in this region. So just shy away from those topping options would be my recommendation. The place seemed kinda dingy-walls and fixtures need cleaning, hence the 4 stars. read more

*Open for take-out Nov 2020* The storefront is small, and no one was eating inside. Food was mediocre and a bit disappointing. We got take-out of: *Loaded dumplings with half beef and half cheese & potato (3 stars) - I was most excited about this dish. However, it ended up being some lukewarm dumplings that were stuck together. They had thick skin and bland fillings. The bacon, cheese and green topping was good, but there was no sour cream as in the description. The whole dish was dry. *Piroshki with potato and mushroom (3 stars) - I rarely add salt to restaurant food. But this filling had very little flavor that I had to add some salt and pepper. *Beet salad (3.5 stars) - sweet, cold and yummy. I used it as a sauce. *Rush In Cake (2.5 stars) - It had pieces of plum(?) inside. But the cake was very dry, the cream make it bearable. We also did not get utensils or napkins. Sigh... read more

Rush In Dumplings - Alaskan style Piroshki Potato and Cheese and Piroshki Potato and Mushroom - Russian Near Me - Olympia, Washington

I've been here several times for dine in and take-out. It's a small mom and pop shop with cozy upstairs seating. That being said, their posted hours aren't always accurate and they don't always answer their phone. The dumplings, however, are magical. They can mix and match flavors if you ask, and I've always found a few extra dumplings thrown into my orders, which are always a surprise and highly appreciated. These are definitely the star of the show. There's no wrong way to order them, so try them all ways! The piroshki is tasty! Nice and flaky and not too oily. I also always get the borscht. It's a generous serving and mildly sweet from all the beets. Warms me up! They've got a stamp card, so obviously I'll be back. read more
