Well Tasty Dumpling is their name and making fabulous dumplings is their game! My goodness these dumplings were tasty. We couldn't decide on what we wanted so we ordered kimchi, pork and cabbage, bbq, edamame, etc. 15 dumplings per order means you won't be hungry soon. Ended up with lots to share! All were delicious but we were particularly fond of the kimchi, edamame, and chicken and vegetables. Scallion pancakes were equally tasty. Service was good and friendly. Selected to pick up my food but place was nice and clean. Would definitely go back weekly if I lived in the area! read more

Fresh makes for a slower startup but the wait is worth the choices. They do a good job of having a nice selection for you to go into the usual steamed or fried variants. A small list of other options like the scallion pancake is worth a pickup on the side to round out any shareable. Outside in the spring and summer they have a great sitting situation with some shade and pergolas in the common shopping area. Small and independent business you should swing by for a rotation. Only small improvement would be less plastic; where they would benefit from aiming at other plates and reduction options. read more

Solid dumpling spot but not the best. Tiger dumplings is way better. I tried the sesame noodles which was a massive portion but honestly the sauce was super chalky and the noodles tasted plain! I did not like the chicken soup dumplings - the chicken had an off flavor and I was disappointed. However, the chicken lemongrass dumplings had a great flavor and were really good! My favorites was the pink beef bbq dumplings. Delicious and full of flavor. Prices are high for delivery - almost $20 per each order of dumplings! Not sure id order here again but if I did I would get the beef dumplings for sure. read more

My husband and I were HANGRY. I found this place really close by to where we were and we immediately headed over there. The parking lot is a bit of a cluster, but you'll get a spot. We walked in and checked out the menu. They have a good amount of options. We ended up getting the pan fried beef baos, the pan fried pork baos, the pork soup dumplings, and a dozen pan fried mixed dumplings (beef, pepper beef, pork either Napa cabbage, and another pork flavor). I love that you're able to fet a mixture of dumplings for the dozen for 14.95. What an absolute steal. We also got the green onion pancakes. The man cooking the dumplings was so kind. Shout out to the younger cashier who spoke both mandarin and English fluently - something my parents dream of for me and my siblings, whoops. They told us it would take about 15 minutes and was ready in that time. It took us about 20 minutes to get home and dig in. The beef pan fried baos were DELICIOUS. Our absolute favorites. I feel like everytime we order pan fried baos like these, they're never juicy or have soup in them. These did. They were flavorful and literally had so much juice/soup we had to eat them carefully. The pork baos were good, but i feel like the beef flavor was a bit better. The soup dumplings were also really good! Good amount of soup. The mixed pan fried dumplings were also delicious. I liked that they're different colors so you can tell which one is which. They also came with chili oil and soy sauce - i loved that they though of everything! The dumplings wrappers are a little thick and you can tell are homemade. I loved that, it made me feel like I was eating at home. It was comforting and delicious. We would absolutely come back. My parents and sister really enjoyed them and were surprised how flavorful they were. The pan fried beef baos were the star of the show! read more

Bro in law ordered to go and we were able to eat this at home. They were still piping hot and SOOOOO juicy. They were almost like soup dumplings. I love how many combinations of flavors they have. All are super flavorful and you do not need dipping sauce with them. However they did come with a soy sauce and a chili oil, both compliment the dumplings well. My favorite were the pan fried dumplings and the pork and lotus. read more

Now that I know about the delicious-ness that is Tasty Dumpling, I have a feeling that I'll be on a first name basis with the staff soon. I stopped by for a quick meal with a friend this past weekend and was blown away by the vast selection, affordable prices, and friendly service that we received. This no frills spot serves heaps of dumplings (approximately a dozen for $14). My friend and I split some har gow, scallion pancakes, and fried pork/shrimp/chive dumplings and were impressed with the freshness and taste of all the items received. They even gave a choice of spicy dumpling sauce to dip our little pockets of love in, and it was so good it almost made me cry of happiness. Everything came out steaming hot and was served with a smile. I'll have to come back to try their soup dumplings and pan fried bao. read more

The service was really fast when I came in they had it ready as I ordered in advance. It is near my home and Conveient. It was a fast casual type of place. I like the dumplings, but I was not a big fan of the cold noodles. If I come back here, I'll be going for the dumplings, not the cold noodles.! read more

Must visit for that soup dumpling craving! I tried their chicken lemongrass and the pork soup dumplings. Both were made to order fresh and hot plus so flavorful. Out of curiosity I also got the pan fried bao buns and the honey citron tea which were wonderful. I stopped by while in the neighborhood running an errand and definitely was glad to locate this restaurant which didn't take long to receive the order. Ambiance is definitely unique to this location as you will spot hundreds of post it notes with drawings and notes from all the customers which are so much fun to look through while waiting for the order. It is nice that they encourage you to add to the collection while there. read more

I'm not a purist--on the contrary, I believe authenticity can sometimes stifle creativity. I also hesitate to leave negative reviews for small businesses because food preference is deeply personal and subjective. That said, I personally wouldn't return to this place if I were craving soup dumplings. For me, an ideal soup dumpling should be easy to pick up without breaking, have a good balance of soup and filling, and burst with umami when eaten. Soup dumplings are special because they combine delicate, tender filling with a burst of flavorful broth. The rich soup inside enhances the umami, making the eating experience incredibly satisfying. The dumplings I was served: 1. Easy to pick up without breaking - Pass. 2. A good balance of soup and filling - Pass. Each dumpling had a good amount of broth. 3. Burst with umami when eaten - Fail. Unfortunately, I found the filling mushy and lacking in flavor, which really took away from the overall experience. 4. Dipping sauce - Fail. Instead of the traditional rice vinegar with ginger threads, the sauce was something different. I completely understand that the sharp acidity of traditional Chinese vinegar might not appeal to Western palates. However, when done right, soup dumplings have a rich, flavorful filling that needs that strong acidic contrast to balance the taste. The restaurant is clean. Dumplings are cooked to order from frozen. Staff were courteous. read more

This place was fantastic! It's situated in the middle of the shopping center with plenty of parking. I went mid-day on a Monday and ordered the 12 piece dumpling pan fried. Since I had never been before I tried one of each from the left side of the menu (see picture for descriptions) Some of the dumplings had an interesting flavor, but I liked that they had such a good variety. My favorite was the pork with lotus roots and the beef with jalapeño. The restaurant itself was clean and had plenty of seating. I'm extremely interested in returning to find out what the dessert dumpling is all about. read more

10 out of 10 dumplings with all flavors. In a nearby store and we wanted to grab something quick. My husband isn't big on smaller meals but I'm so glad we stopped here. We ordered the kimchi, beef, and two types of chicken. My absolute fav was mixing the kimchi with the chicken dumplings; the perfect blend! Perfectly chewy but also sauce plus we had plain, orange, and green dumpling casings to mix it up. Quick and good customer service. read more

It's always fun to share dumplings on a chilly day (or a warm one, actually.) It's great to enjoy all these little bites of flavor. We just happen to see Tasty Dumplings around lunch time and decided to stop in. We ordered three different kinds from the dumpling assortment. You could tell the different ones apart by the color of the dumpling wrapper. We sampled the lemon grass chicken, BBQ beef and the kimchi varieties. All were a good size, tender and tasty. We also liked the pork soup dumpling. We only wished they had come with a spoon, because, if you have ever had soup dumplings, you know that they are very hot inside and full of soup. If you don't have a spoon to catch the liquid that may pour out, you can make a mess. We ended up using the big bowls which was a little awkward. The pan fried bao buns were good but probably our least favorite as the dough was a little thicker. There is seating inside and a really nice seating area outside. The restaurant is quick serve so you order at the counter and then find a table. There is plenty of parking in the big lot out front. read more

If you know me, which you don't. I am kinda sad because first of all you don't know me and you should. Secondly just because you don't know me, you also don't know I LOVE LOVE LOOOOOOVVVVEEEEEE DUMPLINGS!!! Okay I need to calm down and tell you about this place. Saw this place passing by Falls Church and wanted to try this so took a friend out here. Upon entering it is a pretty simple place. More geared towards take out but you can definitely sit there and eat. The whole place is run by a couple. If you don't know what a couple is it is 2 people who are in a romantic relationship. Yes just 2 people. The whole place is clean and I would love to come here work from here and eat dumplings all day. Okay back to the review. I ordered 4 different types of dumplings and my LORD!!! I am in love with this place. Pan Fried Shrimp Dumplings were amazing. Recommend eating them after a little wait because they were scorching hot. The crust on them was perfect. The shrimp inside was beautiful. Pan Fried Tofu Dumplings. They were really great. Similar crust to the ones above. Steamed Beef and Jalapeno Dumplings were of a different color. Loved the jalapeños flavoring mixed with beef. Steam Lemon Grass Chicken Dumplings were the best and the flavor was insane. Hands down ordering this and Basil Chicken Dumplings the next time. This place is so simple and nice and the food is great that I love it. 5/5 Show this place some love! read more

Very tasty indeed!! I always drove passed this spot and bookmarked it to come one day. Finally last night we decided to do takeout and ordered dumplings! We ordered the soup dumplings, pan fried baos, and the pork and cabbage dumplings. Everything was very delicious! My personal favorite were the soup dumplings. I love how it bursts in your mouth - the broth is very good! We ordered take out, but might decide to dine in next time. If we thought take out was good, I'm sure eating there when it's fresh is even better! It's a no frills spot, don't expect to Instagram or anything - but also means they put more effort into their food which I appreciate. Check them out! read more

Dropped in during the lunch hour. Someone was able to take our order right away and let us know that it would take about 15 minutes to prepare. The drink of Jujube Goji Berry Tea came out first. It was good but the straw wasn't very wide so sometimes the goji berry would get stuck. I know not everyone likes to eat Chinese medicine type ingredients but I was happy to use a spoon to scoop them up. Our orders of pork soup dumpling and pan fried bao came out within the promised amount of time. I was pleasantly surprised that there was even soup in the pan fried bao, was not expecting that. Looking forward to coming back to try the other types of dumplings some other time! read more

If you don't have a lot of experience with dumplings maybe this will do it for you, but this did absolutely. nothing to satisfy my dumpling cravings. I was so excited when I read the reviews and went out of my way to get here, but ended up at McDonald's (true story). It started with a Grumpy unhelpful staffer who was running the whole place alone. Included a very log wait time. They seemed to prioritize the takeout orders. And all that would have been doable if the food had been delicious but sadly it wasn't. And the food was bland and doughy. Bad dough to filling ratios, not delicate dough, and just missed the mark on flavor. If I had to rate the dishes in order of flavor even though they all came short it would be: 1 -pork soup dumpling 2 - beef pepper dumpling 3 - panfried beef bao . read more

None of the food was too oily and I definitely appreciated that. Lastly, they asked me if I would like some plates, which was absolutely needed since I was going to be eating on the go and the portions were huge.

After doing copious research, my friends and I decided to drive 30 minutes into VA to pick up dinner from North China Cafe and it was absolutely worth the trip. Everything was still piping hot (even after the 30 minute drive home) and was fresh. The wonton soup was flavorful and comforting. The garlic eggplant was delicious and saucy. The beef noodles were excellent and the beef was extremely tender. The service over the phone was polite and helpful. I would absolutely order from here again.

Hong Kong Palace

Hong Kong Palace is honestly fantastic. I think a lot of the negative reviews are just wrong…read more I only got two dishes, but that was more than enough for ~$32. The prices are quite good and the portions are generous. I had a full second meal the next day without trying. I got the Yangzhou fried rice and it was very well executed. The meat inside was excellent, with what tasted like lap cheong or a similar Chinese sausage. The egg was fluffy, not burnt, nicely moist, and evenly distributed. Everything tasted fresh and balanced, with real depth of flavor. This is fried rice done properly. The other dish was listed as spicy fried chicken or something, though it was basically a la zi ji. It was excellent. I loved the peppers, and the spices were very aromatic. The frying was done well, clearly cooked in plenty of oil, so not exactly light food, but extremely satisfying. The chicken was crisp and flavorful, and the overall execution was strong. The food came out fast, the prices were low, and the quality was high, and service was good. This is an authentic Hong Kong-style place, not fancy or polished, but clearly focused on getting the food right. Five stars. I definitely want to come back.

Use to not be able to get a reservation on weekend but no longer the case anymore. What went wrong? I feel like ever since the pandemic, they started to go south. The price of the duck has reached a point that is no longer affordable. All other dishes prices continued to increase even though they are always just subpar. On this most recent trip, the duck was good, the Joe-yen shrimp portion is a bit less but the price has increased. The Shiitake with baby bok choy was good but not enough Shiitake. The usually dependable Shrimp fried rice was horrible. Not stir fried completely and no wok taste. Just bland like I can cook it at home. Sadly, that will be my last visit to this institution. Their answer to slower traffic seems to be raising the price and decreasing portions. 6 fried dumplings cost $16. Almost $3 a dumpling. That is price of an entree for 6 dumplings. One last note, I tried to eat my left over duck today and they did not even pack any hoisin sauce for me! How does one eat a Peking duck with no hoisin sauces?

We were like the food must be good lol When we got our food it was pretty cold. Which is weird cause they just opened. During our meal we hear screaming. It was 2 employees yelling at each other. My friends are Vietnamese and were saying that they were yelling about gambling money. It was pretty annoying and I could tell my friends were uncomfortable. But at the end is where it got really uncomfortable and awkward. The food and service was not good. So I tipped 15 percent. I should have tipped nothing but that's not me and I was in the service industry so i understand everyone has a day off. The, I assume manager or owner came up to the table and told me I'm required to tip 18 percent. I said where does it say that? He says on the receipt. I told him that says suggestions not required and that I could give him 0 tip. He proceeds to make a huge scene about the 2 extra bucks I need to pay. I finally cave because my friends were very very uncomfortable. As we leave my friend said the guy was a talking shit in Vietnamese to his employees about us. My recommendation is to go somewhere else. This was the worst restaurant experience I've ever had and all over 2 dollars that they didn't deserve. I see why they have a low yelp review.

I was super excited to eat here again since they had been closed for renovations for a while, but honestly... every dish was disappointing. I'm not sure if they changed the recipes or got a new chef, but the food just didn't taste the same. The salty fish fried rice was way too salty. I know it's salted fish fried rice, but it tasted more like straight salt than actual flavor!! The deep-fried seafood came out soggy, and the beef chow fun was just okay. Miu Kee was one of my favorite childhood restaurants, so this was kind of a sad bad experience for me. I haven't gone back since, and I honestly don't know if I will.

There is plenty of seating that is spacious and well setup, tables are not squished together where you feel as though you have no space to eat. The restaurant is located in a shopping center with many other retailers, so parking is a non issue. I always appreciate good food that is easily accessible without struggling to find parking while out and about with two young kids. We ordered various items from the menu: - Chicken Leg Noodle Soup - My kids loved this. The soup is flavorful and portions are large so perfect to split among two kids. - Pork Soup Dumplings - Solid option, soup broth inside the dumplings was delicious. - Scallion Pancakes - Deliciously fried to perfection. It comes cut into slices, making it easily shareable for the table. - Cucumber with Garlic - Simple dish, but the garlic sauce really makes it memorable. The staff here were great, they were extra mindful of dish placement near my young kids which I really appreciated. All items came out quickly and just as requested. I have visited other locations throughout the DMV and this location was consistent with what I experienced at other locations... friendly staff and delicious food all at a reasonable price. I would definitely come back again if I was in the area :)

For a self-proclaimed Chinese food snob, that kind of consistency across locations isn't just appreciated -- it's rare. This is the place I bring family and friends visiting from out of town when I need to guarantee both quality and a good time. No hesitation, no asterisks. That's a short list. The menu hits two lanes perfectly: bold, soul-warming noodle soups and dry noodles loaded with zesty mix-ins that slap just as hard. The flounder with sour pickled cabbage noodle soup is the move if you want something that's simultaneously bright, funky, and deeply comforting. The spicy beef brisket in golden soup is pure richness -- the kind of broth you'd drink straight if no one was watching. On the dry noodle side, the Chongqing dry noodles bring the heat and the complexity you want from that style. Don't sleep on the small eats. The scallion pancakes and soup dumplings are legitimately all-star -- not afterthoughts, not filler. One pro tip: pay attention to the rotating specials once you've locked in your favorites. And you will have favorites. Probably after visit one. Casual setting, family-friendly vibe, top-tier food. Yu Noodle earns a permanent spot on the short list.

We got the crunchy rice with sour pork (naem khao thadaeu), pork shoulder (ping), fried catfish (patod), chicken pad thai (kua mee), and warm coconut milky dessert (bua loy). All the dishes were delicious but a bit more salty than Thai. Feels like a lot of fish sauces in all the dishes. The crunchy rice came with lettuce but ours were not the best lettuce. The fried catfish were nicely fried with a perfect coating. Definitely a dish to get. The pork shoulder is another dish to get. Nicely seasoned with sticky rice. Their version of pad thai is uniquely different than Thai. A bit more sweet but the lime makes it better. Wife wanted to try bua loy dessert. It is a warm sweet dessert that balanced out all the salty flavors of the dishes. Something to try as well. Flavor are still the same. The dishes we order were too much for 2 of us. My only complaint was the restaurant smelled like smoke when we walked in. Not the kind where there was a fire in the kitchen but more like someone smoking in the kitchen?

I always enjoy coming here and having a tasty beverage or two on the patio and listening to some live music while enjoying some grilled shrimp tacos.

Food and drinks are just as good in the winter but it's not quite Florida weather so I'm eating inside when it's too cold for flip flops. The margaritas are always enjoyable as is everything else I've ever had to drink. The grilled shrimp tacos are also always just right and they bring the shells and tortillas separately so you can fill the shells yourself make them just how you want them. I usually choose corn tortillas and black beans but they also offer flour tortillas and refried beans as options. Service is always fast and friendly here, even when they're crowded on a weekend.

I was in love when we walked in and fell progressively less in love as we ate more of our food…read more Tl;dr - come for drinks, vibes, and simple shit that is good fried. Do not come expecting a solid seafood dinner. We came here after a nearby event. There was live music in the very sizable back lot area. People were actually up and dancing and having a great time. The vibes were stellar. I don't know if I would be into tbis place in the winter if I had to eat inside because the inside is kind of dingey, but outside in the summer is pretty paradisiacal. I did notice that they were doing karaoke in a weird little side room and it did not seem crowded on a Saturday night so that might be worth checking out. Servers were also all super nice. Pretty sure we entered the wrong way and kind of just let ourselves in through the back lot area and then we had no idea where to go to find a host(ess). So we asked the first server we could find where to go and she went "oh I can seat you" and grabbed two menus. Excellent. She also gave us our choice of wherever. The place is huge. Our assigned server was also nice and really knew the menu, which is not small. The menu had a ton of options including some really interesting tofu options and I had a hard time picking so I got excited. Also very customizable where you can choose your preparation. The beer list was not exactly artisinal...a lot of like...michelob ultra. And they had those island slushy kind of drinks. So at first I was like...this is my new weekend hangout. Then our drinks came. They were small and in little plastic cups. Wuhoh. Then our food came. I should have known it wouldn't be fresh. The price wasa little *too* good. When I asked about the catch of the day it was like four different things. I ended up with a buffalo grouper sandwich (grouper was one of the four things). I have had a fresh buffalo grouper sandwich in Clearwater before and that was in 2019 and I still remember it 7 years later. This buffalo grouper sandwich? Oh no. First of all it was this thin, flat battered fried cutlet thing. The breading absorbed the buffalo sauce so I couldn't taste it very much though they did bring me a lot of Bleu cheese dressing. The fish was bad. I bit into it and it tasted fishy and it was dry. Honestly if I hadn't been super hungry I would have just not eaten it. On top of that, I paid an extra dollar to upgrade from fries to hushpuppies. These were legit hushpuppies, but hushpuppies are small and how many did they bring me? 5. Are you kidding? Again, in Florida these are brought free by the basket. They're literally just fried up balls of corn meal. I think that may have offended me more than the bad fish. My husband went witb BBQ pulled chicken and fries and said both were good. So. Here are my thoughts. Would I come here again in the summer for fun vibes and good service? Yes. Would I set low expectations for my food and drink? Yes. Would I probably just order a softdrink and stick to something simple they can't screw up like a quesadilla and fries? Yeeeeeeeah.

This time I went with my vegetarian friend and I think it might have become her new favorite spot. First thing she said when I came in was "there's so many options" when usually it's what can I eat? With a full vegetarian menu, it's a great spot for those who like an Asian cuisine but suffer from the oh it's not vegetarian. Luckily the whole menu is vegetarian. The waiter/server also said they are doing great and planning on opening a second location in Chantilly soon! We ordered the vegan clam dip, shaky beef, and the fish (vegan) soup. Delicious food all around, I always prefer the clam dip and shaky beef. Really good flavors and a great combination. We definitely ordered too much food, so I would say if it's just two, two dishes is enough. Shaky beef was a little different this time around but still good flavor and you can taste that it's vegetarian or some other meat, but it's pretty darn close to beef. The flavors in the sauce and other bell peppers and onions elevate the flavor profile. The fish soup was a new dish, and definitely had a fish flavor but was a little overpowered by the tomatoe. I probably wouldn't go with that one again, but the others were still amazing.
