Dumpling Capital

Ordered for take out on Christmas and they were extremely busy! It was clear the front of house staff member was working very hard and the kitchen was trying to get out orders as fast as possible. I got my food home and it was delicious! Especially with the busy day, I was so thankful to them. I ordered the cucumber salad, pan fried soup dumplings, vegetarian Mapo Tofu, and vegetable egg rolls. I loved it all, but my favorite was probably the soup dumplings - they were perfectly chewy, without falling apart super easily.

This restaurant is a decent dumpling place, truly living up to its name as a Dumpling restaurant. Their noodles and seasoning aren't overly oily, spicy, or overwhelmingly flavored. However, Chinese dishes might still be a bit greasy, but it's much more restrained here compared to other places. The prices are acceptable, albeit slightly on the higher side. The portion sizes for each dish are reasonable. It's a place I'd want to revisit.

This is my favorite dumpling place in the Bay Area, good quality and value, filling is good amount and firm with good flavor. I also love their tofu dishes: both mapo tofu and golden crispy tofu are great, we almost buy them every time sometimes just to pack it to go and eat later :)
We love their Shanghai pan fried buns too, have not tried their bentos (they have a very big menu!)
