Very good dumplings, with slippery, chewy skin! The soup is a great addition to slurp while eatingThe pork, shrimp, chive dumpling was the one I looked forward to the most, but I feel like the flavor did not shine through as much as it could have.

One of my fav. lunch spots in SF! Get the tofu skin cucumber salads to start. Ordering soup dumplings might be too much but worth it because it’s all so delicious.

Dumplings were delicious. They were freshly made onsite. You could view the workers wrapping them. Wait was not too long, may be 15 minutes. Good food, worth the wait.

The moment we opened the door of the restaurant, it smelled really good. We had celery peanut, cucumber salad, celery pork dumplings, Napa cabbage pork dumplings and shrimp chive egg dumpling with soup. They are all freshly made in front of you and super delicious. I especially love dumplings with thick and chewy skin. Will definitely come back again if I have the chance. You can also buy frozen dumplings too. Wish I could take them on a airplane.?

This is one of several dumpling spots located around 19th and Irving. While the menu isn't very extensive, the dumplings are quite tasty. They feature a northern style, meaning they are boiled, and there are many different fillings to choose from. Personally, I really enjoy the fish and the chicken/mushroom options. You can choose to have your dumplings served with soup or without; the soup option includes 12 dumplings, while the no-soup option comes with 14. I sometimes opt for the soup because it offers a light yet flavorful broth, complemented by egg drop and seaweed. Additionally, they serve beef noodle soup and a few cold appetizers if you're not in the mood for dumplings. The dining area is cozy, accommodating about 15-20 people, and there’s often a wait during dinner hours.
