Joyee’s Dumpling House — Restaurant in San Diego

Steamed dumplings tasted homemade and delicious. Mongolian beef with buns was our favorite. Seasoned and cooked well and the black pepper tasted so good with the dish. Fried buns were a huge disappointment. Tasted and smelled like deep fried donuts and the buns was too thick and the inside of it was soggy. Too much bun compared to the pork filling.
