Dumpling Queen — Restaurant in Whittier

The service here was absolutely horrible. One of the dishes from our order was never made. I followed up multiple times as we watched other tables who arrived after us receive the same dishes we had ordered. When I asked about it, the woman at the front kept saying “it’s coming.” She claimed they make everything fresh and that’s why it was taking so long, but that was clearly not true. I could see the dumplings were premade in the back.

I explained to her that other tables got the exact same dish after arriving later than us, but she still refused to acknowledge anything was wrong. There was no apology, no accountability, just more deflection.

After waiting over 30 minutes, I saw the chef come out front and asked him directly. He told me there were no orders left to make. When I brought this up to the woman, she insisted he was making it right then. What she didn’t realize is that I understand Chinese. I heard her ask the chef in front of me, and he clearly said he was not making anything. She turned back to me again and repeated that it was being made and would be out soon.

She lied to my face multiple times and gave me attitude as if I was the one causing trouble. The food was decent, but after an experience like that, I will never be...

I live in the SGV so I’ve had my share of delicious dumplings and these dumplings were fantastic! Fresh handmade dumpling skin around very flavorful fillings. Prices were more than fair for the quality & quantity. I wish I had taken pictures of the dishes but they were all pretty standard looking so I didn’t think it was necessary.

We tried all the dumplings and our favorites to recommend to others would be as follows:

1. Queen dumplings. I love the flavor from the chives.
2. Pan fried pork & cabbage dumplings
3. Beef dumplings The other dumplings on the menu were variation of the pork & cabbage dumplings with the same delicious taste.

We also tried the 2 noodle dishes and both were super tasty. I prefer the cold Liang Pi noodles but my friend preferred the warm Dandan Noodles. Both were really delicious and are worth ordering.

Only thing lacking is that everything is served in “To Go” containers except the soup dumplings bcs it’s literally in soup and NOT Xiao Long Bao. Also, they give you paper boats to use for family style sharing which is not the best in terms of sturdiness.

Conclusion: I would definitely recommend and it will always be on my radar when I’m...

Enjoyed lunch here to satisfy my dumpling craving. I ordered the lunch special Dan Dan noodles. My friend ordered the pan fried dumplings. After enjoying, I ordered the sichuan spicy dumplings. The Dan Dan noodles were huge! A great value for the money. Very tasty, flavorful, and filling. I would not call them spicy, but they did have house made chili oil on the table, which helped. My friend said the pan fried dumplings were delicious. Juicy and flavorful. The sichuan dumplings were just okay. Not spicy, but had a good flavor. The server, who appeared to be the son of the dumpling queen, was great. Friendly and very he,Paul. He ran the whole front of house and dining room himself. I...
