This Dumpling House has multiple locations, and today I am at Mama Lu’s Dumpling House in Tustin. Mama Lu is a highly regarded for its authentic, affordable Northern Chinese cuisine. They are famously known for their top tier juicy pork soup dumplings. The crispy pork chop is juicy and tender. The Crystal dumpling is chewy and stuffed with meat and shrimp. If you love pork dumplings, then Sui Mai is a must try. These dumplings are juicy and comforting. Complete your meal with steamed buns dipped in condensed milk. I like their generous portions and casual atmosphere. This spot has great value for your money with shareable portions. This restaurant is like Din Tai Fung without the wait.

Mama Lou’s Dumpling House just opened their new Tustin location, and it’s really good! I’ve been to Mama Lou’s before and this spot definitely lives up to it.We ordered the Kung Pao chicken, beef fried rice noodles, green beans, and soup dumplings. Everything came out hot and flavorful. The soup dumplings were really good — juicy and full of flavor.
Definitely recommend and will be coming back!

Another eatery that I had been curious, so here we went.
1. House Special Chow Mein: 3/5 – just like a typical fastfood chow mein because of the noodles, big fat chow mein noodles, not special or unique about it. The sauce and taste was good. We were told by the waiter that there were shrimp, squid, and roasted pork but we only got fish, squid, and roasted pork. The menu didn’t say so who knows what are supposed to be in the dish…
2. Juicy crab dumplings: 4/5 – pretty good but found no crabs or tasted crabs… it was all ground pork…it tasted good, the dumpling wrapper was thin, dumplings were juicy and tasty.
The restaurant was not busy so we got seated right away and foods came out promptly.
Because we didn’t get the ingredients in our dishes as described… so make sure you get what you order.

This is a well-known chain restaurant in the Los Angeles area, famous for its generous portions and affordable prices. The flavors feel like a mix of Taiwanese, Cantonese, and Shanghainese cuisine, so whenever I don’t know what to eat, I just come here. They have a wide variety of dim sum and even weekday lunch specials that come with soup and rice. For me, the portions are too big to finish in one sitting. I also really enjoy the taste. The restaurant is located inside a supermarket, with a dessert shop right next door, so you can easily take care of shopping, dessert, and a meal all in one trip.

1. Yummy Kitchen offers incredible value with huge portions—our meal for three cost just $20 per person, and we had plenty leftover for another meal!
2. Must-try dishes include the garlic ribs, basil clams, dim sum, and Shanghai-style stir-fried rice cakes—all flavorful and satisfying.
3. Located inside a food market near Irvine, it’s a perfect spot for a tasty, affordable meal with takeaway options too!

I had a nice meal here. The staff are so nice. The house special chow mien has so many different meats. It has chicken, fish, shrimp, calamari, Chinese sausage, prolly some more. The Mongolian beef was great with a side of white rice. Their dim sum is as good as anywhere else. I tried their beef roll, xlbs, spicy wontons, and chicken feet. The chicken feet were soggy though.

Mama Lus is truly an awesome Chinese Taiwanese dining experience, I been to the original location years ago and fell in love with their homemade style Xiao long Bao , rice cakes, fried rices and many other dishes. I’m glad they opened up a location closer to me in Tustin OC, that is larger in space. The staff were very kind and attentive too. Some of the best Chinese food you can get for reasonable prices great for large families too

Second review:
My second time back and for the best reason
I live farther now so coming to Mama Lu’s is definitely a treat and it was a special day so we did the drive out and of course did not disappoint!!
They had two new items on the menu:
Bombay duck fish and red bean pancakes: both 10/10
Hot and sour soup: 100000/10 my absolute favorite
Sweet and sour chicken: 9/10, only cause I’m not a fan of pineapple and it had some chunks but that’s me
House special chow mein: 10000/10 it was JAM packed with all types of protein: chicken, squid, Chinese sausage so so good
Garlic green beans: 10/10 can not go wrong with them, plus topped with Chinese sausage
Pork dumplings: 100/10 the main reason we came, their dumplings are so good here. Juicy and tender, honestly way better than Din Tai Fung
Overall the food, service, ambiance, vibe, and price were all so good and reasonable
$90 for 3 people WITH tons of left overs from the insane portion size makes me believe I’m stealing but guess not!!
Definitely coming back again
First review:
Where to begin.. let me just start off by saying that the food, quality, price, service, atmosphere, and taste were all 5/5.
For food we got the spicy pork wontons, egg rolls, juicy pork soup dumplings, peking pork chop, egg drop soup, pork pan-fried dumplings, garlic string beans, and pork chop with spicy salt.
I give every item a 5/5 and comparing it to Din Tai Fung, even more. The portion sizes are double, prices are affordable, and the food is actually fresh and really good. I plan to come back and try other items that I didn’t get, such as the cornish hen and shanghai rice cakes.
The service was impeccable. The server made sure our drinks were always refilled, we got plenty of napkins, and answered all of our questions with enthusiasm. He made some great recommendations such as the pork chop with spicy salt and the egg drop soup which were my top 3!!
Overall this place was truly lovely, and my return is guaranteed.
