Reviews
Note: They do offer water or hot tea when you first sit down. If you get hot tea, it’s an additional $5.50 charge.
* Pork and Crab Meat Xiao Long Bao 4.5/5 – Juicy and flavorful.
* Sweet and Sour Cucumber 5/5 – Didn’t come out pretty like in the pictures, but the cucumber was surprisingly very good. Fresh, cooling, nice texture, and steeped in a tasty sweet sauce.
* Pork Wontons in chili sauce 3/5 – I didn’t like this. The pork didn’t taste good. The sauce was also not really spicy, more like salty and sour.
* Q Bao Pan Fried 4/5 – Very flavorful. The bottom of the bao was pan-fried which added a nice texture.
* Pork & Shrimp Potstickers 5/5 – This was the best item we got. Nice crispy texture. A lot of flavors.
Always a good experience at Dough Zone. Of course go on a weekday, less busy.
We had the Green Onion Pancake, Beef Pancake Roll, Beef Stew Noodle Soup, Banana Naan Bread, Beef steamed dumplings, Thai Milk Tea and Sour Plum Juice.
Try it all! Your tastebuds will thank you for it!
We decided to stop by here for dinner and check out their soup dumplings. The inside is brightly lit and very open, with some half walls separating the dining area into sections. They had some instrumental music in the background. The kitchen is mostly open to the dining area, resulting in a noise level similar to a busy cafe.
There is a table to the right of the entrance set up for take out orders. There is a tablet for ordering, as well as utensils and sauce packets.
They mostly have 2-4 person tables and booth-chair tables, with one 10 person table. They seem to prefer seating people at bigger tables. Like seating 2 people at a 4 person table, likely so there is enough table space for all the food.
The staff were quick to greet us and friendly. They gave us one of those paper ordering menus and a pen. The tables have QR codes if you want a picture menu and allergen info. They gave us water and small plates of ginger paste (for the dumpling sauce). After filling out the paper, they confirmed the order, printed it out, and taped it to the side of our table. They checked on us frequently and refilled our waters without asking.
Interestingly, they marked the sides of the bamboo steamer baskets to indicate what type of soup dumplings. Pork is unmarked, chicken is C, and crab is ||.
The soup dumplings were decent for the price. A good amount of soup with a decent amount of meat. The dumpling skin was thicker than expected. However, there wasn’t much flavor. The chicken had more flavor than the pork. We did not try the crab.
The beef stew noodle soup had a rich broth and lean, soft beef. The green onion pancake was very crisp and thin, with an average amount of scallions. The pan fried pork buns had a decent amount of juicy meat, but it was a bit difficult to get a bite of both the bun and meat at once. We tried the Chinese crepe special and were quickly surprised at how spicy it was. Note that their house sauce contains a lot of sriracha.
They have 2 all gender bathrooms. Interestingly, the closer bathroom has both a toilet and an urinal. While the further bathroom has a baby changing station but no urinal. They were both spacious, clean, and dry.
Overall, very good service and decent food. We may come again.
They do what they do very well (and with marked efficiency), but lack a degree of complexity
Service was very fast — this may be my dining experience with the lowest wait time!
(We went back in April, posting review late)
My boyfriend took me here for dinner, we love dumplings and he has been here before, it was my first time. We were seated promptly! The restaurant is very spacious and has a good esthetic to it. Our server came by to take our order, and I’ll be honest. We ordered alot, what I didn’t love was the server asking if we were sure we needed that much lol. I guess my boyfriend and I really are big backs. I could have done without the comment, but alas they were still polite none the less. The food started to come out, big hits for me were the Gyoza, Cucumber Salad, Chicken Soup Dumpling, and their Dan Dan Noodles! We got several other dishes but I didn’t love them as much, still good but not amazing! The dessert was honestly my favorite part of the whole meal! A delicious banana dessert. Would love to come back here, but now that we know our favorites we would probably order less! (The drinks they serve here are also very good!)
The staff were very attentive and kind.
The atmosphere is bustling and bright with a softened industrial feel. They’ve done a good job of making the high ceiling and wide open space feel a bit more cozy.
We would definitely come here again.
