The service was wonderful. The food was okay. I love me a good dumpling. It’s great how the dough holds such great flavors. These guys have good dough but the flavors inside simply weren’t great. The rice wasn’t even very sticky. Overall the food was pretty disappointing but the sweet chili sauce was pretty good. There’s no reason for me to return when there’s better food elsewhere.

These dumplings were awful. Where’s the cheese? Wet and deflated look like 40 minutes and nobody was in there

Somehow it seemed fitting that it was snowing during our visit to “Dump City Dumplings.” While it may not have been snowing enough to say that it was “dumping” outside, it sure did add to the ambience of our meal.
In my estimation, there are likely two schools of thought when it comes to dumplings. I think you’ve got the “I’m all about the dumplings!” person and the “Ok, I’ll try dumplings once” person.
If you are of the latter ilk and are still riding the fence on this one, please know that while dumplings are featured here, there are other options available (including Vegan choices). For example, I sampled the Roujiamo Pork Bowl and Cucumber Salad and they were both outstanding. Also know that introducing your little ones to the dumpling experience is easier than you think given the selections featured on their kid’s menu.
If you do choose to sample their dumplings (and you should!) you have to consider their dessert dumpling (filled with strawberry jam that you then dip in a lovely coconut sauce). While perhaps not for everyone (and I admit to being hesitant at first), it was by far my favorite of the dumplings that I sampled.
By the power vested in me, I hereby proclaim 2023 “The Year of the Dumpling!”
And that’s…Henry’s Take.

First time visit. Had to stop in for dinner since Guy Fieri stopped by for DDD! This place serves up some tasty dumplings for sure. We shared 3 dumplings, the 4 cheese pizza, the pad Thai, and the Chinese Pork. Amazing texture and flavors! The side dipping sauces were amazing as well. Our favorite was the Cilantro Peanut. We also had the Pinapple Coconut Sticky Rice. OMG! The restaurant was very clean and the guy at the counter was very helpful. We will back on our next trip to Bend!

Our first time going into the actual restaurant. Everything was as expected, a small restaurant that you order at the counter, staff was extremely friendly. The teriyaki chicken was very good, nothing overly special but good. Unfortunately the dumplings weren’t as good as I had remembered but they were still good. Really loved the mango sticky rice!

Wanted to come here for 6 months, it was either closed or the hours didn’t work for me. Wanted it to be great but it just wasn’t. The flavors are kind of bland. The ginger sauce was nice but totally overpowered the bland dumps. I’m a dumpling and bao lover but I guess I’m more of a traditional Chinese or Napoli or Japanese/Korean dumpling lover.
The place was clean, the staff nice, the location very weird… C’est la vie.

I could eat the pad Thai dumplings every single day of my life. I could bathe in the peanut sauce. I have an addiction and it’s getting really serious.

Delicious and super fresh! They have kombucha and beer as well as bottle beverages. Variety of self serve sauces, the coconut was delicious with the pad Thai. My favorite was the pizza and the pumpkin curry was definitely unique. I ordered three and that was the perfect amount for me. Staff was friendly and offered options. Bathroom is outside to the right, super clean and cute!

Great atmosphere and quick service, not a lot of indoor seats but I imagine most of their business is takeout. Dumplings are very hearty and filling, 2 dumplings are enough to fill you up. The pineapple sticky rice was phenomenal and a perfect dessert-like ending dish. Overall great service and friendly staff.
