Journey to the Dumpling was such a great experience. The dumplings were fresh, flavorful, and perfectly cooked, with a good variety to choose from. Everything tasted homemade and comforting. The service was friendly and welcoming, and the atmosphere was cozy and inviting. Definitely a spot worth coming back to for delicious dumplings and a satisfying meal. ✨

What a gem! restaurant was busy, but we were quickly seated. I ordered a order of the soup dumplings Ingredients were very fresh, dumplings and broth full of favor so amazing! It really reminded me of back home of a place l used go to in flushing queens when I was living there. 100% recommend!

** Wait: Too long – even after you are on the waitlist and check in, the wait was 45-55 mins on a Sunday evening at 7:30p.

**** Service: the wait staff were all very nice

*** Quite loud inside although you do have TVs with no sound showing the local sports games like the Kings if it’s a game night.

*** Food: underwhelming and quite overrated — but lots of pictures of all the menu items + lots of vegetarian options — they plaster the NO MSG sign on the menus.
– Mushroom Bao: bland flavors, and they don’t have the black mushrooms inside. It’s just plain not so tasty mushroom inside, but presentation is CUTE!!!
– Tan Tan Mian – noodles were good amount of chewy but minced flavors of the pork were just OK and this is served as a SOUP fyi.
– Vegetable Chow Mein – decent flavors
– Cucumber Salad was prob the tastiest of all
– Green onion pancakes – soy sauce/vinegar mix was missing flavors along with the pancake itself

Overall, I think that for the long wait, the food isn’t worth it if you’re NOT a vegetarian. For vegetarians, there’s plenty of options but this would not be my go-to-place for Chinese food.

Vibe of restaurant during an evening dinner rush was very overwhelming. This was my least favorite part of the experience. The tables are arranged very closely to another and it felt chaotic. Servers and staff were all very friendly. Nothing felt overly spicy so easy to add sauces for a custom spice level.

*Food Reviews*

Garlic noodles: 5/5 Strong garlic taste

Peking Spare Ribs: 3/5 HAS BONES!! Sweet sauce is tasty. Menu doesn’t say there are bones so definitely a hazard!

Chow Mein: 4/5 tasty and not oily. Thinner noodles

Vegetarian Salt & Pepper Tofu: 5/5 STAR OF THE NIGHT! So tasty but super hot when it comes out give it a few mins so it firms up lol

Pork Soup Dumplings: 2/5 Unfortunately they came undone super easy and leaked a pink semi solid goop (pork) which was not appetizing to look at so we ended up not eating them. They looked better the following day as leftovers

Cucumber Salad: 4/5 tasty and simple

Wonton in Chili Oil: 5/5 Perfect bite sized wontons with a flavorful sauce

BBQ pork: 3/5 We weren’t really fans of this the bbq flavor is very subtle and the meat was a little tougher than we would have liked

So so good! There was a 30 minute wait on a Wednesday night, so highly recommend adding yourself to the waitlist ahead of time. Food was definitely worth it, the garlic noodles are the best we’ve ever had. The food came out really quick even though the restaurant was packed, and everyone was nice and attentive.

Soooo delicious we left early as it takes about 1hr. Drive time and made it there just b4 Lunch. 1st time, we ordered the crunchy Bao buns, followed by Korean Style noodles. They have great Thai tea as well… Great service as it got bust. They were very polite, friendly and most of all Attentive.

Here are the foods that I got at Journey to the Dumpling in Elk Grove! The first thing I got were the pork soup dumplings, and I have heard people compare them to other places such as Din Tai Fung’s, so I was really excited to try them out! They were big and almost couldn’t fit into my soup spoon, and I do have to admit that they do taste a little similar to DTF, they’re not exactly on the same level’s to DTF‘s since the dumpling kept falling apart and was a little messy, but they were still delicious. I would say that the closeness and similarity and taste would be may be like a 9 out of 10. I think personally I would prefer DTF’s, but if I was in the Sacramento area and I REALLY was craving some good quality soup dumplings without driving too much, then I think these soup dumplings would still hit the spot. Next, we got mushroom dumplings, I think? They did have a weird brown outside covering, which I was a little scared about, but it wasn’t too bad! For the inside, it did come with some mushrooms, but it wasn’t anything too special. I wouldn’t probably get these again, but they were still okayyy, like they weren’t a dish that was inedible and super bad. Lastly, we got the leaf wrapped dish that came with some rice that tasted pretty sweet and came with the chicken inside. It was pretty good and I don’t think it was a total waste of our money, but I wouldn’t probably get this dish again due to the price. Like the mushroom dumplings, it was okay and edible, but it wasn’t anything to mind blowning or special. The shop was pretty popular and busy!

Had the pleasure of going to this spot as my birthday dinner the food and service was top tier. We came right in the middle of lunch and were sat with in ten minutes which is great.

Our server walked is through what the best items in the menue were and recommended a delicious grapefruit beer imported from Taiwan. All of the dumplings we got were absolutely amazing. Are favorites would have to be the beef soup and pork and chive. The salt and pepper calamari was soft and flavorerful as was the chicken. I would certainly make the trip out from San Jose again just to eat at this establishment.

Just did an Uber eats for over $100 of dim sum and they couldn’t take the time to add chilli oil to the order. We added a request. The last time we ordered I called to ask if we had to buy it separately and the very nice man on the phone said to just add a note on the order. Last time we got plenty of chilli oil. This time they didn’t send any AT ALL. I’m really bummed out, it’s good food but it’s not nearly the same without the chilli oil. :(((((((
