Well, what a delicious pleasant surprise.. This is the first time that I came here with my niece and every single plate that we ordered was delicious.. It’s a definite hidden gem. when we got there it was midweek around 3 or 4 o’clock in the evening, and she told me that that was the first time she’s gone to this restaurant that there hasn’t been a line.I will be coming back for more dishes i didn’t get to order. But we did order the green beans and a cucumber salad, as well as dumplings and wontons and also beef with udon noodles…

Thumbling has been consistently excellent over the years.
The beef roll is a standout — crispy outside, soft and juicy inside, and it somehow stays crunchy and moist even after getting it home. The pan-fried items are must-orders, especially the shrimp and chive dumplings, which are bouncy, juicy, and full of flavor. The sheng jian bao is another highlight, with a perfectly crisp bottom and soup that literally flows out when you bite in.
Compared to Din Tai Fung, this place is much more affordable and, in my opinion, even more satisfying. I also regularly buy their frozen dumplings — they’re cheaper, easy to cook, and still taste great, making them an incredible value.
Dine-in wait times can be 1–2 hours, so go early. For takeout or frozen dumplings, call ahead since popular items sell out. Clean, simple space with friendly, efficient service.
High quality, great value, and absolutely worth repeat visits.

fantastic food, we ordered 5 dishes for two people which was a large amount of food and it came out to $75. Stuck to the most popular dishes and didn’t disappoint, I’d recommend in a heartbeat if you’re in the area

I’ve been ordering from Thumbling through Uber Eats for a while but finally came in recently with my partner and I’m so glad we did. The food is incredibly tasty; we didn’t leave a single leftover. The xiaolongbao dumplings are just as juicy and flavorful as the ones from Din Tai Fung, which says a lot. Noodle delicious and garlic string beans are yummy.
It’s great to have an option this good so close by, and at a really solid price point. The tables were full when we arrived, so there was a bit of a wait, but nothing unreasonable. Service wasn’t overly personal, but they did check in on us, kept our water refilled, and the teas came out very quickly.
Overall, it was a great experience. I’ll definitely be coming back. This place has officially become one of my favorites.
Note: Parking can be very challenging. Definitely avoid parking near the car entrance—you will get stuck.

The best din tai xxx copy restaurants. The got the marinated seaweed bean sprout salad down. As far as pork xiao long bao, Thumbling got the skin and dumpling juice perfect. However the flavor is missing something. I end up using the chili sauce to add flavor to the dumplings.
Finally, the yellow chives & shrimp & pork pan fried dumplings were great. Made to perfection and the sauce really hit it home for me.
Thumbling does get pretty busy during meal hours. The great thing is that they made it easy a really good wait list system. You just scan the QR code and enter number in your party and phone number. You will get a text when table is ready. Food ordering is via QR code as well.
Definitely a revisit is necessary.

Best xiao long bao in SoCal, so far! Everything else on the menu has been top tier as well. The process of placing an order is so efficient that I wish all restaurants would implement the same system. Really the only negative thing I can say about this place is the long wait time, which for me so far has been up to 1 hour. Regardless, it’s worth the wait.

First time coming here and it was busy right when they opened, but it was easy to be seated. The steamed dumplings were flavorful & the steamed pork buns were super tasty and had a nice softness to them. Fair warning the parking in this plaza can be tough.

The tables are tiny, and the spaces between seating were narrow to the point where I could feel servers’ hips brushing the back of my head every few seconds. I personally thought it was hilarious but I know people who would’ve flipped. The volume was likely due to peak hours, but all you can hear is a mind-numbing cacophony of voices and loud endless clattering. I also felt rushed to eat quickly because of the table size vs the rate the orders were coming out when there was little to no room. However, I’m giving the benefit of the doubt that maybe this was customer error and we should’ve put in multiple orders in increments of two items. The entire dining experience felt almost surreal.
The service itself was pretty good in terms of speed and response, but as I was paying one of the servers kept pressing me for a tip. (They also don’t take Discover which I felt like should’ve been indicated upfront, but whatever.) I didn’t press the tip buttons on the tablet after signing because I only give cash, then she impatiently told me “press a button” before going “you tip cash?” when I didn’t relent. I was pretty baffled, and it’s not like there was a precedent of me stiffing servers. I still gave 25% like I FULLY INTENDED, but if I didn’t feel bad for the other servers I probably wouldn’t have tipped at all.
We left and immediately burst out laughing because of how bizarre everything was. The food was great and the prices weren’t bad, but I don’t think we’ll be returning. At least the pig buns were cute.
