Yum Dumpling is a pleasant surprise, delivering great Chinese food with good service in a clean setting.
The Background:
I rarely go out to have Chinese food in Orange County because I find most places to be average at best. Normally if I have a craving, I drive up to the Rowland Heights area for authentic Chinese food. So going to Yum Dumpling I had some apprehensions. Thankfully, I had nothing to fear.
The Food:
My wife and I ordered popcorn chicken to start and the beef tendon noodle soup and sweet-and-sour tenderloin as entrees. The popcorn chicken pieces were quite large and juicy while the breading on the outside was crispy and perfectly seasoned. The noodle soup was flavorful with just the perfect amount of szechuan — a little kick but not so spicy that it numbs your mouth. And the sweet-and-sour tenderloin was solid. The batter was a little softer than I would like; I prefer it a little crispier to balance out the syrupy goodness so that each piece wouldn’t get soggy. But still, the flavors were there and the meat was moist and tender.
The Setting:
Brightly lit with orange walls and light colored wooden tables, the place is clean and has a warm, inviting atmosphere. However, for a sit-down restaurant, it’s a little on the smaller side. There’s a small counter for 2 people, about 4 tables for 4 people, and 4 tables for 6 people. And with limited space, it would be difficult to combine tables for parties of 8 or more. Oh, and I found it odd for a sit-down restaurant with beautiful bowls, plates, and utensils to serve drinking water in cheap, disposable plastic cups.
The Location:
It’s on busy Chapman Avenue in a small strip mall with a small parking lot with limited spots. Plus, each parking spot is a little narrow, so if you drive an SUV or truck, it’ll be a tight squeeze getting in and out if your door.
The Prices:
Maybe I’m slow or living in the past, but the cost of food is creeping up everywhere, and Yum Dumpling is no exception. Prices range from $7 to $10 for appetizers, $10 to $20 for side dishes, and $14 to $20 for entrees. Our dinner for two came out to be about $52 with tip — a little higher than expected for a place that serves water in a plastic cup.
The Service:
Our server was friendly and knowledgeable. Unfortunately, he was basically the only one working the entire floor. There was a female server too, but we rarely saw her. This meant a little slower service than expected given the relative size of the place.
The Conclusion:
While not flawless, Yum Dumpling serves up tasty and authentic Chinese food (a rarity in Orange County) in a clean environment with friendly service. We look forward to returning and trying the other dishes.
Once the food arrived, it was clear we made the right choice. Everything was absolutely delicious. We ordered the Kung Pao chicken, house special chow mein, and the shrimp and pork spicy wontons each dish was packed with flavor and made with fresh, crunchy vegetables. The steamed pork bao dumplings were especially impressive: juicy, tender, and full of flavor.
To top it off, we had the passion fruit green tea, which was refreshing and the perfect complement to the meal. Overall, the food, service, and atmosphere were all outstanding. We’ll definitely be coming back next time we’re in the area. Highly recommend!
For the delivery, tonight, the food was kind of mushy and we weren’t impressed. The orange chicken didn’t taste very good and was soft. The food didn’t stay warm for very long after opening. We live pretty close so it was a short drive. My dad liked the short ribs, but the Mongolian beef was oddly very spicy, not what he expected.
The decor inside is cleaned and simple and the staff is very nice and attentive.
Overall, highly recommend
Their kimchi is absolutely delicious, and my latest obsession is the special tender beef soup and fried tofu, total comfort food perfection. My niece and I came for a family-style dinner to wrap up her birthday weekend, and it was the perfect cozy ending.
She ordered the cream wontons, which she devoured, along with the spicy shrimp and pork wontons and pork baos. We also tried their freshly made iced teas — she had the pineapple and I had the mango — and both were bursting with fresh, deep flavor.
The service here is amazing! The staff are so attentive and make sure your water and kimchi are always refilled. We absolutely love it here, it’s one of those places that makes you feel right at home.
Prices are quite reasonable for the quality and portion size — for example, a bowl of soup noodles costs around $15, which is pretty standard these days.
Overall, Yum Dumpling delivers solid value with authentic flavors, a tidy environment, and great service. Definitely worth a visit if you’re craving real Chinese dumplings or noodles.
