Four of us stopped in for dinner and am super glad we did. The dumplings were artistic and yummy. But the real star were the hand cut noodles, oddly named Tomato Egg Noodles. Do not skip these! Really good value and helpful server made this a win. read more

No words to express how much I love this place. It's so delicious. The only issue is that it's gotten more expensive, and the prices are out-pricing and turning people like me away. I wish they could do half a dozen dumplings for a cheaper price or have more affordable items on the menu. Oh well. I recommend the biangbiang noodles, the hot oil noodles are also delicious. All of the dumplings I've tried have been amazing- I particularly like the pork and leek. read more

The pork and leek dumplings were perfection. We also had the spicy oil wide noodles which were good, too. The kung pao dumplings weren't our favorite. A little on the pricey side but happy to support a small, local business. For two people, we shared a noodle bowl and two plates of dumplings and it was the perfect amount. Our total was $60 with tip. read more

Don't order General Tsao chicken. Taste like frozen box no other than Costco ones. Dumplings were good.

This place is very unassuming, and if the name is going to be "Amazing Dumplings', it better deliver. And Boy did it!!!! I may have a new favorite Asian restaurant in Squirrel Hill which is hard since I am old school loving Everyday Noodles and The New Dumpling House. But Amazing Dumplings was just that, AMAZING! The chili oil is fantastic, as you could probibly tell since I got both Dumplings and Noodles that came in that delicious oil. I was taken a little aback when the waitress asked me if I really wanted spicy when I ordered and I said yes, then she came out after I had already eaten half of my Biang Biang noodles to make sure I was ok. The spice was on point and provided an additional aspect to the already great dumplings and noodles. My wife also ordered Chicken Lomein that I tried, and the noodles were extremely tasty and chewy. I will say that the General Tso Chicken dumplings didn't knock my socks off, but they were very interesting and multicolored which I had never seen before. I am already planning my next trip back to Amazing Dumplings. I honestly can't wait!!! read more

Authentic Northern Chinese cuisine in Pittsburgh! I never thought I would be able to find biang biang noodles so chewy and fresh outside of China. The chilli oil was not too spicy and the minced beef mixture was flavorful. Also got the sour cabbage and pork dumpling soup, which was super comforting on a cold rainy day. Portion sizes were huge! Food came out a little slow but there seemed to be not that many people working. The inside of the restaurant was well decorated and surprisingly not crowded for a Friday evening. Definitely check this place out for some good homemade dumplings and noodles. read more

With a name like Amazing Dumpling your dumplings better be good... Lucky for them they were good. and lucky for us so was everything else we ordered that night. We ordered a bunch of their special dumplings and they all came with a bright colored wrapper (I assume to distinguish all the different fillings available) I thought the dumplings all had great flavors but I found the dumpling wrappers a bit thick for my tastes. The fried rice was very good as well as the scallion pancakes. The pork burger was flavored well but the bun needed a bit more toasting. Overall Amazing dumplings was very good in a neighborhood surrounded by the cities best Chinese restaurants. The prices were o.k for what you got but the service was very good and very friendly, A solid spot when the Chinese food itch comes a scratchin, Aloha read more

This Illy Philly was stuck in the Squirrel Hill section, between work visits, and I was hungry... My tummy wasn't playing games with me! I wanted something light but delicious, so I ventured into Amazing Dumplings to have a working lunch. I was warmly greeted at the door, and I have to give extra points because when I requested a table near an outlet so I could plug in, they graciously accommodated me with a smile. They put a menu before me along with an order form for sushi, and they had a lengthy list of sushi available! I ended up ordering their Rainbow Veggie Dumplings and an appetizer of Edamame, along with a pot of Oolong tea. When the food came, I was pleasantly surprised with how good the Veggie Dumplings were! The Dumplings came with a side of soy/fish sauce(?), and they were heaven in my mouth!!!! The edamame was good and my tea was really pleasant. I will come back for more definitely, and I hope that they will consider adding full vegan items to their menu in the future... read more

I have never been here before and thought it was a new business. It turns out that they are the same sushi place that was here just with a name change and a much condensed menu. Got the Ma La dunplings and also the wide rice noodle. The portion sides were quite small with very little topping or meat though it appears flavor is decent. Already spent over $30 and still quite hungry and asked the lady where the rest of the food was. Ended up going to another restaurant a few doors down to get my belly full. read more

Everyone knows the dumplings are amazing, but did you know the hot oil noodles are also top tier? They put a bunch of noodles and other yummy things in a bowl and then pour crazy hot oil on top to create a great traditional dish. When it comes to you table just mix up the ingredients and chow down! The dumplings we had were all off the special menu and they were all great, amazing even! The best part wasn't even the food but the cost feel I had that just reminded me of home and how my own mom and I would make dumplings together. Very cute place and I hope the do well/ continue to do well read more

Delicious Cantonese food , tasty dishes , i ordered the duck and was impressed. Good service and clean inside .

I love a restaurant where I can see the kitchen. One of the very cool things about the aptly named Amazing Dumplings is that you can peek through the cutouts in the dining room walls to watch a skilled artist working some magic, crimping homemade, freshly-prepared dumplings. These are as beautiful to look at as they are to eat. We tried the Van Gogh starry vegetable dumplings (fresh and flavorful and not at all stewy or mushy inside) and the hot oil sesame dumplings (nice and spicy but not wildly so, with a tasty pork filling--the sauce was so good that my veggie dumplings made their way in for a dip too!) Also, there are a lot of restaurants in Pittsburgh that go out of their way to really tank a scallion pancake into a gloopy, rubbery, doughy disappointment. The best scallion pancake I've ever had was in Philly and I haven't (until today!) found one in PGH to even come close. Found it. The scallion pancake at Amazing Dumplings is just that--amazingly light, flaky, crispy, just as they should be. Service was fast and so friendly. I'm sad I waited so long to try this place. Going back soon to try beef/onion and mala dumplings (with another scallion pancake). read more

Amazing Dumplings - Dumpling - Chinese Near Me - Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania

Really good new location for dumplings. I think the restaurant reinvented itself from previously just being a sushi restaurant (there still is a sushi bar available here). I tried the veggie and beef & onion dumplings. Both were very good and clearly handmade. I had a hard time choosing which dumplings to order here, and that was because there were so many that sounded good. In the future, I would try the kung pao chicken, sesame/chili, ma po tofu, and egg and chive. I look forward to returning. I also had a Chinese herbal iced tea (from a can) that was really good. Try it out! read more

What is a dumpling but a self-contained mouthful of pure joy! Northern Chinese cuisine is known for their wheat-based noodles and dumpling wrappers. The variety of both traditional and lots of creative new dumplings at this restaurant makes it a fun experience to share with a group. The owner Ping uses natural vegetable pigments to color the wrappers, and comes up with fun holiday versions -- I wish the Thanksgiving turkey-corn-green bean dumplings were on the regular rotation. My favorite dishes are the biang biang noodles with the chopped peppers and the pickled vegetable soup with dumplings. The biang biang noodles with peppers also comes with the delicious meat sauce -- I wished I knew that sooner as my family always wanted the beef, but the combined pepper and beef toppings is really, really delicious. You can also ask them to prepare a vegan version of the biang biang noodles with just the peppers (hold the meat), and there is a tomato egg version as well. The pickled vegetable soup is delicious, and comes with pork dumplings, but again you can ask them to substitute the vegetable dumplings. I just learned that she does a dumpling wrapping class followed by dinner once a month, and will have to check that out. They have a regular menu, a sushi menu, and a specials page for the seasonal dumpling creations. read more

just like the name... the dumplings were amazing. General tao, hot oil, and kung pao were our favorites. service was incredible too.

Everything here is amazing! For the food to the service, they always go above and beyond. Never had a bad experience.

A meal of legendary proportions! A unique experience surrounded by beautifully curated art work. The entire experience is masterfully displayed. The dumplings are gorgeous and I truly experienced flavors for the first time. Friendly, accommodating and kind proprietors who take great pride in sharing their culture and cuisine. Great for a large group or an intimate meal. Amazing Dumpling's is re-inventing Chinese dining. This is not your grandmothers Chow Mein - it is art and it will nourish you in every way! read more

Very little lamb in lamb soup and charged 19 dollars. Most things are overcharged. Blue dumplings don't look appetizing.

I was in the mood for delicious dumplings so my boyfriend and I headed over to try out Amazing Dumplings. It was not busy around lunch time but after the meal I had, I predict this place will see a lot of business. We ordered the laotongguan pork sandwich, biang biang noodles, and spicy beef dumplings. Absolutely delicious! The sandwich is a crispy pancake like bread with juicy pork meat in the middle. The crispy texture of the bread is perfect for sopping up the flavors of the pork... and the bite... a so satisfying. The dumplings were nicely presented. Dumpling had a nice chewy texture that comes with being handmade and the beef was well flavored. My favorite, though, were the biang biang noodles. I loved these noodles... we asked for it less spicy, which I think is good for most palates. It's a big bowl, of wide noodles and complex flavors... chili flakes, vinegar, Sichuan pepper, and and crunchy bean sprouts. I plan on going back to try more of their dishes. The service was nice and our waitress, who I suspect, also prepares the meals, shared a few interesting facts about the food, which I appreciated. I highly recommend trying them out! read more

The service was amazing. The food was amazing just a little overpriced, but perfect .

This lovely little restaurant is a treasure that I would like to personally welcome to the Pittsburgh restaurant scene. It features some of the best dumplings and noodles I've ever had, and friendly people who make it feel like you've been invited to eat at their home. I had the chicken dumplings and chicken hot oil noodles. Both were incredibly authentic and delicious, and there was enough for two additional meals. The person serving us lovingly boxed up the food so that could be possible. As a relocated New Yorker, it's a thrill to find this high quality Northern Chinese Cuisine right in my neighborhood. I can't wait to try the whole rest of the menu! read more

Great dumplings. Even better service! My wife and I were having a "Treat Yo Self" afternoon and visited Amazing Dumplings for a quick afternoon snack. But we are eager to return soon for an actual meal. We shared orders of the Kung Pao Chicken Dumplings and the Leak and Pork Dumplings. The Kung Pao chicken dumplings were delicious. Well seasoned with a hint of heat. But my favorite were the pork dumplings - just absolute perfection. A nice firm, but tender outside with perfectly cooked savory pork inside. But the coolest part of this place? The dumplings are not just delicious, but beautiful! We were fortunate enough to talk with the chef and she explained how she uses natural colors from fruits and vegetables to give the dumplings a rainbow of colors! We will be back soon - looking to try even more dumplings and soups. Support this great restaurant! read more

Really, really good. I've walked past this place for years, but recently read a little about their story. Fantastic authentic dumplings. Extremely polite owners running the place. Nobody was in there when I went, but I could tell they have a comfortable vibe. Definitely worth a visit. read more

Amazing Dumplings - Shrimp Rice Noodle Roll and mapo Ma Po Tofu Dumpling - Chinese Near Me - Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania

Overall pretty tasty for everything we tried. I'm unsure if this is just our bad luck or if this is how they do it, but everything pretty much came out cold/slightly warm. Nothing was fresh out of the pot and I'm sure flavor wise, everything would taste so much better if it was hot and freshly made. Pork lotus was my favorite, very savory and packed with flavor. Ma po tofu was pleasantly better than I thought but I personally didn't love it. The dumplings made in the Van Gogh style are fun but doesn't change the flavor of the filling and is more expensive for the design only. We also had noddles but like I said, it came out cold and the noodles stuck to each other very badly. Still yummy but just not as good as it could've been. Service was also a little frustrated with us when we had additional requests like bowls for sharing or when we asked for chili oil. Would come back only cause this is one of the few places in Pittsburgh that serves interesting and more authentic homemade Chinese dumplings but it honestly wasn't anything to write home about... read more

Very enjoyable meal. Variety of dumplings, noodle soups, sushi and other small food dishes. Spicy doesn't necessarily mean hot. The spicy Lamb soup was very flavorful as was the pork pancake but not spicy hot. The pork and Lotus root dumplings were a little spicy but not overpowering. Nice clean atmosphere. All of the tables have the same wooden chairs which are very low and somewhat uncomfortable but a minor inconvenience if you want to eat in. Good service and attentive staff. I enjoyed everything I tried. read more

Get the hot oil wide beef noodles and the spicy beef dumplings! These were some of the best noodles I've had!

Hot chili sesame oil dumplings were a perfect match with the spicy chili beef noodle. Dumplings were the best part though for sure.

We have been supporting this business for a long time when it was Sakura. Now that they have changed to Amazing Dumplings, we were eager to try it. We are still doing mostly take out, and the take out menu was pretty hard to find (it's on their old Instagram). Options were a bit limited for us as I don't eat pork, but we got the Rainbow Veggie, Beef and Onion, and Kung Pao Chicken. Sadly the Mapo Tofu has pork in it. The dumplings visually are so beautiful with the variation in color on the wrappers. The fillings were great- my favorite was the beef, which is high praise considering I currently have a beef aversion. My husbands favorite was the Kung Pao, which was mildly spicy. I really appreciated that each set of dumplings came with its own dipping sauce designed to compliment the dumpling, and they were great, too. Definitely will be back! read more
