    Chicken skewers (with pita bread )
    Judy L.

    Dumplings... but make it collagen-rich Collagen Dumpling Dynasty just opened in Midtown Phoenix, and it's bringing a fresh twist to traditional Chinese dumplings with rich, collagen-filled broths. Everything is made from scratch using traditional techniques: no MSG, no shortcuts, just deep flavor and silky textures in every bite. We tried: Collagen soup bao (must-order ) Collagen broth rice noodles Collagen fried dumplings White rice Chicken skewers (with pita bread ) The space is modern and vibey with a cool interior + patio, but still feels casual and welcoming. Shoutout to Angela for holding it down in the front, friendly, kind, and doing it all A unique spot if you're looking to try dumplings with a little extra richness and depth.

    A new place on 16th and Georgia! The interior is really awesome. We chose a table near the back and the waitress was very accommodating. She explained the menu and the QR code to get a full menu. We ordered the collagen noodle soup, soup dumplings, chow mein, and a chicken dish that they didn't have (so ordered the lemon chicken instead). My favorite was the lemon chicken, although the chow mein was also very good. I'm not a fan of dumplings but my daughter is and she liked them. We were given (free) bottled water. But they also had tea or lemonade. Don't know if they will have a patio in the future but it looked like it was possible. It was definitely a fun time. The owner also had his two little dogs hanging out by the back.

    This new spot offers an escape from the desert with a vibey location with new additions to you your traditional dumpling! Looks and feels brand new, and much fancier than your average Chinese or dumpling restaurant. Love the look and feel, and there is a huge wall of green and with a display of appealing colors and travel destinations. Again, feels like you've left Arizona, even temporarily. We were the only ones there for lunch, so service was quick and accommodating. There is no bar or alcoholic options. They offered bottled water (free) or soda products/lemonade. The food ordered this round included: warrior noodles, chili dumplings (with beef), and the "half-moon" - (think flat pan-fried dumpling). All items were great, serving a healthy portion of protein and lots of seasoning/flavor! - Warrior Noodles: definitely our favorite dish, and it's hard to even type this, but there was so much seasoning & meat, we think it needed more noodles to soak up the flavor and/or more veggies to break up the savory meats. - Chili dumplings were good as well, 3.5/5, not very spicy and the broth tasted a bit watery, but once you added some chili oil, vinegar and dumpling sauce - the dish kicked up to 4.5! - Half-Moon was savory and filling! Don't be mad that you only get two cause it was this dish that did me over. Overall, this was a nice spin on Chinese dumplings with the benefits of collagen. I would consider it more of a fusion / hybrid spot than your traditional crumpling house, and it was enjoyable. I'm glad I went. At the table there is a nice menu that displays the history of dumplings. The attention to detail is great. Seems to be a lot of investments in this new dumpling spot - I hope they continue to get greater business and do well.

    Collagen noodle soup with beef and dumplings (kinda bland)

    TL;DR - pricey , AI generated images of food, it was OK... This a pretty interesting spot. To keep it straightforward I think the dishes were a bit slightly pricer (compared to other places) for the portion you get. Maybe because you get collagen in it? But you're better off just bringing your own collagen at that point lol. This is located inside next to a credit union entrance so just keep a lookout for that. The interior is actually nice. Tall, decorated ceilings and walls give it a nice vibe but I think they spent majority of the budget on that because the entire menu is comprised of poorly generated AI photos. Every single one. I noticed the menu had a lab test result showing that their food is "certified to have collagen" on it with Dragon Flame(good place btw) , a restaurant in Tempe so I'm assuming it's the same owner. For the food I ordered a mapo tofu and beef collagen dumpling soup with rice noodles. The mapo tofu was great. Good flavor and it was needed since the sauce helped bring the bland noodle soup up. The service was nice, there was 1 server that was attentive as we were the only ones in there. I know they just opened up so I'll give them another try in a few months.

    Was shopping down the street at the strip mall and wanted to grab some lunch. Found this place on yelp. This place just opened about a month ago as a soft opening. Doesn't seem like the word has spread that they were open but I'm sure as word gets around how delicious their dumplings are, this place will be slammed! The owner came out and brought us a sampling of his collagen beef dumpling with a thicker type of wrapping. It was flavorful and the beef flavor was very subtle. All the dumplings were soooo fresh and yummy . We ordered the beef collagen full moon too but forgot to take a picture as we dug into them too quick! Would've loved to have tried the collagen soup bao but we already had a lot of food. Can't wait to go back.

    Everything we tired was amazing!  Owner was very nice, will definitely be back.

    Amazing amazing, amazing! Everything we tired was fresh, flavorful and delicious. Will definitely be back. Owner was very nice and helpful. Lots of effort into the food, decor and service.

    Soup dumplings

    I'm a lover of soup dumplings. These ones were pretty good, but not for what we paid. The dumpling wrappers could've been thinner but the broth had flavor. We stopped in on a weekend during lunch time and it wasn't very busy so we were able to get a table and get served quickly. The interior was very bright. I did not like that they automatically added a gratuity on. I didn't realize that until afterwards and still added a tip. The price was too much for what we got plus there were random dogs running around under the table which was weird.

    Pan fried dumplings that look like just xiao long bao

    Decided to try Collagen Dumpling on a Friday lunchtime. Unfortunately, it didn't quite wow me. First off, many of the dishes came with a lot of random garnishes that felt unnecessary and a bit overwhelming. We tried the Collagen Fullmoon "meat pie", it was very juicy on the inside, but I wish the exterior had been crispier. The soup bao was decent, but not as soupy as I expected. We also got the pan fried bao and it felt more like a pan-fried xiao long bao rather than something unique. While the photos online look amazing, the actual dishes didn't quite match that presentation. One small but frustrating detail, the plates they use are very slippery and tend to spin, which made it surprisingly difficult to transfer food onto our plates. That said, I did really enjoy the homemade chili oil. It was flavorful and paired well with everything. The ambiance is definitely a highlight: upscale, modern, and stylish with large TVs. However, the food itself could use some improvement to match the setting.

    Stopped in here for a weekend lunch and it wasn't too busy. I think there is parking in the garage next to it, but I was able to find parking right on the street. The menus are all on QR codes and that's also how you order. We got some fried dumplings and soup bao, which were both really good. The standout for me was the warrior noodles. They came with a lot of ground meat to make them extra filling. There was also just a little kick of spice. The noodles had a great texture and the dish itself just felt generally silky smooth and flavorful. I would definitely get those noodles again but also would like to try all the other options that looked really good

    $20 "collagen broth wonton noodle soups"

    This restaurant isn't bad, but it isn't what I would call good. Parking is pretty much limited to street parking, and the restaurant has no signage indicating its entrance, which is inside of a credit union. You order using a qr-code and are provided with an AI-generated menu that doesn't actually describe what's in the dish you're ordering.. There are also two little dogs that just wander around the restaurant and came underneath our table multiple times. Their presence felt a little like a health code violation. We ordered a few different items to try. The soup dumplings were good, but not worth $16. The broth noodle/wanton soups were also just okay; they lacked any depth of flavor. Not worth $20 each. The fried crispy bao and chicken skewers were so oily that we couldn't finish them. Also, be aware of an undisclosed mandatory 15% service fee - we weren't aware and was told it can't be removed. It added over $12 to our order which was separate from a tip. There was also a $3.99 card fee.. the whole experience felt a bit off and slightly scam-like, unfortunately.

    Still in soft opening mode so no signage out front. The bao dumpling. Cucumber salad and spices warrior noodles where excellent. Great addition to the neighborhood.

    Stopped into this cute restaurant after a comedy show nearby and it was awesome! It's is a little heard to find but well worth keeping an eyes out for it and visit. The lemon chicken came out crispy, well sauced and absolutely delicious. We also ordered the collagen soup baos and collagen fried dumplings (not pictured because we scarfed them down; very filling and with great flavor. The owner was extremely nice and knowledgeable letting us know how everything is prepared and even brought us fried pork bao which wasn't on the menu yet I wish I would have gotten his name but I'm sure will on our next visit as we will definitely be back #eatlocal

    Visited this brand new spot this weekend. Everything was fantastic! We ordered soup dumplings, bao, and mapo tofu. They make chili oil from scratch that is SO good. They use sichuan chilis for the oil so it leaves an interesting sensation in your mouth (if you know, you know). Their broth is made the TRUE way, low and slow with all the bones, which leaves you with a high collagen, high protein base for all the delicious meal options. The service was great; April is such a sweetheart and the owner is super friendly. You can tell that he cares a lot about the quality of the food as well as the happiness of his employees and customers. The ambiance is welcoming and thoughtful touches were put into many aspects of the decor, such as chopsticks engraved with "Dumpling Dynasty". This truly is a place everyone should try and share with friends and family!

It's probably the fanciest Chinese restaurant I've been to in AZ. The lunch menu is excellent and quite impressive! There are 8 entrees to choose along with a side for only $20. What's crazy is that a full size seafood and wagyu beef belly jjampong is a side! They're regularly $24 so it's a crazy deal to get an additional entree!! We ordered seafood jjampong and wagyu beef jjampong as sides and genghis khan beef and chili garlic fried chicken as mains. The jjampong had that great umami taste without the oiliness that's unavoidable at other restaurants. The ingredients felt very premium and fresh. Ghengis khan beef pieces were very generous and tender with a savory sauce. Chili garlic chicken was a tad salty for me but had great crisp.

For whatever reason, Chinese restaurants in Arizona serve egg hockey pucks and cover it with various items and call it egg foo young. I even asked about it before I ordered it. Alas when I got home and saw what I had, I was disappointed. It's faster to make it this way but the egg hockey puck had no taste - zero. They could have at least added oyster sauce, a little soy sauce, maybe nam plah, and perhaps sesame oil. It was tasteless. A complete miss. I also ordered something simple, shrimp spring rolls. They were delicious! I inhaled them and will order them again. I'd go again just for the spring rolls. Maybe they have other dishes that are good and I may not entirely give up but the egg foo young is a no go.

Gotta support local when you can I say! The menu is pretty basic and has all your typical options for Americanized Chinese food. Wanting to get something that had noodles in it, I opted for the combination #1 which has chow mein crispy noodles, pork fried rice, and two tempura shrimp. Quite a lot of food and for a very reasonable price! I think the combo was around $10. If you are a fan of bean sprouts, this is your place. The chow mein had a massive pile of beansprouts on top. The noodles were indeed crispy but they was such a meager portion compared to the beansprouts. The fried rice was pretty basic but also a generous portion and the two tempura shrimp had a nice crispy batter. I tried some of the eggroll too which is one of the most unique versions I've had since the super crispy outer layer was either a different preparation or different wrap material than I'm used to. The interior was made primarily of beansprouts too. Service was good. Our food was prepared fairly quickly.

Everything we had was incredible! Unfortunately, I'm allergic to curry and mango, so our choices were somewhat limited. I'm just glad we were able to find these dishes that were so awesome. The only downside is the parking. It's street parking, but there are a bunch of apartments all around, so the spots were very limited. There are some pay parking lots, but they're pretty far from the restaurant. Hubby drove around and did find a spot about a block and a half down a side street.
