    Grabbed dinner with one of my favorite colleagues here! Overall, everything was really good! There were so many options on the menu so we decided to splurge. Soup dumplings were juicy! The Tan Tan noodles were also amazing, a little spicy! A good spot, would recommend! Plenty of parking in the plaza. Staff was also super friendly!

    WHAT A HIDDEN GEM!! If I can give 10 stars, I would!! The food was amazing!! Very authentic and fresh! You can see them rolling the dumplings in the back. All the vegetables were delicious and tasted different in their own unique way. The soup dumplings were perfectly made and the soup didn't fall out when lifting them out of the container. Service was amazing! They are on it to make sure you received your entire order. Quick and fast too! We were so full we didn't even get to try the dessert. We definitely will be back to try their dessert and the other menu items as well!

    This place was busier than I thought it would be for a small little strip mall place (but it was Friday night). We only waited about 15-20 minutes, though. I had edamame & vegetable dumplings and a jasmine tea. All delicious. Service was prompt & helpful. Would Come back again.

    Dumpling Bay was a great place for soup dumplings and authentic Chinese food. The restaurant is clean, bright, and the staff were friendly. The service was quick as well. The menu has a nice variety of dumplings, noodles, and traditional chinese dishes. My favorite dish was the angus beef with broccoli. The beef was great quality and so yummy. The soup dumplings were hot and delicious with a flavorful broth inside. The green beans were tender but still had a crunch. The pork dumplings in chili oil were flavorful. The stir fried noodles with pork belly were decent as well. The only dish that was disappointing was the shrimp shumai. It was so bland and small. The cartoon buns were filled with egg custard and were delish.

    Decided to try this place after a few of my Taiwanese friends recommended this place. Had high hopes as I am Taiwanese and have been looking for decent food in Colorado. Welcoming in the beginning. Seated promptly. Fairly busy, which I thought was a good sign. Nice environment and fairly clean. Ordered the Beef Noodle Soup and the Specialty XLB (forgot to take a picture because I was so upset). After about 15-20 minutes, no update in our food. However, a couple seated next to us who came later and ordered later got their food first, and not only got their food first, it was the same XLB I ordered. I was furious, and still am writing this review. And no one noticed until I had to ask the waiters where's my food. And there was no apology at all! Eventually the food came. First impressions: beef noodle soup looks authentic and tasty. It was in a big bowl but no big spoon with it. Also The specialty XLB unfortunately, multiple of them had broken and the soup leaked. There was no dipping plate, no ginger with the XLB. There was no clarification about which color is which flavor. The ordering system is also poorly organized. I noticed the waiter/waitress looked at the printed receipt multiple times at multiple tables. Maybe that's why our food was late, or maybe that's how the other couple got the XLB I also ordered. I believe they need to get a better ordering system, otherwise, they will get more unhappy customers like me. Overall, a promising restaurant but didn't meet my expectation. Sadly disappointed. I would only go back if they made things right, as the food was not terrible.

    Spicy dumplings

    Located in a shopping mall, there is plenty of parking spaces. We went here on a Saturday afternoon after hoping of passing the lunch rush, but it was still pretty busy. That shows it's popularity given different hours. We were promptly greeted upon entering and they take down your name and number so that you're in the queue for seating. We ordered a few different dishes to try as it's not often we are in Golden. Dishes included the chicken and broccoli, salt and pepper chicken, XLB, and spicy dumplings. Each were good to try, but I would skip them all next time and just focus on their XLB. Perfect thickness of the wrapper, juicy soup, and meat that was tender and tasty. Would definitely recommend this place for their XLB!

    We stopped by here from a road trip around 5-ish. The place was busy but smells terrific so we stayed and it didn't take long to be seated. The place is clean the service pleasant and quick and we loved the meal. My niece & nephew from HI are food snobs and they lo

    My friend and I stopped by Dumpling Bay for dinner. When we arrived, the place was somewhat busy. Despite this, we had no issues getting seated. Service was fast and attentive. The wait for our food was also very reasonable. As for the food, it was fantastic! Dumpling Bay probably has the best dumplings in the Denver area. Everything was tender and moist. Everything was packed with flavor. Nothing was overcooked. Overall, I would definitely recommend Dumpling Bay if you're looking for top-notch dumplings and Chinese food.

    My wood ear mushroom salad
    Sara M.

    A friend had heard how good this place was from family who had lunched as near their place of work. She offered me the adventure of lunch out of town (as I can no longer drive) and we both love Chinese food. We arrived for a late lunch as she had an earlier commitment that mornin and the restaurant is about 45 minutes south of my house. It's located in a strip mall attached to a large supermarket. There was plenty of free parking. It's very new, open only a few months and clearly a new, bright and sleek interior. The kitchen is visually open but behind glass walls so no smoke or tree cooking smells mars the dining area. It's a vast menu, probably a good idea to read through it online to see the scope as well as details. I missed a few ingredient details which would have allowed me to customize my wood ear mushroom salad with less garlic. My lunch friend tried it and was not concerned because she is much better with chopped raw garlic. That being said there was still much to like, a very ample serving, beautiful mushrooms, nice crispy chewy texture. Since I wanted to sample so many items, I saved the bulk of the dish to bring home to share and then removed most of the garlic. I liked it even better that way. I also ordered braised beef noodle soup. The serving was immense so I had lots of leftover to share. It's the best version I have had in years, the brisket tender in substantial chunks, beautiful and ample baby bok choy, nice tender noodles, and flavorful broth. Enough to bring home a full takeout container. I also got a sampling of dim sum items and all were better than mostly all available to me in Boulder. The BBQ pork bun was traditional , softly steamed and fluffy, as was the red bean paste bun. The shrimp shumai were also steamed hot and tender. Even eating far. Less than half of what I ordered, I left stuffed. The staff were attentive friendly and helpful in preparing my planned leftovers to take back to Boulder. I do wish I lived a lot closer.

    We found this place while I was pregnant, which was a blessing and a curse because I have been back every Friday since. The food is simple and delicious. They run with a light staff, but the service is friendly and welcoming. As mentioned, we bring our baby in his car seat and they always accommodate us. We have our go to's (xiao long bao and green beans with pork) but try to have something new each time. We just tried the stir fried noodles with chicken and were pleasantly surprised to learn the noodles are made in house. We have never had a bad meal here. Cannot recommend this place enough.

    Yum Yum Yum! This had been on my list for a while, and went here for a Friday date night. Hubby and I got the mushroom salad, egg drop soup, Specialty Xiao Long Bao 彩虹小笼包 (beautiful display of 1 of each of the following - Original, Szechuan, Cheese, Spinach, Mushroom, Corn, Prawn, Crab Meat), and the pork and cabbage. I wasn't a huge fan of either of our apps - the mushroom salad was very unique, I just couldn't get past the texture of the shrooms! However, the dumplings were where it is AT (makes sense, this place is called Dumpling Bay). The pork and cabbage dumplings were phenomenal, would go back just for those. Their house chili oil was also bomb and mixed that with some soy sauce - chef's kiss. Service was very quick, attentive and friendly - would definitely go back here!

    Wood ear mushroom salad was great. This was my first time having wood ears, and I was pleasantly surprised - they've got a freshness to them. Chicken fried dumplings were outstanding. The dumplings themselves are pretty standard, but the tables have some soy sauce and vinegar, so I mixed those up and it made a delicious sauce. I guess my only complaint is that I wish there was an 8pc option, because the 6pc went pretty quickly, but I don't want to pay for a 12pc either. Food came within minutes, which was surprising because there were a good 20 customers, but only 2 chefs and 2 waitresses. Looks like this place is new - show them some support!

    Pork and cabbage in chili oil

    Loooove a dumpling shop, especially when it's close to home and has a bunch of other delicious things! Wood ear mushroom salad is one of my favs and hard to find, it was perfect. The noodle soup had so much flavor, highly recommend. The dumplings were both delicious and we'll definitely be back to try more. The stand out dishes for us were actually not the dumplings but the other dishes we got, can't wait to try the chilled tofu and a some more noodle dishes.

    They tape a ticket to your table of what you ordered.

    Harbor Dim Sum is by all accounts a great discovery for us as we were looking for authentic Hong…read moreKong-style dim sum. The restaurant was completely renovated about a year ago, and they did a remarkable job creating a modern, welcoming space while preserving the warmth and character of a traditional Chinese restaurant. One of the interesting aspects of Harbor Dim Sum is their business partnership with the Asian supermarket next door, giving them access to very fresh seafood--and you can definitely taste it in the dishes. We came for an early brunch and, as usual with dim sum, what was supposed to be a small breakfast quickly turned into a table covered with bamboo baskets! I particularly enjoyed the har gow shrimp dumplings. The wrappers were delicate and translucent, the shrimp were plump and fresh, and they were steamed perfectly. The siu mai were equally generous, topped with a little orange roe and served piping hot directly from the bamboo steamer. We also tried the tripes, one of those traditional dim sum dishes that I always enjoy when properly prepared. The steamed buns were light and fluffy, and the seafood congee was delicate and comforting--a perfect dish for an early brunch. I really love congee! What I always liked was seeing the traditional dim sum carts circulating throughout the dining room, loaded with stacks of bamboo steamers. You simply look, point, ask a few questions and suddenly another basket appears on your table! This old-fashioned Hong Kong and Cantonese style of dim sum service adds a nice homy touch to the experience. The service was fast, efficient and very friendly. Much of it was conducted in Chinese, which was actually another bonus for me because it gave me an opportunity to practice some of my very basic Chinese. Nothing like ordering dim sum to test your vocabulary! The renovated dining room is spacious and attractive, with traditional Chinese decorative elements, beautiful illuminated panels, dark wood furniture and the classic red tablecloths. It feels distinctly Chinese without feeling dated. There is a genuine sense of warmth and hospitality. Will definitely be back.

    The new management has done wonders for this restaurant. The decor has been updated and the…read morerestaurant is very clean. The dim sum was excellent. But my favorite dish was the braised pig ears. Spicy, a little crunchy, yet also tender. The space is large, so I hope they start to attract large dim sum crowds. I will definitely be back for the pig ears.
