This was our second time visiting this restaurant during their Soft Opening. I was excited to hear that Hidden Dumpling House had finally opened on Freeport Boulevard, taking over the old Yummy Guide Cafe location. I can honestly say they've done an outstanding job transforming the space. The restaurant feels fresh, modern, and incredibly clean. The dining room has a well-thought-out layout with plenty of room between tables, and the mini-split air conditioning keeps the restaurant at a very comfortable temperature--a small detail that definitely doesn't go unnoticed during Sacramento summers. Even though they had just celebrated their grand opening and business has been steady, we were pleasantly surprised that we didn't have to wait for a table. The staff was welcoming from the moment we walked in and remained friendly and attentive throughout our meal. Here's what we ordered: Spicy Garlic Green Beans These were excellent. The green beans were cooked perfectly, maintaining just enough crunch without being undercooked. They were tossed with garlic, onions, and plenty of seasoning. They did lean a little on the salty side, but I think much of that came from the spicy garlic sauce itself. Despite that, we found ourselves going back for bite after bite. The slight heat built gradually without overpowering the freshness of the vegetables, making this an easy dish to recommend. Deluxe Chow Mein (Substituted with Skinny Egg Noodles) This is our go-to dish every time we visit Hidden Dumpling House. It normally comes with the thicker chow mein noodles, but we always ask them to substitute the skinny egg noodles, and they happily accommodate the request. This dish is absolutely fire. The portion is huge and loaded with generous pieces of tender chicken, flavorful char siu, and large shrimp. Unlike some restaurants that skimp on the protein, every bite here has something to enjoy. The noodles have an incredible texture, soaking up the savory sauce while still maintaining a slight chew. The vegetables add freshness and crunch, and everything comes together beautifully. Yes, it's one of the more expensive noodle dishes on the menu, but after seeing the portion size and the quality of the ingredients, the price makes complete sense. It's easily enough food for two people to share or to enjoy leftovers the next day. Overall, Hidden Dumpling House has made a fantastic first impression. Between the renovated dining room, attentive staff, comfortable atmosphere, and consistently delicious food, it's easy to see why the restaurant has already been drawing a crowd. If this is what they're serving right after opening, I can't wait to come back and explore more of the menu. For us, the Deluxe Chow Mein with skinny egg noodles is already a must-order every visit, and the Spicy Garlic Green Beans make the perfect side to complement it. Welcome to the neighborhood, Hidden Dumpling House. We'll definitely be back. Simply Wonderful!!! read more

Stopped by for lunch with my golfin crew and was surprised the old restaurant was replaced with hidden dumpling house. The remodel was really nice. Looks more open and modern. Parking lot still a bit small lol. The staff was one server but she was fast and pleasant. Waters all around without asking which was nice. Soup dumplings were pretty standard lol most places. No complaint there but didn't knock my golfing socks off either. Fried rice was solid, I'd usually put a slight bit of soy sauce but this was seasoned well. Soft rice and good mix of veggies and meat. The garlic noodles were AMAZING, I like al dente and they were perfect with really good flavor. Not overpowering amount of garlic like some places to mask a cheap type of noodle. The noodles here were great with bounce and chew. The shrimp siu mai were solid, I can eat a bunch but siu mai are some of my favorite things on this planet. The kung pao chicken was not bad, unique tangy flavor and tender chicken with crunchy veggies. The spicy dumplings could have been a bit more moist but not bad all in all. I would go back and order the noodles and try other items next time I'm in the area. read more

Food: we got the soup dumplings and split a dinner combo. The soup dumplings were freshly steamed, and I loved that they had a thick wrapper. Some places pop before you even pull it out of the steamer, not these ones. They were delicious!The amount of food was filling from the combo. The fried rice was on point! Service: we were greeted as soon as we walked in. We were able to quickly sit, order, and be served. The servers were nice. Ambiance: I loved the casual setting. Plus the two corgi statues in the corner were an additive! read more

Brought my family from out of town for a weekday lunch. I've eaten at the Hidden Dumpling in Midtown and thought they were good, so a brand new location with lots of parking (in the front, the side, and a large lot in the back), seemed like a good idea. The staff were welcoming and friendly. Service was good, but a little harder to get their attention or checked on, as the place got busier. But our food and drinks came out in a timely manner. They don't have a soda fountain machine, so no free refills on the canned sodas. I liked their handmade lemonade because it was a lot more tart than sweet. My aunt liked their blended taro boba and she said it came with a lot of pearls and some other jelly. Our party of 5 ordered: wor wonton soup-had lots of veggies, dumplings, flavorful broth spicy pork wonton in chili oil-yummy chili oil that I used on everything potstickers-fried crispy salt & pepper wings-crispy coating that had way more salt than pepper, great fried jalapenos and onions deluxe pan fried noodle-saucey enough over the crispy noodles but flavor was on the bland side fried rice (plain)-big portion and super plain Mongolian beef- tender pieces of beef, lots of white onions, mild flavor Portions were perfect for family-style, but disappointingly, everything looked better than it tasted. Wasn't bad, just nothing overwhelming with flavor. I've definitely had better from other Chinese restaurants in the area. read more

New place. They have 3 locations. This one is on Freeport and close to McClatchy. Private parking lot. Food was good. The soy sauce noodle was my favorite. Good services and reasonable cost. Ambiance is like your typical Chinese restaurant. Good place to chill, enjoy some good food and catch up. It's not super busy so that you don't feel like you have to rush and leave. read more

Came here for lunch with some friends, and we were able to try a bunch of different dishes. Everything came out hot, and my favorites were the garlic noodles, spicy green beans, Kung Pao chicken, and spicy wontons. Everything tasted good, not too salty and the portions were huge! The xiao long bao lacked flavor for me. Also, we weren't given spoons to eat them with, which would have been helpful since the soup can drip out. The fried rice could have used more seasoning as well, but it came in a big portion with plenty of protein. It wasn't too busy when we visited, so our entire order came out pretty quickly. The restaurant is clean and bright inside, with a good amount of seating. read more

If you've been to either of the other two Hidden Dumpling locations, take everything you love about them... tasty food, large portions, and great service, then add a larger seating area. This is it, Hidden Dumpling on Freeport Blvd. Great location across the street from the famous Marie's Donuts with lots of seating. For their soft opening (05/18/2026) | kept it simple with their XLB Dumplings. Same great taste and texture I've loved from their midtown and Elk Grove locations. I also got the chicken wings, salt and pepper style. Nice balance of salt and pepper on crunchy wings. Complimentary coconut mango dessert was thrown in... it was delicious!!! With a limited soft opening menu, it's a hit! Congrats to owner Dani and her great staff.!! read more

Hidden Dumpling House - Landpark - Kung Pao Chicken and War Wonton Soup - Chinese Near Me - Sacramento, California

I've repeatedly seen videos/reels of Hidden Dumpling House - Landpark on IG and I take it that it's my sign to try this place. I visited this third new location during their soft opening. They have a location in Midtown and Elk Grove. This is good spot on Freeport Blvd., across the street from Freeport Bakery and Marie's donut. I like it that they have their own parking lot too! The decor is clean, neutral color and simple. It's a decent size and we didn't have to wait to be seated on Saturday afternoon. I knew I wanted to order the Xiao Long Bao. They only have one option, which I think it's pork. Other places usually offer crab or vegetarian options. It's their soft opening so maybe they will add more options later. The meat is savory and flavorful but lacking soup. It wasn't enough soup for XLB. I expect soup splashing out of the dumpling at first bite. My friend never had Sheng Jian Bao. It's a pan fried bun with pork inside. It was good and cutely plated. I do admire their dinnerware and it's something I would purchase for my home. I really enjoyed the soup in the Spare Rib Noodle Soup. The broth soup is very good and the spare ribs melt in my mouth. I wish they had used another type of noodles, instead of the thick lo mein style noodles. Maybe thinner noodles or Flat rice noodles will go better? I also got the mango green tea. I did ask for less sweet and there was no sweetness at all. I didn't like it and would skip the drinks/boba if I come back next time. read more

Came here for the soft opening I had seen posted on their social media page the night prior. Very small crowd but plenty of staff working. Owners were present and very friendly and attentive. They even offered my dad and I a smoothie they were testing out made with coconut milk and mango. Bomb! The interior of the building is done beautifully. One of the owners told us she made every decision with love. It shows. Very modern and chic. The colors of the tile pop. The dim sum itself was delicious. Only had a couple so I have excuse to return but the shrimp siu mai will be one of the orders we have on every visit. Also tried the braised pork mushrooms buns and enjoyed those. Ordered a sweet and sour chicken combo with fried rice. I loved the sauce. Along with plenty of big piece of chicken and fresh bell peppers, onions and pineapple I would highly recommend this dish. This newest location of the Hidden Dumpling House is going to be a huge hit with diners. Between the great food and welcoming seating I expect crowds to form at this location just like their counterparts. I expect their private parking lot to help with that. read more

Gluten-free Chinese food is rare and deserves more attention! Hidden Dumpling House is such a hidden gem when it comes to gluten-free East Asian cuisine. I was so excited to see a new location open. It's much more spacious and has easy to find parking. I ordered the hot & sour soup, beef chow fun, and chicken & cilantro dumpling (all gluten-free and delicious!). The portions were really generous and served family style. Service was quick, and the restaurant even offered the dumplings on the house after realizing that they forgot to bring it to my table. Also deserves a random shout-out: the bathroom is really cool. The sink is see-through! I may have spent a good minute mesmerized by the water flowing through the sink. I look forward to coming back and trying more of their gluten-free options! read more

We were in the area to visit the zoo and had a hankering for dumplings. Found this pretty much brand new spot nearby and wanted to give it a try. Love love love the huge parking lot only shared with the business next door! Win!! The place is bright and cheery inside with lovely decor and fresh flowers on every table. It's been opened only 2ish weeks and was still squeaky clean. We were promptly greeted by the friendly wait person. The menu is varied.... We were going to need a moment to decide. So much sounded delish and I was starving We decided to share the pork shrimp chive and the crystal shrimp dumplings .... Mmm so yummy. Freshly made on premises (you can watch them making them) The place was pretty busy considering it was mid day and mid week. We spied the full table of food at a neighboring table and I had to ask about their selections. It al looked so amazing. Definitely want to return read more

I came here during the soft opening to check it out. I grew up in this area and used to come here when it was Yummy Guide. There's plenty of parking and the restaurant itself is pretty big and spacious. The space has been redone and looks great with the new look. Great place for groups! We ordered several dishes to get a good sampling of the menu. The dumplings are made fresh daily. We got to meet the owner and get to know her a little better. I'm looking forward to coming back and trying more dishes. Pros: plenty of parking and easy to get to. Food came out great and was full of flavor. My favorite were the braised pork and mushroom buns, it had a little kick to them. They came to check on us pretty frequently. Cons: none read more

Had a craving for dumplings and discovered this place wasn't too far from us so we gave it a shot. We were greeted right away and told to take our pick of seating. Inside was nice and spacious with plenty of seating. Our eyes were bigger than our stomachs that day. The waiter even said, you're going to need a lot of to go boxes after we ordered lol. But we wanted to try a little bit of everything. We got pot stickers, chicken chow mien, salt and pepper chicken, orange chicken, pork and mushroom buns, xiao long bao and Mongolian beef. Needless to say, the server was right. So much food we almost ran out of room on the table. Everything was delicious. The Mongolian beef had a little too much onion to beef ratio tho. And the chicken was cut into long strips and some pieces were tough and chewy. Another bummer is no fountain drinks, it's only canned soda which is one of my pet peeves so take that opinion with a grain of salt. Overall had a great experience, tons of food for the price and will definitely come back. read more

Dropped by at 4:15 PM on a Monday for a solo early dinner of chow fun. Upon arrival, I was super happy to find a large parking lot and the brand new outdoor seating with umbrellas looked quite inviting. I chose to eat inside today, only because it was a little muggy. There were only two other parties eating at 5:15pm, but by the time I left there were about 8 tables full and a few people came to pick up takeout. The restaurant is huge spacious and clean. There was just one young man taking the orders and he was spending a large amount of time explaining the menu to those who did not know about dumplings, so it took a while to get my place but food was done quickly. The It was chow fun was good, I ordered it with barbecue pork which was really tasty. The noodles were cooked perfectly; while it was a little lacking in flavor, that probably means that they're not using MSG and that makes me happy. The table next to me had ordered orange chicken and sesame chicken, both of which looked absolutely delicious. I can't wait to come back and try the wor wonton soup and some of the dumplings. If you pay by card, you will have the option of sending yourself the receipt via text and also that option will result in you getting points for frequent purchaser. With 50 bonus points for your first visit and dollar I saw something about I'm eligible for $2.50 off my next purchase. read more

I was so excited for this place. They have a great interior and set up. We went during lunch time and we were able to be seated right away. I was surprised at how quickly the food came out after we ordered it. Most items came one at a time, but it was still very timely and we were able to enjoy all dishes at the same time. The menu has a lot of items to choose from, we had difficulty decided on a few so we ended up getting a lot to try. My favorites were the scallion pancake, fried rice and dumplings. I would love to come back and enjoy more food items. read more

We were the first customers of the day on Tuesday at 11am, so we got to choose anywhere we wanted to sit. Their soft opening sign was still up. They did a nice job of decorating the space, nice and bright. We took some time to decide, dumplings, lunch plate, or noodles or a mix of all. We decided on 3 dumpling dishes. The Crystal Shrimp Dumplings, XLB, Jade Twisted Hand Roll. The Crystal Shrimp came with 6 large pieces, at least a 2-bite situation and boy was this tasty and on point. A nicely steamed dumpling with light fry on the bottom. XLB was disappointing - almost seemed old because only a few had broth to slurp. The Jade Twist was savory with a hint of sweetness but light, similar dough to bao. Had to ask for spicy oil - very good flavor & nice spice level. Overall clean and friendly. Will come again and try other options. read more

Randomly stumbled upon this spot during a sunset skateboard ride with my boyfriend around our neighborhood around 8:30 and the staff was absolutely welcoming from start to finish. The kitchen technically closes at 8:30PM, but they still made it a point to get us seated and served with the kindest hospitality. Everyone was so helpful with recommending their favorite items and every single thing we tried was honestly amazing. We didn't even realize they had only been open for 2 days when we first stopped by. Once we found out they had just soft opened, we knew we had to come back to try more of the menu & even brought a friend with us the second time so we could order more things to share. We were all genuinely blown away. Texture, Flavor, freshness - ELITE. I've been the other locations but this one is hittin different fr. Top 4 favorites so far: * Mongolian Beef * Crystal Shrimp Dumplings * Honey Walnut Shrimp * Chow Fun :) On top of that... I literally love the plants in here. The team, ambiance, food, location -- all 10/10. read more

New spot for Hidden Dumpling, and I couldn't be happier! It's the same Hidden Dumpling that you know and love for their menu and their friendly, speedy service. The new space has SO much room, and you should definitely bring a large group, because there will be a spot for you! As always I recommend the garlic noodles and the salt and pepper tofu. The portions are large and it's all so good! read more

Incredibly happy that the new location of Hidden Dumping House moved in down the street from us. We walked on over for their 'soft opening'. We were happily greeted and were impressed how clean and stylish the dining room was. We chose broccoli beef and general tso chicken as our entrees. We loved them. The meat in both dishes was nice and tender plus had great flavor. Our server gave us a complimentary dessert which was delicious. We will be making this a frequent destination. read more

Same owners as the location in midtown. The service is great and they are very attentive to you. Their new location is a lot more spacious and it's very beautifully decorated.

We've eaten at both Elk Grove and Midtown HDHs. So happy there's now one closer to home! Menu items seem to have evolved some since we dined at the other locations so we were glad our server Dimitri offered some suggestions. He was awesome and did not steer us wrong w the salt and pepper short ribs, garlic green beans, crystal shrimp dumplings, and garlic noodles. Check this place out - we can't wait to try other things on the menu next time. read more

I had high hopes for this place, but it should stay hidden. The Mapo Tofu has no flavor and they use frozen peas and carrots instead of fresh veggies. They use jarlic in the garlic noodles. Nothing fresh here. Nothing inspiring about the dishes. Very disappointing and this place has zero flavor. We didn't even take leftovers home. The price is too expensive for what they give you. Save your money and make it at home. read more

Great service, not so great meal. We tried several entrees, dumplings, and sides. Hate to be that guy but -- only the dumplings, rice, and chow mein were acceptable. You can find much better Chinese food a little further south down Freeport. (I miss Yummy Cafe). read more

We ate at the Hidden Dumpling tonight and was pleasantly impressed with their food.

This place is great and the fact that there are gluten free options available is amazing!!!!!

Food was ok. Service was great. Ambiance was loud, they need some acoustic damping to absorb the noise. Gotta in improve the Chow Fun, it was not up to par. Maybe I'm just picky about the food. read more

Came one night at 845 but it was already closed so tried again around 530pm one evening. The food was good but there is something wrong with the acoustics and I could not hear myself think nor anything anyone on my table was saying. I was relieved to leave the restaurant, which is sad because the food was actually good. I would try it again and see if that sound madness gets fixed somehow but otherwise would not dine in here, as unfortunately, it has to be the loudest place I have ever tried to dine in. I am sure that can be fixed with some sort of sound boards as I am sure I would not be the only person bothered by it. Basically also had zero conversation the entire meal. Service was good and food was fresh. Pork wontons were great/ pancake was overcooked/ peppered beef great/ green beans good/mango-coconut amazing!! Hope it works out! read more
