    Wow - What a little surprise! Okay, first off, why aren't mini dumplings more of a thing? Seriously a cup full of those little guys really hits the spot! (So do the scallion pancakes!) It's impressive to watch this mother/daughter duo crank through orders on a few different burners on the carts. The homemade sauces are all delicious and the hot chili oil reminds me of Hang Ah Tea Parlor in San Francisco. Look, there a bunch of overpriced lobster rolls and blueberry infused items in the area. If you want a fairly quick and tasty bite to eat on a nearby park bench, this is the place to go.

    Easy location, stopped as we passed by. Wow so good! Flavor on point and fresh! Don't walk by!

    A friend in Portland recommended Lily's food cart to us and we are super glad that they did. After shopping at the L.L. Bean outlet, this was the perfect Friday night meal. The fried rice is a huge portion, the gluten-free dumplings are exceptionally well seasoned with vegan stuffing and the ginger scallion soy sauce is a perfect topping. Lily is extremely friendly and serves the food fast. What more can we say about Lily's food? She seems to have quite a few regulars coming to see if she was still open. We ate at around 5:30 well over an hour past the regular closing time. Highly recommend Lily's, there is a nice area behind the cart where you can sit and eat at tables with umbrellas. Support a small business. It's delicious.

    Mini Pork Dumplings

    What a gem to find in Freeport. The pork dumplings are bite sized and the perfect balance of salty, sweet, sour, and umami. You eat them with a toothpick. The tofu noodles were equally awesome. Go support your local businesses. Delicious!!!

    Lily's was great! Cooked with care and delicious!

    Beautiful weather and the food was excellent. Lily's a real treat! I'd definitely recommend stopping by for a snack!

    Shrimp noodles yum!
    Jeannine O.

    We ordered the shrimp noodles and were really blown away at how flavorful and delicious it was. Large plump shrimp, a nice amount of spice and extra extra flavor! Definitely recommend you try some noodles if you come across Lily's Food Cart. Next time we see then we will definitely come back and order their dumplings. We found them by the LL Bean Village behind Ben and Jerrys.

    I haven't stopped thinking about the mini dumplings since I had them a month ago and i live a couple hundred miles away. Anyone have a good copycat recipe or a frozen dumpling variety that comes close?

    We stopped in at Yarmouth Rice and Noodles on our way back to Portland after a visit to the…read moreflagship L.L. Bean store, and it turned out to be a great lunch choice. My partner ordered the vegetable pho, and I went with the pork wonton soup. We also shared an order of pan-fried dumplings. Everything was comforting and flavorful, and the portions were impressively generous. Even the "small" pho was anything but small, and the wonton soup -- listed as an appetizer -- easily ate like a full bowl on its own. We both ended up with leftovers, especially her. The dumplings were nicely pan-fried with a good balance of crispness and filling, and paired well with the soups. This is the kind of place where you leave full and happy. Service was warm and welcoming -- the owner/server was very sweet, friendly, and helpful, which made the stop feel relaxed and personal rather than rushed. A solid, satisfying spot for a casual meal, especially if you're hungry or planning on leftovers.

    It was disgusting, water downed slop. Every thing was the same, and practically tasteless…read moreingredients. i ordered: orange chicken, drunkin noodle, dumplings, and a pork bao, which contained ingredients I could not even recognize. The rest of it was just handfuls of the same stuff, and only partially cooked. I dont what these other people who left reviews eat, but ive been to jail and the food is better there.

Maybe the lights were a little harshly bright, but otherwise a fine place to dine. We didn't get too many things, as we stopped in more for a finisher for the evening than full meal (we'd come from a party with small foods). We ordered a shoyu ramen and a dragon roll. Interesting note on the dragon roll, it has a sweet potato interior. This led to a distinct flavor from other rolls I've had in the past, and a smooshier texture, but a good roll nonetheless. The ramen was mostly a delight. Sumptuous broth, the egg was not too hard nor soft, and almost all the ingredients were perfect. Which I usually avoid that word because it's too subjective, but it seems to fit here. Major exception is the chashu pork. It was overcooked to the extreme. No other word for it, these dried out circles of meat were thick and chewy, and soaking them in the broth couldn't save them. Sad. Otherwise, some of the best ramen I've had since leaving Japan. The only other note I'd have is I just wanted some tea, and had to order a weird tea concoction to get it. Sometimes you'd just like an oolong tea, nothing fancy. I recommend this restaurant, overall, and hope you enjoy it too.
