    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?

    Really nice place! Cool decor. The people were very nice and attentive. The server was very patient…read morewith us tourists. I had rose oolong tea, and an alligator roll along with the Maine crab roll. I love tempura in my sushi! Alligator roll had a great crunch. Definitely glad we found it!

    Watami made me think I was finding a hidden gem that you wouldn't find unless you were looking for…read moreit. A gem of a place it is too, with very welcoming and attentive staff and great food. 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.

    I drive by here every day and finally called in a takeout order. Got sausage dumplings, duck ramen…read moreand vegetable ramen. When I went to pick it up, the restaurant was much bigger than I expected. Full bar, lots of tables and chairs and the aroma was making my stomach grumble with anticipation. Staff were lovely, prices reasonable. Got home and it was like being back in Japan. The soup was separate and pouring it onto the ramen was delightful. The dumplings were perfect and yummy. I had the duck ramen and not only did I eat the whole thing, I drank what was left of the soup.. large portions and very delicious. I could go on and on!!! Go there!

    Wow!!! We live nearby and I was like "let's try", I am so glad I did. First off when we got there…read moreparking is a bit funky, we parked in the upper lot an walked down. OK so we are in. The moment you walk in you can smell authenticity! We started with the pan fry dumplings which were delicious and served with a sauce unlike anything I had before. My bride opted for a pork noodle bowl.......loved it, I got the Dan Dan peanut noodle bowl. This dish had such depth in the flavor, it was not a quick sauce off. I noticed the sesame oil roasting of the peanuts in my dish, it just added that level of complexity and flavor. Prices are exceptional, two of us ate, 1 drink each, app and two dishes $60. I love Anju a ton also, but these flavor profiles are completely different. YOU need to go her and check this place out.
