    Prom and shrimp and Shrimp & Chive Dumplings w. Pork (8 pcs)
    Jessica C.

    We stopped in for some dumpling appetizers before a late NYE dinner and we were pleasantly surprised with how good LingLon is. You order first at the counter before sitting down. There is water and cups as well. We ordered the soup dumplings and pork/shrimp chive dumplings and they came out in about 5-10 minutes. The soup dumpling skin is a tiny bit thicker than most places but I liked that as the dumplings did not break when picking them up out of the basket as I have had this sad experience before. The soup inside was very flavorful and meat was seasoned well. I love any pork/shrimp/chive dumpling combination and was happy with these. My husband doesn't even really like shrimp and he said these were very good. We will definitely be back to try more of the menu - I have my eye on the noodle and wonton dishes!

    The food is so delicious and affordable! The bao buns were super soft and the meat tender. I highly recommend the duck soup, my husband and I loooved it. It's got wontons, noodles, duck, and more. Great bang for your buck. The food was super fast and the staff was incredibly friendly and helpful. The place is open and you order at the counter, super chill and naturally lit. Great for a chill dinner.

    Spicy Mala XLB (7 pcs)

    Solid xiao long bao (Chinese soup dumplings). I came for a visit with a friend and shared 1 serving of spicy mala XLB and 2 servings of regular pork XLB, and they were all good. The restaurant is tucked in a small plaza with lots of parking available. At the time we visited, there were plenty of available seats, so any walk-ins would be easy to accommodate. There is also a clean restroom available for customers.

    Delicious food that reminds me of my Taiwanese mother's cooking- especially the beef noodle soup- the baos have pickled veg and a drizzle of hoisin for sweetness. Ambiance is super casual and comfy and service is fast and friendly!

    This was our first dumpling restaurant and we sampled way more than our stomachs could hold. The soup dumplings were quite interesting. We never knew soup could be in a dumpling. We loved the spicy dumplings and chicken dumplings. We will come again. Thank you!

    Beijing Duck Bao - A bit heavy on the hoisin sauce but still a great balance of flavors and textures

    What a solid experience and this only warrants another trip in the near future. I saw beef noodle soup which is usually my default but I saw a ton of dumplings so I gravitated towards a pork dumpling instead and the Beijing Duck Bao. Both dishes reminded me of the night markets in Hong Kong and Taiwan. The flavors certainly danced on my tastebuds and I heard angels warming up to sing. I keep telling myself I need to return. Service is far better than many Asian establishments and the small cafe/deli vibe with music is very much appreciated. Will be returning soon to see what the beef noodle soup offers. What a treat! I'll be back!

    Great atmosphere and service. The staff is very kind, helpful, and patient. Unfortunately, the food is good but nothing more. The ramen is alright. It's a nice cozy and warm meal on a cold day, but it lacks in some flavor. As dumplings fans, my family came in here with high expectations, but the dumplings were very similar to the ramen in quality: once again, not bad at all, but nothing to write home about.

    Casual counter service dumpling place. This is my favorite spot for traditional dumplings. Come here for the freshly steamed, delicious xiao long bao and dumplings! Love that the shiu mai have a whole shrimp on top. They also have other Chinese appetizers and dishes.

    Spicy shrimp and pork dumpling
    Dojo A.

    Was craving for some soup and XLB on our way to the airport to catch our flight and happened to bump into this mom and pop dumpling house. And I'm thankful we did coz this was as delicious as some of the best dumpling places we've been to. 1. Pork XLB - 7 pcs for about $11. Loved the simplicity of its flavor plus good amount of broth and fat from it. 2. Beef braised noodle - felt so homey delicious. The herbs esp five spice was not overpowering. It was so delicious esp on a 18 degree weather. And my goodness, there was lots of tender braised beef they put in so you will be fully filled and satisfied. 3. Spicy pork and shrimp dumplings - very good and loved the sesame flavor. Very yummy! 4. Pork belly bao - 2 HUGE pcs per order. It was also a knockout! Good belly portions and it was melt in your mouth. Loved the addition of pickled carrots, jicama and cilantro. Well balanced flavor! So glad to bump into this place and hopefully when I'm back here in Denver, I can come and visit again and try their other offerings.

    Chicken dumplings
    Melanie T.

    This is a new dumpling spot in the Denver area that specializes in soup dumplings. It's located in a plaza with fitness equipment so you might miss the location. It is small but there's plenty of seating. It's clean and bright and feels very open. The staff is super friendly. There's a self serving water station. It's a small menu so less decisions. The soup dumplings and the duck bao bun were my favorites. The soup dumpling was very tasty and when you bite into it, soup does come out. The shrimp dumpling is their version of a hao gao from dimsum and it was surprisingly tasty. The dumpling skin was in tact. The chicken dumplings were just okay so I would personally pass on them.

    Nice clean restaurant, right next to DQ. I believe this used to be a Chinese restaurant but no resemblances of the past. The owner greeted us and set us at the table with the menu. Since it was the first time, I didn't know what the process was. There was a big sign at the counter that says "order here" so I just walked up and she took the order. Menu wise, a lot of the dishes had pork in it which we couldn't have. Ended up ordering Spicy Chicken Wontons, which was too spicy to the point I was coughing uncontrollably for a few minutes. This dish reminded me of chicken meatball wrapped with wonton skin. Quite dry and maybe the reason why there were so many dishes with pork in it. The Crystal Shrimp was as expected but smaller than Har Gow from the Star Kitchen. I'm assuming all of the dumplings are made fresh in the back room behind the noren. Next visit, I will definitely try South Style Garden Delight and Chicken Wonton Soup, something less spicy.

    Wanted a warming snack for dinner last night. So decided to try this gem on my hit list. This place is a true hole In the wall serving some deliciously good food! Everything here was 10/10 Service was quick and joyful. We got the wonton dish that came out first. It was phenomenal, the broth was full flavored with a spice to it that had me licking the bowl. Then the soup dumplings and chicken dumplings. Soup dumplings were some of the best I've had in town. Dynamic flavor that reminded me of the soup dumplings in LA. The chicken dumplings were spectacular as well. Probably the most protein in a dumpling I've had here as well. Composition of the dumplings were perfect along with the texture. Next time trying their noodles and other dishes. Must try!!

I'm not a 'five alarm fire is a great flavor' kind of guy but when a dish says 'Spicy Ground Pork', it better have more zip than communion wafers.

My group of 7 shared the roasted pork, pork and duck barbecue. I'm not a fan of duck so it would not be fair for me to write anything about it, but those who loved duck meat said that this place serve wonderful barbecue duck. As for the pork, both roasted and barbecue, they were so good. We had a little bit of white rice to eat with the meat, but really, you don't need the extra rice in order to eat these two types of pork meats. Since both styles of the pork were prepared differently, I cannot say one is better than the other: they were both delicious. The crunchiness and the flavorful from the roasted pork, as well as the aroma and the soft chewy from the barbecue pork, brings this dining experience to the next level. We also ordered the yu stir fry choy sum in garlic, the combination fried rice, and salt and pepper shrimp. I highly recommend the yu choy and shrimp dishes. I would skip the fried rice and get their beef chow fun, which is exactly what my other group of 6 did. In addition to what were mentioned above, they ordered Chinese broccoli, daikon and beef in clay pot, Taishan five spice duck, salted fish & chicken fried rice. Everyone enjoyed their food and dining experience here. Conversations were easily understood and heard. When asked what their favorite dish was, all of us said we liked everything, but when pressed to give one special dish, several folks mentioned the roasted pork, the clay pot, and the salt and pepper shrimp. Service here was excellent. The manager was very accommodating to our large group of diners, coming back and making sure we are doing fine as he refilled our water glasses.
