We went to a candlelight concert at the SJ State campus and got hungry afterward. I found this cute dumpling spot nearby & we were seated right away. The interior is simple and basic. We ordered the shrimp & chive dumplings, spicy wontons, shrimp dim sum & wonton noodle soup. Everything was good. I usually don't like very authentic Chinese food because of the strong herby, pungent spice smells but this place didn't have that at all, which I really appreciated. The young lady who took our order was very nice & the prices were decent. Overall it was a great experience, and I'll definitely come back. The only downside is that parking can be tricky since it's in the downtown area. read more

My MBA friend "Z" brought me here so I'm very blessed. This place is great for students for great high quality dumplings at a cheap price. The service has been excellent. I came at non-peak business hours so it was rather respectful and quiet. I'm sure the volume is going to be out the window when it's jam-packed. I hope for their business to do well so keep it respectful despite it being busy. I loved their beef wagyu dumplings. Was so good I didn't even need any sauce. Highly recommend with my utmost respectful regards! read more

We ordered the cucumber salad, wagyu dumplings, marinated beef, and picked mustard greens noodle soup. The cucumber salad was perfectly seasoned but not too salty. The dumpling skin was a bit thick and I would skip next time. The marinated beef was lean which I liked. The service was quick so it's great for a quick bite. It does get a bit noisy here so if you are looking for a quiet place to dine this would not be it. I would come back for a quick casual bite. read more

Came here on a Friday night after a few drinks, so take this review with a grain of salt. I ordered the beef noodle soup, and the standout for me was the noodles. The texture was fantastic - chewy, bouncy, and cooked perfectly. The beef was also incredibly tender and practically melted in my mouth. That said, the broth was a little underwhelming. While it was comforting, it didn't have the depth I was looking for. It tasted a bit bland compared to others I've had. I also ordered the chili oil wontons (8 pieces). Unfortunately, they weren't spicy at all. I was expecting at least a little kick, but the chili oil was very mild. The wonton wrappers were thicker than I personally prefer, though the filling was generous and substantial. I ended up pouring the chili oil from the wontons into my beef noodle soup to add some extra flavor. They also provided a side of chili oil, but again, it wasn't particularly spicy. Overall, the noodles and beef were excellent, but I wish the broth and chili oil packed more flavor and heat. Maybe I'll try this place again when I'm sober. read more

Came here on a Saturday night. I parked at a garage that was roughly across the street. AMAZING food and service! The location is a very cute and chill spot, a little cramped. I will say xiao long bao is okay, nothing terribly impressive, BUT everything else was bomb! -Shumai are HUGE -Hargow are also HUGE -Scallion noodles blew my mind. Tasted like scallions in noodle form -Beef noodle soup exceeded my expectations. Flavorful broth, tasty beef, delicious noodles! Gets my Taiwanese taste buds stamp of approval! read more

Do not let the high reviews this place has fool you, I had been waiting to try this place for some time as I work in the area and after eating here for lunch I was like "HOW IS THIS PLACE 4.7 STARS?" So here is my honest review, prices are good in that "right near a collage campus" affordable type of way but the food really quickly shows you why the price is what it is. We had several dumplings, the siu mai, wagyu dumplings, XLBs and chili wontons. The XLBs were the only decent thing. The chili wontons had no chili, the wagyu dumplings were over steamed and falling apart and the siu mai was nothing special. We also got the scallion noodles with beef and there were no scallions just scallion oil and it was SUPER bland, tried adding soy sauce and vinegar and chili oil we asked for just to try and make it taste like something. I'm also not sure what type of beef they put in top but it was hard to eat. The only thing I did like was the cucumber salad. Definitely not a place I would come back to. Definitely no idea what the high ratings are about. read more

Found this place on yelp, was looking for a DTF dupe, so glad I found it!! We got the Meimei house dumplings, wagyu beef, xiao long bao, ha gao, and scallion noodle with beef. Everything was delicious, my favorite were the wagyu beef and the ha gao. Super cute and cozy spot 10/10 , we had no leftovers! Our waitress was very attentive, and took great care of us. read more

Not bad but definitely could be better! I think if you come here, definitely go for their boiled dumplings over the soup dumplings. I really enjoyed their boiled wagyu beef dumplings! Very flavorful with tons of beef. The chicken & corn one was pretty good as well. However, the soup dumplings weren't very soupy and not the best. The meat sauce over rice was super tasty as well, but unfortunately we found a hair in it. I also enjoyed the cucumber salad which was really addicting and refreshing. The chili oil wontons were just okay; good flavor but there wasn't chili oil on it. Beef noodle soup was on the saltier side but not bad. We came about an hour before closing but everyone was still very accommodating and nice! The place itself was very clean and bright. I'd love to come back for the boiled dumplings and give em another chance! read more

Meimei Dumpling absolutely delivers. The beef noodle soup is incredibly clean and comforting--almost reminds me of a pho-style broth, light but still full of flavor. The beef is super tender, and the noodles have that perfect QQ chewiness that makes every bite satisfying. The dumplings are clearly handmade, with wrappers that hit the sweet spot--not too thick, not too thin--and packed with juicy filling. You can really taste the quality. Highly recommend the Wagyu dumplings--they're rich, flavorful, and totally worth it. Definitely coming back! read more

Really enjoyed my meal at Meimei Dumpling! The beef noodle soup was flavorful with a rich, comforting broth and tender beef. The xiao long bao were juicy with plenty of delicious soup inside, and the shiu mai were fresh, well-seasoned, and delicious. Everything came out hot, and the quality was consistent throughout the meal. The restaurant was clean, comfortable, and well maintained, which made the dining experience even better. One thing to note is that it's tucked away in the corner, so it can be a little easy to miss if it's your first visit. There's no dedicated parking lot, so plan on finding street parking nearby. Overall, it's definitely worth the visit if you're craving good dumplings and comforting Chinese food. I'll definitely be back to try more dishes! read more

The family and I were looking for a decent Sunday morning dim sum spot, somewhere new and off of our normal beaten path. We did our normal yelp scouring and stumbled on MeiMei dumpling and were pleasantly surprised. MeiMei's dumplings rivals a lot of the dimsum restaurants, though it's more of a dumpling house than a dimsum restaurant. The dumplings are hand made and steamed fresh. We had the chili oil dumplings, MeiMei house dumplings and XLB, all were very good. It's a small casual and quaint spot right across from SJSU. We came at a good time but people filled in shortly after, a great stop if you're looking for some good dumplings! read more

Saw the high ratings at this place, so I decided to give it a try but was really disappointed. I also saw they had a sign on the tables saying if you leave a good review, they give you free lava custard buns. So it's a gimmick. Service was good though. Beef noodle soup was small portioned & bland, the beef was tender though. Xiao long bao was plain and not juicy. Beef dumplings were bland and the spicy won tons sauce was salty. Cucumber salad is decent. read more

Was a bit suspicious about the high rating for this restaurant as I saw some folks with no or minimal past reviews leaving 5-star ratings for this place. Came here on a rainy day and saw that they offer a free lava bun if you give them a good review. Was that one of the reasons why they currently have a 4.8 rating on Yelp? My hubby and I still both tried their beef noodle soup and were disappointed that it didn't appear like in the past photos. The portion was significantly smaller, the beef was too fatty and I had to "search" the bowl for three small pieces of bok choy. So be warned! read more

The location is in the walkway between third and fourth streets. They mentioned that they get a lot of sun during part of the day so they have reflective glass which made us unsure if they were open. They were. The location has plenty of places to sit. But was a little warm and stuffy inside so we intended to just get our food to go. Girl at the counter was nice. The wait for our food was longer than expected and cost more than we'd expect for the small quantity of pieces that came with our order. The har gow were pastier than we've ever had before. Which worried us a bit. Soup dumplings were ok. Cucumber salad was fresh but lacking in flavor. All in all it was fine, but we've had better dim sum for less effort with parking, price, etc. read more

What a find! Whenever I come to the South Bay I crave dumplings. Tried Meimei Dumplings for the 1st time and very much enjoyed it. The soup dumplings were my favorite. I also enjoyed the cucumber salad on this warm evening. I also tried the pork buns. They were 'just okay" for me. The ladies at the counter were nice and attentive. I recommend trying this place. It's a small restaurant. Maybe 20 people max can sit in to eat. Give it a try. read more
