    I wish I came here when they opened. All the food that we ordered during lunch was delicious. The shrimp tempura came with a sweet chili sauce, pan-fried shrimp and pork dumplings (they charge $1 for pan-fried), and Mongolian beef. The place is large and the staff were efficient and friendly. Their dinnerware is branded with their logo. I will definitely come here again to try their other menu items.

    Great food and awesome service. I wish the Xiao Long Bao skin was a little thinner, but it was still pretty good. I really enjoyed the Hand Wide Noodles, they were flavorful, tasty, and not too spicy. The environment was clean and bright

    (+) Food was good or OK depending on the dish. Personally, I like the beef noodle soup. Everything else was OK. (+) A Chinese offering in an area that does not have much in this type of cuisine is a nice benefit for those who live nearby. (+) The interior is clean and new (+) Our server was bilingual and courteous. (+) Plenty of parking. (-) The prices are on the steeper side. Also, tips are counted on top of tax Discovered this place a few weeks ago and got a chance to give it a visit on a Saturday evening around 6:15pm. There was a 10-15 minute wait and then we were seated at a nice long booth for our party of 4. It was a pleasant experience, up until the bill came. It might be a Chowbus thing, but they count their tips after/on top of tax which irritates me. On top of that, their tip scale starts at 18%, and of course you experience that awkward scenario where you press those buttons on the tablet while they are standing over you. All in all, this was an OK meal. If I am in the immediate area and craving dumplings, I may return.

    New restaurant, great food! We had different sets of dumplings, both pan fried and steamed. There is so much flavor in each bite. Fillings were adequate, each dumpling was filled properly. My favorite was the pan fried dumplings but the steamed dumplings were really fresh and hot as well. Xiao long baos were also really good. I want to come back!

    Came here after a friend recommended it. The place was clean and you could order from the QR code on the table or from the waiter. Our group ordered 4 different dumplings, chili oil wontons, and the cucumber salad to share. The standout dumplings were the fried. The crispy bottom was great! The cucumber salad was refreshing and I enjoyed the chunky pieces vs. the usual sliced. The dumplings here are small in size which I wasn't into. Literally bite sized.

    SteamDumpling located in Stafford is relatively new. The restaurant is brightly lit, and is decorated simply. There are seats for big and small groups. Finding a parking spot in the strip mall is also easy and free! My family and I were seated promptly. The service staff was very friendly and polite. We had fried tofu, Chinese style fried chicken, Szechuan eggplant, Dan Dan noodle, xiao long bao, and pan fried pork and shrimp dumplings. Both appetizer dishes were good. The fired tofu was presented in small cubes, and the Chinese style fried chicken reminded me of popcorn chicken. Both dishes were fried well, and we could just popped them into our mouths. The eggplant had the right spiciness, and was cooked really well. Dan Dan noodle had a good proportion of meat to noodles. Both dumpling dishes were really tasty too. The fillings were ample, and the dumpling skins weren't thick. I can see this as our staple restaurant to go to when we crave for dumplings and more.

    The wide hand-pulled noodles were definitely the standout dish for me: chewy, flavorful, and perfectly done. So good we ordered another one! The eggplant, green beans, and cucumber dishes were all solid classic staples you'd expect at many Asian restaurants, but still very tasty. The crispy lace on the pan-fried dumplings was a great touch and added a nice texture. Didn't like the clear broth beef noodle soup as it lacked flavor. Portion sizes were a bit on the smaller side, especially if you're coming with a larger group to share multiple dishes. The price for how full you felt was slightly lower than at other restaurants esp. compared to those in Chinatown. Overall, it's a fairly average Chinese restaurant, but with a few standout items and friendly service. Given the limited competition in the area, it's a great option and I'll be back.

    Wow, this place was very unassuming but absolutely blew me away. SOOO fire. Got exactly what I wanted when I ordered these dishes. Crispy spicy fried chicken Chewy spicy hand pulled single noodle Juicy piping hot soup dumplings Crispy salty shrimp Soft, wok caramelized perfect eggplant I had brought dessert and they were even nice enough to store it in the fridge for us until after our meal. 5 STARS!!!!

    I'm not sure if it gets much better than this. Steam Dumpling offers authentic soup dumplings, hand pulled noodles, and other various chinese dishes. The service is honestly very good and not at all reminiscent of the "rude but good food" stereotype that you'll find at other chinese spots. The interior is a bit small, but I have personally never felt that it was crowded or too loud. The food is really good! With nearby Dumpling World also serving similar dishes, I think that I prefer Steam Dumpling. The portion sizes at Steam Dumpling tend to be a bit larger and the flavors are either very similar or slightly more similar to what I have had in Asia before. Standout dishes to me are the soup dumplings (xiao long bao), wide hand pulled noodles (oil splashed noodles--some of the best I have ever had), steamed pork and shrimp dumplings, and you can not come here without ordering the beef roll pancake. Our favorite dish that we always order one (and have ordered more than one before) is the beef roll pancake. It is a scallion pancake cooked to a perfect crisp and then filled with tender braised beef, hoisin sauce, and copious amounts of cilantro and green onions--perfect! Steam Dumpling will be a staple in our restaurant rotation for a long time.

    Excellent! I'm always on the lookout for great dumplings and noodles so I was super excited to try this restaurant. The restaurant is clean and minimally decorated and the staff was very friendly. The fried chicken was hot and a little less seasoned than what I'm used to. The wide hand pulled noodles were absolutely spectacular! The texture of the noodles were perfect and the sauce was exceptionally well seasoned and fresh garlic heavy. My favorite noodle spot is Xing's Kitchen and the rendition at Steam Dumpling was very comparable and equally delicious. The XLB was also quite outstanding. The wrapper was elasticity and delicate and the filling was tasty and accompanied by abundant savory soup. My diagnosis: come here for the scrumptious wide hand pulled noodles and XLB!

    My family and I were so so pleased about this location, opening up close to where we live. It is so delicious with lots of traditional Chinese food to choose from. Even though I was super busy, the staff or somehow super fast and delivered the food promptly and helped clear the table whenever we finished each plate promptly. I appreciated them, checking up on us very much. I would recommend getting the chili oil noodles. Those were probably some of the best I've had. Also, I really like the fried pork dumplings. Those are great as well. Sugar Land doesn't really have many places that you can get soup dumplings so it was nice that we could get it here. The passionfruit tea was pretty good too! I wish the best for this business and if they continue to deliver top-notch customer service and delicious food like this, they're going to do well no matter what! #taiwanesedadapproved

    My mom & I have been wanting to try Steam Dumpling since they opened. Walk in order on the kiosk was easy. The food was fresh and made to order which is great! The fried rice was yummy with great flavor. The wide noodles are so good perfect amount of sauce and spice. Chicken chicken fried perfectly generous amount of seasoning. My mom loved the beef pancakes. Great service, fresh food, reasonably priced. Cant beat that. New family staple.

I swear it's just one really long hand made noodle, so it's a bit hard to share, but it's a must-get. We also tried the Claypot noodle and it was good as well but a bit of an acquired taste. The restaurant is located inside Jusgo grocery store. The seating is quite limited so I wouldn't recommend it for large parties. And it's pretty mom and pop, so if that's your jam, go for it. Chairs are mismatched, drinking water is somewhat self-service in small cafeteria-style plastic cups, and tables are small. Like I said - mom and pop, and that's not a bad thing. It's just not exactly a place where you would have a nice business meeting. Service was ok - nothing to note. You pay at the cashier which is like 2 feet from where you ate. Yes, it's a small space. Overall - I love this place and will keep coming back.

    My BF told me this place has incredible food for great value…read more Beef Noodle Soup - This is only $10? The value is as incredible as the flavor. Goodness, can we have one open near me? Very hearty and not too spicy. The broth is rich with a refreshing relish tang. My BF and I shared a bowl because there was no way I would've finished it on my own with everything else we ordered. Chicken Dumplings in Beef Soup - Seems to use the same broth as the Beef Noodle Soup. Not my personal favorite because the dumpling wrapper is a bit too thick, but it's a small miss considering how fond I already am of this place. Pan-Fried Pork Dumplings - How is this place making money? These things are massive and deliciously oily. There's a clean Maillard effect on the bottom that adds so much flavor. They also have an interesting fold--I've never seen dumplings shaped quite like this before. The pork flavor comes through strongly with the classic scallion combo. Steamed Bao Bun - Yaass, reliving my Chinese drama dreams. These weren't as sweet as the commercial ones, which I personally prefer. Still, I reckon this is how they tasted in those shows, so I'm stoked for the experience. Now, will I say this is the absolute best dumpling place in Houston? No--but there is something undeniably attractive about this place, and it is fundamentally delicious. It embodies one of the best versions of a classic mom-and-pop restaurant, serving homemade food that isn't perfect but reflects craftsmanship and care beyond the appeal of modern restaurants. My dumplings weren't wrapped with perfect precision, nor were they the pinnacle of healthy eating. They were just blatantly delicious--like when your mom cooks your favorite meal on a weekend night. That's why I would come back. This place represents the most authentic form of home and freedom in food. The downside of all the carbs I ate is that I had to volunteer at my local theatre afterward, and I was crashing haaaaaard while sending this place so much love.

I got their wagyu nigiri, which comes with two pieces, and their signature ramen. The signature ramen is well-balanced and is creamy. You can definitely tell that the noodles are hand-made. The noodles are curly and bouncy, and I really enjoy their texture. All the meats within the signature are tender and soft, melting in your mouth. The ramen here is a bit pricier than other locations, but I do believe the quality and freshness of the ramen really shows. The wagyu nigiri was good, but nothing special per se. The meat was quite thin and was a bit lackluster. The interior is quite small, which leads to some wait time. I recommend going earlier before they open to secure a spot and to avoid long wait times. Parking can also get crazy in the plaza during the weekends. Staff was quick and attentive. I definitely will be visiting more now that they are in Houston and look forward to trying their other ramen flavors!

When I arrived there was nobody dining in the restaurant, that was a bit worrying, but I figured it was a bit early for the dinner crowd and late for the lunch crowd. Food & Drink - 4.5* First up was the noodles, I enjoyed them, but I wouldn't say the hype I'd heard about from some others was there. They had nice flavor, but there just wasn't anything "special." 3.5* Then it was on to the crawfish, and my oh my. Superb, the flavor is delicious and unique. This more than made up for the noodles dish. The potato and corn was good too. Service - 5* Solid. When I first arrived the owner was quietly reading a newspaper and eating his own lunch. He paused to greet me and advised that I could sit anywhere. He provided water and adequate time to determine what I wanted to order. The food came out quickly and he checked in a few times to make sure everything was ok. As time went by, the crowd of folks showing up increased quite a bit and he still managed to check in on tables consistently. Pricing - 4* This is where it was odd. Always subjective but I found the noodles to be overpriced for not only the size but what I felt was a pretty simple dish. The crawfish on the other hand was priced very competitively and made up for the overpriced noodles. I provided pics of the menu for someone to make their own assessment but in general I thought many of the dishes were pricier than they probably should be. I know inflation is certainly killing many businesses and consumers but even these felt a bit off. Overall - 4.5* This is definitely going to be one of my go tos for crawfish when in the area. The flavor is fantastic, the pricing is good, the size of them were solid. There are a couple of other dishes I may try on the next visit. The restaurant is clean, the owner is very nice, and it's a nice low key space to just enjoy a good meal with friends or family.
