    Vegan dumplings
    Elyse M.

    This place is good. The food was tasty and they have labelled vegan options. The staff was friendly and the location had seating. The row of tables was in a narrow hall-like area and was a tiny bit cramped feeling but was manageable.

    Shanghai Soup Dumplings and HK Street-style Noodle Rolls (both very tasty!)

    Lovely little spot with very tasty dumplings! Exceptional service too -- so friendly and kind. I will not only be returning, I'm telling all my friends to try this place too.

    DELICIOUS CHICKEN SOUP DUMPLINGS! (New menu item!)

    I finally got to taste the brisket "taco" with scallion pancake "tortilla, and it iis SENSATIONAL!

    By far the best dumplings in town! I had originally found this place selling dumplings at the farmers market on the weekends, and recently learned they have an actual restaurant (yay)! To start, the woman working was extremely kind and hospitable and helped me pick out some frozen dumplings to take home with me after lunch. I also tried the $12.75 lunch special, which was a really great deal considering how expensive meals are in Austin at the moment. I got 4 of the chicken & shiitake dumplings and an order of the crispy pan fried noodles. It was plenty of food for lunch, and I even took some of the noodles home with me. If you're in the area it's definitely a great quaint place for a quick lunch that doesn't make you feel bad afterwards, in regard to both price and quality!

    Went here for lunch and really enjoyed the food and PRICE! That had a really great lunch special! I got the dumplings and scallion pancakes! My friend got the beef taco that came on the scallion pancake and absolutely no complaints! Parking: fine- it is located in a big shopping center so plenty of parking! *one thing to note: they make things fresh so there will be some wait time from when you order until when you get your food!

    This was Plan B and we lucked out finding these tasty dumplings! We were a little worried that there wouldn't be enough space to sit but timing is everything and we snagged the last table.

    A great casual spot for Chinese dishes! It reminds me of the communal restaurants in Hong Kong, with its small flavorful dishes and small tables. Prices are reasonable so you can get 2-3 dishes depending on your appetite and share with others. I went on a weekday evening and it wasn't busy. I ordered the soup dumplings, which were fine but nothing special, and the Taiwanese beef taco, which I enjoyed! Thought it was a fun concept with the scallion pancake and coupled with the beef and sauce, it was great. I also tried the fried rice which was super flavorful. Soy sauce, hoisin sauce, water, utensils, napkins, etc. are self serve. Seems like a great spot to order to-go as well.

    Stopped by on a rainy Sunday at around 11am for brunch. My husband and I were the only ones there, but the seats quickly filled up by 11:30am. I know Steamies from ACL and the Mueller's Farmers market, but wanted to try the brick and mortar! The shop is small with about 4-5 tables and a self serving cutlery and sauce station. Service is quick and very accommodating. We ordered a ton of items - 2 of each dumpling (they ran out of dumpling of the month), scallion pancakes, soup dumplings, and the taco! I really enjoyed the taco and the vegan dumplings. The regular and soup doublings were good, but not my favorite. The wrapper was thick in my opinion. Overall a decent spot to get your dumpling fill!

    THE BIG: Located in the Ranch 99 shopping center right next to Sazan Ramen. Tiny space but functional. Parking is in the lot however the lot gets filled quickly during peak lunch and dinner times. THE BLACK AND WHITE: The wife and I came here on a Sunday as it opened. No one was in and we ordered a couple of items that included the scallion pancakes, soup dumpling, scallion pancake taco, and a medley of dumplings. The scallion pancakes were great and the taco was a twist on that. Filled with barbacoa and then folded into the pancake. It was pretty good. The soup dumpling was alright, wrapper was a bit thick but the flavors were there. I wish there was the classic dipping sauce (ginger and vinegar) however they only had soy sauce when we went. THE FINAL BAMBOO: Overall, damage done was around $40 for everything. We did order alot of food and it was the perfect base for the rest of the day.

    Scallion pancakes, HK noodle rolls, mix and match dumplings

    Limited seating in this shotgun restaurant located in the shopping strip by 99 Ranch. Handmade dumplings and quick courteous service. Dropped in for a very fast lunch and had the following: Mix and match dumplings: * Chicken and Shitake - thumbs up really tasty * Pork and cabbage - solid solid fare * Special of the Month - braised beef - just ok for me - it was rich in flavor but the texture of the beef (i.e. actual pulled beef vs ground) and the richness of the beef was a bit much Crispy Scallion Pancakes - actually pan fried and not flash fried - thumbs up for being good and not overly oily - good with the red chili and soy sauce HK Street-style Rice Noodle Rolls - surprisingly liked this. The rice rolls were so soft and perfectly cooked. It had a simple savory sweet sesame sauce I think. Soup Dumplings - these were good. They came in little aluminum cups so the broth didn't run off if you poked a hole. I'd definitely come back through here!

    I do think Austin's food scene is lacking when it comes to Chinese food. Steamies Dumplings sells street food and I got the HK Street-style rice noodle rolls, Shanghai soup dumplings, and chili oil scallion pancakes. The space is small and the most of the tables only seat two people. It took a long time to order too (even though there was only one person in line) and we were not greeted. The food is very basic but it took a while to arrive (20 min). Scallion pancakes are too salty. Soup dumplings are okay, nothing special. I like the sauce on top of the HK rice noodles. Overall, the food was average. Don't come here expecting a filling meal, these are street food/small appetizers. Water and clean up is self-serve.

    Soup dumplings and Chinese sausage and rice
    Valerie T.

    From the farmers market to their own brick and mortar! They make some of the best dumplings (frozen and fresh). The soup dumplings are great! Took about 5 minutes for them to get my order out. The Chinese sausage and rice was so good as well. The shop is small, there's maybe 4-5 small tables but seems like the bulk of their business is selling the frozen dumplings versus indoor dining.

    Not fully allergy friendly place in few ways , vegan choice is one only I seen , yeast and wheat are not good so I can't really say I will be able to eat that but I did try the filling inside one , flavor was mellow and fully cooked veggies. Nice older and got some chili oil from her to Support and she talked about it how she made it and press into the jars and she had a smile as I checked out and got two bags of frozen potstickers one non-vegan. They make nice presents to others that are able to like them and I like them. I just think that if the outside dough was different, I think it would be more efficient for allergy friendly.

Firstly, I was impressed with the fact they had a FREE parking garage nearby since this is in the downtown area and next to Whole Foods. It took me a bit to find it as I'm directionally challenged, but I did and was just running a bit late. We really enjoyed the food and cocktails. I got the Singaporean noodles, a mezcal drink, and a sake. The serving size was big so I had plenty to take home. We shared many of the other dumplings and dim sum items. Everything was very good! The place wasn't too crowded so after we paid our bill we sat around for a while longer to chat and catch up. Usually someone would come by to see if we needed or wanted anything further, but no one did so we kept chatting and left. I'm happy to know of a central location with easy parking as a future place to meet people. I wish they had a happy hour because the bill for 3 of us was unexpectedly higher than usual.

    This is definitely one of my favorite places in Austin for Asian food and soup dumplings…read more Definitely need to make a reservation because this place is small and always packed. When you arrive, everybody is so nice you give them your name and they get you seated right away. I ordered a drink called a signature tingling Daisy and it was so good. I definitely could've had so many but I was driving so you gotta pace yourself. We started off with the soup dumplings, which are just phenomenal. It's a must when you go. Also, for appetizers, we got the spicy cucumbers which were divine and a hot and sour soup, which was perfectly balanced and not watery. We also got a beef fried rice and let me tell you that rice is so soft and delicious. You literally dream about it the next day. I also got the pecking duck which is delicious there the skin is nice and crispy and the meat on it taste so good. We also got the Kung pow shrimp with cashews, which was delicious and the pieces of shrimp were gigantic. We also got the green beans which is were delicious. I love ordering green beans when they're cooked just like the ones I posted in the photo. Then for dessert, we got the chocolate mousse which is that little dog cake. I know it's so cute and they made it a little hard to eat because you feel bad in a weird sense. It was delicious now I will say when cutting it and realizing the inside had a raspberry filling, made it a little more crazy cause it looked like blood, but it was still so good. This place is definitely an awesome staple and a must visit when you're in town or just always go and have food there whether it's date night or friends catching up or anything in general even on your own.

    I made a reservation for two on Resy and discovered when we got there that it was for the bar for…read moresome reason. This could have been my mistake but I don't remember any choice in the matter. The greeter wasn't very friendly and borderline surly when I asked for more details about how to not book the bar in the future. Didn't get any explanation but fortunately, we won't have to worry about that... The food was just awful. We ordered 3-4 types of dimsum (onion pancake, soup dumplings, chu shou, fried shu mae) and three entries (orange beef, eggplant and their take on ma pao tofu) for the best tasting experience. The curry sauce for the onion pancake was probably the most flavorful dish of the night sadly. The onion pancake was way way over fried-- hard as a rock. If that's their take on onion pancake... well, it's just wrong. The soup dumplings were passable but a bit doughie and the filling was full of a lot of noticeable coagulated fat -- not clear and broth-y, with light surface droplets of oil as all delicious broths. My wife enjoyed the chu shou -- I found the filling much too overcooked and tough -- difficult to eat with chop sticks. Like a tough, overcooked meatball. The fried shu Mae were just plain inedible. My wife and I each ate one and left the rest. The included sauce was basic and too heavy. And again, over fried. There was a huge delay between our apps and our mains, like 40 minutes or so. Various bar staff apologized. It wasn't a big deal, we were in a good conversation and they were super busy but our mains were not at all worth waiting for. Small portions. WAY over sauced. WAY too salty. WAY too sweet. No distinct flavors at all. The ma pao didn't seem to have any Szechuan pepper at all. How do you miss that ? The plating of the eggplant dish was really creative but I don't eat with my eyes and it came with no instruction -- my first bite was just flavorless steamed eggplant cube -- second was mixed with one note sauce. One of the better mains IMO but it was still gloopy and pretty gross. Wife did not enjoy it. The orange beef was essentially just six or seven cubes of tough, fatty beef covered in over-the-top bitter orange peel. We each had a cube and left the rest. Honestly, give me Panda Express any day over this abject failure of a restaurant. Austin needs more Chinese but if it's anything like this place, forget it. I'd rather spend a 4h round trip to Houston and go to even a mediocre Chinese restaurant than endure another meal at this place. What a waste of $165. Edit: I wish I was making this up but I literally had to pull over to throw up on the side of the road on the way home. The food did not sit well with me. I have no underlying health conditions, am not on any medicine that would have this as a side effect and only shared one beer with my wife. It was just a very, very, disappointing and gross meal.

Great food, exceptional hospitality, and an all-around great experience. Definitely a spot I'd come back to.

    This might be the best dim sum in Austin now…read more I actually had never eaten at Shanghai having grown up in Austin. I didn't have their food until around COVID when we got dim sum to go a few times. I remember at that time thinking it was pretty unremarkable, and also quite expensive for dim sum. Fast forward to this year. I'm not sure if they have new ownership or new cooks, but the difference is night and day. I've been a couple of times now for dine-in in dim sum and each time was awesome. You can order off the menu or by QR code. They definitely focus on the classics but they're all executed really well. Standouts for me were the pan fried turnip cake, full of turnip and super sweet, the shrimp and leek pan fried dumplings, shrimp stuffed eggplant, and chili wonton. What makes them unique to me is that the food is all cooked to order and comes out hot and fresh. The fried items are crispy and hot and everything else you can tell just came straight from the kitchen. This avoids the one issue with carts which is that the food has been cooked who knows when and has just been sitting in a steam cart for an unknown amount of time. Also since you order off the menu, you can get exactly what you want instead of having to wait for a cart to come by. The service is always friendly and I've never had to wait to be seated, even on a weekend. If you haven't come here in awhile or written it off in the past, I'd encourage you to come and try it again. Right now it's a hidden gem but if more people realize how much better it is now, it might not be for long. Also bonus points for being a dim sum place that's not super far north like New Fortune 2 or Golden Palace.
