Really enjoyed the food and service. We got three dishes to try. Dry fried green beans, Dan Dan Noodles, and fried pork and cabbage dumplings. The greens beans were excellent, plenty of flavor and a crispy bite. The noodles were also excellent and had a nice little punch of spice and creaminess from the sesame paste. The dumplings were excellent, juicy on the inside and a crisp bottom from the frying. The sauce that accompanies the dumplings is on the sweet side and pairs well. It's nice to have a Chinese restaurant with more authentic dishes, the staff were very inquisitive about feed back which I loved. Give this place a shot, it's great!

Please, please do not hesitate, and urgently get all up in this place. I love soup dumplings and they’re not super easy to find! They’re also not the best item to-go but I love how they prepped them. They’re individually placed on a little foil pan and it keeps the from tearing or getting messed up. Love it! Also have the spicy beef pan fried dumpling, the chicken fried rice, the mini buns, and steamed pork and chive dumplings. The spicy beef flavor is amazing and the pork soup dumplings are a 10/10 all star fav!! Honestly everything I’ve had has been incredible. Also love the dipping sauce they provide.

The Dumpling Zone is an absolute must-visit. You'll definitely want to keep coming back! I've tried dumplings from plenty of places, and these rank at the very top, especially the soup dumplings, which were bursting with incredible flavor. The pan-fried beef dumplings were equally impressive: juicy inside with a perfectly seared, crispy bottom. I also loved the cucumber salad. It was far from ordinary. Slightly sweet and tangy, with bold notes of garlic and red onion, and I appreciated that they used tender small cucumbers. Beyond the dumplings, we tried the fried rice, and it was the real deal: properly wok-fried and beautifully seasoned, not just steamed rice with sauce tossed on top. I'm thrilled to finally have a great dumpling spot right here in Cypress. It saves the drive to Bellaire or Houston. The owners are super friendly, and the food is fantastic. Highly recommend!

Arrived during lunch time and most of the tables were taken, maybe 4 open. Got my food to go, but everything looked clean and the employees were engaging. I would rate the overall experience a 4.6 out of 5. Got the beef pan fried dumplings and the sesame chicken. The beef fried dumplings were really flavorful. I read another review about the juices busting out, definitely the case. Can be a little messy, but overall really good and the flavors were great. The dipping sauce definitely adds a little more flavor. The sesame chicken wasn’t terrible, nothing spectacular. Just a bit dry due to breast meat, and just needs a bit of seasoning on the chicken itself. Would definitely come back to try other menu items.

Delicious handmade dumplings! Stopped in for lunch and ordered hot tea and the Three Delicacies dumplings in sour soup. The dumplings were fresh and flavorful as was the soup that it came in. I cannot wait to come back again soon! If you’re looking for fresh handmade dumplings definitely come here. The people working here are super nice and accommodating as well.

We’ve ordered here a couple of times now and it was great both times! The first time was a takeout order on Christmas Eve, and it was fresh, hot, delicious and securely packed. We chose to eat in a few days later (because, delicious) and tried a few other things. My teen loved the cucumber salad and pork soup dumplings. We tried a couple of types of pan fried dumplings (pork and spicy beef) and they were both tasty and well seasoned. I also had some spicy beef dumplings in sour soup, and the soup was really good (also appreciated by my teenager), not too sour and not super spicy. Service was prompt and friendly, and the restaurant is immaculately clean. Super excited to be able to get some authentic dumplings in Cypress without driving to Bellaire or Katy Asian Town. Highly recommend this new restaurant!

Dumplings were delicious Dan and noodles were good. I was hoping that they’d be more spicy and have a little bit more sauce in there took the food to go. I know that those dumplings typically taste best popping hot right out of the steamer right off of the pan, so wish we didn’t wait to eat as they got a little bit cool sometimes that has a tendency to get a little bit thick, but everybody in the family enjoyed the dumplings the fried rice, the stirfry noodles, mini buns would recommend plan on going back
