Dumpling Story - Fillmore

Came here on a Saturday night for dinner. It was crowded and we didn’t have a reservation, but only waited about 15 minutes. This was my first time having dumplings properly and I went all in. We got the chicken xia long bao, shiitake and chicken dumplings, chicken dumplings, shrimp egg and chive dumplings, garlic and chive noodles, and green beans. The chicken xia long bao was amazing.

The shiitake and chicken dumplings were not the ones to get. The garlic and chive noodles were great. Oily and tasty exactly how I’d want them. The green beans were surprisingly good too. Oily, garlicky, and packed wi

I was pleasantly surprised by this spot! We ordered the noodles and dumplings, and everything was delicious. We spent about $100 for 3 people (no drinks), which felt fair for the quality.

Excellent Chinese dumpling and other vegetarian dishes prepared in the traditional way and were delicious in taste and flavor. Lots of vegetarian options and the portions are good and the prices are very reasonable. However, the place is very right and can hear all the conversations from the next table. All of our dishes came at once and thus we were not able to enjoy several of them.
