    Had tasty steamed veggie dumplings and a sesame pancake w/veg from North Dumpling last night. Enough for 3 people for under $20. It's always packed so the food is fresh every time I go.

  • I really like north dumpling’s hot and sour soup! Lots of pork, tofu, wood ear mushrooms and quite spicy!

  • Would like to add North Dumpling’s chive pancakes if eggs are ok! They’re not like flat scallion pancakes but are pockets stuffed with chives, eggs, and glass noodles and only $3 for 2.

    Something I love about North Dumpling is their veggie dumplings are so flavorful too! Sometimes veg dumplings can be bland but theirs seem like more or less equal parts cabbage and ginger and are so flavorful.

  • replying to u/lovinglyvif: Tasty Dumplings and Wu's wonton are faves. North Dumplings is the sleeper hit.

    North dumplings veg are especially good! it seems a lot of veggie dumplings end up with a mushy and bland filling but theirs are so gingery and have a nice filling texture form the cabbage!
