Bo Hai Dumpling Town

7.5/10Chinese

AI-generated summary

They only sell frozen, no dine in at all. Get the and the , folded in house by a room of ladies working at tables. People disagree on price, some call it the most bang for your buck at around $23 for 50 pieces, others say it costs more than nearby shops. The skins are on the thin side, so if you pan fry your you may want thicker ones elsewhere.

  • replying to u/Remarkable-World-234: Bo Hai, looked on yelp and seems no recent reviews. Looks like they are under the radar but your description makes me want to check it out.

    I thought their wontons were really good. They were out of soup dumplings the last time I was there. Their dumplings were fine but I like to pan fry my dumplings so I prefer the thicker skin ones from Kai Feng Fu Dumpling House over Bo Hai's.

  • I want to specifically highlight [Bo Hai Dumpling Town](https://www.yelp.com/biz/bo-hai-dumpling-town-new-york) because I think they're a great spot in LES. They have a pretty good variety of home made dumplings for sale and they have stuff like wontons and soup dumplings as well.

  • replying to u/crazeman: That Witch Ales You. I recommended them a lot in the past year on this sub. I first went in the spring this year on a Friday? I felt kinda bad because I think I was there for a few hours with a friend and only saw like 5 people there the entire time. They definitely deserve more attention for how unique they are. They're a "nano brewery" and claim to brew everything on site. I love that it gives off the local, family owned vibes. Small store front but they have a backyard where you can hang out and enjoy your drinks. I went to Forma Pasta near Atlantic recently and it gives off similar backyard vibes. It feels like I'm drinking at the backyard of a friend's house. They're in a awkward location in Two Bridge. Like kinda close to Chinatown but it's a bit of a walk. Kinda close to South Street Seaport but also a bit of a walk.

    Bo Hai Dumpling Town for frozen dumplings, wontons, soup dumplings to take home.

    Seconding Bo Hai. I get the soup dumplings from them and since I started buying from Bo Hai, I don’t go anywhere else.

    I thought their frozen wontons are also pretty good.
