The Dumpling Cove 1530 East 222nd Street, The Bronx, NY 10469

"Food is delicious but portions are small (mainly rice) and I would say expensive as well. So it doesn’t really pan out especially when compared to similar restaurants in area. However they do offer entertainment in the evening hours so that’s fun. I’m not sure if they still have it but previously had karaoke. The crowd is always fun with live bands."

"Looks like a nice neat restaurant… not too sure about the attitude of the workers here though… They serve mainly Jamaican dishes. I would think the food is a little bit pricey… I would recommend you try it out for yourself!"

"That moment when you realize that eating out isn't worth it. There were about 5 girls congregated in chitchat at the register when I walked in, the place was empty. No hello/are you ready to order/give me a minute, nothing, 3-5 min pass. They walk away into the kitchen, still no one said nothing. Ok. Finally another young lady walks over from the dining area says hello and asked if anyone helped me, I said no. Now, she wasn't even suppose to be at the register and noticed how all those girls were there and did nothing. To top if off, I ordered 3 festival, 3 dumplings, and 3 piece of whiting. My bill was over $16 for a plate that had next to nothing on it and the pieces of whiting were the size of 2 kids size pinky fingers. I won't be going back. I miss the people who use to own this spot. Maybe I could have dealt with the price if the service wasn't so bad. Actually no, I was ripped off. There was next to no meat on that fish."

"I’ve been coming to the cove since 2017. Still yummy as always. I’m happy to see the new steam tables in the front to make service more efficient. If I had to knit pick I’d say to keep the outside tables clean. They were all soiled, I had to clean one my self so I could sit down and have my breakfast."

"This place is quiet a treat! If you are craving for great tasting Jamaican cuisine, this place will please your palate. I tried a few of their dishes and I must say that their friend dumpling is a little bit dry. The salted fish with pickled onions and peppers was great! The curried goat meat was excellent. I also like the decor of this place. It’s spacious and the servers are very polite. I would go back to this place again! Happy eating ♥️."
