Dumpling Hours-Brentwood

"Ordered a boiled chicken with shiitake mushroom dumpling. The skin was perfect, not too thin or thick, and perfectly flavored. Not too much shiitake mushroom though. Also the steamed vegetable buns were delicious and beautifully prepared."

"I was craving dumplings REALLY BAD tonight so you know the first thing I did was search up dumpling places on Google Maps…. and lo and behold there was a Dumpling Hours that I’ve been wanting to try for a while now! I went at around 6:45pm — with plenty of seats available. Service was fairly quick as we just chose what we wanted to eat through our phones — with the help of a physical menu and the pictures on the digital menu (which by the way were SUPER helpful and actually looked like what was expected). We got the egg drop soup with seaweed, the jellyfish salad with green onion oil, the ginger and scallion noodle (蔥油拌麵), pork shrimp and chive dumplings, and chicken xiao long bao (雞肉小籠包) — and honestly ALL of them hit the spot. All the portions were bigger than what I expected — and I loved how you could see them make your dumplings RIGHT in front of you too! So you know it’s fresh. Overall, service was swift and didn’t feel rushed — and I’d definitely come back here again to try other dishes! Quite authentic coming from someone who identifies as Chinese (and is a hardcore foodie LOL)"

"Read a lot of good reviews on this place. Finally stopped in to give it a try. Ordered 4 different dishes to take home. Unfortunately my wife and I both got sick about 2 hours after eating it. It was the only thing I've eaten all day. Hopefully it was an isolated incident."

"It was delicious! The service was great and we ordered so much we got a free side of the fried chicken (the serving size of the chicken was a lot more than shown in the picture, we just dug in because it smelled so good and I forgot to take a picture!)"

"I loved the Jellyfish and green onion salad and the Brussel Sprouts in Black Truffle oil! I would definitely go back just for these. My husband and mom loved the chicken wings. Different variety of Shanghai style dumplings - delicious!"
