Crystal Dumplings

If you’re in the mood for some legit dumplings at a great price, Crystal Dumpling delivers. You order at the counter and wait for your food, which is super chill once you figure out how the setup works, it’s a bit confusing when you first walk in. The food? Solid. Authentic flavors that hit the spot. Their milk tea and iced tea are great, too. That said, everything comes in plastic to-go containers, which feels a little excessive. I get it, it’s convenient, but I’d love to see the owners consider more sustainable options. Now, about the chili oil. I ordered the wontons chili oil, and they were good, but the portion of chili oil was tiny. Like, enough for one or two dips, and it’s gone. When I asked for more, I had to pay extra. I don’t mind paying, but c’mon, it’s wontons in chili oil, make it generous! On the upside, the staff is friendly, so no complaints there.

If you’re in the mood for some quick and casual dimsum, this place satisfies the cravings. We ordered the pork & shrimp shu mai, shrimp rice rolls, bbq pork buns, and spicy wontons which were all decent. The HK lemon ice tea was good too!

The BBQ is so good. It's not dry but juicy. I ate there and bought some home and microwave. It's not as fresh as eating there but delicious.

Cheap dumpling with cheap quality. Stopped by this morning at 11. Firstly, store has a cool decoration with a Chinese theme. They design the store as a togo place, you order and serve by yourself. We ordered 4 items, and nothing looks like photos :) The shrimp scallop fell off when we touched it. Rice rolls were thick and dry. Bean curd rolls were ok but not tasty. Only thing I can eat is the tripes. Last words, the store was hot and no conditioner when we visited. They really steamed me like a dumpling :)

Ordered multiple items and they were all amazing! Custard buns are super yummy and Bbq pork buns nice and filling 😋😋
