District Dumplings

Be ready to transform to a low key Tokyo style Japanese place. The place is definitely has authenticity oozing out of it. Plus, the service is very good. The owner is kind and accommodating. We are vegetarians, but they have plenty of dumpling options. The first bite we took of the squash dumpling, amazing blast of flavors in the mouth. Same with the Buddha. These two were my top favorites knock out of the park. The taro and kale are also good, I’m not a fan of taro so I was ok with it but husband did like them. We also ordered the vegetarian shumami which usually is never available in vegetarian. It was great to try it. Overall, a great place, decent prices and delicious food.

such a cute place with delicious soup dumplings, will come again

Amazing dumplings, went with the pork and lemongrass, bulgogi and duck. Made to order and friendly service, perfectly hot, steamy and savory, dunked in the soy sauce and chili oil combo yielding a delicious mouth bomb. Disregard the haters who gave low ratings, they don't know what to order or how to eat these delicious dumplings.

Purchased 4 varieties of dumplings for a group of us. While the dumplings were well filled and the wrappings tender, they really were all mediocre and lacked any punch, seasoning or intense flavors I would expect at a place that specializes in dumplings. Not awful, but fell way short of similar restaurants I have eaten at and ordered from. I've had dumplings and dim sum from a variety of cities in the US and Asia and I really can't recommend ordering from here. The sweet dipping sauce had more flavor than any of the fillings. Disappointed as I really enjoy dim sum and dumplings, either authentic/traditional flavored or creative options like those that were offered by Ping Pong in DC (before it closed).

Seriously so impressed with this place. You’ve got to try the shrimp dumpling special with the house sauce. The texture was sooo perfect. Also loved all the options for the pick 10 dumplings dish. The lemongrass chicken was our favorite but all were tasty. I loved all of the vegetarian options as well. I tried a few squash and cheese dumplings and loved the flavor combination. Would 100% recommend and come back.
