Joyee's Dumpling House-Torrey Highlands

Wonderful Chinese dumpling restaurant. Nice Chinese restaurant with a bit of everything: dumplings, noodles, rice dishes, etc... All the dishes are delicious. While the restaurant makes tasty dumplings, I am partial to their Fried Rice Noodle with Beef dish. Their pork buns are good, and they have boba! Nice restaurant that serves homemade tasting food.

Joyee Dumpling House offers a versatile menu with lunch and dinner options on weekdays, and special breakfast items on weekends. Located in a cozy plaza, it has both indoor and outdoor seating, providing a relaxed and enjoyable dining experience. It's quite popular—I had to wait about 15 minutes for my pick-up order, which speaks to its demand! One of the highlights is the Jian Bing, a traditional Chinese pancake. You can customize the spice level to your preference and choose from various add-ons like lettuce, pork sausage, and marinated beef. It’s a perfect blend of flavors and textures. The Henan Fried Buns are another favorite—soft, doughy buns filled with pork, offering a satisfying bite with crispy base. Pair them with soy sauce and vinegar for an extra kick. I can't wait to return and try their lunch and dinner options next time!

Food are all frozen food and they may just steam them and serve customers, these food you can easily get in any Asian market. I don’t usually stay in SD and compare to any restaurant in LA, I’m surprised that this restaurant still no been shut down lol. Bun are so melted and Chinese Donut may refried by air fryer. Soy milk has some other kind of weird taste in it, even worse than the soy milk sell in market.

We arrived about 7:20PM on a Tuesday night. Once walked in, the waiter informed us that the restaurant would close at 8PM and order first before the kitchen closes. Appreciate the heads up. We got an order of each: eggplant with Szechuan sauce, XLB, walnut shrimp and a bowl of rice. The food was delivered to table pipping hot. Walnut and shrimp were fried crunchy. Eggplant was seasoned and cooked well with spicy sauce. Portion was good. Interior of restaurant is clean with cute decoration. It is good that there is a Chinese restaurant nearby. When we crave for Chinese food, we need not to go to convoy anymore.

Xlb and the dumpling are perfection. Fried pork intestines had good flavor. I expected to be crispy, but it was stirred fried. It wasn't the places fault for my assumptions. ;)
