Ordered fried dumplings but gave me dumplings that aren't fully cooked and not even fried.

I’ve come here many times—it’s one of my favorite restaurants. The beef noodle soup is my go-to, but honestly, it’s hard to pick a favorite because everything is delicious.
Highly recommend the dumplings—they’re handmade, and you can even buy them frozen at a great price. The server reminds me of my aunties, and the food tastes like grandma made it. It’s like a cozy Sunday at mom’s, and she just brought out the menudo.
I also love that the music stays true to the culture. They play Mandarin songs, not some watered-down English playlist. It makes the whole experience feel authentic—like I’ve been invited into someone’s home. I’m always happy here. 🥰

Chill quiet hole in the wall spot with amazing dumplings! The beef roll and stuffed pork pancakes are exceptional, but everything on the menu is good. Love this place!

You can find some traditional and tasty Chinese food here. Shanghai Wonton Soup is so tasty and special with the handmade wonton. The bonus is that they do not put MSG so you can drink the soup 😃 Don’t expect any good service because the owner Grandma takes care of everything so they are shorthanded. I love this place but hope that they can improve the cleanliness.

My family comes here all the time to buy their frozen dumplings. I had never sat down and dined in before but wow! The lady who runs the shop is a sweet woman who makes everything from scratch. Food does take more time that average to arrive so please enjoy your company while you wait as the two person crew in the kitchen handmakes each dish to order.
I ordered the beef noodle soup and the noodles were handmade to order. The beef noodle soup was by far the best ive ever had. I also ordered the beef roll pancakes, sesame onion pancakes, and red bean filled pancakes. They were all so fresh and tasty. I also ordered drinks but that may be an acquired taste.
Overall, such a comfortable experience. It's like receiving grandma's cooking. Such a homey vibe.
Vegetarian options: There are meatless options like the scallion sesame pancake and the red bean filled pancake.

OMG! I remind my GRANDMOTHER.
My eyes were just a little wet because of dumplings and soup.
Vegetarian options: They have great vegan food.
Kid-friendliness: pretty spaces in the restaurant.
Wheelchair accessibility: Very smooth front door and pretty good spaces.
Incredible food, everything I ate was delicious. We ordered juicy pork dumplings, Dan Dan noodles, spicy wonton, pan fried buns. Shoutout to the epic freezer full of dumplings to go. This place is a gem.

2/18/24: 4.5/5Probably the best handmade dumplings and noodles I’ve had so far in LA and as good as most of the good local shops I’ve been to in China and Asia. Dumplings are hand made and kept in cold storage until cooked to order. Noodles are batched for dough and then rolled and hand cut fresh to order. The dumpling skins and wide noodles have the perfect Q bouncy chew texture. The dumplings can be either boiled, pan fried, or steamed. The shop doesn’t use MSG, which isn’t really a problem, but does mean their food is well balanced and just salty and savory enough. Their beef noodle soup is red braised and may appear lighter in color, but still packs a beefy flavor w/ perfectly cooked tender beef. Their in house sauces like spicy chili oil for wontons and hoisin sauce for beef roll are some of the best I’ve had and also well balanced. Definitely get the sesame pockets that have a nice thin crunchy shell. The pan fried buns are fluffy pillowy w/ a nice thin crispy bottom. The green onion pancake is good although just needed some salt. Think Noodle St still has the best beef roll pancake but You’s is pretty great still. And if you want a drink, try the fresh taro milk smoothie. The owner was super nice to talk to and service was great. You can order from the menu or they have a digital POS machine w/ Chinese+English and pictures.

You kitchen was an interesting experience. You walk in and sit down and order your food through an iPad. Our food took longer than expected but that’s OK. It’s only a few people working there. The sesame pizza was excellent, the dinner star! The beef pocket and cilantro fish dumplings were delicious. I would skip the veggie dumplings, they were very bland. The veggie fried rice is nothing to write home aboutThey also sell their dumplings frozen so you can buy them and store them in your freezer.I don’t know if I would go out of my way to go there but I’m happy I tried it. It’s worth trying.

Came here with my family randomly because of original plans changed, and had to try some of the items on their menu.Our server who greeted us was very cheerful and inviting.We ordered their shrimp fried rice, wonton noodle soup, spicy wonton, Xio long bao, and pork with shrimp dumplings.Everything was fresh and handmade. As a dumpling and wonton junkie, You Kitchen serves one of the best dumplings and wontons we've had in the many Chinese restaurants we've been.Their wonton noodles soup came with a bone broth that was very savory, fresh soft noodles that had just the right texture (not over cooked and not under cooked) more of a dumpling rather than wonton, yet still a delicious filling, baby bok choi, and green onions.Their spicy wonton were the best I've ever had, with a savory vinegar and spicy chili oil which they make themselves. Ended up eating the entire serving!Fried shrimp fried rice was simple yet very delicious, Xia long bao, and pork shrimp dumplings were delicious when dipped in the vinegar, ginger, and chili oil that was on the table.Everything was delicious!They even have dumplings pre made so you can buy them buy the bags to take home.The one thing they could use was a little love in some cleaning in the joint. (Minor detailing) I would give them a five star, however that was my only concern.With the service being over the top and the food being completely amazing, I'll give them a 4 1/2 star rating.We will definitely be back for those spicy wontons and give some of their other items on the menu a try.Well done 'You Kitchen'! ? ?
