This is a true hole-in-the-wall treasure. This tiny place has some of the best dumplings in a region with plenty of dumpling choices. We tried the Shrimp with Juicy Pork Steam Dumplings, the Pork with Leeks dumplings, the chili spice mixed noodles, cucumber salad, and the scallion pancake. Everything was excellent. Full of flavor and originality. As we saw food coming to other tables, we knew what we were ordering next time.

Do not be deterred by the size of the place. There is nothing but great food coming from that tiny restaurant. (Do note that the restroom is at the spa next door, but that just added to the hole-in-the-wall charm of the place.)

Tried Luyu about 3 months ago. I have been coming back weekly since. Everything is good! I’m addicted to the smashed cucumber garlic salad and mixing it with the cold sesame noodles. Recommend the lamb dumplings as well. Also, shout out to Annie, she always takes our order and good care of us.

The dumplings here are fantastic. They have more variety of fillings than I have ever seen on a menu. There are only a few tables so you might need to get it to go if the tables are full. The people working there are all really nice and very efficient.

Pretty small and compact place. There were a few open seats, so I was seated right away. The server warned me that orders will take longer to fulfill because there are currently many orders in. I was not super hungry, so I was okay with waiting. Turned out my orders were ready within 10-15 minutes which didn't seem long at all. I ordered Pork With Bean Sauce Mixed Noodles along with Potstickers (Pork). The noodle was thick and chewy, which is what I prefer. It was also a bit irregular in thickness, which suggests it was handmade. The potstickers were crispy on the outside and juicy inside. Both dishes had good flavor but were saltier than I'm used to. The price is quite cheap for 2025 standards. I got away paying $20 including tip. To my surprise, they do take credit cards. The parking lot was almost full for Sunday lunch, but there were still a few spaces left when I parked.

I never write a review but this place is so tragically bad. The restaurant is dirty and the kitchen is very iffy. The worst part is the horribly
customer service, if you want a pleasant dinning experience avoid this restaurant at all cost.

A little bit of a language barrier but worth the extra energy. All items ordered were good or great. I will add this place to my rotation when in town.

Fuiyoh! This place is great! Eat here!! 1 lady doing everything. She's going to tell you what you can and can't have- listen to her! We were in town 5 days- I went there 3 times. I could eat there every day. Tried the pork and cabbage dumplings pan-fried (my favorite), beef and radish dumplings (can get any dumpling pan-fried), schezuan dumpling in red oil, juicy pork dumplings, chili mixed noodles, chicken sesame cold noodles, and egg fried rice. Everything was amazing. All the noodles are clearly handmade. Great chew, texture, filling, tasty- they're perfection! Saw an actual shoalin monk eating there, lots of non-english speaking asain clients. Loved EVERYTHING about it! Very homie. Reminded me of the Chinese food (Bud Wong's) that I grew up with and have been searching for ever since. And it's VERY reasonably priced!!So filling. The food here speaks to my soul. Highly recommend it. I cannot say enough good things! Can't wait to go back. It has to be THE BEST restaurant in that area!
Thank you wonderful dumpling lady! You made this Mexican/Jewish woman so happy!

Wide variety of different dumplings. You can order them steam, boil or pan fried. They will cook them the way you like. Waitress told us to tried their handmade spicy noodles. Handmade noodles are very Q. We also like the cucumbers. Very affordable place. She noticed it’s our first time here so she gave us complimentary egg pancake. Very good customer service. We saw about 7 people in the kitchen making food. Everything seems to be made fresh on site.

First and foremost the food is not the problem. Everything we’ve ever ordered here is great. The low quality in this location falls entirely on its operation. Let’s run down the list: only one hostess, waitress, and busser all in one. Priorities are mixed up on who needs help and in what order. It’s hilarious watching everyone stare at the one host seemingly begging for the check, a box, even a drink they keep ordering and never receive. Next, no restrooms, so there’s that. Also I hope you like being stared at deeply by locals because unless you’re anything but Asian, it’s gonna happen. So just be ready to wait awkwardly and watch other people get their food, finish it, and pay even though you got there a half hour before them.

My family and I often go here when we crave chinese food. The lady who often works there is super nice and polite. The food quality is amazing despite the busy crowds.
