Dumpling Hours offers a variety of tasty dishes, including the popular xiao long bao (XLB), fried chicken, and flavorful Dan Dan noodles. Customers enjoy the unique sesame paste flavor in the noodles and the perfectly crafted XLBs. The handmade boiled dumplings with shrimp, pork, and chives are a hit as well. The restaurant provides outdoor seating in Palo Alto, enhancing the dining experience, making it a great spot for delicious food and excellent service.
Customers have praised the juicy and flavorful XLBs, with soft but sturdy skins that don't break easily. The pan-fried bao, especially the juicy Pan-fried Pork Buns, have a nice crispy bottom and are filled with pork and soup, similar to xiao long bao but even better. The garlic string beans, however, have received mixed reviews, with some stating they tasted old. The Dan Dan noodles are creamy, and customers can add more chili oil or soy sauce to suit their preferences.
While the prices are on the higher side, the quality of the food and the dining experience make Dumpling Hours a popular destination for those seeking authentic and delicious Chinese cuisine. Overall, customers recommend trying the juicy Pan-fried Pork Buns and skipping the pancakes with red bean paste.
