We even had extras which I was cheerful about in light of the fact that I had the option to eat them once more. The sack the pack to go have all that inside to eat in the vehicle by the seashore simply as we did. They treat all that well because of COVID-19 and I am unquestionably returning to this spot. In addition to the fact that everything is yummy, everything followed useful for COVID-19 and the staff is brilliant the costs are similarly as acceptable, not costly by any

Love this dumpling place for many years, but the quality of food is getting worse and worse! Don't know why maybe they change the owner. At least don't use blackened and expired vegetables.

Love this place! Not surprised it got rated Best Chinese in the city. Quite an award to receive in San Francisco. Now, this place is all about the food, not the atmosphere. It's a practical, no-nonsense kitchen set up with plastic tables near the door where you pick up your order. Great price -- about $9 plus tip for a dozen delicious, perfect dumplings. I've learned that sometimes you don't get an answer when you call the number, but just try again later and someone should pick up.

These are our favorite dumplings and everything we ordered for takeout and frozen was really tasty. Mutton skewers, scallion pancake, bok choy, soup dumplings. Every time we are in the area, we stop by to stock up on frozen dumplings. They also saved us by making the scallion pancake right away for our very hungry four year old while we waited for the rest of the order.

Tried this spot last night for the first time last night for my b-day dinner and it did not disappoint!!! The service was great! But because of COVID our service was calling in our order and picking it up! The gentleman who helped me on the phone and with our pick up was nice and helpful! Here's what I will for sure order again! Farmer's cucumber, Shanghai dumplings, garlic string beans, beef chow mein, green chive pancake, potstickers, and pork and napa dumplings. All of these dishes had great flavor and pretty much what you would expect flavor wise. The green chive pancake was a little thicker than what I'm used to but it was still delish! Their dumplings were mouth watering!!! A few dishes i think I will skip next time. The marinated beef pancake, chicken wings, and spring rolls. I liked the beef pancake but it was way too much. It was like a Chinese version of a piroshki. It was fried and really heavy but the flavor was good. The chicken wings were a little too sweet and it would have been better if they used honey to sweeten the wings instead as opposed to what they use now. Lastly the spring rolls were different tasting due to the mean that is used to make it. My family just didn't like the taste.

Decided to get their dumplings because my favorite dumpling kitchen was closed and was pleasantly surprised. Upon arriving we saw workers making the dumplings by hand through the window so knew we were in for a treat. I got the Shanghai soup dumplings and the Shanghai pan fried soup dumplings. Both were very tasty and a very good price for the quality. Also got the XO chow mein which I enjoyed as well. Would recommend coming here for good dumplings and Chinese food for a great deal.

This place has saved us multiple times during the pandemic, when it's 9 PM and everywhere else is closed, and we want something tasty and close to home so that the food is still hot when we drive back. (Dumpling Kitchen is close-by, too, but usually it is closed earlier, and the wait time is way too long. The wait for Kingdom of Dumpling is short -- usually only 10 min for food!) I've gotten their pork and Napa cabbage dumplings, and their pork and chive dumplings. There are 12 dumplings per box. I LOVE their spicy hot sauce, which I basically just put on all the dumplings. My only complaint is that the dumplings are a bit on the smaller side, so I can eat 24 instead of 12. Otherwise, the dumplings are pretty solid! Definitely a good choice if you want something fast and tasty. :)

My favorite neighborhood place to pick up dumplings (the only place I go for dumplings actually). Whenever my family goes to hang out with my mother in law, it is a must to to pick up some dumplings!

The guy wearing glasses is so mean and disrespectful. When I went to order the food, he knew I was waiting for him, but he pretended he didn't see me. I waited there for almost 10 minutes when he finally turned around and asked rudely what I wanted. I told him my order and he asked me for my name. I told him my name but he asked again as if he didn't hear me. Then, he very rudely asked for my order again. Then, he went back to the kitchen and just left me at outside. He didn't even try to listen to my order, so I gave it up. His attitude was terrible and I won't be coming to this restaurant anymore.

This is my dumpling spot in San Francisco. Recently I took my friends here and we ate about $55 worth of different types of dumplings here. The soup dumplings are a bit small but flavorful, I think we liked the pan fried soup dumplings the best but be careful! They are little soup bombs! I also loved the scallion and shrimp and the chicken and corn dumplings as well. Having dumplings here as takeout in the car was definitely not an easy feat but we made it happen. Also remember that this place is cash only so make sure to bring the appropriate tender!

Eaten here a few times before and loved it. Ordered takeout recently and thought I should leave my praises. Chicken chow mein, soup dumpling and onion pancake WOW! Party of one baby. Good prices too.

Im vegetarian and my partner and I ordered veggie potstickers, veggie dumplings, shrimp dumplings and Shanghai dumplings. What we got was some sort of meat potstickers. And the veggie dumplings had some veggie dumplings and meat dumplings thrown in there. I regret giving them a tip at all. What’s more is that I didn’t even notice there was meat at first because they all tasted bland. I only noticed because a piece of meat touched my tongue and I noticed the texture. Fast service but what’s the point if they get the order wrong.

Our favorite soup dumplings in the world. Better than din tai fung. Cilantro bean noodles are bomb, and the kids love the chicken corn dumpies. Pork shrimp chive. Green beans yum.

I came in on a Monday evening about 30 minutes before closing. The service wasn't anything special, it was very simple and nothing more. The food is definitely quantity over quality. It was very basic, but got the job done. Im extremely full, but didn't break the bank. Food is a 6-7/10 at best. Value is like a 8/10

The food is amazing in every way. Their flavors are put together very well. We even had leftovers which I was very happy about because I was able to eat them again. The staff was very friendly very kind. The bag the pack to go has everything inside to eat in the car by the beach just like we did. They treat everything well due to COVID-19 and I am definitely going back to this place. Not only is everything yummy everything followed good for COVID-19 and the staff being wonderful the prices are just as good not expensive at all, Very reasonable.
