One One Dumpling in San Gabriel is definitely a hidden gem in the SGV. This small and unassuming restaurant may be easy to miss, but its delicious food is worth the effort to seek it out. As mentioned in other reviews, the hours can be a bit tricky to navigate, so make sure to plan ahead before you go.The menu is simple, with only two categories: dumplings and noodle soup. But don't let the simplicity fool you - the quality of the food is outstanding. The chive and pork dumplings are a standout when fried, with the perfect combination of flavors and textures. For those who prefer boiled dumplings, the cabbage and pork is a great option. The chili oil that comes with the dumplings is tasty, though some may prefer it to have a bit more umami flavor.If you're in the mood for something warm and comforting, the noodle soups are also a great option. The beef tendon soup is a popular choice, with a simple and clean broth that complements the tender and flavorful beef tendon.The atmosphere of the restaurant is cozy and intimate, with only about 20 seats available. It definitely has a mom-and-pop shop feel, which adds to the charm. Service is friendly and efficient, and the prices are very reasonable - though you'll need to have cash. Just make sure to check the hours and plan accordingly, as it's definitely worth the effort to try.

Still the best spot in SGV for noodle soup and dumplings. They survived COVID and they're still going strong. Hours are dialed back a bit but the quality is still top notch.

4.5 overall is my score. The challenge with getting dumplings to go is they may taste even better when they're super fresh and you're sitting inside the restaurant. But we got four orders and combos and the soups were excellent but the dumplings were even better! I was surprised that the steamed ones were super juicy yet the fried ones were equally as juicy and had a great texture. Would definitely visit again!

Probably the best pan fried dumplings I've had in LA. The steamed dumplings were just normal

Best best pork fried dumplings! The mushroom noodles are delicious and the broth that comes with it taste like mom's nutritious home broth. Love this place, but it can get super crowded. If you get here within 30 mins of it opening, almost never a wait.
My friend who loves dumplings wanted to try this restaurant after dining at Hui You Xiang, which is next-door (both are in the same strip mall). The dumplings are good, but they are wrapped in the thicker noodle than most dumpling houses. We tried 4 different dumplings--3 steamed and one fried, and the beef noodle soup. The steamed dumplings were good, the pan fried was just OK. The beef noodle soup was excellent. The four of us all felt that Hui You Xiang makes better dumplings, and they cost less. NOTE: One One is cash only.

It's not for everybody, but the food here is simple and delicious. If you like uncomplicated foods, noodle dishes, and/or dumplings, I recommend this place very highly.

My favorite pork soup dumplings!

Nice freshly cooked dumplings and noodles. On the bready and greasy side, i.e not competing with the delicate XLB at Din Tai Fung, but also not as pricey. Casual. Note the day it's closed
