Dumpling Empire is a small, hidden-away restaurant in South San Francisco that offers great food and service. This restaurant has a broad selection of food items, including many vegetarian options, and is accommodating to dietary restrictions. The pork and dill dumplings are a popular choice, along with the Shanghai soup dumpling, while the sweet and sour soup remains a tasty side. The restaurant also features unpretentious noodle dishes, soups, Chinese pancakes, and more. While the pan-fried dumplings can sometimes be overcooked and greasy, the flavors are generally well-regarded. The servers are friendly and patient, always ready to answer questions, making the service very good overall. The use of plastic forks and paper plates, however, takes away from the dining experience. Dumpling Empire is known for its affordability, with most dishes priced under $10. The meal often ends with a complimentary sweet treat. If in the neighborhood, this underrated spot is worth a visit.
