Dumpling Hour Reviews
Food was good but the greatest part of my experience was the hostess, Mariana Galvan. I walked in and was immediately greeted by the most amazing ball of sunshine. She suggested the chicken dumplings. I’m so glad I listened to her. She’s amazing 🤩

Dumpling Hour is a modern restaurant that offers a variety of Asian-inspired dishes, with a focus on dumplings. The atmosphere is inviting, with nice decor and plenty of space, making it a great place to enjoy a meal. The restaurant features a unique ordering system similar to a sushi restaurant, where guests write down their choices on a slip of paper rather than ordering through a server. This system allows for sharing several dishes, which is recommended given the extensive menu.
Guests have praised the high quality of the food, especially the pork soup dumplings, which are considered a must-have. Other favorites include the beef skewers, which are tender, flavorful, and slightly spicy, and the string beans and eggplant with minced pork, which received perfect scores for their delicious flavor. The deep-fried Wontons are spicy and loved by those who enjoy a bit of heat, while the Chow Mein was also enjoyed for its reasonable price and good taste. Some dishes, like the pan-fried and steamed dumplings, were described as tender and juicy but slightly lacking in flavor depth, though the overall flavor of the offerings was appreciated.
Service quality received mixed reviews; the staff was friendly and helpful, especially when explaining dishes. However, initial seating arrangements and handling of bar seating were considered somewhat poorly managed. Despite this, most guests found the wait times reasonable and the service generally good once seated.
Overall, Dumpling Hour is highly recommended for its authentic, flavorful Asian food, modern decor, and unique dining experience, making it a welcome addition to Baton Rouge’s dining scene.
