The food is just meh. Pad Thai - how can one make it so tasteless? Basically pasta. Dumplings are OK. I think this place should remove dishes that they are not good at.

This is my first time writing a review for a restaurant. Disclaimer: I’ve only ordered takeouts so I cannot comment on the service. But the food here is ABSOLUTELY AMAZING. Like, seriously just delicious. The dumplings were SO GOOD, and I ordered salt&pepper squid the other day and it was PERFECT. Very tasty. I’m gonna order more for them. The only complaint I have is the ridiculously long food prep time.. Other than that I would order from it every single day.

Tried the beef fried noodles. Flavor was good and the portion was decent. Would order again.

The worst Chinese food I’ve ever eaten. Nothing has flavor. It is so bland and oily. Mongolian beef should be called Mongolian onions and pepper because it had hardly any beef and no taste. Chicken lo mein zero taste. Crab Rangoon zero crab or imitation for that matter. Pork dumplings were terrible. Spent over 100 dollars for food that went in the trash. Save your self the money and taste buds and order somewhere else.

I ordered delivery from Grubhub on Christmas—from what was supposed to be ‘Asia Gourmet’ so I thought I was getting it from a well rated place in Malden instead of the badly rated Dumpling Kitchen in Somerville. Hands down, all the food was disgusting—general Tsaos—tasted like it was tossed in bbq sauce-gross. Pork fried rice didn’t have pork, it had chicken and it was not fried rice. Salt and pepper calamari was soggy and tasteless. Pu Pu platter was a mix of cruddy fried things that tasted all the same (no flavor other than fried) and some nasty spare ribs—fatty with no seasoning. I spent $110 all in on food, delivery and tip and have never felt more hosed. Hopefully we don’t wake up with food poisoning.

I ordered from here since DoorDash had it rated at 4.4 stars. Our order showed up incorrectly and the food was very bland.

Solid cheap Chinese food takeout.
Dumplings 9/10- insanely good and I’m super picky. Dripping sauce was really good too.
LoMein 6/10- it was fine, could have used a little more flavor or sauce on it
Crab Rangoon 3/10 over fried and not doughy enough. Was more cream cheese than crab
Couldn’t add notes for extra duck sauce with my takeout order. But they did add a side of duck sauce and dumpling sauce with order.

Ordering from here doesn't require a long wait, so I like the place. The food is delicious and still warm.
