I’d been seeing rainbow soup dumplings and wanted to try them so decided to order from Dumpling District. They look slightly larger in photos than they are in real life. There are 6 dumplings - pork, Mala (spicy pork), chicken, shrimp & zucchini, crab & pork & lastly a truffle with pork.
They were lukewarm. I tasted the shrimp, which was the green dumpling. It was my favorite out of all of the dumplings. It was a nice flavor. Next I tried the pork, which was good; then the chicken, which tasted okay. Next, I tried the crab & pork, which was a good tasting combo and then the spicy pork, which was the reddish color dumpling. Lastly, I tried the truffle pork, black dumpling. I was most looking forward to this as I love truffle, but this one was my least favorite. While it looked cool, the flavor wasn’t there.
Overall, I like the idea of pairing the dumplings together so that one can try various flavors at once. Aesthetically it looks like such a fun dish because it’s so colorful.
Now, I also ordered scallion pancake with beef. Normally, I wouldn’t order beef, but I’m oh so glad I did. It was delicious!! The scallion pancake w/ beef tasted flakey, flavorful and hearty. The beef was well seasoned and perfectly paired with the scallion pancake. Although it was a little oily, I would order the scallion pancake again and pair it with an Asian-inspired omelet made at home, it was that good.
I’m looking forward to dining in at Dumpling District. I’m happy to see that there are several throughout the DMV-area.
The soup dumplings are pretty good, but other dishes are just OK.

Ordered delivery from here. Dumplings were still piping hot when they arrived, so that was nice. Flavors were not great, imo -- definitely better options around here. Bottom line: wouldn't get again.

Fried buns and pork chop rice are delicious? The beef fried dumplings are good and delicious but the portion is not large (6 pieces).
Pork bun,pork chop rice taste good. The beef pot sticker tastes good, but only 6 pieces per set.
Cerdo pan,y cerdo frido con arroz son delisiosos. El carne dumplings bueno también, pero solo hay seis piezas.

First time customer. Got delivery thru DoorDash. The food was excellent. The food containers were perfect. The food arrived good. I will definitely buy again. And will recommend.
Great place tucked in next to H-Mart. It shares space with Kung Fu Tea. They haven't updated the sign out front yet so it's easy to miss. Service was very friendly and accommodating. We ordered the pork & shrimp shumai, beef pan fried buns, chicken fried buns and the rainbow soup dumplings. Everything came out quickly and at a perfect temperature and really flavorful. It was hard to pick a favorite dish but the beef bun was towards the top for me. It was well balanced between bread and filling, juicy with a nice peppery flavor. The red soup dumpling was also really good and had a bit of spiciness. Highly recommend checking them out.

The dumplings are amazing. Over the past few weeks we have purchased a variety of different types of dumplings, and we have been delighted every time. My friend really enjoyed the black truffle soup dumplings, and would order them again. I really enjoyed the wontons in peanut chilli sauce and plan to get them every time we order. The beef potstickers were full of flavor. The portions are great, and we are excited to order again when we can. I would fully recommend this restaurant!

I was excited to see this new restaurant open up offering soup dumplings and other favorites in Wheaton. The rainbow dumplings were so good. They were offering a free kung fu tea with the order which was a bonus. You order at the counter and can watch the chef cook while you wait. There is plenty of seating if you choose to eat there.
