This is by far the best dumpling place in Stockton, Lodi , Manteca. A must try place. I met the owner today and he is so humble and down to earth friendly!!! Comfortable atmosphere and delicious food. I had the pork soup dumplings and they were very flavorful!! Cucumber salad was delicious and fresh tasty. A must try place

I tried their spicy pork soup dumplings and I was pleasantly surprised with how good they were. I would compare the quality to Dough Zone, but the service was what really made it so enjoyable. My server was great at explaining the menu and giving recommendations.

Found this place on Instagram and decided to give it a try! I must say I’m glad that we finally have a great dumpling restaurant here in Stockton! It’s a small restaurant and their open kitchen allows you to see how they make their dumplings! Also, their decoration is pretty cute! As I walked in, I was greeted and seated instantly. I ordered multiple dishes: I got the house special soup dumplings, crab and pork soup dumplings, seafood fried rice, spicy wontons, salt and pepper fish, and their Shanghai fried noodles. The house special soup dumplings are a must-try; the soup and the flavor are top tier! 10/10 Crab and pork soup dumplings are not bad, a bit on the salty side but definitely worth a try if you are a crab person. 7/10 Spicy wontons are flavorful; the wrap is not too thick and not too thin, but could be a little spicier to my preference. 8.5/10 Fried rice was awesome! I was surprised the amount of seafood they put in their fried rice, it was a little unexpected! Now that’s the definition of a seafood fried rice! 9/10 Salt and pepper fish was a great appetizer. 8/10 Shanghai fried thick noodles were savory and delicious, good portion too! 8/10 Overall, it was a very pleasant experience. Yall should give it a try!

The staff is great, decent prices, the food is amazing! If you're looking for something different, and exciting, this is the place for you. The soup dumplings are not just tasty they are fun to eat! My favorite item is the "house special beef roll"

First time trying this place out. And I’m not disappointed at all. Love it here. Food is amazing and the service is just as great. Thank you to the young lady that was our waitress. She was very attentive. Recommended this place to those looking for a dumpling fix.
