Reviews for Vanessa's Dumpling House in New York, NY
We tried this place and enjoyed spicy pan fried shrimp and chicken dumplings, pork and chives dumplings, steamed chicken and... cabbage buns and duck pancake. Everything was delicious but I could skip the duck pancake. It was more like a sandwich. I wasexpecting it to be like scallion pancake but with duck. Read more

Got the tofu sesame pancake (not pictured) and assorted dumplings (pictured). The dumplings were average but the sesame pancake... tasted very similar to the ones I always got for breakfast in Taiwan! Great price too for the portion! Will def rec to all myfriends. Read more
Absolutely love this place. I get it at least once a week. I got the spicy veggie wontons and the chicken dumplings. The spicy... veggie wontons were so so delicious. The spinach and mushroom goes together so well. The hot chili oil was to die for (almosttoo literally sometimes lol). I?ve had their veggie wonton soup as well and it was awesome ($4 for 4 wontons!) The chickendumplings are a great staple item that I also love ordering. Can?t wait to go back next week! Read more
Really delicious, healthy tasting, fresh veggie dumplings. 8 per order - get with spicy chili oil and cilantro for a small extra... charge. Also got a side of kimchi for just under $5 and it was HUGE - enough for four people. The kimchi had green apple and bigchunks of ginger which gave it a unique and refreshing taste. Certainly got my veg on, will be back to try some of the meatoptions (there's a dumpling sampler option) and definitely work my way through the noodle section of the menu :) Read more
Flavor of the filling was great, but my pan fried dumplings were a little burnt on the bottom. Excellent prices! Definitely will... go back. Went back a second time and my dumplings got better prep. Also had a plain sesame pancake with chili oil. Great forthe price! Read more
I saw this staple wasn?t getting enough love in the upper west side, and HAD to leave my 5 star review. I saw other people... talking about how the spicy dumpling were too spicy, like all they?ve been eating in their lives is milk bread with a side ofyogurt??? The spicy dumplings are a lil spicy but like black pepper level. Go here and get the boiled dumplings in the spicysauce. It taste great, is affordable and and overall great lil dinner for you to share :) The scallion pancakes are pretty bombtoo, they do tend to skimp on the amount of filling though. But still worth it compared to any of the other places on Amsterdam. Read more
I really wanted to like this place, and obviously lots of people do, because it was busy when we went on a Thursday night.... However, even though the prices aren?t bad, the food is just not quite right. The hot and sour soup was neither spicy nor sour,and the boiled dumplings had a puffy steamed quality, and taste wise they weren?t great. The shrimp and chicken wontons withspicy sauce were okay but surprisingly lacking in flavor. You can get bags of frozen dumplings to take home for $15. Read more
