Dumpling Baby China Bistro

Damn. I have been looking for a good good bowl of wor wonton soup for a long time ever since the Pine Garden restaurant in Newark closed. I happen to be visiting relatives and was driving by after 9:00 p.m. looking for hot soup and a place to sit down and I saw the sign and thought well, why not? This turned out better because it was a really good won ton soup. A nice simple chicken broth, pork wontons, a lot of nice vegetables and some mushrooms, piping hot and it hit the spot. Good size wontons, not the ones where somebody puts in a half teaspoon of meat, but a nice chunky chewable soup spoon sized ball of pork meat wrapped up nice. They have other items on the menu. See the pictures below and the website itself which I intend to try in the future. While I'm not in San Francisco a whole lot, this definitely will become one of my destinations should I be in the area. Oh, and typical Geary Street parking, you might be half a block away or two blocks away but it is worth it.

one thousand times YES. came here for proximity purposes... but honestly might eat here for the rest of the trip and thankfully we can eat it again because the portions were HUGE and it barely looked like the 2 of us made a dent after stuffing our faces. the crispy honey sesame chicken is deliciously crunchy and addicting... shanghai chubby noodles hit the spot... and the crab cheese rangoons were packed with cream cheese and flavor then fried to perfection. the sauce on the chicken is made to order and wish we would have requested more- it's delicious!! definitely a good spot for take-out, since there aren’t many options for sitting inside. i cannot say enough good things about this place... all i know is that we'll be coming back.

Pretty darn good food. Finally stopped by after driving by for a couple of years and thinking that no one ever came here. First, it's now obvious that they do a lot of takeout business, and second, the food is really yummy. The spinach-mushroom bao bun is pretty decent, and the chicken and green bean entree has some really nice flavors happening. Will definitely come back to try more items.

Pretty solid stop for some quick Chinese food. We tried a number of things and all of it was solid. The Bao Buns look so perfectly formed that they could be straight from a frozen package. The Har Gow were our favorite dumplings, and the Four Seasons Chow Mein was really good and the quantity was generous.

DUMPLING BABY IS INCREDIBLE!!! I would recommend to anyone who enjoys good food and a good time. Delicious meals, super clean, and very friendly staff. Definitely get the dragon fried rice and the egg custard bao.

Really loved this place and would highly recommend! Lots of options for dumplings and what you would expect from a dumpling/Chinese restaurant! Easy ordering and food was ready when they told us.

Extremely friendly staff and owner. They make delicious food. Highly recommend honey sesame chicken and Shanghai noodles. But all their food is delicious! Walked in and ordered and my food was done within 10 minutes! Please support this local business.
