Hidden in a little hallway in downtown Charlotte...known as the French Quarter, you will find this little dumpling place. We didn't know what to get so on the display, I just order the whole bottom 2 rows. I really liked the dan dan noodles. Pork and chives dumplings looked spicy but they weren't...good flavors. Spare ribs were fall off the bone. Beef with sweet potatoes were a nice surprise, rich and flavorful. Pork belly with leeks were also memorable. I did like the vegetables as well, garlicky with a smooth cream. Shrimp dush was good too with a sweet and spicy sauce. Pork and cucumber bun/ bao was delightful!Many people walked through and were impressed with our spread. Will definitely try again. Be forewarned it's a lot of food...we couldn't finish it all with 4 ppl and they gave us an assortment of rice to eat with it...fried rice was good. Purple sticky rice is always a good choice with rich dishes too.

Incredible!! The food is so delicious and yummy. Be advised it's very traditional so if you don't like salty this may not be for you. If you can catch a deal on Goodiebag you'll get so much delicious food for only $9 plus tax. It's worth it and will feed an entire family!The service was quick and efficient and if you do Goodiebag they'll already have your name ready to go. There's not a lot of space inside so you'll just be picking up your food to go or eat elsewhere. It is in uptown so be cautious when it comes to finding parking to pick up for food.

Jumped on a Goodiebag deal to try Nana Li by the Dumpling Lady. I was so excited that I actually grabbed two of the deals. Upon arrival to pick up the goodie bags, we were gifted additional items to try since we got there so close to closing. Our bags were nicely filled. The nibblings went inside to pick up the order since I had to drive and we were not able to get names of our dishes. I looked through the bags and was pleasantly surprised. Everything looked very delicious and alot of the dishes were covered in spicy chili oil.A few of the dishes had the numbing Sichuan pepper. Even though they were numbingly spicy, they were very enjoyable dishes. The nibbles loved everything we got in our goodie bags. However, they were looking forward to having some of the famous dumpling lady dumplings. We will have to visit again soon and grab some of the dumplings at this location.Nana Li by the Dumpling Lady320 South Tryon stCharlotte NC 28202 (Review 22 in 2024 and 822 overall)

The combo with two entrees is a good deal. We split the Dan Dan noodles and dry pot shrimp. Noodles were great but the shrimp was not. Also had a side of dumplings which were okay. But the coconut lava balls were my favorite! I'm a textures person and this dessert checked all the boxes - crispy, crunchy, creamy, and chewy.

Got the lunch combo. The Dan Dan noodles have a little spice but it was still delicious. Green beans definitely pairs well along with the side of fried rice. Want to try more next time !

The best dumpling lady location imo! I will say that it's a somewhat difficult place to enter/ visit but the food is good. Also the food is a bit too oily for me but the flavor is good
