Juicy Dumpling Factory

food with flavordumplings did not disappoint friendly environment - will for sure comeback again .

3.5 StarsHonestly my first tell-tale sign that this place would be just okay was the lack of Asian diners--though, to be fair, this is Huntington Beach. It definitely feels catered to the local crowd.The dumplings were decent, but the spicy wontons were the real standout--so good! The beef roll had great flavor but could've been crispier. Kung Pao chicken was solid, and the chow mein with chicken was just okay--didn't quite hit that traditional chow mein flavor I was hoping for.It gets busy, but not quite on the level of places like Northern Cafe. Overall, an okay spot, but not a must-visit for serious dumpling lovers.

The dumplings were OK! They weren't anything special. I'm not sure what the hype is about this place? It's definitely not up to par with Din Tai.However, the garlic green beans were excellent. I actually prefer these green beans over anywhere else. Only if the rest of the food was as outstanding.The service was quick and efficient. The waitresses were friendly.The dining room was very small and due to the influx of popularity, the restaurant was very packed. Tables were too close together with barely any room to walk.

I was in a mood for some juicy pork dumplings and dan dan noodles so my friend recommended this place. The food was fresh and authentic, loved it and it hit the spot! We were on our foodie adventure so we only ordered these 2 items to share, then we were off to our next restaurant!The dumplings were plump, juicy, and flavorful. The dan dan noodles were bold in flavor and the noodles had a nice chewy texture to them. I love that there was bok choy added in addition to the expected thinly sliced cucumbers. These 2 dishes complemented each other well! I recommend both!

My family and I live nearby and have been wanting to try this location for a while and we finally got a chance to. The food was mediocre. The dumplings are steamed, but they seemed very watery on the inside. Overall each item that we had wasn't very flavorful. To be honest I've had better dumplings that were frozen in comparison to their "freshly made" dumplings.

The online ordering system was down at 7pm but I was still able to order over the phone! The place was clean and easy to pick up food.Beef roll 5/5 very addicting and delicious! They have a sesame soy sauce and it paired great with the beef rollCucumber 2/5 I wish the cucumber sauce had more flavor, it wasn't bad but I don't think I would order this dish again

Stumbled across this restaurant from TikTok and I am very pleased!! When entering the establishment, you can either order to go or sit down and have a server take your order. I ordered the beef roll, juicy pork dumplings, Dan Dan noodles, and the mango yogurt drink. Beef Rolls: 4/5, loved it with the vinegar Pork Juicy Dumplings: 5/5, loved the broth and were a good sizeDan Dan Noodles: 4/5, not too spicy, but had a nice kick Mango yogurt drink: 3.5/5 was more tart and less sweet than I expected, but still refreshing Portions were great that I had enough for leftovers, all the food tasted delicious, and all came out in an efficient manner. This is a great and cozy spot to satisfy your XLB needs! Looking forward to my next visit! :-)

I decided to check this place out when I found it randomly as I was driving by. Beef RollOne of my personal favorites here is the beef roll. The exterior shell is usually crispy, giving it that satisfying crunch, while the filling is generously packed with tender beef. It's a hearty and satisfying dish, though I do wish they added a bit more sauce to really bring the flavors together. Still, it's a must-try for anyone who loves beef rolls. Xiao Long Bao (XLB)The Xiao Long Bao (XLB) is another standout. These soup dumplings have just the right amount of flavorful broth inside, but you'll want to eat them quickly to enjoy the soup at its best temperature--otherwise, it can get a bit cold if you leave it out for too long. One thing I think would elevate the experience is if they included some fresh ginger on the side, which many other places offer as an accompaniment. Steamed DumplingsFor a more straightforward but equally tasty option, the steamed dumplings are definitely worth trying. They're well-made, with a nice balance of filling and delicate wrappers. These dumplings make for a great, light snack if you're not in the mood for something as heavy and oily as the beef roll.Braised Beef Noodle SoupThe braised beef noodle soup is another dish worth trying. While it's not as spicy or rich as some other versions out there, it still offers a comforting bowl of noodles with tender beef. If you prefer something on the milder side, this could be a perfect fit, but those looking for bold, spicy flavors might be left wanting a little more.Located in a convenient strip mall, Juicy Dumpling Factory offers ample parking, which is a big plus compared to some of the more crowded spots in town. Inside, the space is clean and organized, with employees working hard to keep things running smoothly. They do their best to turn over tables quickly, which helps keep the wait time low, especially during those busy weekend hours.However, the tables can feel a little cramped if you're dining as a party of 2 (which is what I did) and ordering a lot of food lol. Final ThoughtsOverall, I highly recommend Juicy Dumpling Factory to anyone looking for a satisfying, no-fuss dumpling experience in Huntington Beach. The food is flavorful, the service is efficient, and the atmosphere is casual yet organized. If you're in the area and don't want to wait hours for a table at Din Tai Fung, this place is a great alternative. From the crispy beef roll to the delicious XLB, there's something here for everyone. Just make sure to get there early if you want to avoid the weekend rush! You can also order take out if you just want to be in and out of the restaurant.

Decent spot to satisfy my cravings. I ordered takeout. Beef wrap is top tier, and I would totes come back just for the beef wrap!!I ordered the braised beef noodle soup (soup could use more depth), dan dan noodle (flavor was good), pork spicy wonton (skin was a little thick to my liking), pork and cabbage pan fried dumplings, and chicken xlb.

Amazing service and food. Highly recommend! Cucumber salad, pork bun app, spicy pork wontons and juicy pork dumplings. All amazing!!!
