Dumpling 85

The wonton soup, steamed pork dumplings and the xiao long bao are really good! Laid back environment with friendly, fast, and attentive service: Definitely coming back! (Maybe next time I’ll sit at the bar and watch the cooks make the dumplings!)

Dumpling 85 is a worthy competitor to Dumpling Time. Delicious dim sum. Service was quick and friendly. Will be back. Only drawback is limited menu. If you want a fuller menu you probably want to go to Coi Palace or the Mayflower Restaurant.

Really good soup dumplings ("XLB"). The soup inside was hot, temperature wise, the way I like it. Definitely not a fast place but I rather have the soup dumplings served well than rushed.

I did see a lady who looked like she was a server on the phone in one of the dining booths when I came in. She didn't look my way and the kitchen staff had to signal to her and she still didn't look over. A younger man popped out and served me instead and he was great.

A tip for the owners: your soup dumplings are very hot temperature wise, it's great flavor wise, but you may want to put a warning on your menu and have your staff explain it before people eat it. There will also be a lot of people who may not know there is hot soup inside of the dumplings so use your menus and staff as an opportunity to expand that understanding.
