if your going to do one thing, do it well. Patty Chen's dumpling house excels at their mission. I also love that they have gluten-free options; one negative, the gluten-free soy sauce is way too salty
Patty Chen's offers a selection of both savory & sweet dumplings (nutella/banana, or sweet red bean pan fried). Their daily specials are inspired by global cuisines—there’s even a Mexican dumpling! Baca selanjutnya
Best dumpling are the fried Taipei dumplings, and even those are pretty mediocre. At this price point, I should be eating the best dumplings this side of Chinatown.
Expected the mini bao to be.....a bao (steamed, thick leavened dough) and it was essentially a pan fried gyoza shaped like a bao. Still yummy, but not what I expected.
The room is tiny. Waiting can be really long, though, and sometimes they lose/forget your order. Dumplings are fine, but don't take special bacon dumplings - almost no bacon there! Open until midnight
Nutella & banana dumplings were a huge mistake. Fried to a greasy crisp, barely any filling, and cinnamon just dumped on top. $5 for 4 mediocre dumplings?
The soup dumplings are only decent + the customer service is bad. When we paid for the check at the counter, the hostess began to yell at us for not giving "sufficient tip". Go to Taiwan Cafe instead!
