Reviews for Yumpling in Queens, NY
Another Taiwanese restaurant offering some of the most popular dishes in LIC! I tried the dumplings and I think it was okay.... Flavor didn't pop for me. The beef noodle soup on the other hand is much better. I like that the beef is very tender, THICKcut, and given many pieces. Often other restaurants slice them very thin and offer only a few pieces but Yumpling went the rightroute, making this dish the way it's supposed to be offered. Read more
Came here for a quick lunch for the first time and we love it! Everything was freshly made to order and the portion was huge. We... got the fried pork chop and fried chicken bentos. The meat was crispy and it came with some side dishes and soft boiledmarinated eggs. The only thing we don't like about it was that it was a bit too salty for all of us... Felt kinda heavy afterhaving a few bites. But overall, the service was great, decor was cute, and food was delicious! Love having a taiwaneserestaurant in the neighborhood! Read more
Love the name of the establishment! I decided to try the fried chicken sandwich and was so glad I did. I was pleasantly... surprised at how juicy the chicken was. Loved the sauce that was on the chicken too...super tasty. I also got a side ofshoestring fries and ordered a passion fruit bubble tea. The menu allows for customization of their specialty drinks, includingchoosing the topping, type of tea...and the sweetness level. I told the cashier that it was my first time there, and he answeredmy questions and was super friendly. I plan on visiting again soon and trying the dumplings next time. I recommend Yumpling. Oh,the establishment also has a restroom available for use. Read more
Friends brought us here for lunch and it did not disappoint. I wish I had a second stomach. Everything was so good, I wanted to... eat more. Each dish was fresh, the meat juicy and the breading crisp. And we asked for the chicken sandwich to be spicy and ithad such a good kick to it. Definitely recommend and will be back Read more
Walking past & saw this place and the high reviews on the signage and figured I?d give it a try. I was disappointed to find out... a dumpling restaurant didn?t have veggie dumplings. And when asking when they?d return that it would be awhile due to supplychain issues. I didn?t ask but I assumed they made their dumplings in house and if it?s stuck in a boat like she mentioned? arethey frozen? I don?t know and have mixed feelings about that (not that frozen food can?t be delicious). But anyway, wasn?tinterested in the pork ones on my visit. Decided I?d try some other stuff on the menu and it didn?t taste bad but I wasn?timpressed with my dish. My partner enjoyed theirs but also didn?t feel like for the price the flavors were stellar. But thatbeing said, it didn?t taste flavorless and careless; they?re using some quality ingredients but seasoning on the subtle sidewhich I def needed more. I?d really give this place food wise 4 stars BUT here?s where great customer service really lifts up arestaurant. My cashier was pleasant , friendly, and knowledgeable. Our interaction was so pleasant that?s why I even continuedto order and she got me to make a sale regardless of not having what I wanted to try and I remember that all being so pleasant.In a city of often indifference, having great customer service really stands out and makes me want to go back, write goodrecommendations and endorse the restaurant. I?m definitely going to give them another shot food wise and try a sauce they makeor just bring what I need in my bag with me (like I was saying it?s tasty, but subtle to me, and I like it a bit bolder!) theslow braised beef was certainly that, and was so tender. Rice was good. The cucumbers needed work to me a lot cause it feltreally just like raw unseasoned cucumbers to me. Cold Noodle dish my partner liked but wanted more sesame oil and flavor butwasn?t like ?I can?t/don?t want to eat this?. All in all I think it?s worth checking out and you?ll be the final ju Read more
Overall pretty good. Fried chicken sandwich was juicy and well seasoned. You get a big piece of chicken. Pork bowl was also... super tasty. Everything was a little aggressively spicy in a good way. Nitpick is I could taste the oil it was fried in somaybe the oil could have been fresher? Dumplings were good too but skins were thicker than I like. I enjoyed my meal and wouldcome back Read more
My friends eat here quite often and told me to try it. They have a range of options, noodles, rice, dumplings, and more. I tried... the chicken sandwich and really liked it. The chicken is fried and very thin and crispy. It is not overwhelming or thick. I amglad I tried it and will try and venture out to Queens again. It is also right next to the subway stop which is very easy to getto. Read more
TLDR: Get the fried chicken sandwich. You?ll thank me later. If you like fried chicken sandwiches, then absolutely must try the... one they serve here. It?s insanely delicious. First off, the piece of chicken in the sandwich is HUGE and very soft, juicy, andtender inside (not dried out like a lot of other places) which makes a big difference. It?s served on a potato roll and toppedwith basil leaves, scallions, and a Basil Aioli. ???? To balance it all out I got a side dish of the garlicky cucumbers whichwere fresh, crunchy, and again: delicious. The staff are very friendly. There was initially a little mixup in the order, but Iwas given a few options on how to proceed and it was quickly rectified. They even offered extra food on top of my order inaddition to a full refund (wow for service ????????), which I declined simply because of their overly gracious attitude and thefact the I love supporting small businesses in my neighborhood. There are a few tables inside the restaurant to eat in, but Ijust popped in with my dog to pick up my order for take out. But I may try dining in at some point. It closes on the early sidethough (usually around 8pm), just wish it was open until later in the evening. Overall, I highly recommend trying out thisTaiwanese restaurant. The fried chicken sandwich was incredible and they have a lot of other dishes that look great and I wantto try so I?ll definitely be coming back. Read more
