This is absolutely, hands down, one of the best dumpling houses in all of New York City. The staff is incredibly friendly and they give you and make you your food with joy, the food is prepared very quickly, it’s quite amazing. I had a pork sandwich and it was great. It came with carrots and some cilantro too, yum yum yum yum, yum. Yum. YUM. SO YUMMY. In short, I love everything about this place. Google maps confused when finding this place. I didn’t need google maps though. I already knew where it was. This restaurant is highly recommended.

The hand made noodles were the best I ever had. They were just the right thickness and texture. I also tried their dumplings and they were just as good. The seating area was not like a fancy restaurant but it was ok to eat in.

Love this place, been coming here since a I was kid. Their dumplings are good but the star is their scallion pancakes, fried in oil and is airy and fluffy, not like a traditional flat one. Just found out that this store is a chain!

A Taste of Authenticity in Chinatown I recently had the pleasure of trying out "Venssas Dumpling House" on Eldrigestreet in the heart of Chinatown. Let me tell you, it's as close to an authentic Chinese experience as you can get. Now, that might be a hit or miss for some, but if you're all about the real deal, this is your spot. The ambiance, I'll admit, isn't exactly Instagram-worthy – it's a bit rough around the edges, and cleanliness is a work in progress. However, when you're here, you're not here for the decor; you're here for the dumplings. And oh, did they deliver! These dumplings were a symphony of flavors that left my taste buds dancing. What's even better is that it won't burn a hole in your pocket. The price-to-quality ratio is spot on, making it accessible for everyone. Just a little heads up, it's strictly self-service at the counter, and they only accept cash. So, don't forget to hit up the ATM before satisfying your dumpling cravings. "Venssas Dumpling House" in Chinatown offers an authentic Chinese experience that's not for the decor-conscious, but it's a hidden gem for dumpling lovers. These delicious bites are budget-friendly, and the only catch is they take cash only. So, if you're in the mood for some tasty, no-frills dumplings, give this place a try!

The dumplings here are reliably so delicious! Make sure to get the spicy sauce add on/ also the sesame bread sandwich is great! I liked it with the veggie slaw personally. Honestly you can’t go wrong with any order!

Came here off a recommendation and had the -pan fried pork & chives dumplings (8/10) -Sesame pancake sandwich 17a Peking duck with scallions & cucumber (10/10) my favourite dish here and done so well. The flavouring done perfect for the Peking duck then paired with the nice crunch from the sesame pancake, and cucumber. This was so good I had to order one to go. The service here was okay due to the staff not being able to speak perfect English as you expect. Then also having a huge table and Plexi glass to talk over. The food did take a bit of time as they make it fresh on the spot. The inside of the restaurant isn’t the nicest spot, but gets the job done with seating. Definitely check it out for the food. Don’t suggest using the bathroom.

Delicious and simple ! Very affordable , cash only. I had the noodles which were amazing! Hand rolled and then cooked fresh. I sat with others at communal tables and it was great fun. The dumplings looked amazing too.

I am not a fan of dumplings. I decided to stop by this place because the restaurant I had in mind was closed. Don’t know much about dumplings I just ordered randomly. I wished I studied the menu before coming. Overall it was good. I ordered wonton soup, chicken basil dumpling , Dan Dan noodle, and sesame sandwich. I wished they had a good sauce to enhance the taste. Incase you don’t know what to eat you can do what I did just try it.
