The Best Dumplings & 5-spice Beef in Denver

by den123

We were going to go to J's Noodles next door, but changed our mind at the last minute, as we've always wanted to try this place. We're so glad we did! I haven't been able to find five-spice beef in Denver that tasted as good as this since I lived in LA, where I grew up. The potstickers really are the best in town. The meat is perfectly spiced and I believe they're hand wrapped. So good! We haven't tried the Shanghai dumplings yet, but will next time we're there. Also, the portions are HUGE. If I order the dumplings ($6), they have to be shared or I can't eat anything else, b/c there are 10 per order. The prices are incredibly reasonable and the owners are really nice. The only thing is that it's dirty. The walls haven't been cleaned in ages, nor have the condiments on the table. When we go in, we just make a concerted effort to avert our eyes from the walls and pick up the soy and vinegar bottles with napkins.

• Pros: Authentic

Absolutely Best Soup Dumplings and Potstickers in Denver area

Not a huge place, so it can be packed at times. This place has friendly service and fantastic food. The owners/operators of this authentic Taiwanese restaurant create addicting foods such as soup dumplings, potstickers and their traditional beef noodle soup. Give this place a try, it absolutely rocks!
