" This was one of my favorite food experiences in a while! I rolled up with a group and tried quite a few dishes. The Xiao Long Bao stole the show—they were juicy and flavorful! I particularly loved the spicy wontons; they had the perfect kick. It's worth noting that the service is entirely changed; they only take order through mobile, which is a little different but worked out fine for us. The ambiance is casual and not overly fancy, but that’s not the focus here, and I appreciated the modest vibe. Overall, it’s great value for authentic dumplings. I already ordered my next visit in my head! " (*Curated Review*)

" After several visits to Sunny Dumpling House, I feel compelled to share my experiences! Their dumplings are top-notch, especially the pan-fried ones, which balance crispiness and flavor beautifully. My only note is that during peak hours, the wait can get long, so make sure to sign in on the waitlist promptly. The staff is friendly, and the ordering experience was seamless. I appreciate the authenticity of the flavors; they remind me of home-cooked meals. This place is a fantastic option for a casual meal! " (*Curated Review*)

" I stumbled upon Sunny Dumpling House, and I'm so glad I did! The noodles were truly authentic, which made me feel that I was back in China. My favorite were the Dandan Noodles; they had just the right amount of heat and flavor. Aside from the noodles, the dumplings were fantastic too; definitely try the spicy pork dumplings! I recommend getting there early as it gets busy quickly. The ordering via QR code felt very modern; I didn't mind it at all. Everyone on the staff is pleasant! Overall, I had a lovely dining experience. " (*Curated Review*)

" Absolutely delightful experience here! I loved the light yet authentic flavors in every dish. The dumplings were top quality, and you must try the scallion pancakes too—they’re crispy and bursting with flavor! The ambiance has a relaxed neighborhood feel, making it a good choice for a casual outing. The service out here is mostly digital, but I didn’t mind since the food speaks for itself. I’ll be back for sure! " (*Curated Review*)

" I was really excited about this place, especially after a long week. The decor is minimal, but it adds to the authenticity. The dumplings were fantastic, and fresh—no surprises there! However, the ordering procedure felt a bit impersonal. You have to place your order through your phone instead of having a server take it. I understand the efficiency, but I prefer a bit of human interaction when dining out. Everything we ordered was great. I would definitely return for more dumplings, but I hope they consider more traditional service options too. " (*Curated Review*)

" I really wanted to love this place after hearing such great things! The dumplings are undeniably delicious, especially the XLB. They were filled with soup and had a nice balance of flavor. While I enjoyed the food, it was a busy time and my order took longer than expected, and it felt a bit chaotic. I would suggest coming at off-peak hours for a better experience. But overall, I would still recommend it! " (*Curated Review*)

" Sunny Dumpling House serves incredible dumplings that can rightfully compete with bigger names like Din Tai Fung. The freshness is evident in each bite; I love how the dumplings are made right in front of you! The Xiao Long Bao comes highly recommended; it was perfectly juicy. My only complaint would be the slightly formulaic ordering system that can feel a little detached. Regardless, the food quality makes it absolutely worth it! " (*Curated Review*)
