for friends who live downtown, chopstickers! love their soup dumplings and dan dan noodles

My wife and I just found your page an hour or 2 ago and have been watching your channel since then. She just asked if you had a “best dumpling” video and sure enough AS WE ARE WATCHING YOUR CHANNEL you upload the exact video. Thank you for all the amazing videos!!

Stretch goal acachieved! Congratulations

There's a new dim sum restaurant open in Broomfield called Hong Guan. It's at 120th & Main in the same building as the former dim sum restaurant whose name I can't remember at the moment. But it's a step up from the former restaurant, I liked it a lot. Definitely a great option for cart dim sum if you're up north.

Ahahaha! When you were saying to make a reservation at nana’s I was thinking to myself yeah so we don’t end up walking around for an hour or two like we did at the juicy seafood…same guy!

Dillons dumplings opened recently on Tower & Hampden, finally good stuff further east, I recommend. The soup dumplings arent as "soupy" as other places but they are still good.

Thank you Dave! You are the meccah for Denver food. Love the channel

Yuan Wonton’s brick and mortar space is really nice. We go there just about twice a month via reservations on Fridays. Their OG wonton is my fav and their garlic noodles are the best. Plus the chef gets pretty creative with new featured items regularly. Though it’s not a cheap place and we consider it our splurge meal, service is always fantastic.

The best Sui Mai and spicy wonton I had are from Happy Dumpling that is located in Northglenn. Great food and boba house!

THANK YOU. I’ve never had bao and I NEED TO

Linglon is my favorite by far!!

So many good looking spots! I'm always a sucker for a dim sum-style place with good sumai, especially if they are walking around with the carts.

Been to Dillion’s x3, as it’s in our neighborhood. We’ve enjoyed it every time. We’ve have a majority of their dumplings and tried their entree items as well. It’s a little family owned business. They’re all very hospitable and kind.

The goat has returned !

I just moved to Lafayette, definitely going to try King Dumpling!

I am gonna hit up Lo Wang this week.... just because of this video! Thanks Dave!

Hey Dave love your videos! Just moved to Denver and was initially disappointed by the food, but I realized there's good stuff, you just have to know where to look. You do a great job highlighting all these local businesses which I think is great.

Just subscribed. I love dumplings. Wish there were more on my side of town ( Morrison area). We are getting a Hot Pot place soon I'm excited about!

Have you been to Honey Pig Cafe in Lone Tree? They are temporarily closed for a remodel but I love their dumplings and orange chicken. Since there’s not too many options south I thought I would mention it.

Thanks for all the recommendations! I love dumplings so I’m excited to work through this list! If you haven’t been to Fortune Wok to Table in Cherry Creek, they have my favorite dumplings in Denver. Their Shanghainese Street Noodles are also yum.

New subscriber here- really enjoying your channel & look forward to trying some of these places! If there are any really good Middle Eastern/Turkish/Greek places besides Safta (it’s wonderful) would love a round up of those - thanks!

Chinese Palace in Northglenn (very creative name, I know) just opened last month and we tried it for the first time yesterday. The flavors are more northern Chinese/Beijing but was very good. My favorite in the metro area has been Mason Dumpling House.

loved the vid man..been to many of these places.....just a thought though......your super close to the camera man........makes it a little distorted, especially with all the cools stuff in the background....buy, hey, thats me.......but again......love that you showcase all my favorite spots

Great video my dude.

If you consider momos to be in the same category, try Rocky mountain momos, and spice mix (ghost kitchen).

great video thanks for the info!

I live right by Dillon’s and I’ve ate here a few times, but I don’t have anything to compare them to as I’ve never had dumplings previously to eating here. I tried their all in one meal that included one of every dumpling and I thought they were all good. We also tried some non dumpling menu items that weren’t special

Not really a dumpling place but I do like the xiao long bao and pan fried dumplings at Dating Yumy/Yummy in Aurora. No frills, inexpensive, uncrowded place to get some decent chinese food.

Great video! Our family has been watching your videos and really appreciate your honest take on things. Have you tried Yummy Hot Pot & Dumplings in Federal Heights yet? It has some szechuan dishes and Dumplings in chili oil that are delicious.

Dave - longtime listener first time caller. Love the dumpling content. I’m on a desperate hunt for cha siu bao. Any of the above have the magic, or recs otherwise? Much love!

Oriental cafe in highlands ranch (fried) is legit! Hard to find choy sum in denver

Mason’s is still our favorite xlb place but you’re totally right. The service is really hit or miss. Boulder location is definitely a pass. Nana’s is our other favorite but just pricey and not quite Ding Tai Fung. Dumpling kitchen has very similar vibes to linglon and decent xlb. It’s worth a visit if you’re in the area but I’m not a fan of their chili wonton. I live closest Bryan’s dumplings but won’t go there because they charge extra for rice with their mapo tofu dish. Sorry, that’s like charging for spaghetti when you get meat sauce.

Thanks for the review! I just tried Nana’s today. While the green beans were spectacular and the ambiance is “dive bar cool”, the dumplings, especially the chicken and corn dumplings (which we hadn’t even ordered but we didn’t feel like waiting another 25 minutes for them to get the order right) were nearly inedible. I still have the aftertaste of cigarettes and dishwater in my mouth. Also, $100 (including tip) for 2 people to eat a light lunch and no booze. Oof… Hopefully King’s is better!

King Dumplings in Louisville is the bomv

Visit Chopstickers and Kyoto Ramen on 16th and California. They're next to each other. Right across from Chipotle.

Dumpling Kitchen - IMO a very suburban choice. Not terrible. Not particularly memorable. CR location for reference. I love Star Kitchen and Lao Wang and recently discovered Ling Long. Great video.

was hoping to see some thornton coverage but alas...

Im surprised someone hasnt combined green chili and dumplings yet because colorado 😅

Lao Wang is fantastic, but yeah they do not mess around. I have seen them ignore someone until they left because they sat themselves. Glad to hear they are still running- a bit out of the way for me nowadays

There's a Nana's in Boulder too.

Is there any in the Northglenn/Thornton area? Never had dumplings and dying to try it.

could you do best dumplings shop in colorado spring? or best authentic asian food in colorado spring?

I found Nana's Dim Sum to be disappointing. ChoLon is much better at that price point. I'll have to try some of the other one's you mention. Shout out to Empress Seafood with some pretty decent Dim Sum on Alameda.

Go and try leezakaya here in aurora is a japanese pub style restaurant

finding good asian food has been such a struggle (although much better in the last few years). have you found a place that does good cheung fun (rice noodle dim sum dish)? the only place i've found is star kitchen and they usually only have shrimp which im allergic to.

What about the Empress? Did I miss something?

Have you been to the Dumpling Factory in Greenwood Village?

You went to Cholon instead of YumCha?

Any options close to the British Bulldog?

Do any of these places have gluten free dumplings?

The dumpling hosue is not worth the money...but those peeps down there with the money......i guess its ok with them since its so close...but yea....been there.......not my cup of tea........IF YOU LIKE RAMEN.....YOU NEED TO CHECK OUT SUKIYA OFF OF ARAPOHOE.......BEST RAMEN IN ALL OF DENVER........their broth is the freaken best!!!!!!!!

soup dumpling is good for American but once you have DTF. None of them can compare to it.....

Denver food in general sucks thanks for your help

There's really none that are worth going to. Most are factory frozen bought then reheated...if I wanted that, I can buy at hmart or GW

Bryan’s dumpling house is over priced and food is not good

Honestly I was super excited to watch this video and the quality is good but I lost trust in your judgement after you gave Nanas dumplings in Aurora a decent review. My coworkers told us not go there because they did enjoy it at all. Regardless of this, all my friends still gave it a try and it was the worst dumpling place we’ve ever been to. Pricing was way too high and there was no flavor in anything. What you said about the truffle was so true even though the waitress highly recommended it to us. There was no truffle or mushroom taste as far as we could tell. The green beans were the best thing on the menu. But absolutely one of the most lukewarm experiences we’ve had thus far. Although we did hear that the other Nanas locations were phenomenal. Maybe they were banking too much on the brand and the quality hasn’t been there when they opened. Keep in mind my friends and coworkers are Korean, Chinese, Vietnamese, and Latino. Even Masons tastes better. When people say there’s not good Asian restaurants here, it’s absolutely true relative to many other cities, so that statement still stands. But that’s not to say there aren’t many great places to go to. It’s definitely getting better every year.

Seoul Mandoo is average. NaNa's is not that good, they have a couple of good items. Their dough is way too thick and their soup dumplings are awful. Din Tai Fung's soup dumplings are way better.

I know this isn’t soup dumplings but please please check out china bejing they are amazing from the food to the staff and it’s family owned it’s in aurora please give them some shine

"So, if you are that guy who empties the vinegar thing on your table every time you have dumplings, these are for you, and you can dump even more on top of it because it's your life." 😅😂🤣👍💯💯💯🥟🥢
