Dough Zone Dumpling House Tukwila Southcenter

We went Friday at 5 PM, just my wife and I. There was ample seating and we were sat immediately. We ordered the scallion pancakes, which were exceptional: not greasy, dry to the touch, warm, and crunchy. The vegetable and shrimp & pork pot stickers came with a generous starchy lace and were firm but tender. The service was really quite good, as they were attentive and not pushy. We left agreeing that it was a delightful experience, I guess we're easily amused.

I was craving dim sum, but wanted to try a new place, and this dumpling place was pretty good. Most of the dumplings had juice/broth in them which made them juicy and not dry. Note: They do offer water or hot tea when you first sit down. If you get hot tea, it's an additional $5.50 charge. * Pork and Crab Meat Xiao Long Bao 4.5/5 - Juicy and flavorful. * Sweet and Sour Cucumber 5/5 - Didn't come out pretty like in the pictures, but the cucumber was surprisingly very good. Fresh, cooling, nice texture, and steeped in a tasty sweet sauce. * Pork Wontons in chili sauce 3/5 - I didn't like this. The pork didn't taste good. The sauce was also not really spicy, more like salty and sour. * Q Bao Pan Fried 4/5 - Very flavorful. The bottom of the bao was pan-fried which added a nice texture.

Really bummed with our experience. Have ate at Dough Zones before with good experience but this was not. The Cucumbers were wilted and not classicly crispy. Most frustrating is the beef was over 75% fat. Super bummed.

New menu items! The pan fried pork bao is hot hot hot!!. And delicious. Always a good experience at Dough Zone. Of course go on a weekday, less busy.

We had so many different things and they were all extremely flavorful and delicious. All of the employees were very friendly and very prompt with refilling drinks. They all exude pride in the food they serve and the job they do which is rare nowadays. We had the Green Onion Pancake, Beef Pancake Roll, Beef Stew Noodle Soup, Banana Naan Bread, Beef steamed dumplings, Thai Milk Tea and Sour Plum Juice. Try it all! Your tastebuds will thank you for it!
