Dumpling Queen - Chantilly

The food is always fresh at this restaurant. Customers have been coming here for years and the service is consistently quick and the quality of the food never disappoints. The dumplings seem to be freshly made on site and the fried rice is very generous in portion size.

This restaurant is a family-owned business run by a family from Chengdu, Sichuan, China. They specialize in Sichuan-style cuisine, which is known for its bold flavors and spicy dishes. One must-try dish is their Toasty Sichuan Style Green Beans, which are cooked with peanuts and Sichuan peppercorns that create a mouthwatering experience. Additionally, their version of Suanla Fen (Sour and Hot Glass Noodles), which I stumbled upon at a small noodle stand in Chengdu, is available here under the name Mung Bean.

Delicious food! Best Tofu I've had in years! Soup Dumplings did not need any sauce, they were excellent. Dan Dan Noodles were a spicy cold/hot flavor that is hard to describe, but great to eat! Shanghai Bok Choy with Garlic Sauce was so good, the sauce was very light. Lili's dumplings, (fried),were worth the visit, but the two of us ordered with leftovers in mind so most of them went home for later. We had more than enough rice and it was also very good.

I have been aware of these restaurants for a few years, but only recently decided to try them out. I wish I had done so sooner. The dumplings and Cha-Jiang noodles were both authentic and delicious. However, the standout dish was the deep-fried spare ribs, which were both tender and flavorful. The Steamed Soup Dumplings were also good, although some of them were already broken in the steamer. I would not recommend the damped dumplings as they had some white stuff on the plate.

This is my favorite place for Chinese food and such a jewel! The main woman who works here always treats me so nice and friendly. She is unbelievable and always works nonstop to serve her hungry males, she is the real MVP. Here are pictures from three different meals (I recommend every dish I tried! plus the current menu so. You can find out about the prices. The first meal, I got crispy spicy fish, garlic cucumbers and victories in chilli oil. If your garlic lover like me, the garlic Gurke Veggie dish is for you as it is full of minced garlic and dressed in sesame oil. Its so delicious and tasteful I got it several times (see second picture! The crispy seasoned fish is literally one of the best dishes I've ever had! Its deep fried pieces of a kind of white fish that is super delicate and moist on the inside and crispy crispy on the outside. Instead of being served with a sauce, it is sown in the most tasteful combination of things like dried red chili, Zilantro rod/life, roasted peanuts, chopped garlic and sesame seeds. It's so good, I got it twice (see second picture! and it comes in a chicken version and tofu version that I have to try! In another visit to this incredible restaurant I got the Xinjiang Style Pork Fried Ribs and the Scallion Pancakes based on another recommendation. The pork ribs are $20 and are so worth that they are a specialty of North China. Packed a huge stamp when I come to taste, I think they were marinated in a combination of soy sauce, 5 spice powder, and fish sauce and then fried with chopped garlic and roasted sesame seeds. Very recommended! If you want a delicious Chinese food you will take away from the traditional lo my and general tsao's (not that it is something wrong with it! Dumpling Queen is the place to go this are the dishes to try! To the wonderful owner, cook and all employees: Xièxiè ni :
