Purple Dragon
4.6 / 5 (92 reviews)

Description

Purple Dragon, a mobile food truck in Methven, serves comforting Japanese street food with standout dumplings—juicy, flavorful fillings and nicely crisped edges—ideal on chilly days. Ramen and noodle soups are warming but lean toward instant noodles and could use more meat and vegetables. Portions and pricing feel modest for the cost, and some dumplings arrive only toasted on one side. Despite that, the flavorful dumplings and friendly food-truck vibe make it a must-visit for dumpling lovers.

This fantastic food truck offers delicious Japanese cuisine. The dumplings were incredibly flavorful! I can't wait to return and try the rest of their menu, especially on a chilly day when I'm looking for some comforting food.

I recently enjoyed some of the best dumplings I’ve had in a long time. The filling was juicy and packed with flavor. This gem is a food truck located in Methven, so keep an eye out for the purple truck that operates just a few days a week! They also offer delicious ramen and noodle soup options, making it an ideal stop when the winds start to pick up. I absolutely loved it!

It's fantastic to realize that we don't need to travel to Japan to savor world-class dumplings. A huge thank you to the Purple Dragon Team! They were delicious!
