    I came in with a friend on Saturday morning, just 5 mins before the opening hour. The restaurant filled up quickly, and we waiter for 15 mins to get our table. The food was excellent; the servers were attentive and friendly. This restaurant has a great side view overlooking the Chinatown station, which is excellent. I highly recommend it to other tourists and local people.

    I know if we go to Dough Zone we will get quick service and fabulous food. The wait can be long during busy hours but love that we can join the waitlist without being present. We always order soup dumplings, scallion pancake, and pan fried pork buns and make an effort to get a new dish with those each time. The minced pork noodles are a new favorite.

    This is the place if you're browsing for places to eat! Stop looking around. I cannot wait to visit Seattle again and come back here for some more delicious and tastey food. The food was by far exceptional and it hit all the right spots. Super authentic dumpling house with so many of my favorite options to choose from. So I got them all! Yum yum yum! The wait was on 15 minutes and the service was fast and friendly. Pricing was very reasonable. I would give them 10 stars if I was allowed.

    To be perfectly honest I went here thinking this place would be just another beige dumping house. I was wrong. Their dumplings are the best that I've ever had! The steamed dumplings were tender and the chicken shrimp filling delicious. I also had the fried mushroom, tofu, and noodle. The dumpling was crisp with no oil after taste and the filled trio blending nicely. The table had vinegar, soy sauce, and chili paste available. I tried the vinegar and soy sauce. Some of them with an individual sauce then I mixed them and found the right flavor for my taste. The onion pancakes were fine, but didn't stand out like the dumplings. Plenty of evening meter parking and the building is across from Seattle Uwajimaya.

    Dough Zone is an eclectic dim sum restaurant with many unique items that you can’t get at the other dim sum places. They are very unique. Our server Jimmy helped us order and was very friendly. - Spicy beef shank- the fusion of flavors of Szechuan peppercorns they used danced on my tongue and the meat melted in my mouth - Onion pancake - nice flaky layers - Chicken potstickers - almost like a soup dumpling with less broth and delicious filling - Pan fried ground beef cake - almost like a minced little meat pie. Crispy outer layer, soft inside - Beef noodle soup - nicely seasoned rich broth and a good portion of meat pieces. Ramen noodles were fresh, spongy and went well with the soup.

    The menu selection is excellent. I placed an order to go with relative ease (it’s on paper, but Ok). The soup dumplings are delicious, especially the shrimp and the chicken ones. Another delicious item we enjoyed was the sweet and sour cucumber. They have something for everyone at this restaurant. I highly recommend.

    Good and service was great! Everything was super hot like it was freshly made to order! (As it should) and my pig ears were delicious! Not everybody’s favorite but I loved it ᵕ̈ we ordered the pork and shrimp pot stickers, hot and sour glass noodles, onion and soy sauce noodles, and the pan fried ground beef cakes. It was delicious! I would come here again! ᵕ̈ around $20 a person!

    I loved their passion fruit green tea! We ordered their famous Dan Dan noodles and we loved it. It had a unique spicy aftereffects which I really liked. The portion is decent. The chicken pot stickers were hot but okay. The service was quick, fast and friendly. The atmosphere and price is decent too. I'm coming back here again :)

    Decent place compared to Din Tai Fung. Had some unique items that most places dont carry. DTF XLB are still the best imho. Get the pork and crab XLB. Very flavorful yet delicate. Does not overpower you.

    The food was good, but turned out the steamed broccoli was my favorite dish. 🤷🏾‍♂️ They bring dishes out pretty fast, so be prepared for a full table of you order a few dishes simultaneously.

    PROS: Service was Incredibly quick between ordering and receiving our meal. *literally 3 minutes Staff was friendly Table was clean Pricing was very reasonable CONS: Took too long to get a table at 2 in the afternoon. *half hour Since you can't ding the restaurant for being popular,, I'd say it's this is a great place to add to your rotation!

    What I really like about this place is that the dough for everything has a nice bite. The soup dumplings held their shape well with no leakage and were tasty. Also really liked the Dan Dan noodles. Great texture on the noodles and the sauce was quite numbing and creamy

    The Dough Zone is an excellent restaurant to indulge in Chinese Dumplings and Noodles. I ordered soup dumplings, Dan Dan Noodles, Beef Soup Noodle and Spicy Noodles. The dumplings, Dan Dan Noodles and Beef Noodle soup were outstanding. The portion sizes are small, but the prices are very affordable, so it’s good to try several items. My server was a little slow, I had to request a drink refill. Overall, this was a good dinning experience.

    Very clean, modern place that was very, very affordable! The food was absolutely EXCELLENT, I can’t express this enough. I had Q-bao and hot and sour clear noodles and the flavors of the soup was rich. The bao was soft yet crunchy in the right places and cooked to perfection. Their takeout section was busy and I totally understand why. DO NOT miss this place and it’s food!

    An efficient experience that reminds me of a mess hall. As a vegan there aren’t many options. However, one can make a complete meal out of it. The 3 stars are from the perspective of a vegan. The service is good and non intrusive. However, the loud ambience does take me back to a mess hall. There are 2 options dumpling wise for vegans and both are just ok. They do not have a flavor or feel innovative. For the price I understand. Did not venture into the noodles. The herbal tea was very subtly flavored and for the most part made me feel like I was paying $5 for hot water. The cucumber is exquisite. We have been here before where I was a vegetarian and spent more time trying more of the sides. Unfortunately, this might be a place we visit as a last resort or when right on time, if we ever do. However, it seemed the clientele around us seemed to be having a good time.

    Oh my goodness , this place was amazing! We got a vast variety and everything was amazing. The garlic chili soup with wonton and the hot and sour wonton were the shining star in my opinion. Soup dumplings were fantastic. I will definitely be back!

    They only accept visa or discover so come prepared. 10/10 would recommend The food was amazing and quick. Service was good, they thoroughly clean the tables and seats between customers. Only down side is I got full quick and didn’t have room to really eat all my food. I wanted more and can’t wait to come back again.

    This place is only 3 minutes walk from Chinatown Light Rail Train. We booked our table in advance and we had no wait time at the entrance. You wrote your order on the menu leaflet. The waiter picks your list from you and the ordered food comes very fast. We tried soup dumplings, pan fried bans, pan fried dumplings and noodles and they were all delicious.

  • 5/5 Megan A. 2 years ago on Google
    My Seattle friends and my husband and I make a habit of coming here every time we visit. Best noodles, dumplings, steamed buns and everything in between. Some of the finest Chinese food you can find.

  • 5/5 Chinmaya B. 2 years ago on Google
    Amazing place to have authentic Chinese food in Seattle. The dishes served were delicious and the service is pretty fast. We tried the vegetable and chicken dumplings, and few of the dessert options available. Would highly recommend this place while in Seattle

    Dough Zone has a great variety of choices on their menu! Loved their soup dumplings and buns, also they had fast and friendly service! Glad I stopped in!

  • 5/5 Kaustubh M. 1 year ago on Google
    We dined for lunch today and ordered the zucchini shrimp dim sum, xiao long bao (pork and pork + crab) multiple orders, spicy beef pancake roll (absolutely fantastic), chicken wontons steamed, mala spicy noodles and finally for our kiddo we got the noodles with minced pork. Everything was bang on and delicious. Worth the prices that are pocket friendly. Ambience is family friendly however the overall neighborhood seemed sketchy if you go after hours. Overall a positive experience

    The restaurant is bright and spacious and the menu has so many options for everyone and anyone to get something they enjoy! I loved the fact that the menu has pictures for just about every dish so you know what to expect when ordering. The food came out quick and it was very responsibly priced. The employees were very polite and helpful throughout the meal and the most important thing, the food was DELICIOUS. The soup dumpling were our favorite!

    Delicious!!! We are in love with the dan dan noodles and the spicy wonton. My husband got takeout for my birthday and it was just so good! I loved their packaging!

  • 5/5 Rebeca A. 8 months ago on Google
    Great food, fast service, nice ambiance. We walked in added our name to the waitlist and we’re seated before the time they gave us. FYI you can add yourself to the waitlist via Yelp instead of doing it at the restaurant. When you sit down they give you a pen and paper with the menu. You fill it out with your order and they bring you your food. Everything was fresh, delicious and came out quick. And the prices for the food was really good. We had the Q-Bao Buns, the Pork and Shrimp Pot Stickers and the Dan Dan noodles. I recommend all of these.

    Quick service. Reasonable price. Decent vegetarian options. Yelp table booking recommended during peak times. But limited street parking with paid parking lot behind the restaurant. The only issue I had was with the man at the entrance who was rude when he asked us about our booking time.

  • 5/5 Kallen T. 1 year ago on Google
    Really delicious dumplings. You can get super full off of a few plates and the wonton dishes were really great. We also bought some extra noodles and those were very spicy and savory. Always happy to come back to Dough Zone for more dumplings.

  • 4/5 Lisa H. 6 months ago on Google
    There is an unfortunate smell when you enter into the hallway that leads to the entrance of this restaurant. Could definitely lose your appetite. But I'm so glad I did not! This was my 2nd time dining at Dough Zone. My first time at this location. The service is very quick and the food is delicious! I would strongly recommend the chicken & vegetable wonton soup! I also enjoy the soup dumplings. They're divine. Quick service and reasonably priced.

    The food was okay, the best thing was the pig ear. Dumplings were ok, wonton soup was not good the soup had no flavor and wonton was over cooked. Not sure if I'll come back.
