Editorial reviews from the web (4)

These "always busy" dumpling dispensers offer a "yummy" namesake specialty that's fried or steamed while you wait; the barely "utilitarian" setups feature minimal seating and service is "insouciant" at best, but they're hard to beat for a "fast, filling", "dirt-cheap" nosh.

A collision of taste and affordability, Vanessa's Dumpling House serves up Beijing-style street food to in-the-know diners with a craving for buns and a good deal. Fresh and handmade, the steamed and fried veggie or meat dumplings titilate with pillow-esque texture, the sesame pancakes with crisp and greasy indulgence and the boiled seafood with, well, healthfulness. Take note: four dumplings...

Hardly a restaurant, this sliver of space in the part of Chinatown that bleeds into the Lower East Side makes and sells fabulous dumplings. These little parcels are notable not only for their impossibly crisp bottoms and luscious pork-and-chive filling but also for their unbeatable price-to-tastiness ratio: Five cost just $1. Compared with that deal, a triangular slice of puffy, golden sesame...

Lines push out the door on an otherwise deserted east Chinatown block for this neighborhood street food fave.

Super duper cheap dumpling hole in the wall!

Strolling around Chinatown one day, my interest was piqued by the hustle bustle at a neat looking dumpling house. That’s how I discovered Vanessa’s Dumpling House on Eldridge Street. Vanessa’s works like a well-oiled machine and is run by an all women crew – love that!

"Chinatown holds may itself, chief among them is VANESSA'S DUMPLING HOUSE, churning out trays upon trays of handmade dumplings of tasty variety, and offering them on a menu with other Chinese food staples (scallion pancakes, roast buns, noodles, bubble teas) and all of it for seemingly impossible low, not-of-this-city prices."

Tips about this business (6) view all

Where to Sit: Don't expect to nab any of the extremely limited barstool seating in the back (which comfortably seats only six to eight people). To-go is a must here.

Know Before You Go: Take a quick peek into your to-go bag, especially during peak hours when items can get lost from your order.

What to Drink: Fresh, hot soy milk is prepared daily (sugar optional); otherwise expect only bottled sodas and water.
