Dumpling Kitchen & Bar

Signature colorful soup dumplings and owner-created vibrant handcrafted drinks shine.

Dumpling Kitchen & Bar offers an inviting way to build a Chinese meal around dumplings, with enough variety to make sharing part of the fun. Dumpling Kitchen & Bar at 1125 Burlingame Avenue organizes its menu around several styles of Chinese dumplings and buns. Xiao long bao, steamed dumplings, potstickers and pan-fried buns each offer a different preparation, making the menu suited to an order that mixes soft steamed wrappers with crisp pan-fried dishes. Dim sum and noodle categories expand the selection beyond the restaurant's namesake specialty. Soups include wonton and hot-and-sour options, with appetizers, snacks and desserts available to complete the meal. A separate vegetarian section gives diners another part of the menu to explore, and frozen dumplings are also listed for those interested in preparing them at home. For a dumpling-focused meal in downtown Burlingame, the variety of cooking styles is the central draw: a table can combine buns, dumplings, soup and noodles into a shared spread.
