Tucked away on Eldridge Street there is an amazing dumpling shop called Vanessa's Dumpling House! They have a nice variety of dumplings (including vegetarian options) that are all reasonably priced. Most options are under $10 and they are very filling! I recommend getting the dumplings pan fried with chili oil - it's the best combo and I am a little obsessed :)
P.S. They have frozen dumplings for sale so you can stock up your freezer with tons of dumplings! This was a life saver for me as a college student 🤫...More

i finally made it to the trending vanessa’s dumpling house on the uws 🥟 after hearing about the crazy lines forever… but my friend & i went on a random thursday for lunch & there was basically no one there!!
we ordered the peking duck pancake sandwich 🦆 & the egg pancake sandwich 🍳 — GET the duck. sooo good. packed with juicy meat with crispy outside + crunchy veggies 🥬🥕, super flavorful, & only like $10?? literally so filling 🤯. the egg pancake was also delish, cooked perfectly, but a little light if you’re really hungry 😅
also tried the chicken pan-fried dumplings 🐔🥟 & ngl… kinda a letdown. the skin was super thick & they didn’t have much flavor. skip those if you go 🚫
everything was under $15 💸 so it’s perf for a quick lunch or easy takeout 🏃♀️🥡....More
