Citysearch

The Scene – There are exactly three small tables at this tiny hole in the wall, but for food lovers on a budget, it's heaven. Five juicy, tender dumplings ring in at $1, so two people can eat themselves silly for less than $10. The two condiment bottles on the table provide all that you need: a tangy blend of vinegar and soy sauce in one, and spicy chili sauce in the other. – – The Food – The fried or boiled dumplings come in either pork or veggie versions and are handmade, with a fragrant dose of chives. But don't overlook the other tasty Shanghainese treats: da bing…

Cheap and good dumplings!

by sihui at Citysearch

I wanted some cheap thrill that would fill me up for dinner. I read about this place on yelp. However, the address given at yelp is 106 Mosco St. So I hope this is the same "Fried Dumpling" store. Anyhow, I bought 60 dumplings for $10 and brought home my prize to cook in two different ways: boiled and fried. Both cooking methods yielded delicious dumplings with juicy interiors. The filling is pretty good, though not as good as those you get in the full service dim sum restaurants...but hey, what do you expect for the price? Definitely would recommend this place for anyone looking for frozen dumplings.

  • Pros: Cheap, tasty and satisfying

Huge Dissapointment

by surfguido at Citysearch

Have to agree with the last review - I went out of my way to check this place out based on top cheap eats reviews and all these postings and this was the biggest dissapointment - this is your basic frozen dumpling fried - nothing special - cheap filler and not probably not all that good for you - maybe some cardboard boxes in the filling (they actually did this in China) but I couldn't really tell. There are so many places in NY that actually make the dumplings in front of you - and some for the same prices in Chinatown.

  • Pros: Cheap Filler
  • Cons: Unhealthy, not that tasty

Don't waste your $1

by lisalisa0812 at Citysearch

I went out of my way to go to Fried Dumpling at the recommendation of Citysearch reviews. It was disgusting. The dumplings were below average and greasy. The place was so dirty it was horrible. So many other places to go and have better dimplings and a cleaner space. I regret wasting my $1.

  • Pros: Nothing
  • Cons: Dirty and dumplings were greasy
