Bafang Dumpling

Marvin Ortiz

If you’re on the hunt for a culinary gem, let me tell you about the incredible experience my wife and I had at this restaurant. We weren’t sure what to expect, but we decided to take a chance—and it did not disappoint. From the moment we walked in, the atmosphere was calm and inviting, setting the perfect tone for an unforgettable meal. Let’s talk about the food—simply phenomenal. One standout was their beef soup—rich, flavorful, and truly a dish to savor. It’s one of those meals you’ll dream about long after the last spoonful. The dumplings were perfection, bursting with flavor, and the potstickers were just the right balance of crispy and tender. Every bite was a treat for the senses. And it doesn’t stop there! Their drink menu is a must-try. I went for the Soy Tiger Boba, which was creamy, sweet, and refreshing. My wife opted for the Iced Lemon Black Tea, which was perfectly balanced and refreshing. These drinks were the ideal way to end an already amazing meal. As if all this wasn’t enough, the prices are surprisingly reasonable for the quality and portion sizes. Whether you’re craving bold flavors or simply looking for a cozy spot to unwind, this restaurant hits all the marks. We highly recommend this place for its fantastic food, relaxing atmosphere, and unbeatable value. If you’re in the area, don’t miss it—it’s a hidden treasure that’s worth every bite. Delicious food, great service, and unforgettable flavors—this spot is a must-visit!

Counter service dumpling restaurant from Taiwan, and it serves some real comforting food. We tried the signature dumplings, the signature pot stickers, corn chowder, and the chicken and corn pot stickers. The best dish is the signature pot stickers that came with the right amount of crisp and juicy fillings. The dumplings are not bad, but lacking an oomph. The only thing we won't order again is the corn chowder, it tasted very much like a canned soup.

Great place to go for Taiwanese noodle soup and dumplings. They also have the tasty corn chowder or hot n sour soup good for cold evenings.

I’ve tried Bafang dumpling in different locations in LA area. I personally enjoy the Gardena location the best because of its clean, bright, spacious dine in environment, friendly staff, free easy parking and the food quality. The pork chop and beef noodle soup are the best. We live 40 minute away and it is totally worth the drive, their oolong milk tea w/ boba is very good (and I am very picky about boba milk tea because I am from Taiwan).

Great place to be for a quick bite with decent prepared food

This is the Gardena outlet of the Taiwanese fast food Bafang Dumpings. I just had their one dozen steamed dumplings and hot and sour soup combination. Dumplings are exactly same taste as the other outlet in Torrance. One really good dish here is the beef noodle soup which is really excellent. Hot and sour soup is using white pepper powder as the spice so it is quite tolerable. This location has many other restaurants near by so it will not be busy. Plenty of parking in this strip mall.

This Bafang Dumpling is right opposite Tokyo Central and is easy to find. The store is quite large, but there are not many tables and chairs. It feels very spacious and you can enjoy your food slowly here. The dumplings taste very good, no different from other stores in the same group, maintaining a consistent standard. The noodles are also very elastic, and the price here is not expensive. It is very cost-effective to enjoy a leisurely lunch in this store.

My first time coming here. I ordered the Mala Beef Noodle Soup. The broth was flavorful and complex but light. You can taste the spices, but not overpowering. Loaded with green onions and cilantro and with just the right amount of kick. The noodles were firm, had good consistency, perfectly cooked. Loaded with big, chunky pieces of beef. My only complaint was the ratio of noodles to broth. I wish they had given more noodles. I also tried the dumplings with cabbage and pork. It was very juicy, and moist. They have different sauces available to build your own concoction. Service is prompt. The dining area is very well maintained and sanitary.

A friend recommended this restaurants. I found one of their locations near by and decided to try it out. Great location with plenty of free parking. Restaurant is rather large with a few indoor tables and bar seating. It's clean but the staff didn't clean the tables once guests finished their meals. There are two large garbage bins and a rack near the restroom where guests can dispose of their trash and place the trays and bowls. Service is quick, but mediocre and semi friendly. The corn and chicken dumplings were ok. I'm pretty sure I can find frozen ones that are just as good if not better. $6 for six pieces is a bit pricey. The same can be said about the corn and chicken pot stickers. The Bafang Taiwanese Beef noodles were very good. The beef was flavorful and tender. Unfortunately, there were only two pieces in the giant bowl. The broth was good and the noodles were perfectly cooked and flavorful. It's enough to feed two two people. So $16.75 is reasonable. The chili pepper fried chicken was very crispy and flavorful. Probably the best item I enjoyed. $8 is reasonable. The atmosphere is relaxed with late 90s/early 2000 music playing. Very enjoyable.

Love their dumplings & potstickers as usual! This location is relatively new and pretty clean when I visit. I ordered ahead so didn't have to wait too long after arriving. Really recommend their SOY AWESOME (add boba), it's not too sweet and comes with a lot of toppings! Tried their fried chicken for the first time today, I would say the flavor profile is pretty good but a bit dry/ overcooked. Hot and sour soup was a bit off today for some reason.. so not sure about that.

Great service and the side dishes were delicious. However the dumpling itself was a bit disappointing because the time when I get mine it’s already cold inside. The sauces were great and it’s one of the good places to try authentic Taiwanese potstickers.

Nice little dumpling restaurant (counter service). I really liked their dumpling and soup combos. The pot stickers were also tasty. Oh, their boba drinks are delicious!

I had the Bafang Dumpling's Combo 1, which includes 12 Signature Potstickers and Hot & Sour Soup. As someone who hasn't had Bafang in quite some time since coming to the US, I was pleasantly surprised to discover that they had made their way here! It helped satisfy my Taiwanese food cravings. The potstickers were undeniably delicious, bursting with flavor. If I had one small suggestion, it would be to fry the potstickers a bit longer to achieve that perfect crispy texture. However, even without the extra crispiness, they were still quite enjoyable. A standout highlight of the meal was the garlic sauce they provided. I highly recommend trying it with the potstickers!

wonton soup -LOVE (if you like cilantro) 10000/10 Regular potstickers - 10/10 Signature dumplings - odd taste 1/10 spicy wonton - thick paste curry like sauce 3/10 Sesame Noodles -0/10 (threw it out) it was less like sesame and more like peanuts and super dry and stuck together.

I’m not sure if it was an off day for them but these are the blandest dumplings I’ve had in the past year. The meat lacked any flavor at all and I almost think they completely forgot to add salt or flavor. However, the signature noodles were good and so was the soup. The restaurant was clean and service was quick.

Not worth it. Staff won't let you use the outlets. Food portions are small and potstickers were bland. The only positive was that it took 10 min for my food to be ready. For 15 dollars, you can find something better next door.

Wores service in a world 👎👎👎👎 I came here 10:00am today Cashiers was talking with me so fast Like rap. We have asked to her say slow and one more time. If you really don't like your job. Please find some other jobs. The food is so good.

Ordered at 4:57 and food wasn’t even ready at 5:30. I saw cold pork chop and other dishes waiting to be served- cold when I went to check on our order. All orders wasn’t ready at all. Shocking thing was, it wasn’t even busy here!!! You get penalized for ordering multiple orders here. They will not tell you your order is ready until all orders are made, meaning some food is super cold and some food will be hot. That’s the policy they have at Bafang Dumpling. So I ate warm pot stickers and it was soggy and they had to re-do the pork chops because I told them that I cannot eat cold fried food. The only dish that was hot was their soup and I can clearly taste the massive MSG. Meaning it was beyond normal amount. The management here doesn’t care if they serve cold or soggy food to customers. They don’t care if dine-in customers waits more than 30 minutes. Was food worth waiting more than 30 minutes for a cold soggy food? ABSOLUTELY not!!! They need to step up taking multiple orders here instead of penalizing customers. Don’t bother coming to this location. You will have better experience dining elsewhere. My first time dining experience was awful and upsetting because I wasted my time waiting for mediocre food.
