About This Place

Nestled in the heart of Lowell, MA, Tasty Dumplings brings an authentic taste of Chinese comfort food that keeps locals and visitors coming back for more. Specializing in dumplings and Chinese noodle dishes, this cozy eatery offers a menu overflowing with rich, savory flavors and expertly crafted dishes that celebrate tradition and bold tastes.

At Tasty Dumplings, the star of the show is undoubtedly their dumplings. From the delicate, soup-filled Crab and Pork Soup Dumplings to the satisfyingly crispy Pork Fried Dumplings, each bite promises a burst of fresh, well-balanced flavors. The Xiaolongbao — steamed to perfection — exude a warm, savory broth inside a thin, tender wrapper, creating a truly memorable sensory experience that lingers long after you finish. Fans of pan-fried varieties will relish the Pork and Cabbage Pot Stickers, with their golden, crispy bottoms and juicy fillings.

If noodles are more your craving, their Braised Beef Shank Noodle Soup and Beef Shank, Tendon, & Tripe Noodle Soup offer hearty, slow-cooked depths of flavor and tender meats that melt in your mouth. For lighter options, the shrimp and chicken stir-fried noodles, packed with fresh vegetables and a perfect touch of seasoning, provide satisfying texture and taste without weighing you down.

Complement your meal with handcrafted sides like the flaky, golden Scallion Pancakes, or dive into warming bowls of Hot and Sour Soup or the subtly fragrant Wonton Soup. Tasty Dumplings also shines with dishes like General TSO's Chicken over Rice and the subtly spicy Spicy Mini Hot Pot, elevating classic Chinese-American favorites to new heights.

    Stumbled upon this restaurant while visiting Lowell. The dumplings are so good. In fact, probably the best I've had. They're a nice size, cooked well and tasty. I will be back. Can't wait to try the soup dumplings.

    Went here with some friends and had such a great time! The food is super authentic and full of flavor. And they were playing Jay Chou in the background. If you’re craving real Chinese food, this place is a must!

    The soup dumplings and tofu rice are the best, and my daughter always orders the vegetable fried rice. The food options have always been excellent. The service is good and location easy to find.
