Naomi N.Naomi N.: Fast, cheap, and yummy! Get the fried pork dumplings, a beef pancake and a side of kimchi. While there are many dumpling spots in Chinatown, Vanessa's is consistently the best.

Zi L.Zi Lin: The egg and chive pancakes are the best. Get en quick before they sell out. :-)

inna k.inna kats: Mung began soup is gross, steamed veggie dumplings no good also. Noodles w/sesame sauce (#37), pork buns, and pancakes are great. Kimchi's barely spicy and great addition to any meal. Do It!
