| - Okay, I REALLY wanted to like this place! I am always looking for somewhere to get fresh, flavorful dishes...but I just felt like this was a bit of a miss.
I ordered the Seasonal Harvest noodles with the add on of 4 haus dumplings. The noodle dish is vegetarian and changes depending on the veggies available. I am A-OK with vegetarian dishes, but not flavorless ones. This seriously tasted like plain noodles in water with carrots and bok choy. That's it. There was no seasoning whatsoever. The veggies were fresh and nice...but I was glad that I had gotten the dumplings(which were decent, but not amazing) to supplement. The melon green tea was refreshing, and sadly, my favorite part of the meal.
The man got the pork potstickers which, again, were okay but not amazing.
I agree with the comment that prices seemed high. The noodles were around $9 with the mini order of dumplings an additional $3.50. Considering the fact that I left half my noodles(and not because I was full), it was spendy.
I would like to go again and try the bao, and maybe a different noodle dish. Like I said, I REALLY wanted to like it. I hope to get the chance to update with an improved review in the future.
*And as far as the review from C.L. about ordering non-dumplings from a place called "Dumpling Haus", I don't think that a place called the "Chicken Shack" has an excuse for having a crappy steak, if they choose to put a steak on the menu.
If dumplings are the only thing you do well, then maybe you need to just stick to dumplings.
