About What A Dumpling
Korean Dumplings Since 2006
What A Dumpling is a shanghainese in Niles, Illinois. It is listed at 801 Civic Center Dr, Niles, IL 60714, which places it among the local businesses of Niles that residents and visitors turn to when they need this kind of service close by.

Chinese restaurants in the United States range from steam-table lunch counters to white-tablecloth Cantonese seafood halls, and most fall somewhere in between: a laminated menu, a lunch special board, and combo plates priced a few dollars below the dinner menu. Ordering by number off the menu is normal and speeds things up, especially at takeout counters. Family-style ordering, where a table shares several dishes with rice rather than each person getting an individual entree, is standard at sit-down spots and usually cheaper per person. Many neighborhood restaurants are cash-preferred or charge a small card fee, so it is worth asking or checking the door before you order. Delivery apps cover most areas, but calling the restaurant directly is often faster and avoids the markup.
Hours are published for 7 days a week. The most common schedule is 10:30 am–7:30 pm. Hours in the United States do change around federal holidays and long weekends, so a quick call before a special trip is sensible. You can reach What A Dumpling at (847) 583-2938; calling is usually the quickest way to ask about availability, prices or directions.

It’s inside an H Mart, but the food is delicious. Definitely a stop anytime I come up this way. We had the dumpling soup and non-spicy Ramen and the Bao! So good!

If you’re checking the reviews to see which spot is best to eat at I recommend you give this place a shot. I’ve tried almost every spot outside of the chicken spot in the front and I have to say that what a dumpling is by far my favorite. Reminds me of my grandmas and mother’s food. Homemade dumplings and the broth tasted great. It’s a complete different texture compared to the frozen ones. The Noona that worked there was great as well and I observed that all the customers that ordered from there were satisfied as well. When you see empty plates and bowls you know that’s a good sign. Support this business! :) I got the traditional one. No 7 I believe.

The employee that took my order was super nice. However, I guess I didn’t look carefully when I ordered. I got the triple dumpling soup that comes with no noodles. The triple dumpling soup comes with 3 traditional, 3 beef, and 3 kimchi. Dumplings were well made and did not taste like the frozen ones from a grocery store. In fact, the dumplings were very juicy and the fillings were perfectly cooked. It was very expensive for what I received. It’s about 3 for me, I would have liked to see at least a bowl of white rice accompany my meal. Since, the older woman was very kind. I’ll give this place a 4. Just remember, to order another dish if you do decide to get a dumpling soup.

Stopped at H-mart today with 2 friends and we all ate here for lunch. Overall it was really good, I had the galbi-tang and my girlfriend had a spicy ramen with dumplings in it. Both were very good, mine came with rice and kimchi which was appreciated. I do wish the sliced egg shown in the example was included, though. I didn't get a lot of beef, either, mostly just bone. But the kimchi was excellent, probably the best I've had. The broth mixed with the rice at the end was delicious. Galbi-tang is great if you're not feeling well and it's full of vitamins. Everyone enjoyed their food. Saw someone get a whole order of dumplings and they looked incredible, too.
