My daughter and I love dumplings and heard the dumplings were homemade. We had the beef soup dumplings, dumplings with chili oil and the katsu chicken sandwich. The soup dumpling was the tastiest I’ve ever had. The katsu chicken delicious. Service was great, super friendly and reasonably priced considering everything is homemade. Will definitely go back to try more dishes.

This restaurant is a hidden gem in the heart of downtown Worcester. Located on the corner of Main and Pleasant street, I was able to walk here with two young kids when my ride was late. There’s free, street parking available in front of the restaurant and plenty of seating for the size. The atmosphere is casual and kawaii, my kids were fans of this style. The food was fresh, hot, and very good. What made this restaurant especially nice is the little greeter–the owners’ child–who meets you with a friendly smile inside. It was our first time eating here and we were welcomed like family. “多謝” for the hospitality.

Recently established family-owned restaurant in downtown Worcester offering contemporary Asian fare. Their menu should have a broad appeal to people who enjoy simple dishes (from snacks to complete meals) well prepared. The buttermilk chicken sandwich is really good and goes well with their creamy coleslaw on the side. Take out, delivery service and indoor seating are all options. Metered street parking on Pleasant Street your best bet if you’re planning to drive. Physically handicapped accessible. Lovely family — support this local business!

Let me tell you about Yume Dumplings! They were delicious, fast, and friendly! A nice spot to sit down and enjoy a nice hot Thai tea. These aren’t actual portions as I kept forgetting to take pictures from being too excited to try the food first.

The food is so good. I went for the first time on a Friday and couldn’t wait to go back. I went back on that same Monday. Their food is tremendous and packed with serious flavor. Their service is also very good. They are so friendly and engaging. They walked me through their menu and other things I might like or I should try. Definitely recommend this place to anyone.

Okay, so this place has been my go-to since I've discovered them. I have my sticker collection as proof and this isn't even all of them. I am finally taking the time to stop and give them the review they deserve. For those that work downtown it's like a 5-8 minute walk from any direction. Right around the corner on pleasant. The family that runs it is amazing and the food slaps every time. No matter what you're in the mood for. I usually get the huge chicken katsu sandwich for a cheap quick grab, or the bulgogi bowl or the fried tofu with curry or the dumplings dude there are so many. Anyways today I got the wonton noodle soup for the first time - hits so hard! Perfect for this cold weather. For those wondering, they serve the broth separately from the noodles for take out. Total plus- because I hate bloated noodles. Also their food keeps you full without feeling ick, ya know? Anyways- I highly recommend. Really is like Asian Fusion, try their rice noodle rolls with peanut & soy sauce- they can make it spicy too.

This place was great! Stopped in before a show at The Palladium and will definitely be back. The Japanese style fries were SO GOOD! I'm not 100% sure what's on them, but they are addicting. The soup dumplings and Siu Mai were also excellent and tasted fresh. The tiramisu latte was really good as well.

So glad to find this hidden gem in Worcester! The food is superb and I feel welcome by the staffs when I walked in (there's an adorable little "self promoted manager"). Every dish I ordered were so delicious and I can't wait to return for more tasty food. Highly recommend this place to everyone!
