Practical advice for getting the most out of your visit to Mr. Yip Dumpling
Order Extra Soup Dumplings Early
Order multiple steamer baskets of the xiao long bao immediately, as diners consistently find the thin-skinned, soup-filled dumplings so satisfying they reorder a second serving mid-meal.
Flag Staff for Mid-Meal Requests
While service is warm and polite, during busier moments staff can be busy on their feet, so proactively signal or flag a server when you need water or additional dishes.
Take Advantage of Easy Local Parking
Take advantage of relatively accessible local parking along Military Road and nearby side streets to enjoy a relaxed lunch or dinner without high-density dining congestion.
