Zen Dumpling Menu – Prices, Locations & Full Guide
If you’re searching for the Zen Dumpling menu with prices, want to see the full Zen Dumpling menu with pictures, looking up the Zen Dumpling menu Brandon, Zen Dumpling menu Orlando, Zen Dumpling menu Jacksonville FL, or Zen Dumpling menu Waterford, wondering about the Zen Dumpling drink menu and milk tea options, or trying to find Zen Dumpling near me — this is the complete 2026 guide.
Zen Dumpling is one of the fastest-growing Asian restaurant chains in Florida, earning some of the highest customer ratings in the state for any Asian dining concept. With a 4.8 out of 5 Google rating and over 788 reviews at the Orlando flagship alone, the brand has built its reputation one dumpling at a time. The focus is on authentic Chinese dumplings — XLB xiaolongbao soup dumplings, pan fried dumplings, steamed dumplings, bao — alongside Sichuan noodles, hand-pulled ramen, boba milk tea, and a clean, welcoming atmosphere that feels worlds away from generic strip mall Asian dining.
The menu is built around one organizing principle: every dumpling is made fresh, every wrapper is hand-folded, and every soup dumpling is filled with real broth that bursts when you bite. That approach has made Zen Dumpling a destination — not just a takeout option — for Central Florida and Jacksonville-area diners who want the real thing.
Zen Dumpling Tapas — Starters Menu With Prices
Cold tapas and hot starters — perfect for sharing at the table while your dumplings are being prepared. The tapas section is broader than most Florida dumpling restaurants attempt.
| Item | Price | Details |
|---|---|---|
| Spicy Cucumber Salad 🌶 | $7.95 | Cold, tangy, chili-oil dressed cucumber |
| Celery and Beancurd Salad | $8.95 | Cold vegetarian tapa |
| Edamame with Salt | $6.00 | Steamed, lightly salted edamame |
| Spring Roll (Veg) | $4.95 | Crispy vegetarian spring roll |
| Sweet & Sour Baby Ribs | $12.95 | Crispy fried pork ribs, sweet-sour glaze |
| Stir Fried Green Beans 🌶 | $10.95 | Wok-fired, chili-seasoned green beans |
| Beef Pancake Roll | $11.95 | Crispy scallion pancake wrapped with sliced beef |
| Scallion Pancake | $8.95 | Classic Chinese flaky scallion flatbread |
| Zen Chow Beef | $12.95 | Braised sliced beef with house seasoning |
| Zen Chili Wontons (6 pcs) 🌶 | $9.95 | Pork wontons in chili oil and sesame sauce |
| Sticky Rice Shumai | $9.95 | Glutinous rice in shumai wrappers |
| Chicken Karaage | $9.95 | Japanese-style fried chicken bites |
| Braised Pork Belly Bun | $9.50 | Soft steamed bun with braised pork belly |
| Braised Beef Bun | $9.50 | Soft steamed bun with braised beef |
The Zen Chili Wontons ($9.95) are the single most-reviewed tapas item — six pork wontons in a house-made chili oil and sesame sauce that is complex enough to be the best thing on some people’s table that night. The Scallion Pancake ($8.95) is the old-school classic: thin, flaky layers with the faint sweetness of scallion, best eaten immediately while still hot. The Spring Roll (Veg) at $4.95 is the lowest-priced starter on the entire Zen Dumpling menu and the right call when you want something crunchy to open the meal without a large spend.
The Beef Pancake Roll ($11.95) — scallion pancake wrapped around sliced braised beef — is the tapas table’s most filling option and one of the more unusual items on the menu. Regulars order it as an add-on rather than a separate starter.
Zen Dumpling Soup Menu With Prices
| Item | Price |
|---|---|
| Hot & Sour Soup 🌶 | $7.95 |
The Hot & Sour Soup ($7.95) is a simple, classic addition — tangy, spicy broth with egg ribbons and tofu. Multiple reviewers specifically mention ordering it alongside the XLB soup dumplings as a broth-on-broth combination that works perfectly. At $7.95, it’s an easy add to any table order.
Zen Dumpling Pan Fried Dumplings Menu With Prices
Pan fried dumplings at Zen Dumpling are served in portions of 6 pieces. The bottoms are crisped golden on a flat pan; the tops stay soft and tender — the textural contrast that distinguishes good pan fried dumplings from mediocre ones.
| Item | Price (6 pcs) | Details |
|---|---|---|
| Beef Pan Fried Dumplings | $11.95 | Ground beef filling, crispy bottom |
| Shanghai Dumplings | $11.95 | Pork filling with broth inside, crispy bottom |
The Shanghai Dumplings ($11.95) are a sheng jian bao — the pan fried cousin of the XLB soup dumpling. Unlike steamed XLBs, Shanghai dumplings have a thicker wrapper, a crisped bottom, and a smaller amount of broth inside the filling. They’re a different eating experience from the XLB: heartier, more filling per piece, and better suited for takeout since the thicker wrapper holds up during transport.
Zen Dumpling Steamed Dumplings Menu With Prices
Steamed dumplings come in portions of 6 pieces with dipping sauce. These are the most delicate version of dumplings on the menu — thin wrappers, clean filling flavors, and no frying to compete with the filling’s natural taste.
| Item | Price (6 pcs) | Details |
|---|---|---|
| Cabbage & Pork Dumplings | $10.50 | Classic pork and napa cabbage |
| Chicken & Mushroom Dumplings | $10.50 | Ground chicken with shiitake mushroom |
| Shrimp & Pork Dumplings | $11.50 | Premium blend of shrimp and pork |
| Vegetable Dumplings | $10.50 | Fully vegetarian, seasoned vegetable filling |
The Shrimp & Pork Dumplings ($11.50) are the premium steamed option — the shrimp adds bounce and sweetness to the filling that pure pork doesn’t provide. At $1.00 more than the other steamed options, they’re the best upsell in this section.
The Vegetable Dumplings ($10.50) are the best choice for vegetarians — lightly seasoned, naturally sweet from the vegetable filling, and served with the same quality wrapper as all other dumplings at Zen Dumpling.
Zen Dumpling XLB — Soup Dumplings Menu With Prices
XLB stands for xiaolongbao — the Shanghai-style soup dumpling that is Zen Dumpling’s signature item and the reason most first-time visitors come. Each order comes with 6 pieces. You pierce the thin wrapper gently with a chopstick, let the hot broth flow into your spoon, add a few drops of black vinegar and ginger, and eat in one perfect, burning-hot, deeply satisfying bite.
| Item | Price (6 pcs) | Wrapper |
|---|---|---|
| Soup Dumpling with Pork | $12.95 | Classic white wrapper |
| Soup Dumpling with Chicken | $12.95 | Classic white wrapper |
| Soup Dumpling with Crabmeat & Pork | $13.95 | Classic white wrapper |
| Soup Dumpling with Shrimp & Pork | $13.95 | Classic white wrapper |
| Soup Dumpling with Beef | $13.95 | Classic white wrapper |
| Truffle Pork Soup Dumpling | $15.95 | Black wrapper |
| Signature XLB Sampler (6 pcs) | $15.95 | Color-coded wrappers, one of each |
The Signature XLB Sampler ($15.95 for 6 pieces) is the definitive first-time order at Zen Dumpling — one of each flavored soup dumpling in a single bamboo basket, with color-coded wrappers so you can tell them apart. Customers consistently describe this as the item that converts skeptics into regulars.
The Truffle Pork Soup Dumpling ($15.95) uses a black-dyed wrapper and contains pork filling infused with black truffle — the most premium single-flavor option on the Zen Dumpling menu. Reviews are split between people who find it the best thing they’ve eaten and those who didn’t connect with the truffle-in-soup-dumpling format. The sampler is the safer call for first visits.
The Soup Dumpling with Pork and with Chicken (both $12.95) are the entry-level XLB options — the cleanest, most approachable versions of the format if you want to experience the broth-and-filling combination without the premium additions.
How to eat Zen Dumpling XLB:
- Place the dumpling in a large spoon
- Pierce the top with a chopstick to release steam (prevents burning)
- Let the broth collect in the spoon
- Add a small amount of the ginger/black vinegar sauce provided
- Eat the whole dumpling in one bite — or two careful bites if needed
Do not attempt to eat XLB with a fork or bite directly from chopsticks. The broth will burn you and go everywhere.
Zen Dumpling Bao Menu With Prices
Bao at Zen Dumpling comes in three formats — pan fried, steamed, and bite-size pan fried. All are made with a soft, pillowy leavened dough and filled with seasoned pork.
| Item | Price | Details |
|---|---|---|
| Signature Bao Pan Fried (5 pcs) | $10.95 | Soft buns, golden crispy bottom |
| Signature Bao Steam (5 pcs) | $10.95 | Classic steamed soft bao |
| Pan Fried Bao Bites (8 pcs) | $9.95 | Smaller, bite-size pan fried bao |
The Pan Fried Bao Bites ($9.95 for 8 pieces) are one of the best-value items on the Zen Dumpling menu — 8 pieces at $9.95 vs. 5 pieces for $10.95 in the standard Signature Bao. They’re bite-size, which makes them the better option for takeout and delivery since smaller bao hold their texture better than large ones after transport.
Zen Dumpling Noodles & Rice Menu With Prices
| Item | Price | Details |
|---|---|---|
| Dan Dan Noodle 🌶 | $11.95 | Sichuan-style, ground pork, chili oil, sesame paste, scallion |
| Zha Jiang Noodle | $11.95 | Beijing-style, fermented soybean paste, cucumber, ground pork |
| Braised Beef Noodle Soup 🌶 | $15.95 | Thick noodles, tender braised beef, rich dark broth |
| Braised Pork Belly Noodle Soup | $15.95 | Thick noodles, slow-braised pork belly, rich broth |
| Stir Fried Noodle | $13.95+ | Wok-tossed noodles with choice of protein |
| Fried Rice | $13.95+ | Wok-fried rice with choice of protein |
| Broccoli & Onion (stir fry) | $14.95+ | |
| General Tso’s Chicken 🌶 | $14.95 | Crispy chicken, sweet-spicy General Tso sauce |
| Mongolian Beef 🌶 | $15.95 | Sliced beef, green onions, savory brown sauce |
Items marked + have protein/customization options that may affect the final price.
The Dan Dan Noodle ($11.95) is the non-dumpling order that gets mentioned most in Zen Dumpling reviews — Sichuan-style ground pork over wheat noodles with chili oil, sesame paste, and scallions. It’s a slow burn of heat, nutty richness, and sour/savory balance. The Zha Jiang Noodle ($11.95) is the Beijing-style companion: less spicy, more earthy, with fermented soybean paste sauce, cucumber, and ground pork — a completely different flavor profile at the same price.
The Braised Beef Noodle Soup ($15.95) is the most filling single dish on the entire Zen Dumpling menu — thick wheat noodles in a deep, dark braised beef broth with tender chunks of slow-cooked beef. It’s a full meal that requires no additions and is the correct order if someone at the table doesn’t want dumplings.
The Mongolian Beef ($15.95) is the most-reviewed Noodle & Rice item on Yelp at the Jacksonville location — described consistently as savory with a “subtle kick.” It’s a reliable crowd-pleaser for guests who want a familiar Chinese-American flavor profile alongside the more authentic dumpling-focused menu.
Zen Dumpling Drink Menu — Milk Tea Series With Prices
The Zen Dumpling drink menu is a focused milk tea and specialty tea lineup that complements the food without competing with dedicated boba shops. All drinks can be customized for ice level and sweetness.
| Drink | Price |
|---|---|
| Classic Milk Tea | $5.75+ |

| Passion Fruit Tea | $5.75+ |
| Matcha Latte | $5.95+ |
The Brown Sugar Milk Tea with Boba ($5.75) is the most-ordered drink at Zen Dumpling — a natural fit with the brown sugar and soy sauce flavor notes that run through the XLB section. The Matcha Latte ($5.95) is the highest-priced drink on the menu and a strong standalone choice: earthy, slightly bitter, and a clean contrast to the richness of pan fried dumplings and braised noodle soups.
The Thai Milk Tea ($5.75) brings a spiced, sweet-cream-on-orange-tea format that pairs well with the spicier dishes — the sweetness moderates the heat from items like the Dan Dan Noodle and Zen Chili Wontons.
Beverages
| Item | Price |
|---|---|
| Ramune Japanese Soda | $4.00 |
| Fiji Water | $3.00 |
| Sparkling Water | $4.00 |
Ramune ($4.00) — the iconic Japanese marble-sealed soda — is the non-tea beverage standout. Available in flavors including original, melon, and lychee at most locations.

Frequently Asked Questions — Zen Dumpling Menu 2026
What is Zen Dumpling?
Zen Dumpling is a Florida-based Chinese restaurant chain specializing in fresh-made dumplings — XLB xiaolongbao soup dumplings, pan fried dumplings, steamed dumplings, and bao — alongside Sichuan noodles, ramen, fried rice, and a milk tea drink menu. Currently operating in Orlando, Brandon, Altamonte Springs, and Jacksonville.
What are XLB soup dumplings?
XLB (xiaolongbao) are Shanghai-style soup dumplings: thin wrappers hand-folded around a mixture of meat filling and solidified pork gelatin. When steamed, the gelatin melts into hot broth that fills the dumpling. You bite in carefully to release the broth. Zen Dumpling offers XLB in seven flavors — pork, chicken, crabmeat & pork, shrimp & pork, beef, truffle pork, and a sampler of all six.
How much does Zen Dumpling cost per person?
A typical dine-in visit with one XLB order ($12.95–$15.95), one additional dish (tapas or noodles, ~$9.95–$15.95), and one drink (~$5.75) runs $28–$38 per person before tax and tip. Ordering multiple dumpling types for the table is the most common format, which brings the per-person cost down for groups of 3+.
Does Zen Dumpling have vegetarian options?
Yes. Vegetarian items include: Vegetable Dumplings ($10.50), Spring Roll (Veg) ($4.95), Edamame ($6.00), Spicy Cucumber Salad ($7.95), Celery and Beancurd Salad ($8.95), Scallion Pancake ($8.95), Stir Fried Green Beans ($10.95), and all milk teas.
Does Zen Dumpling deliver?
Yes, via DoorDash and Uber Eats at participating locations. Note that soup dumplings (XLBs) are fragile for delivery — pan fried bao bites, noodles, and fried rice hold up better.

Zen Dumpling Menu 2026 — Final Take
Zen Dumpling in 2026 is doing something genuinely rare in Florida’s Asian restaurant market: making authentic XLB soup dumplings from scratch, consistently, across multiple locations, at a price point that doesn’t price out casual diners. The Signature XLB Sampler at $15.95 is the defining order — six color-coded soup dumplings, each with a different filling, in one bamboo steamer basket. The Dan Dan Noodle at $11.95 is the non-dumpling item that converts first-time visitors into regulars. The Brown Sugar Milk Tea at $5.75 is the drink that belongs with both.
With four active Florida locations in Orlando, Brandon, Altamonte Springs, and Jacksonville — and multiple more coming in 2026 across the state — Zen Dumpling is positioned to become Florida’s definitive dumpling chain.
