There is something so fulfilling about savory bite-sized dumplings. These little dough pockets stuffed with vegetables, meat or seafood are a warm welcome during our grey, cold winter. The annual Portland Dumpling Week is celebrating dumplings for its 11th year with specials throughout the city.
Portland Dumpling Week is February 7-15, 2025. There are more than 50 Portland restaurants putting their own fold on dumplings. Some will offer traditional flavors while others embrace dumpling fusion by serving up a new take on the savory dining experience.
At most restaurants, the price for each plate of dumplings is $15 or less. Dumplings are available for dine-in, takeout and delivery depending on the restaurant.
Here are the Portland Dumpling Week participating restaurants.
