Hidden Dumpling House is getting ready to roll into Land Park for its third Sacramento-area location, owner Danni Kan said. The growing mini-chain, which first launched in Elk Grove and later opened a Midtown spot, is set to bring its handmade dumplings to the southside neighborhood, and Kan said she is excited to plug into Land Park's built-in crowd of locals and park regulars.

Kan confirmed the expansion in a Feb. 4, 2026, report from the Sacramento Business Journal, describing Land Park as the next target for the brand. That story also notes the move will mark Hidden Dumpling House's third brick-and-mortar in the Sacramento region.

According to Hidden Dumpling House, the concept started in Elk Grove before expanding into Midtown. The separate site for Hidden Dumpling House Midtown lists that location at 2801 P St., with both locations showing hours and a compact menu built around handmade dumplings, noodles and rice bowls.

Why Land Park?

Land Park wraps around the 160-acre William Land Park and includes popular draws like the Sacramento Zoo and Fairytale Town, which means a steady stream of families and visitors most days of the week. The Land Park Community Association notes that the area's mix of long-time residents and park traffic helps support casual spots such as dumpling shops, cafes and other quick-service options.

Menu and what to expect

On its site, the restaurant says, "We pride ourselves on our handmade dumplings and vegetarian and gluten free options you wouldn't normally find in a Chinese restaurant." That focus on house-made wrappers, along with a tight menu that leans on dumplings, noodles and rice bowls, has helped the chain build repeat business in Elk Grove and Midtown, where customers order both dine-in and takeout.

The Sacramento Business Journal report did not include a firm opening date for the Land Park location, and Kan has not yet shared a construction schedule or grand-opening timeline. For now, fans will have to keep an eye on permitting records and the restaurant's own channels for a projected debut.

For Land Park neighbors, the new outpost is set to add another low-key dinner option within easy reach of the park and zoo. The expansion also signals that small local chains like Hidden Dumpling House still see plenty of room to grow in Sacramento's neighborhood dining scene.
