We love Full Steam! Every week there are favorites and some new additions too. Such delicious food, friendly and incredibly fast service.

Here in Santa Cruz there are not many great options when it comes to Asian style cuisine. I had heard from word of mouth that this place opened relatively recently and was really good and not just by Santa Cruz standards. My partner and I both got Full Steam Bao and two Ramen bowls. It totaled almost $70 without tax or tip which hurt but I figured if it tasted great it would be worth it – everything tasted terrible. The ramen was flavorless and the meat was hard as was the order of bao. To say I was disappointed would be an understatement after reading the reviews and hearing what people had mentioned about this place. Only upside was how kind the hostess was in taking our orders. Betty’s Noodles remains the sole decent ramen/pho restaurant I’d be willing to go to in this area 2/5.

We have been eagerly waiting for an eatery like Full Steam Dumpling to enter the food scene in Santa Cruz. Andy’s delicious panAsian dishes are made with flavorful organic, farm fresh ingredients, and hit the spot every time! Fingers crossed there are enough patrons in this town who value their quality to support the continued growth of their business. We’d love to see them open a restaurant. We would be there all the time

Expensive but very very good! Great flavor on the ramen and the gyoza. Great ambiance both inside and outside (live band was also there). For sure will be back!

One of the best Manhattans happens here. Excellent atmosphere, wonderful bar. If you like spicy, salty food this is perfect for you.

I’m no ramen expert but I know good food when I taste it and this was excellent. My husband and 1 year old son loved it too. In addition to the ramen, we got the incredible gyoza. The atmosphere is also so friendly, inviting and totally family friendly.

Ramen was $20 and not very hot. Nothing very special. Eggs were good. Broth was Watery, and under seasoned. Bowl of ramen was no where near full. for that price?. Dumplings had too much carrot. Over hyped or they need to work on doing quantity.

The presentation was good but flavor is severely lacking. Mapo tofu was overly spicy and bland at the same time. Also tried pork buns and potstickers and dumplings which were also lacking. Also expensive

Among the best Asian food in town with a really nice vibe. We’ve tried the dumplings and the ramen (and more!!!), it’s always a good time with 10 out of 10 flavor!

People are really uncool for the fact this place doesn’t have a higher rating. This is seriously the best Ramen and dumplings in town. It’s raining and I wanna cry bc they’re closed.
