2023-11-21 21:02:55Haven’t been able to come for a while and man, still delicious little nuggets of joy! Love these dumplings and the multilayer green onion pancake. Even my girls (7&9) loved the multilayer green onion pancake and the chicken and corn dumplings. They ate the whole dozen of them between them and a piece of the pancake each.I ordered the 3 flavor dumplings (pork shrimp and chives) and my mom got the fish and chives.The service was fine, though with only one person working the front she was super busy. We are patient though and got everything we ordered and ate while we were there at one of the 5 small tables.Ambiance isn’t amazing because it’s so small and a little cramped but the dumplings are definitely worth it. The multilayer pancake is delicious and crispy as well.I wish we lived closer but sadly I live in Knoxville so I can only come when I visit family. If you love dumplings, you need to visit the House of Dumplings. They sell frozen dumplings you can cook at home too.

2023-10-01 21:43:24Additional Edit: Still one of my favourite places to visit when Im in town. Just the perfect place to slowly drink some tea, and enjoy some perfect dumplings!Came here last year with a friend, and when Im in the area I try to come here as much as I can. I really love the dumplings here, they are really authentic and have really good flavour. There are other things other than dumplings if dumplings are not for you! The family that runs the place here are always super friendly. Definitely worth your money here!

2023-11-03 01:29:53Mom and pop place, it seems. Very casual and unpretentious. The dumplings were great. We also had black mushrooms, they were delicious. Scallion pancakes and fried tofu - pretty good too. Service was very friendly

2023-08-31 00:17:2020 or more years now I believe that I have been coming here. Every time the food and service has been phenomenal. Not a single complaint in all these many years speaks for itself. I live within walking distance so one can imagine the frequency with which I frequent this restaurant and they are an absolute delight every time. By the by, Chinese food in general is not my favorite however this place certainly is and continues to sway my opinion towards the good. Fortunately House of Dumplings exists. Unfortunately they have ruined my chances of being happy with any other Chinese food restaurant. I’m still thinking this is a good conundrum being that House of Dumplings does indeed exist😋.

2022-06-17 00:25:36Nice hole in the wall Chinese food known for obviously their dumplings. Next time we want to try their honey walnut shrimp. Small place won’t be good for big groups. We will definitely be back since the quality for price was good.Salt and pepper tofu: perfectly crispy light and fresh tofu - yummmShanghai soup dumplings: delicious! Perfect amount of soup and meat was tastyDumplings: we got the shrimp pork and chives. Tastes good but too much wonton skin for my liking. Would order more soup dumplings instead next time

2023-07-11 13:44:36I got the chicken and corn dumplings and the brown noodle. Both were decent, while the filling for the dumplings was fine, it seemed a little over steamed. Was kinda what I was expecting, but had higher hopes for the dumpling quality. This is a small location and the restaurant floor feels quite cluttered, but it’s understandable given they don’t have much space in the building. Staff was friendly and service was quick.

2020-02-03 20:03:56I sat in the car waiting a half an hour for this place to open, and it was worth the wait.The menu doesnt have any pictures, but you shouldnt worry, as there are several pictures on the wall. Also, dont feel shy about asking the waitress for recommendations. She gave us a whole review of whats popular for each section of the menu. Very friendly.The food was good. You can tell the dough for the dumplings is all made in-house. All necessary dipping sauces are on the table for you to assemble your own concoction.The place is a bit small, but I believe they have to-go orders if you cant get a table.

2020-10-07 22:11:54Dumpling House is always been incredibly good not so much fun now not being able to dine in. Staff is always very helpful and suggestive. You can never go wrong with the shrimp and pork combination dumplings and the pineapple fried rice. Online it was very simple one of the easiest place to order online food was ready to pick up as when they stated. I make this a usual stop at least once every 3 weeks

2023-07-25 15:13:51I googled Chinese food and stumbled upon this little gem. I arrived 30 min. prior to closing for take out. Ordered veggie chowmein, shrimp stir fry and veggie rolls. The food was not greasy, well seasoned and yummy! It took me back to the 70s in SF Chinatown! Ill be coming back! Owner is really nice and friendly.

2023-06-08 20:30:22I literally searched for this place on Google again just to write up a review. Best jiaozi dumplings Ive had in the Bay Area so far, and the people who run the restaurant (seems to be a mom and pop type establishment) are super friendly. They speak both Chinese and English, and they will enthusiastically recommend items on their menu if you tell them what you like.The jiaozi dough is excellent and filling is tasty and generous. A pet peeve of mine is jiaozi filling that has sugar added resulting in a sweet taste, so I was relieved and happy to find that the pork and napa cabbage dumplings I tried were savory, without any sweetness.For dessert, have very delicious taro baozi (buns) - if you like fresh taro paste, you wont be able to just eat one, I promise you ;)If dumplings are not for you, they also have noodle soups and other dishes.Finally, you can buy bags of frozen dumplings for a very reasonable price too. Bring cash for that.Only downside is that its a small shop, so not good for big groups.Will definitely be back to try their other dumplings and items!
