Dragon House

Amazing food and great service!! I was here with my husband on a Sunday for lunch and got seated immediately. We ordered Wonton in chili sauce, Shrimp and pork juicy dumplings, Stir fried hand pulled noodles with chicken and twice cooked pork. Everything except the pork tasted amazing, pork was not as soft as expected. Ordered Ube crepe cake for dessert and I loved it. Overall great service and amazing food!

We went during lunch on a Tuesday and it was absolutely a packed house. We were surprised that we got seated so relatively quickly (about a 5 minute wait.) The server was frantic and you could tell that she rushing us to order, so thankfully we already took a gander at the menu before hand, but her hurrying us was understandable due to how crowded it was, but she was very, very friendly nonetheless. (Be sure to look at the menu before visiting so that you know what you want when you order and don’t hold up service!) The food was absolutely delicious and despite the madhouse it was, we will definitely return! ❤️

The Dandan noodles were hot and delicious. The chicken was super tender with the broth having a nice balance sesame taste. The handmade noodles were chewy and unbroken. Portion sizes are large on main dishes. The hot and sour soup was some of the best I have had. I visited mid-afternoon on Saturday and service was excellent.

Dragon House in Southlake has some truly standout dishes! The juicy dumplings were packed with flavor and cooked perfectly. I also enjoyed the Peking duck — it was delicious and tender, though I personally would’ve liked the skin to be a bit crispier. Still, the flavor was on point! The highlight for me was the overall atmosphere and service — elegant, clean, and welcoming. However, I was a bit disappointed with the Dan Dan noodles. They came out plain, just noodles without the usual bold sauce or toppings I expected. Overall, Dragon House has great potential with some amazing dishes, especially if you love dumplings or duck. I’d definitely go back to try more from their menu!

Food was delicious, it was great atmosphere too. Beef was absolutely delicious I would definitely recommend it. Honey walnut shrimp was sooo goooood and a huge portion, couldn’t even get a chance to take a picture of it!! LOL!!! The only thing that the dumplings weren’t the best. Vegetarian dumplings were stuffed in spinach i assume but didn’t taste good for our taste. Noodles were reallyyy good liked them but i don’t know if they were anything special. But maybe the noodles would fit your taste if you prefer more plain spices to full of spices type of food.

First timers and we loved everything! We had a few dim sum items: lobster & shrimp shumai, soup dumplings, and pork buns. We also ordered the pineapple, bacon, & shrimp fried rice, the half order of Peking duck, and their combination stir fried noodles! I love that their noodles are made in house fresh daily, everything was a 10 out of 10. Last but not least, we can’t say enough nice things about our waitress Matti! We’ll be asking for her next time we visit😊

I have been waiting to do a review of Dragon House for a while now. This is some authentic Chinese food. The juicy soup dumplings are unparalleled. People come from far and wide for these particular steamed dumplings. See the videos for how they are made and look. The Yangzhou fried rice is my favorite. They use char siu pork (red tips) and in very generous amounts. The soups and egg rolls are perfect and delicious. Nothing is overly salty or saucy. The vibe and atmosphere is busy but under control. Food gets out hot and fast….thats a big deal for me. The service is smart and friendly. Our favorite server Lynn always greets us with a warm smile even if we get pushed to another section. She always makes sure to say hello and ask how our family is doing. She is a gem and a major reason why we enjoy coming! Take this from someone who has had many authentic Chinese food experiences…Dragon House will not disappoint! Come for the great food and stay for the dessert streamed buns!

Outstanding food!! Hand tossed noodles are very good, Singapore noodles, orange chicken was very good (and I am picky). Did not enjoy the Dan Dan noodles as they are a peanut sesame sauce with noodles. Everything else we tried was good. Great environment although it gets a little loud. Highly recommended! Glutten free dishes available.

The food and service are the absolute BEST! Our favs are the Happy Family and the Hand Pulled Noodles. They take a bit longer because they are hand made, but worth the wait! Peter is great, very friendly and attentive.

Wow. I've finally found my Chinese spot that reminds me of the great NY Chinese I grew up with. We got the Soup Dumplings, General Tso Lunch, and Hand Pulled Noodles. Flavor of everything was fantastic, however given the area not as hot or spicy as I'm accustomed to, but ask for Chilli Oil! Service was on point. Atmosphere was PACKED for a Tuesday at Lunch. Chicken was perfectly crispy...Dark Meat. As it should be!!

This place was super busy on the weekend. I went here solely for pork dim sum (recommended) and let me tell you, it just hits the spot! Exactly as advertised - juicy and bursting with flavor. Plus, when you add their chili oil and soy sauce vinegar, it takes the taste to a whole new level. Can't wait to go back for more! Next on my list? Definitely trying out their handmade noodles and exploring the rest of the lunch menu.

First time here. Decided to try because they had hand pulled noodles and was not too far from Arlington where we needed to go later. Glad we went to this Chinese restaurant. Just ordered the Mongolian beef and hand pulled noodles with chicken. The Mongolian beef was tender and flavorful. Just a the right amount of sauce and not too salty. The hand pulled noodles were the gem though. Perfectly cooked and chewy with the right amount of flavor. The chicken was white meat and texture was delicious. Apparently there was a sign at the door that read they had Peking duck daily until they are out, which I will have to try next time. I wished this place was closer to where I live in Plano/Frisco, but definitely worth another trip to Southlake.

I saw it on TikTok and bookmarked it. OMG... I don't know if it was a viral hit or if it was that I went on Chinese New Year... but it was crowded!!! I ended up sitting at the bar... but it was perfect for me! I ordered dumplings, and noodles both hand made fresh! They also have the full cooked ducks hanging in the kitchen. This place is authentic! The customers are a mix of Chinese-Americans so you know it'a going to be as close to the real deal. I definitely enjoyed expanding my horizons and the authenticity of a real Chinese meal! The service was also GREAT!

Wow! Great place, food and staff! Took family here for lunch yesterday. My son order Mongolian beef lunch special. It came with a wonderful tray of appetizers and the Mongolian beef was savory, spicy but not overpowering with just a bit of grilled flavored. Well balanced and not typical. Great value, and a must try! My wife had spicy beef noodle soup and I had Dan Dan noodle. Both were made with hand pulled noodles that we watched being made. Fantastic! The noodles were amazing. If owners are dialed into this review, it would be great to offer a hand pulled noodle class! The Chef makes it look so easy and expect his talent only comes from many years of making them, but sure would be fun to try in a class format! Relaxing setting and well worth a visit!

Walnut shrimpe have really been enjoying Dragon House! You will find friendly attentive service, tasty fresh food, extensive menu and clean environment. Some of my favorite dishes are their soup dumplings and green beans. Oh and their walnut shrimp, the shrimp are big and tasty! Dim sum is tasty too! You must try their pan fried or steamed pork dumplings (veggie, shrimp, chicken) or pork buns with hot broth. Watch them make their hand pulled noodles in back of restaurant. Prices are a bit on the high side, but their portions are large. If you order appropratly, you will have food to take home , no problem:)

Probably the most authentic & delicious Chinese restaurant I've been too but the waitlist is dated. Went on a Saturday with a group of 4 and it was about a 30 minute wait. The wait list is just pen & paper & someone calling out your name. The line was out the door and some people missed their name a couple of times. Very dated method of checking in. It

The service was top notch. There was a 20-minute wait around 6 pm when we went, but it went super quickly. The juicy dumplings were delicious! The beef soup with hand pulled noodles was fantastic, as well as their orange chicken and hunan chicken. We will definitely come back!

He loves me, he loves me not... this is my relationship with Dragon House. I've been here at least a dozen times in the past few years when I want Chinese, sometimes it's good, sometimes it's not. I eat it and wonder is this really the best of our area??? No way, it can't be, so I try another restaurant thats a bummer and come back to Dragon House. I prefer the flavors of their beef dishes over chicken but concur with other yelpers about the not so hospitable service. For the area, and comparing to other Chinese restaurants in the immediate area I give 4 stars. Comparing to Chinese I've had in my life it's a hard 3 star for flavor and price point. Recommend coming for the lunch menu M-F and see if you like it. We recently went on a Sunday and after tax/tip was a $90 lunch meal with food not tasty enough to take for leftovers- yikes!

Very good food. Each of us were satisfied and we had vegetarian, seafood, beef and chicken entrees. All well made.

The food was absolutely delicious. Flavorful, mouth full of Chinese flavors. The shrimp and pork dumplings are to die for! I regret not ordering a second round. The scallion pancakes were sooooo good, tried to save some for my Mongolian beef but I couldn't. Speaking of which, the Mongolian beef was mouth watering. I've been stalking this place for an entire year and I finally made my way. Service is friendly and quick. The ambiance is cute, that of a hole in the wall Chinese place in NYC, only difference this hole in the wall is an entire building. Totally worth the wait, visit, and my money!!! I'll be back whenever I'm in Dallas for work.

Honestly more like a 3.75/5 cause I'm very picky on my food and overall service, but this place is up there for good food in the Southlake area. It's far from me so I wouldn't necessarily go out og my way. The spicy beef noodle soup and crispy pork buns are my top favorite. Called ahead around 6pm to check for wait time, guy who picked up the phone was not the most friendly, no hello and no thank you. He was very short and curt with the call... no reservations. Must be in person. Arrived around 7pm on a Wed night. The restaurant was very busy and there was a 15-20 min wait for 2 ppl. The hostess who greeted us was much nicer than whoever I had on the phone. We got seated soon and ordered right away since I was so hungry. Food breakdown: - Spicy beef noodle soup: This came out first! Noodles were perfection for me. Broth was very flavorful and the right amount of spicy for me, I was sniffling but not dying. If you can't handle spice, I don't recommend. Beef was nice and tender, broccoli was still crunchy, just how I like it. - Crispy pork buns: so so good the flavor profile on this was exactly what I wanted. It was so juicy too! The bottom was crispy b/c of the sesame seeds but I would've liked it more crispy. - Shanghai pork belly: on the sweeter side but pork belly was very tender and had soaked up the sauce really well. This dish came with white rice. A bit more expensive for what it was but still good. - Schezuan green beans: these came out last :( which was very unfortunate. It was also overcooked and softer than I'd like. Definitely had better. Our server was very sweet and attentive. It seems like she knew the kitchen forgot or was running behind with the green beans and made sure to let us know she was checking on it. It came out at the end of our meal unfortunately.

Dropped in on a Sunday afternoon after a recommendation from a friend to try the dumplings and hand-pulled noodles. It was a packed house and about a 25 min. wait for a table of 3, but we were seated relatively quickly. Service was swift and food came out as it was ready, in no particular or logistical order. We ordered edamame and cream cheese Rangoons to start, and the Rangoons came out first but the edamame didn't show up until the middle of our meal. Overall, the noodles were pretty solid. It's fun if you take a peek and watch them hand-folding dumplings and pulling noodles! Everything was fresh and flavorful. The only thing we didn't finish or enjoy too much were the vegetable dumplings. The honeycombed pork ones were great - juicy and pan-fried just right. The dandan noodles were a little bit too peanut-y for my taste, but they were good. The stir fried noodles were our favorite! Overall it was a great visit. Definitely a bit steeper in pricing but I would imagine that's due to the popularity, hand-pulled/handmade reputation, and location being Southlake. I would revisit if I were in the mood for dim sum and noodles!

Still sooo good and one of my favorite dumplings spots! Came here on a cold night, and ordered all my favorites. Got soup, steamed dumplings, and spicy wontons.

I went looking for some decent Chinese food and found I found it in Southlake. The restaurant is comfortable and clean, with a beautiful aquarium by the front entrance. I ordered the chicken and shrimp with cashews and some sweet and sour soup. I ordered it to go because it's the end of the week and I'm tired of cooking. Haha Service was immediate and friendly. It took less than 20 minutes, and I left with hot and fresh food. They have a ton of orders for pick up, so I could've ordered online or via phone. Everything was delicious. The soup is amazing - very flavorful. I have a lot of leftovers, and I'm m more than fin with that. It looks like I won't have to cook tomorrow - woohoo!

Never seen this place before empty. Despite a full house, we were sat quickly and received our food quickly. Honey Walnut Shrimp is the winner every time. Everything is served family style. Don't expect an intimate dinner though. This place is pretty tightly compact so you'll be very close to other tables.

I wish we could do a 3.5 star review because this hits on the middle. We've been told by numerous friends how much they love this place. The parking lot is always packed. The Yelp rating at the time showed 3.9 so we were skeptical. None the less, we went at lunch and had a lunch special. At the time, lunch specials are $11-15. The lunch special comes with a cup of soup with fried wontons, a small egg roll & a small bowl of edamame as your appetizer then rice (for non noodle dishes). I had the Pad Thai and my husband had spicy tofu and pork. Both were good. The Pad Thai to us was not traditional, not spicy as indicated on the menu (added chili oil) but was good. The spicy tofu and pork was a spicy pork gravy with tofu chunks (silken tofu) that you could put with rice. This had really good flavor. They do make their own noodles and has a person out for customers to watch noodles being made. They have vegetarian/vegan options & beer and wine, as well as a bar. We called ahead and asked if they were BYOB which we were told we can bring our own bottle of wine but there's a $20 corking fee. We had a $8 glass of Pacific Rim Riesling that was very good and on Vivino rates 4.1 stars-- which went perfect with our spicy dishes. The over all appearance is clean with (obviously) Asian inspired decor, but was very very loud. if you want it quieter, it may be better to sit at the bar. Would we return, no but we are glad we tried them.

I've been to dragon house about twice now, each time was super delicious! I would say it is pricey for Chinese food, but the service is great and it has a friendly ambience. What I highly recommend trying is the Dim Sum! It's a 10/10, everything else is delicious, but if you go just for the dim sum you'd leave with a happy belly!

The food is always good and it is always very busy but the service is always good as well

OMG this place is so good. My family and I went two in a week. The handmade noodles so tasty and have a good texture. The juicy dumplings are the best. Well, all of the dumpling are very good. The shrimp and pork dumplings are terrific as well. The honey walnut shrimps is unlike anything I've had before. It all was good. The service is good. The server, who I had both time and both times missed her name, was polite and very helpful with menu selections. The line was long each time and well worth the wait. Don't walk... run to this restaurant!

We were so psyched to try Dragon House out on our trip to Dallas. We went for dinner on a Sunday evening and didn't realize the flood of people that wait in line to get in here. Put our name in and we're told about an hour wait. Just as I was starting to watch the staff make dumplings, which was pretty cool- We lucked out and since we were willing to eat out on the patio, they sat us immediately. (104 degrees with the sun blazing - it was warm! ...but we got sat immediately) Unfortunately as busy as they had been that day, several of the dim sum dishes we wanted to order were already sold out. So we improvised the order and tried some items we normally wouldn't have ordered. The restaurant was clean. The rest rooms were just average average. The service was quite good considering how slammed they were! We'd try them again but would recommend going when it's not so busy.

Talk about good Chinese food.. this is the PLACE to eat!!!! Fresh, delicious, well seasoned & tasteful. Service was on point, very friendly servers, ambiance is nice nothing fancy very comfy. I wish they had several locations. Definitely will come back.

Pretty pricey but solid food! The best Chinese food available in the area for sure. It's packed as locals love it but we asked to sit outside and the manager (I think) was super kind and said yes. Our waitress was so sweet and patient. We split 3 ways and each of us spent 50$

Dragon House was really great, the service was quick, the food was good, and the restaurant was clean. I definitely need to go back to try more, but the Dim Sum portion of the menu was by far my favorite. The soup dumplings were so good it made the other good food feel like it was lesser (Honorable mention to the Wonton in Spicy Chili Sauce). I highly recommend trying the dumplings and some appetizers! This is definitely the best Chinese food I've had in the Dallas area. The atmosphere left something to be desired, but they maximize seating and serve more customers. It seemed like they could handle larger groups, but a group of 2-4 is the sweet spot for quick seating. I think overall this is a must try spot in Southlake especially if you enjoy Chinese food!

Today I stopped to have lunch at Dragon House in Southlake, after hearing many folks rave about how good the dumplings are and their hand made noodles. Wow! The dumplings by far were better than I expected. They taste amazing! My favorite by far is the Soup Juice dumpling, that's a must order. I than order hand made noodles with beef. The noodles are definitely authentic and had a great natural hand made taste. The beef was good but definitely a win on the noodle flavor. I strongly recommend anyone near or 30 minutes away from southlake to make a stop here, just make sure you bring a few people so that you can order many dumplings plates and get the full experience. Price is in the higher end, but it's definitely worth the value based on the quality of the food and let's not forget how superb the customer service is. They are super attentive and let's just say your water or drink will never get close to the bottom. Finally parking is tight so you may have to park, but hey worth it for the food quality.

My friend had never tried soup dumplings so we went to the closest to us which was @dragon_house_southlake. We had no idea that they had recently had a surge of customers due to a viral tiktok and the place was PACKED with a line an hour before they closed for lunch. We were still seated within 15 mins and service was attentive. We ordered the walnut shrimp, hand pulled noodles and pork soup dumplings. The quality of the dough wasn't as consistent as my previous visit (a little thicker dumpling and noodles) but I imagine it was due to being so slammed during their whole lunch. Still the food was fresh and flavorful and definitely had a great meal.

We came to celebrate the Lunar New Year The place is busy, lotta locals and Chinese families- always a good sign. Nicely decorated. Friendly staff and crowded but feels open with all the windows.

You cannot go wrong with any of their dumplings. I liked how the soup dumplings wrappers were thin and had plenty of soup inside. My personal favorites were the pan-fried pork buns and sautéed string bean and eggplants. The pork buns were crispy on the bottom and filled completely with pork. The eggplants were well seasoned and went well with the rest of the dishes we ordered. I can't wait to come back and try their hand pulled noodles and more of their veggie and seafood dishes!

I was excited to try this place, but will not be returning. The service was awful and food wasn't that great. We had to ask for napkins after they set the utensils on the table. Then we had to ask for more napkins. She forgot our tea. After 20 mi items of waiting we asked for it and then when she brought it, it wasn't hot. After we got our scallion pancakes we had to wait 5 minutes to ask her for vinegar for it. Then had to remind her again for it 5 minutes after that. After waiting 30 minutes for our entrees, she came out and said the dumplings were sold out. Our last hope was the that the hand pulled noodle s we're going to be as good as the review stated. I'm here to tell you they are unfortunately not that good. Do yourself a favor and go to Fortune House in Irving.

Great traditional Chinese food great ambience. Hand pulled noodles. Large portions family style. Very friendly service

Service was excellent! We got seated immediately on a Saturday so that's a plus. The restaurant was very clean when we were there. The food is excellent! Best eggplant I've ever had hands down. The hot and sour soup was so good too. Honestly if I wasn't so full I would've came back here again to eat. Definitely a must when you're visiting Dallas! Don't forget to try the Peking duck!

DH's Peking duck it the pe-KING of Peking ducks (insert 53 drool emojis here). Highly recommending putting their delicious duck in and allll around your oral orifice!

Loved this spot! The soup dumplings were delicious and the staff was very friendly. We tried several different things on the menu and enjoyed all of it. They also put on a show when making the noodles by hand. Very cool.

I knew it! These guys have no competition for 20 miles! My previous worries have come to fruition and it can be a bit of a wait to get a table during the weekend diner hours. This is THE BEST (not just my favorite but the very best) Chinese food in the area with competition beginning out in Addison and Dallas. Try the hand pulled noodles. You can't go wrong, if you like noodles.

I do recommend this restaurant. The ambience Was very nice! But I do think it is way overpriced. The food was great, but nothing spectacular. There are plenty of affordable options at other establishments in neighboring cities.

Dragon House is probably the best Chinese food in the area. Now with that being said, I've found service to be a little hit or miss, and they don't keep the restaurant cool enough (in my opinion). The food though, oh man the food. The "juicy" dumplings (called soup dumplings most everywhere else) are fantastic. I could probably get 3 orders of those and eat them all by myself and consider that a meal. The Peking duck is also amazing- and for anyone who may be adverse to eating duck, the pork Peking style, served with the wraps and onions- is a just as tasty substitute. The beef flat noodles are really good as well. The orange chicken has real pieces of orange peel in it.... this stuff is legit. Side note- the fish tank in the front has some very lively fish in it! They were chasing each other around last time we went in. Makes waiting on food (if ordering to go) quite entertaining.

Overall, I like this place, but I'm disappointed that their Szechuan food isn't spicy. I think they are more Shanghai traditional, which is not spicy at all. I came during their lunch for the special and I love that it includes a soup, egg rolls, and edamame. Although, all of their lunch special meals are too sweet for my taste. I also visited during dinner and their peking duck was delicious. I would go back for that but they do run out. The Szechuan Boiled Beef had a great flavor, but again, not spicy at all. We also waited a long time for the dish to come out. They did give us complimentary egg rolls for the wait which I appreciated.

It's one of the better Chinese restaurant spots in the area. Your next closest would be in Arlington. This was my first time going and it was packed on a Sunday. It can be family style so you just share the plates. The appetizers were the chili oil dumplings and fried tofu. The chili oil dumplings were SO good! I would recommend getting 2. I hate the tofu- it reminded me of eating funnel cake at the state fair with the sweet fried taste. Wouldn't recommend.. We ordered the honey walnut shrimp, bangkok noodles, fried rice, and some of the dumplings. I'd do the dumpling again but the honey walnut shrimp had a burnt taste to it. The walnuts were burnt and the flavor seeped into the shrimp. The noodles was OKAY. I would probably have switched to the peanut noodles. Overall, it's was fine. I think maybe we just got a bad batch of food.

So. Freaking. good. Saw this on TikTok and had to give it a try, so glad i did! Everything we ordered was amazing. Watching them/listening to them making the noodles was awesome. They even gave my son a dumpling dough bunny and flower! Great service and great food. Do not miss this place, go but go easy or the line will be out the door.

It was very, very crowded and it was hard to walk around the restaurant. The dumplings were good. I had the sampler of the dumplings and I had the lo mein combination. It was good. The soup was good as well. The portions are decent size. I just wish that seating was more comfortable and it was less crowded and noisy. This is definitely not a date night spot.

It's nice to see more traditional Chinese food now in Southlake. Came in on a busy Friday night for dinner and luckily was able to snag a booth. It's a pretty big place too. We ordered the half Peking duck, cucumber salad, soup dumplings, hand pulled stir fried noodles. I enjoyed the duck the most although I hated the crepes that came with it. They were dry and fell apart while wrapping. The duck itself had good flavor and the skin was nice and crispy. I also appreciated that they served cucumber along with the scallions on the side. Everything else was just ok. Service was authentic if you know what I mean. They have food runners dropping off dishes at your table without saying one word. Our server was actually nice even though she dropped off the check without asking if we wanted desserts, which we did. There were people waiting in line to be seated by the time we left. Overall, I would only come back when craving duck, but I would not wait in line for it.

My girlfriend wanted to try this place. We rolled in about an hour before closing, ordered fast and they delivered! Loved the food and the staff were friendly and helpful. Absolutely will go back!

I enjoyed my crispy tofu and pan-fried dumplings. They were fresh and tasty. I sat at the bar because the restaurant was packed. The bartender was attentive and friendly. I hope to be back soon.

The food was amazing, if you want filling Chinese food, take your family here! The orange chicken was so much I think it could've been shared between four people honestly! Every bite was full of flavor and we will be back. They get very busy on a Saturday. The wait around 5:00 was pushing an hour.

Started with the egg rolls. They came out within a minute of me ordering. Was not hot and were very bland. No way these are fresh and for sure were frozen or just reheated and kept sitting there. Asked for chili oil for the egg rolls. Never got it. Only 4 tables seated in the place with tons of workers. Surprised by the bad service start. Sent the egg rolls back and was given hot ones. Better but flavor was bland. The soup and veggie spring roll were next from my lunch special. The veggie spring roll was mushy on inside and terrible flavor. But the hot and sour soup was delicious. Would have just ordered a big bowl of that. Next I had the kung pao chicken with fried rice. It was good. Definitely more traditional which I like with less sauce and more of that wok fired flavor with fresh Sichuan peppers. Nothing to write home about but good and hit the spot. Finally I tried the hand pulled wide noodle stir fry with beef. Now that was amazing. Should have skipped everything else in favor for that. Definitely easy to see why people come here after that. If you come here stick to their winners in anything hand made like the dumplings and hand pulled noodles.

The food was amazing. Our server was Maddy and she helped us navigate the menu and her suggestions did not disappoint. Will absolutely come back in the future!!!

Okay, so the dumplings were amazing and the green beans, I might not be a very adventurous eater so duck was not it for me. The man who makes the dumplings had amazing customer service, but the waitress was not nice.

We ordered many items and ate family style. Each dish was better than the next. Well worth the drive for this meal.

Very salty and oily beef rice noodles and kung Pao shrimp. Not worth the prices. Food taste and quality is always a hit and miss.
