One of the best spots in Nashville for dumplings! The food is fresh, flavorful, and perfectly made. The place itself is cozy and inviting, great for a casual meal or a chill hangout. The staff are friendly and attentive, which just adds to the overall good vibe. Definitely a go-to if you’re craving dumplings.

The dumplings here are phenomenal. I would definitely recommend the pork & chive, chicken & coriander, curry beef & onion dumplings. Thre fruit tea, milk tea and Boba is wonderful also.

We were crazing dumplings and came here. Best dumplings I had in awhile. We tried the boba as well and it was good. They do add sugar to it so ask for no sugar if you don’t want it too sweet!

I’ve gone here so many times but this lately their dumplings have had no filling. The picture I added is just the Dumpling skin. So sad because this place use to be so good. Just stick to the pan fried ones if u want it to be good.

We ordered pan-fried veggie dumplings and steamed spicy pork dumplings. Both dumplins were fresh and had very basic flavors. We asked for dumpling sauce and was told that they only had the malt vinegar, soy sauce, and chili oil that was on the table. None of these combinations were suitable to me as a replacement for a traditional dumpling sauce. Overall, I wish I had tried other local options. I would not come back again.

Got to visit today and the food was delicious! The Asian cucumbers were amazing after a hot afternoon. Our table go the pork and chive, spicy pork, curry, and chicken and mushroom fried dumplings any they were all so good! They were a bit on the oily side and one of our party had a gluten allergy and sadly there weren’t any options for her but other wise great visit. Friendly staff and also delicious tea options!

I LOVE a good dumpling! And the dumplings here are not only delicious and varied in fillings - but you get 12 per order! AND you can have them steamed or fried. Personally, I prefer mine steamed. But both are excellent here. Yesterday we had the Chicken & Mushroom fried, and the Pork & Cabbage steamed. Yummy! Be sure to order an appetizer or two (they’ll bring it to you quickly while your hand-made dumplings are being freshly cooked) they are incredible! I recommend the Asian Pickled Cucumber and the Spicy Tofu with Peanut Sauce. Both the indoor and outdoor atmosphere is simple, clean and welcoming. The staff are very friendly, helpful and diligent! I have one teeny-tiny quibble and that’s that I prefer a thinner dumpling wrap. These are tasty and lovely, but just a little thick with a bit more chew to them.

I happened upon this place when exploring Nashville. It’s in a cute little shopping area nearby Vanderbilt, however parking was not easy at all. Pretty much everything in the surrounding area was paid. We did happen to find a parking garage that was free for the first hour, so we parked and the timer started. We entered the restaurant, perused the menu and ordered. The prices were fair for the food, however they offered no drinks. They offered either $1 bottled water or you had to pay for a water cup. That’s right…they offered “free water and ice” but provided no cup, you had to pay $1 for the cup TO GET the free water and ice. Additionally, it is a complete self-service restaurant- the only thing they do is bring you the food. You must pick up your utensils/napkins/etc and you also have to clean up after yourself before you leave. So the audacity to ask for a tip when paying was absurd to me. We ordered around 11:50AM. Granted, the restaurant was busy, but it took until 12:32 before we received our food. However, what really grinned my gears was what I witnessed while waiting for my food. Somebody (I’m assuming a family member or friend), emerged from the back while chatting up the employees. They proceeded to talk for a bit and then she came out into the dining area and sat down. She looked at a menu and then ordered. She ordered around 12:15. I think it was MAYBE 5-10 minutes later they brought out multiple dishes she had ordered. Meanwhile, the rest of the dining area (my friend and I, another couple, and a family of about 6 who had also ordered first), was still waiting on all of our food. Okay, I get giving people you know personally preference, but when you have an entire dining room of guests who ordered nearly 30-40 minutes before them literally WATCH you serve them preference, no, then that’s not right. And did I mention we were on an hour timer for the parking? We basically had to swallow our food and literally run to our car to make it before we got charged. There was no reason 24 steamed dumplings should have taken nearly an hour to receive. And the final slap in the face was cleaning up after ourselves after being asked for a tip and then having to rush out because they took so long to serve. This was such an awful experience and I cannot recommend this place to anyone.

The dumplings here never disappoint and are always amazing and made fresh! We got spicy pork dumplings (half fried and half steamed) and chicken curry (half fried and half steamed). I recommend the spicy pork - definitely one of the best dumplings I have had! The staff is nice and helpful, restaurant is clean. There is a lot of street parking in front of the restaurant. There is also a good selection of outdoor seating. I will be back to try the peanut butter pork dumplings!

Pan seared dumplings are my favorite so I was pleasantly surprised how delicious and perfectly crispy the pork and cabbage dumplings were. The hot and sour soup was really good but the taste reminded me of chili. Service was quick and there's plenty of seating. Parking is a hassle but that's the general comment about this whole area. There was a weird smell inside initially but then your nose gets accustomed to it.

We came in on a gloomy Sunday around 1:30 pm and it was almost empty besides 1 table that was already enjoying their food. The staff was helpful and kind. We place an order for 1/2 spicy pork, 1/2 pork and cabbage steamed dumplings, and a strawberry peach tea. The food is made fresh to order so while there was a little wait for it, it was worth it. The spicy pork has a little kick but we're also used to more intensity so this was a nice spice. The pork and cabbage was incredibly juice - you've been warned. And the tea was a refreshing drink to enjoy. The restaurant has open seating, with what seemed like enough tablea and is very clean. Would recommend stopping in.

Overall: One of my first Asian food places since moving from Cali, and I was not disappointed :') We got the half and half (pork and chive & beef curry and onion). The pork and chive was solid; the beef curry and onion -- genius and so flavorful and delicious. On top of that, the peanut butter dumplings actually made me shed a tear of happiness. This is only so dramatic because I really missed having a good dumpling spot. I will be back and I got an order of the peanut butter dumplings to go. Service: Pretty quick and efficient! Order up front and they bring it out to you. We did order boba too but the drinks did take a lot longer to come out than the food. Ambiance: Small, cute, and homey (it's a literal little house)! Super cute and I like the little walls + I liked that they showed the dumplings being made fresh.

Peanut butter pork dumplings are SO fire! I would rate a 10/10 they are probably one of the best dumpling dishes I've tried. The dumplings are made fresh and there are a variety of dumplings to choose. I would love to try their peanut butter shrimp dumplings and soup next.

Overall, I enjoyed Dumpling House. The outdoor seating area is super cute, with pretty lights on the ceiling. I tried their veggie dumplings pan fried and the spicy tofu appetizer. The veggie dumplings were good, but would have liked them to also have had tofu inside to be more filling. In hindsight, I would have picked steamed dumplings since the pan fried was very oily (they cover the dumplings in a thin batter so it has a crunchy skirt surrounding each dumpling). I didn't really care for the tofu appetizer. It was just silken tofu with their chili oil on top. A little pricey for what we got too. My friend tried the curry chicken and pork dumplings and enjoyed those, they were steamed and much less oily. It was self service with disposable cutlery. I do wish they provided water, we had to pay $1 for a bottle. There is paid street parking nearby, about $2 per hour.

Such a great place, ambiance is friendly & cute with helpful staff members. Food is delicious & we've never had a bad experience. Right in Vanderbilt area & lots of street parking with a covered patio that is dog friendly too. Check this place out if you haven't already.

I recently moved to Nashville and have been looking for authentic, gourmet Asian food spots to check out. Dumpling house has definitely taken a top spot on this list. The dumplings were fresh, warm, and comforting. My friend and I shared the peanut butter pork dumplings, the chive and pork dumplings and the curry beef dumplings. The curry beef and peanut butter pork were definitely the stars. The flavors were immaculate. They're made in house, fresh when you order and you can even see the man preparing them when you order. This spot is so homey (it's literally a house) and feels intimate. The boba drinks were so yummy as well. I got the strawberry cake boba and initially forgot to order with boba, but the waiting staff was so patient and kind and changed the order for me. Also, they take commodore cash so if you're a Vandy student definitely come to check this place out!!! Highlyyyy recommend and will definitely be back.

For my first visit. I ordered the vegetable dumplings (steamed), which came in an order of 12. The dumplings were tasty and cooked well. They were on the smaller side and weren't super filling, so in hindsight I may have ordered an appetizer or side. The inside of the restaurant is simple yet modern. We went during an off hour, so there were plenty of open tables. The service was fast and friendly. I would certainly go back to explore more of the menu.

Highly recommended pizza dumplings! So delicious and fun to eat. I didn't think that mayo would go well with dumplings but it did. My husband and I enjoyed the steamed dumplings as well. We ordered curry pork, pork & chives, spicy pork and pork with cabbage. They all were delicious but I will definitely order the spicy pork, pork& chives, and pizza dumplings again next time. Bubble tea with cheese foam was pretty good. Over all experience and service were great. The lady that helped us at the register gave a good recommendation. We will be back for sure.

Really great dumpling joint. Good variety, though the subtlety of the flavors in the dumplings get a bit lost in presentation (if that makes sense), as well as the accompaniments. Inside is a bit spartan; some decoration and reflective of the task at hand, but not the focused lack of aesthetic that other 'sanitized to the point of "stark"' popular dumpling domiciles I've been. Contrast this with the patio and the sunroom that can't be accessed from the main dining room, and it's an interesting setup. So the food, as the question begs: The novel rift that got crossed, for me, was that the fried dumplings came scraped off the flattop with the batter tying them all together. Meaty but loose inside, crispy crunchy base, and chewy dumpling outers put the texture contrast at the forefront. The sauce for the pizza dumplings was a bit overpowering, but still remarkably good. The peanut butter dumplings were sensational. I don't know if it's bastardized Thai, but don't skip on these, no matter your aversion to peanuts (save that if anaphylaxis and death, but they've got meds for that now, right?). Don't get me wrong here, I found the meal exceptional. Some fine tuning would have found my socks rolling up and down. Single best thing I had: the Asian pickled cucumbers. Savory, slightly sweet, umami abound; a delicate crunch of the cucumbers- I'm not sure if they're all that healthy, but I didn't care. Let me make a point here: I swear allegiance to meat. Meat is where cooking occurs- art and science all in one. Baking? Science and protocol. Cold dishes (salads)? Merely slicing and serving. The application of heat to protein (and this probably applies to the starch realm of dumplings) is where the epicureans get separated from the mailed meal kit mavens takes place. You cook meat well, and we're bigger friends that you probably bargained for. That detour aside, when I say the best thing I had had nothing to do with muscle or sinew, that's a BFD to me. Oh, and order more than remotely necessary. They make for fantastic leftovers, hot or cold. The purveyors know this all too well, as to go boxes are made readily available, self-serve.

Another great Hillsboro village spot. Sterile yet inviting atmosphere. Only ding is that everything is a bit expensive. But the dumplings are so good. A nice variety of fillings options. Very flavorful. The pan-sear is perfectly crispy and yet still soft enough.

Really mediocre - ordered 2 orders of dumplings, rice, and a boba and the total was about $50. Rice was burnt and the dumplings were just meh. Fully self-service restaurant. Would rather cook at home 10 out of 10 times than spend my money here.

OK, let's start off. The food is delicious. They hand make all of their dumplings right in front so people can see and it is worth every penny. It is in a cute little old house that has enough seating on the inside as well as some great outdoor seating. The vibe is very chill. They have to go options as well. Well, worth the money. This is a great little date night place for something casual and fun!

I have never experienced worse service and worse food. I ordered my food and they forgot about it and then gave me an incorrect order after me waiting 45 mins while people who ordered after me got all of their food. I am not sure if it's just college students who don't care about putting in effort or just they don't know how to run a restaurant. I will not be back. Also the quality of the food is so bad for the expensive price.

The dumplings are amazing! Our favorites are the pork and cabbage or the chicken and mushroom. If you like spice, I highly recommend the peanut butter dumplings....you'll want 2 orders! I love sitting out on the porch, very homey!

Dumpling House has been on my list for so long! Im glad I finally was able to make it out here. We got four different types of dumplings- two steamed and two fried. I prefer the steamed ones, where my boyfriend prefers the fried ones. The fried dumplings come all connected with fried dough goodness. The flavors were strong. I liked the curry chicken dumpling the most. Its unique flavor and combination blew me away. My next favorite was the spicy pork. With such fun flavors and affordable prices, dumpling house is great for a quick and yummy meal. I was full after about 8 dumplings (typically 12 in an order).

I came on a Saturday night. It was very busy. The line was long. There weren't any tables. Our friends got there first so they already had a table. We sat in the extended room and it was freezing in there. Our food took an hour too. A bit frustrating. I got the lychee mint drink. I was so excited cus I thought the drinks were soda and lemonade mixed together like how they do it in Asia but it's not. It's either or. But the girl said they could do both for me. It didn't taste like lemonade, just soda. There also wasn't much of a mint flavor present. It was fine tho. We got the peanut butter dumplings, pork wonton soup, pan fried spicy pork, pan fried curry chicken, and pan fried pork and shrimp. My favorite was the peanut butter dumplings. It sounds weird and I thought the peanut butter taste would be too overwhelming and thick but it was actually really tasty. Aside from the hour wait, I have no complaints.

The cutest little restaurant you could possibly come across. I came here for a vacation because the Airbnb I was staying at was literally walking distance from the restaurant and we just went last minute because we were about to leave to go back home but let me tell you we got some Boba from here and it was so good. We waited till we got in the car to eat the dumplings but we had got I think point dumplings and veggie dumplings and let me tell you they did not disappoint either even though we waited a while to eat them, but I love them definitely check this place out the service and everything was amazing. Everybody was very nice. I will definitely be coming back here whenever I come visit

These were really great and authentic dumplings! I tried the pork. The crispy lace on the bottom of the dumplings was perfect. I tried the pork dumplings with peanut butter sauce which is also fantastic. You simply order at the cashier and then they'll bring it out to you. Parking costs money on Belcourt but parking by Fannie Mae dees park should be fine. The dumplings themselves are also a little expensive, but worth it. Will definitely return!

Dumpling House had raving reviews, so of course we had to drop in while in Nashville. We went about twenty minutes before they closed on a Saturday night. We came in and checked out the menu, it was a bit confusing. It said some things were out of stock but the person at the register said for us to ignore the menu because it wasn't accurate, so we were back to being confused and had to ask questions. We ordered Peanut Butter Shrimp Dumplings, Peanut Butter Pork Dumplings, A Half/Half (12pc) Curry Beef and Onion Dumplings & Veggie Dumplings (Pan Fried). The woman making the dumpling was a bit snappy when the lady who took our order asked if the Half/Half could be put in separate containers because I am a pescatarian. She snipped at the cashier, "don't do that again". That didn't really sit well with us because it didn't seem like the most challenging task but more importantly, there was a kinder way for her to communicate that to the cashier, and ultimately us since we were within ear shot and I'm pretty sure she knew that. But hey, it was late, they were about to close and maybe that was the rule. Either way, a kinder/clearer line of communication would've been appreciated and gone a long way. But nonetheless the dumplings were amazing. Peanut Butter Shrimp Dumplings (10/10) - The peanut butter sauce was nothing short of amazing. The dumplings were steamed to perfection and and flavorful. Peanut Butter Pork Dumplings (10/10) - They truly were identical to the Shrimp Dumlings, See above. Curry Beef & Onion Dumplings (10/10) - The curry beef was savory and juicy. The flavors were very robust. It can be described as a party in your mouth. Veggie Dumplings (Pan Fried) (10/10) - These were a different texture than the other because they were the only pan fried ones and I simply loved them just the same. They also had nice crunch throughout with the veggies.They didn't come with the peanut sauce but the sauce was so good I used it to coat these ones too.

Hidden gem! Searching for soup dumplings and e def up here. No soup dumplings but man are we glad we stayed! Their Pork Dumplings in Peanut Sauce is out of this world. The chopped peanuts, amazing sauce and tender flavorful pork dumplings really made this an extraordinary meal. Accompanied by jasmine rice to sip up the delicious sauce and a Lychee Mint soda made on the spot. This place is GREAT.

Dumpling House is the perfect addition to Hillsboro Village. Their dumplings are legit, and this is coming from a second generation Chinese-American immigrant whose mother makes some delectable homemamde jiaozi and baozi. These are slightly small in my opinion, but the flavors are on point and the chew of the dumpling skin is perfection. These will cost you a pretty penny if you eat as many dumplings as I do, but if you have a craving, it's worth it. Plus, they also serve up some impressive boba teas and soups on the side. I personally love their pork and chive dumplings, but you can't go wrong with ordering. Their curry beef and onion reminds me of a curry dumpling from a chain I used to get habitually in Taiwan and HK. Honestly, you can't go wrong in any of your orders. There's mostly street parking here, so time your visit accordingly. If you don't mind a slight walk, you can always find a free spot near the park a few blocks away.

I finally got to try the dumpling house. It's been on my list! First of all, it's adorable, and there is plenty of outdoor seating. There was a wait for a table available, and when we got seated, the table wasn't very clean. I had the tiramisu boba, which was delicious and not too sweet, and I loved that the boba wasn't overcooked. The food was flavor my friends, and I shared and ordered different once. We had a chicken curry, spicy pork and veggie dumplings. All of the dumplings are flavorful really good. The soup dumpling was nice flavor broth. There are plenty of fillings and nice sizes. I my only complaint was its in a high price. Be mindful when you order and the pre filled tip amount can add up. Also there was no option to change the tip amount or customize it. My only complaint was that the table was dirty. I'm glad I tried it!

highly recommend the pork and chive i reviewed them before and think i gave a good review but i wasn't obsessed with them before. the pork and chive dumpling were so good this time i loved them so much!! if you thought they were just okay the first two times maybe third time is charm for them to become delicious. i think best dumplings in nashville i've had at least (although very few places to choose from) the wonton soup was also super good

So good! I came here yesterday and my wife and I came back today! Highly recommend the peanut butter pork dumplings. The sauce is so amazing I ended up dipping all of my other dumplings in it. Rest of the order was the pan fried pork & chive dumplings. Also incredible. As for drinks - there are a lot of them. I ordered a Watermelon Code the first day. It's good, but I didn't think it was worth $6. It does taste fresh and refreshing though. The giant hunk of watermelon took up most of the cup so I ran out fast. Another weird thing is their cup lids, I found them about as fun as paper straws. Second day I got a lychee mint lemonade. I'd go with that (or any of the lemonades/sodas - they make all of them with all of the flavors listed) over the watermelon code. Water is only available in a bottle for $1. Not a bad price, but I prefer dirty sink water with ice. I'll be back and will work my way through all of the dumplings (and most of the drinks). Nashville sorely needed a place that made this high quality of dumplings!!

I've tried a bunch of different dumplings. All of the meat ones are delicious. I get them pan fried with a side of cucumbers. If you get them to go, they give you sauce. Otherwise you have to mix your own with soy sauce, vinegar and a dash of chili oil. You can't go wrong with any of their fruit teas either. I like getting Lychee Dragon Fruit with pineapple nata jelly. The drinks are on the sweet side for me so I get it 75% sweet. There is plenty of seating inside and two covered sides of the patio with additional seating. It's nice to have protection from the elements now.

Visited Dec 10, 2023. I first heard of this place on Insta! Was so excited to see there's a restaurant specifically for dumplings wherefore they should serve some amazing dumplings! Sad to say they fell short on the dumplings. I surely will come back for their redemption but until then, the following are some critiques. Pros: decent amount of seating, legible menu with photos, great customer service, price for quantity, lovely homey atmosphere. Pan-fried curry beef buns were my favorite - no complaints, very tasty! Cons: my BIGGEST complaint - the soup dumplings (xiaolongbao) had no soup, the dough thick/was under steamed making it chewy (photos attached), silverware was not knowingly self grab under the counter. I already paid for the chicken n mushroom but they were out and unfortunately the next item I ordered was cheaper but they didn't refund my difference. Tap water isn't provided so you must purchase bottled water. The price for quality fell short and the exterior was a mess. Flavors for the most part is light unless choosing the curry option. I'ld say if it's your first time and you can handle some spice, dip the dumplings with sauce mixture ( soy sauce + chili oil + dash of vinegar). Parking is parallel or can be found a block away in provided lots. Must scan QR code for parking fees.

No useful for photo but we just killed it! He the peanut butter and pork dumplings. Seriously one of the best bites I've had. If you do the curry chicken with the peanut it's close to a Marsala. Great place will be back for sure. Order from the front. Not a fan of for the cost but the food taste makes up for it.

My first time here with my sister. We ordered the Pork Soup Dumplings, Curry Chicken Dumplings, Veggie Dumplings, and Pan-Fried Curry Beef Dumplings. I was a bit disappointed with the Pork Soup Dumplings because there weren't any soup inside and the wraps were a bit thick....just a little. My favorite would be the Pan-Fried Curry Beef Dumplings and the Curry Chicken Dumplings. Very flavorful and super delicious. It got a little kick to it. I would definitely go back and try their other dishes and grab a boba next time!

Dumplings were alright and somewhat reasonably priced. The wait was fairly long, about 30 minutes wait for our dumplings. The cashier was not friendly. No service at all, water was not free and we had to clean up after. We noticed that there was a special treatment for the friends of the restaurant because they came and ordered after us but somehow got their food 10 minutes earlier. Not exactly how we'd like to be treated.

I've tried Dumpling House twice now and the first time everything was amazing! The dumplings were perfectly cooked and the pork wonton soup was tasty! It was so good that I was excited to go back again. When I went back a week later and ordered the same thing my dumplings were not as good as the first time. They even were a little burnt on the bottom. Overall I still think this place is worth the hype but I would be more cautious about ordering the fried dumplings. Oh and I do wish you could order smaller portions than 12 dumplings.

The peanut butter pork dumpling appetizer was the highlight - nice spice level with a salty sauce. The atmosphere is what really disappointed. It was so snug and hot, and there is an overall lack of flow to the set up. The patio seating was clunky and, worst of all, sticky! I think some reconfiguring and more attention to cleanliness would benefit Dumpling House.

We stopped in here after a movie at the Belcourt because we love dumplings. The staff was super nice and welcoming. We ordered the peanut butter pork dumplings, the curry chicken dumplings (pan fried) and the pork and cabbage dumplings (pan fried). Everything was really tasty!!! The peanut butter pork dumplings were my absolute favorite though. I can't wait to have them again. I'm taking a star off because of two things. The drinks they had were really expensive and there was no tap water available, just bottled water for sale. The second reason is because you can do split orders of dumplings but no one told us before we ordered. I wished we had known so we could have tried some more things. Seating and decor was all nice! They had each table stocked with all you needed to make your perfect dipping sauce. I want to bottle the peanut butter sauce and take it home with me.

The Dumpling House had what I was looking for in an early dinner. I went around 6pm on a Sunday and it was pretty busy but not overwhelmingly so. I stood in line for about 5 minutes and that was fine. The young lady who took my order recommended the pork and shrimp and the curry steak dumplings. I got a half and half order of the dumplings, hot and sour soup with a brown sugar Thai tea. The soup came out quickly and it was indeed piping hot. The dumplings came out about 20 minutes later, which was fine because they told me it could take longer to prep. Everything was sooo good. There were so many dumplings that I could not finish them all. Sadly, my hotel didn't have a fridge in the room and my yummy leftovers perished. I'm actually pretty sad about it.

Good Asian restaurants are few and far between in Nashville, so I'm very thankful to have this pop up in the Hillsboro/Vanderbilt area...and even more thankful I work walking distance to it! Dumplings and atmosphere are more authentic than Steam Boys (the only other dumpling joint in town), which I also enjoy but I think I appreciated Dumpling House's variety, flavors, and homey authenticity a little more. There is a wide selection of fillings (e.g. pork and cabbage, beef curry, chicken curry, shrimp, and many more), which you can get boiled, steamed, or pan fried, as well as some appetizers and special dumplings, like shrimp or pork dumplings in peanut sauce. I ordered the pan fried beef curry dumplings and the shrimp dumplings in peanut sauce. The flavors on both were great, loved the texture of the fried crispy layer, and the peanut sauce was excellent. I'll definitely be back to try some more! There is also a good variety of boba and other drinks, I didn't try but my friends said they were delicious! Overall I enjoyed my meal but pricey ($13+ for 12 dumplings), but thankful there is another Asian restaurant in town!

Food 4.5/5 Pork Dumplings were delicious! Explosion of Flavors! Service 4/5 Very friendly and our food came out within 10 minutes. Atmosphere 4/5 Located in an old house in Nashville with lots of seating inside with an outdoor patio.

Really great dumplings! Nashville isn't known for great Chinese food so these really hit the spot. The spicy pork dumplings are just the right size and tasted great. The peanut butter and pork dumplings were really fun and tasted very Thai between the peanut butter sauce and peanuts. Add some chili oil to them! The cucumbers were a nice mellow flavor. My only complaint is all the disposable bowls used. Go there and have some good dumplings and don't worry about the environment

Dumpling house is a newer spot on Belcourt Ave that's seemingly taken the area by storm. Despite being less than a few weeks since it's opening it was pretty much completely packed when I dropped in tonight. Dumpling House is special in that it provides, well, quality dumplings and boba to an area that had few *good* options previously. This does, however, come with a less than reasonable cost. Factoring in the cost with the quality of the food, I'd definitely say dumpling house is worth visiting but be prepared to spend more than what you might think it's worth.

YUM! These dumplings were fabulous! I could eat these as my death row meal and die satisfied! However, I do wish the prices were a bit cheaper. Tip: Use the pickled cucumber sauce to dip your dumplings in!

The dumplings and apps are tasty, and the staff is nice. The clerk who took our order was super helpful. But the kitchen is sloooooooow. We were a party of 4 and our orders came out one by one over the course of almost 45 minutes. But the time the last order of dumplings came out we had to take them to go.

Ambience was calm yet energetic with guests interactions and conversations. The drinks were freshly made to order and the cashier was very friendly and welcoming and made suggestions . The food was prepared to order and delivered correctly. It was hot, tender and juicy. I got the chicken coriander steamed dumpling which were delicious. This is my second visit within 2 weeks of moving here from Atlanta.
