Dough Zone Dumpling House Berkeley

Ordered for delivery. The portions were really small for the price. The dumplings were ripped apart and stuck to the box packaging. Very little meat and the broth had no flavor for their noodle soup

Most definitely worth the price. We had the pork and crab XLB, the Dan Dan noodles, and the pan-fried beef dumplings. The ambiance and decor added to the experience; dining in is a good time. The portion sizes are what the price calls for. Besides strangely sweet pickled cabbage with the pan-fried dumplings and a bit of what I assume freezer burn on the XLB, I see myself coming back for a quick and relatively-cheap meal one of these days.

The xiao long bao is a disgrace to chinese food. 0 soup, meat tasted gross. Some of the worst chinese food ive ever had.

nice space, great sound system with pleasant jazz playing, Clarence our server was personable friendly, and informative. Unfortunately the dim sum was disappointing. doughy, small and with short on filling to. pastry propertions. Worst stemed pork buns I've ever had. Instead of chunks of savory pork in a light fluffy steamed bun, we got a rubbery mass of chewy dough with a pale lump of some finely ground gilling. The touted specialty: soup dumpling were tiny chewy with less filling and soup inside then at other dim sum places . The pork & Shhrimp boiled dumplings were ok but again not up to other restaurants quality. The one dish that I really liked was not dim sum The Five Spice Beef Shank was delicious but I might not enjoy it ever again only because of the disappointing dim sum. I was really excited at the possibility of a dim sum restaurant opening in downtown berkeley but the experience was a real disappointment. For Dim Sum I will be going to East Ocean in Emeryville great dim sum bigger portions snd great views of the Bay.
