A cute place with friendly staff, and the vegetarian bao is the best I’ve ever had!

I have been here 5 times already and I truly believe these are the best soup dumplings I have ever had. EVEN COMPARED TO OVERSEAS. I have been to Japan and China and I believe these combine the quality of Japan and authenticity of Chinese cuisine.
The dumplings here have a perfect balance of juice, meat to skin ratio. They have stand out dishes you cannot typically find at other Chinese restaurants, such as pan fried soup dumplings and spicy xlb.
Not only are the dumplings good, but the majority of the menu tastes good. I love their dan dan noodles and wontons for their flavorful sauce.
The only dish I would absolutely avoid are the chicken soup dumplings. They are probably the worst thing on the menu, but everything else is amazing!!
Even after moving, every time I come to visit, this will be the first place I come back to.
IMPORTANT NOTE: Make sure to arrive at least 10 minutes before opening if you want to get a seat right away. On weekends you might want to arrive 20 minutes early. This does not account for parking! Street parking is not the best in this area.

Best dumplings I’ve had. It was my first time so I asked for the most popular - pan fried and steamed dumplings. We ordered shrimp noodle soup as well. Every dish was delicious. Can’t wait to come back to try other dishes.

It's a hole in the wall Taiwanese restaurant with the amazing Chinese food. Get there early. 20 min before the restaurant opened, the line was already forming. Absolutely worth the wait.

I’m so disappointed at this restaurant. We got to the restaurant at 1:50 pm on a Saturday, the waitlist said about 30 minute wait time. We put our name on the waitlist but knowing the restaurant closes at 2:15 pm we ordered takeout in case they were going to close. After waiting 10 minutes, we got a text saying our table is ready, but because we ordered takeout, the waitress said we can’t dine in and immediately took our names off the waitlist. Is it that difficult to change our takeout order to dine in instead? They were not willing to compromise at all.
After waiting about 30 minutes for our takeout order, I asked the waitress if our order was ready. She said she can’t check for me and that I had to go into the restaurant to the checkout counter to ask. When I went to the counter, our order had been ready and had been sitting there. No one called our number or let us know that we needed to go check ourselves. Our food wasn’t even hot by the time we got it.
Food was great, but extremely disappointed by the uncompromising service.

Food was amazing!!!! Delicious!!! Now I can see why they always have a line out the door. The service was the fastest I’ve ever received in my life😂 No joke I didn’t wait but for a moment for every item I had there! I’m so going back as soon as possible!!! Try the juicy fried pork bao but be careful for you rookies and expect to burn your lip from the juice if you don’t know what your doing 😂

OMFG! The best dumplings I’ve ever had hands down! We had just watched the Nutcracker and were starving. We waited in the cold but it was worth it. We had the juicy pork bao which I thought was the best thing we ate there. We had onion pancakes, spring rolls, vegetables bun, garlic green onion noodles, and other stuff I forgot. All really good. Service was fast nice and efficient. We were in and out fairly quickly. Hiiiiiiighly recommend.

The experience with my friend Tima was so puuurfect...I forgot to take photos of some the freshest dumplings and bao! Just show up here early! The staff working are friendly, efficient and on point! 6 of 5 stars 😋✨🤠
Vegetarian options: Just ask the servers :) they are culinary guides
We had chicken and pork and wanted more. The thick outer wrapping was chewy and delicious.
Loved the cucumber salad and garlic okra as well to have some greens on the table. The chicken wings were super tasty with a sweet and spicy sauce and very crispy wings.
This place also had really good, large soup dumplings that didn’t easily tear when picking up. Loved it. Will go again and triple down on the juicy bao next time!

You'll get your dumplings fast and hot. Dumpling Home earned a Michelin Star in 2021. I enjoyed everything about this eatery style dining experience.
NOTE: The wait will be an hour or more if you don’t show up at 5pm. I was unable to find a way to reserve a table. When you show up you will need to sign up with a iPad at the front.
Delicious, the price is great and everything went smooth. They are extremely busy, so busy I had the waitress let me know to order now because she won’t be back.

Just out boppin around with Artichoke Joe and he spits out this and that about the Dumpling Home Chinese Restaurant over on Gough street. This ace in the hole says there's a secret menu item called the Lucky 8 ..It's the dumpling soup but with 8 pot sticker dumplings, so we went straight there, and all I can say is WOW! 5 STARS ☆☆☆☆☆
