Dough Zone Dumpling House San Mateo

This is for just one item on the menu that deserves special mention, broccoli. If you expect Chinese broccoli to be served at this Chinese restaurant, you're mistaken. They DO NOT serve Chinese broccoli. Instead they serve steamed broccoli florets.

Food is mid but there are swarms of fruit flies everywhere. I’ve been to street food stalls in Asia with better hygiene. Don’t waste your time and money

Walked in just before closing on a Saturday night. Welcomed and greeted. Ordered cucumbers, XLB, wontons in chicken soup, and pan fried chive dumplings.

FOOD 3
Just ordinary. All of the dumpling items seemed manufactured and frozen. The cucumbers were fresher and better than the dumplings. The pan fried chive was not to my liking. Diced too finely and a strange garlic taste. Prices are reasonable.

SERVICE 4
Staff were warm and accommodating.

ATMOSPHERE 4
Airy open space, but lots of ambient noise from the loud clanging of, and collecting dishes.

The service was quick and easy and a very warm and inviting atmosphere. However we were incredibly disappointed with the food we got. It was undercooked and incredibly over salted. Very disappointed in the food.

Food is not authentic. Service is minimal.

We had the XLB, pot stickers, onion pancakes, and sweet and sour cucumbers. All tasted good!

Hit up Doughzone for some soup dumplings yesterday. Pretty standard, nothing that blew me away. The xiaolongbao were okay, decent soup inside but the wrapper was a bit thick. Service was fast.

Tried their noodles too, portion was generous but flavor was bland.

It's fine if you're craving dumplings and it's convenient and clean, but there are better dumpling spots around.

I loved the dining room, it was very chic and beautiful, and the menu was perfect for what I wanted!

This restaurant is amazing! Tried it for the first time, and I can confidently say I’ll be coming back for sure!

Came here to celebrate achieving a milestone. The food is amazing and did not disappoint. My husband and I are vegetarians and we loved that there is a wide range of vegetarian options. Being new to Chinese food there are some really good options. We got the vegetarian spicy ma la noodles and the signature numbing spiciness of the Sichuan peppers was a great experience. 10/10 will recommend.
