Sunday night we were the only patrons at 5:45. But boy it was incredible dumplings. The place should have been packed.

We had six different types of dumplings. I can’t remember what they all were but they were all good.

Service was fast attentive and courteous. Then again we were it.

These folks deserve your business.

Ordered a wide range of things and we all enjoyed the meal a lot. Great noodles, sushi, and bao.

The food was great! The decor is a little dated, but it's clean. Not the most traditional bar drinks (leaving ice in the Cosmo), but the sake was good and the prices were reasonable. I am sure we will go back.

The food was quite good, but the service was very poor. In the beginning there were only 3 tables yet the server was rushing us and running around. Then he went outside multiple times to smoke. When he returned the first time, smelling of smoke, he checked on a couple tables and then disappeared again. We never got drink refills. When we were done, we were looking for him and saw outside the window he was once again smoking. It should also be noted he didn't wash his hands after returning from smoking either time. We eventually had to go find someone else to pay as we had show tickets and had been waiting for a long time. No additional tables beyond the initial others joined while we dined.

The place is dusty, the waiter doesn't speak good English, had trouble getting what I wanted. The drinks are very expensive, not worth it. Nothing in the background, no TV or music. I felt rushed and had to ask for water.

I’ve been here twice now and ordered different things each time. This time around, I got a few other things to try. I started with the marinated beef, which came with a side of hoisin, I believe. The waitress let me know of a special going on with a soup. I can’t remember the name, but it was delicious. I don’t see it on a menu, so I believe it was limited time. It was a tasty broth with some dumplings. Very good. I got a roll with crab, avocado, cream cheese, eel sauce, and shrimp tempura for sushi. It’s not on the online menu but on the physical one. Lastly, I got the stir-fried noodle with shrimp for my entree. I love thin rice noodles, so I had to try them here. Delicious! Staff is always kind and food comes out quick.

What a great place. The food- soooo good. Get the pan fried pot stickers. Wowza. Quiet, very clean and very nice inside. Casual clothing to a suit- it’s probably slammed during the week with the nearby office parks.

We were looking for a soup dumpling restaurant in the Milwaukee area and found the “Dumpling House” via THE Google. When we entered the establishment, we were greeted by very disturbing EDM (Electronic Dance Music) which is very similar to Techno Music playing loudly in the dining room. We both enjoy most types of music and we were hoping that it was just a track or two, but were very disappointed that the music never changed from that genre. Ok so they play loud and obnoxious music, but we were hoping for a decent soup dumpling.

Our server spent most of his time behind the bar looking at his phone. Because of this the service was slow. He never checked in on us once our food arrived and never filled our water glasses.

Now for the food. We ordered an order of pork soup dumpling and an order of fried beef dumplings. It was sub-par. The soup dumplings did not have any soup in them. Ok, there was a teaspoon of soup in one of the dumplings out of 8. When we opened the fried dumplings up they were not fried. They looked and tasted like the pork soup dumplings. There was also an odd taste to the meat in both of the dumplings. We do NOT recommend this restaurant.

Food was really good, but none of the food for our table was timed so that things came out for the group (3 of us). One person didn't get their food until nearly 40 minutes after the rest of us finished.

The pork buns are HUGE and taste like hamburger patties. How am I even supposed to eat these? Disappointed doesn’t even begin to describe how I feel.

I had the soup dumplings, BBQ pork buns, beef pot stickers and chicken and corn dumplings. They brought out a dumpling soup for 2 people that was really good that they said isn't on the menu so I don't know what it was called. Everything was great. I really liked the BBQ pork buns. A good amount of filling. Try the different condiments they have. The dumpling sauce and chili oil were nice additions.
