Dumpling House - Lunch restaurant in Rochester - 410 Jefferson Rd, USA

Went here for dinner two days ago. My friend had recommended this place as I had never been here before. They are known for their dumplings and we tried the chicken dumplings and they were good. I also had the pork buns and the sesame chicken and rice and it was delicious as well. Very flavorful and fresh. I would definitely go back here again. This place did seem to get busy around dinnertime and it was mostly filled with college students.

First time trying dumplings and steamed dishes.. we ordered several things and they were all delicious. Great service, great atmosphere, great food.. why go anywhere else?

Flavorful food and good portions. It was our first time at this restaurant and we really enjoyed the food. Tried two types of dumplings, vegetarian was the favorite. Staff was attentive. Only suggestion is to have more drink options other than soda. There’s plenty of parking outside.

Totally legit dim sum and great service... can see why so many good reviews. We got an array of dim sum and entree dishes that were really freaking good, Highly recommend if you're near Rochester NY and wanting 💣 dim sum!

Fab! Got several dumplings and buns, and everything was great. Service was fun and friendly, and the price wasn't bad either. Got PLENTY of leftovers on a 60 dollar check between two.

Happiness is soup dumplings and dim sum. 10/10. Friend and I came here for lunch to test out soup dumplings and other offerings, visiting from out of town. Food: 10/10. We got the pork soup dumplings, pork belly buns, shrimp dumplings, and shumai. Let's begin with the soup dumplings: the wrappers were delicate and thin (let it set up for a few minutes to cool down and firm up, or you'll risk tearing it straightaway). The filling was so tender and juicy, and of course the soup was amazing-- a rich, restorative broth. I was so sad when they were finished. The pork belly buns were exceptional-- crispy, perfectly-rendered pork belly overtop a crunchy peanut/chili oil mix, with cilantro to lighten the load. The bao to filling ratio was just right (not overly doughy, generous amount of meat) and the pork belly wasn't oily or tough. Perfect. The shrimp dumplings were delicate, tender, and packed with shrimpy flavor. The wraps are glassy and thin, again, a great ratio to filling. The shumai were also excellent, with a tiny shrimp on top of each one (the attention to detail, the care shown), although I liked the shrimp dumplings more. The most incredible thing was the price-- all of that, plenty for two people at lunch, was less than $30. Service: 10/10, no notes! Servers were fast and friendly, and let us know we could take our time and pay at the counter when ready. They were responsive to movements and very attentive. Bathrooms: 9/10. Two single-stalls available. Everything was clean, just a little odd (the toilet is set up pretty high, especially relative to the toilet paper, which hangs very low, the wall-mounted trash can). The hand dryer wasn't working, and there isn't a paper towel dispenser (in the end, I just used some more toilet paper to dry off). Atmosphere: 10/10. Very chill, comfortable vibes. The décor is cute, the seats are comfortable; everything from standard chairs to benches to high tops are available. In addition, you can see into the kitchen from the front, so you can watch everything cooking. I love that there's a drive-through for pickup orders, and the location seems great. Plenty of parking and other spots to check out in the square (karaoke bar and a small Asian grocery next door). Bonus help: Bring cash for 5% off your total, try to tip in cash (that goes for everywhere, though), and GET THE SOUP DUMPLINGS!

Haven’t had the food yet. The decorations were so nice I had to pull out my camera. The reviews are good enough. Its a gamble that the food will really be worth 5 stars, but I can change my mind later.

Good Chinese food, not just Rochester good but legit good. Best I’ve had outside a major metropolis. We ordered dumplings, great soup dumplings, delicious pork belly buns. Even the fried rice and shrimp dumplings were more flavorful than the usual. The food is just as pictured on the walls. And the prices are very reasonable. Looking forward to going back!
