I got the pork and cabbage dumplings. They came boiled and ten in quantity. The filling was smaller than most dumpling houses. The service was friendly. It took about ten minutes to boil. However overall I don't think it was worth it because of how small the film was. But if you were on Pacific Mall, it's not a bad option. A small restaurant near random shops read more

Came back as we were craving for their robust Hot and Sour soup for its distinct, clear cut "Hot" and "Sour" assertion. It is a cure for my exhausted body and soul. No special ingredients, no meat. But it is a powerful soup. We also tried: - Pan fried vegetable dumplings: chunky pieces of veggies with thin skin, fried with super crispy dumpling skirt. The texture is enjoyable. - Fennel and pork steamed dumplings: Perfect seasonings with distinct fennel aroma. - Beef and radish steamed dumplings: Again, perfect seasoning and soft radish which leaves slight crunch. Delicate! Satisfied.... my new therapy place! read more

Small little place at Metro Square in Markham. Nothing special. Supposed to be fresh dumplings and all. I just thought that the food was just okay. Nothing fantastic. Same with the service. Just okay. Would I go back? I'm not gonna lie, um no thanks. Not my cup of tea. read more

Updated review. It's been a couple of years since my last visit. We ordered the steamed pork and celery dumplings. Perfect mixture of ground pork and celery. Pan-fried meat dumplings were equally delicious. I love the crusty pieces attached to the dumplings. The shanghai noodles with beef were stir-fried with just the right amount sauce, and the cabbage and onions provided some texture. My favourite appetizer is the green onion pancakes. They look a Chinese version of a pretzel full of chopped green onions. I like to dip these puppies in their dark vinegar to add a little acidic kick. Beef brisket noodle soup was just ok. The soup base was watered down. They did load the bowl with tender cubes of brisket. Prices have gone up, but the quality is still top notch. The service is adequate and you order from a checklist menu card. If you're craving some dumplings then head over to get your fix. read more

真东北饺子馆 makes fresh (not frozen) dumplings made to order as you wait. You can watch them making everything from scratch while sitting at your table. No preservatives added. Chinese Dumpling House makes great food of all types but their Northern Chinese cuisine is superb. They have 2 locations. This review and photos are from the Markham location on Steeles Ave East. Their other location is in Thornhill on Hwy 7. read more

All dishes are tasteless. I went there around 230pm Saturday. It felt like a sad store. There were few tables with customers. First thought the food should be good with some customers still sitting in that time. However the food are disappointed. Ingredients may be ok but I felt the atmosphere is sad and no one care read more

Nice owner, prices are reasonable and taste good. Better less oil for healthy life styles.

This venue has a couple tables available for outdoor dinning- not the most glamorous patio but it's better than nothing. Their dumplings came out in big silver trays and their noodle soups are huge in size! Nothing exceptionally amazing or disappointing about this venue. You get what you pay for. read more

TLDR- A local gem. Hole in a wall that serves delicious food. Honest food by honest people. You get your money's worth. I have developed a more well rounded appreciation for dumplings during the pandemic years. Dumpling is a delicious and convenient snack, lunch and dinner dish when we are stuck at home. Chinese Dumpling House serve seriously top notch fresh dumplings - Very thin skin that doesn't break. The pork and leeks dumplings have good meat portion and sufficient leek. Tastes so good with vinegar and chili sauce. $9 for 15 is a steal. Dumplings aside, the appetizers are well portioned. The jelly fish appetizer is fresh and awesome. The double fried pork belly is on point. I am not much fan of the taste of stir fried clams, but it is packed with clams, so you do get your money's worth. The service is effective. The venue is divey. You come for the food not the ambiance. Will return. Will recommend. read more

This is a casual Chinese restaurant that serves up some very delicious dumplings! The dough is not too thick and has a good texture and chew, filling is seasoned to perfection. The hot and sour soup is hands down the best I have ever had. Check this place out if you are ever in the neighborhood. read more

I came here for lunch and it is was pretty quiet. The worker doesn't know English but he will ask you to point to what you want on the menu, which works. The dumplings are made fresh so there is a short wait (I waited 8 mins for mine). I got the pork and shrimp pan fried dumplings. I liked how crispy they turned out! Other than that, there's nothing really too special about them. I like the dumplings from their restaurant location in Markham more. I feel like the restaurant ones had more flavour. However for $9 for 8 dumplings, I can't really complain! read more

Chinese Dumpling House - Pork and Shrimp pan fried dumplings - Chinese Near Me - Markham, Ontario

Small family style restaurants. Authentic freshly made dumpling! I can see the lady make my order at a station near my table... Ok the place is Small, so every table in the shop is near the dumpling making station... Lol The decor is definitely not glamorous. If you want faster service, you call out to get the attention of the server. With a very reasonable price point, this is a place you come for the food. Everyone already posted pictures of the dumplings, so I'm posting their wonton soup. Personal preference, I'll stay with the dough based food. They freshly make it daily. The other kitchen stir fry cook is mediocre. (Why would anyone come to a dumpling place for stir fry food?) Rating : overall 4 Decor 3, Service 3, Food (dough based) 4, Price quantity ratio 5 read more

Decent dumplings in this hole-in-a-wall restaurant. We ordered four things to share: - hot & sour soup - potato noodle salad - pork & chive pan fried dumplings - pork & chive steamed dumplings My favorite things were the potato salad and the fried dumplings. The potato salad was a good combination of vinegary and spicy. It was also not excessively oily. The pan fried dumplings had a good amount of crispiness, again without being overly oily. The filling was tasty. The steamed dumplings were a bit disappointing in my opinion. Even though we had the same kind of filling, it just tasted bland. I also prefer the dumpling wrapper to be a little thicker on my steamed dumplings. The ones here were thin and broke easily. Overall, a decent dumpling spot. It's not very fancy inside, but the service was prompt and friendly. The portions were also decent and pricing was fair. read more

This is a dumpling place right by my parents house. I have been a customer with my family for years now. You can actually watch the dumpling ladies make dumplings which is fun to watch. I love the taste of all the dumplings that are offered pan fried and steamed. We also get the beef thick noodles, the broth tastes amazing. My brother really likes the steamed lamb dumplings. Everything tastes great and I will continue to be a loyal customer. All this food was around 50$ after tax. Enough to feed 4 people read more

Chinese Dumpling House - chive egg and shrimp chive pork - Chinese Near Me - Markham, Ontario

Old school, family run Chinese restaurant. It's tucked away in the Metro Square plaza. Dumplings are standard for a dumpling restaurant, but the other dishes are also really good. Everything tasted fresh - the dumplings, noodles and vegetable dishes. Even the Crispy Beef dish was a pleasant surprise, very tender inside. Everything was reasonably priced. The restaurant is smaller, old school with menus and pictures on the walls. But it doesn't feel like the cleanest place in the world. read more

Dining outside and under the tents is an option, however you can sit indoors and social distance. The food quality has stayed the same and the speed of preparing the food is also about the same. So order those dumplings early because they make them fresh and it takes awhile to make it to your table. We tried the mushu pork tonight which was also pretty good and speedily came out of the kitchen. Lots of free parking is available. read more

Food for value is excellent here! Will definitely come back. Service is speedy. Highly recommend!

Very satisfied. Went there for a second dinner as the first dinner was not filling. We had steamed dumplings (pickle and pork favour), pan fried dumplings (pork favour) and a famous Northern Chinese dish (Guo Bao Rou in traditional favour, aka, sweet fried pork? ) In general, it's filling and good. Their steamed dumplings are what they are famous for. The dumpling skin is very thin and the stuffings are very juicy. It would be nicer if they have old step Mother spicy dipping sauce. A mix of Vinegar and that spicy sauce is a perfect dipping sauce for dumplings. Guo Bao Rou surprised me. Normally I am not a fan of sweet dish. This one was good. Garlic favour was blended into the sweetness, otherwise that sweetness is too much. Pork was still crispy. Pan fried dumpling was alright. I hope they could have been cooked for a bit longer and therefore crispier. read more

Chinese Dumpling House - Lamb steamed dumplinh - Chinese Near Me - Markham, Ontario

Dumplings! Dumplings! I love Dumplings! Arrived on a Sunday early evening for dinner.. The place is small and packed! We waited around 20 minute for a table for 2. The waitstaffs are really efficient to let us order our food while we were waiting so our food just appeared right away when we got seated!! I found the prices here are really reasonable. We ordered a Pork and Chives dumplings ($4.99), Cold Noodles ($5.99), Beef Brisket Noodles ($5.99) and Garlic vegetables ($6.99). It is fun to watch those ladies making the dumplings right in front of my eyes! Even they make the wrapping skin! The dumplings tasted really good! Not Salty! with a lot of soup inside and the skin is nice and thin... (YUMMMMMMY) The Cold Noodles is just average! The soup based not sweet and sour enough. However, it is so nice and refreshing to have it on a Hot Summer Day! The Veggie dish is excellent value! It taste as good as the $9.99 one that charged at 369 Shanghai Restaurant! I will definitely skip the Beef Brisket Noodle! Don't order it! You will be so disappointed! The little piece of brisket and the soup both does not have a lot of flavour! OK! It is more like no flavour! And no amount of hot sauce can ever save this! It is one of the time, I wish the food is smaller, since we hate it! I will definitely be back again for some more dumplings!! The service is fast and efficient! Just get your food and eat it fast and get out quick! Cash Only! read more

I came for lunch on a weekday @11:30 before the restaurant got packed with customers. We ordered the pork & cabbage , spring onion pancake, red bean pancake, pork pan fried dumplings and rice cake. The dumplings weren't superbly good, they were ok. However, eating out at a restaurant, you get 15 dumplings made fresh I really recommend the spring onion pancake... it was REALLY good -crispy and the right amount of saltiness I saw that a lot of people around me also ordered this too so it must be a popular menu item read more

Chinese Dumpling House - Pork & Cabbage Steamed Dumpling - Chinese Near Me - Markham, Ontario

Very simple, no frills, and pretty cramped restaurant, but the dumplings are freshly made and very tasty, and that's all that matters at this restaurant! We ordered: - Noodles with chicken - a bit oily, but not too fried and very tasty! - Julienned bean curd with vegetables - not my favourite. The bean curd was a bit bitter and not very flavourful. - Fried green onion pancake - not what I was expecting. This pancake is rolled up rather than flat, but it was good! Again, not overly greasy. - Chicken and mushroom steamed dumplings - yum! These were probably my favourite, although others at the table thought they could be juicier. - Beef and vegetable steamed dumplings - these had a good amount of flavour and were nice and hot. - Fried vegetable dumplings - they were ok, but I think this place makes better steamed dumplings. Overall I was really impressed with the place. It doesn't look like much, but the food is fresh and tasty. Just be sure to eat the dumplings when they are hot and fresh to enjoy all of the flavour. read more

My family and I stopped into CDH, based on online reviews. It's an unassuming place, food is visibly prepared, decor is traditional but no frills, and prices are reasonable. Food was very good. I've had better hot & sour soup in other establishments, but this version was okay. Dumplings are SUPER hot inside! My poor boyfriend burned his lip and chin from the piping hot liquid inside. I advise nipping off dumpling tip, and then allowing the steam to vent out. The lamb dumplings were really flavorful. My son really liked the sweet and sour crispy fish and vegetable and tofu dumplings. My boyfriend really enjoyed deep onion and chive pancake. NOTE: Establishment is CA$H only. We would definitely return. Cheers! Hope it helps. read more

One of the original fresh dumpling and noodle spots that feature a no-frills decent meal for a reasonable price. This place to me defined the genre before all the other ones started popping up. I would lean towards 3.5 but let's round this up to a 4. Good Chinese dumplings (not soup filled) and other Chinese dishes are solid. Decent service and nothing fancy. read more

This place isn't necessarily the best dumplings, but still good. The spring onion pancake is the BEST THING on the menu. The crispy fried pork is DELICIOUS; lightly battered thin strips of pork in a sweet and sour sauce. The steamed dumpings are good, but not great as are the fried ones. The baby baby dow-miow with garlic is super good, and still taste like veggies even after it's been cooked! Service is fast and efficient, but they are cash only, so come prepared! read more

Chinese Dumpling House - Veggies, spring onion pancake and fried sweet and sour pork pieces - Chinese Near Me - Markham, Ontario

Food here is consistent and delicious. There's always a line up on the weekends. I am not sure if they take reservations but it is worth the wait regardless. The dumplings here are made fresh and the dough to meat portion is perfect.The dough is not overly thick and doughy or paper thin. Be careful, the steam dumplings are hot! The only thing I feel iffy about is that they reuse the parchment paper lining for the steamer. I'm sure others have probably touched it with their chopsticks.... Nonetheless, service is quick and efficient and a great place to grab a quick bite. read more

Based on reviews I tried this place. (I also accidentally thought it was my regular place but called and ordered by mistake, felt bad cancelling so attempted it) I found it way to doughy the filling had little flavour. And it was covered it oil. I got 1: pan fried meat dumpling, and 1 pan fried and chives dumpling. Both were equally as disappointing. I never finished. For a large hot and sour soup, was so disappointed to see tomatoes in it. It was mainly water and tasted of water. When you order pick up they don't understand English. Which is fine, but a server or worker should speak enough English to order over the phone. I won't be back. read more

Used to be one of my lunch spots, one of my coworkers really liked dumplings. Have not been here for a while, in the neighborhood today so in I dropped. Food were still decent though price was inched up. The pork sauerkraut soup was tasteful, the trace amount of sesame oil added to the soup was a flaw. The steamed pork chinese cabbage dumplings were perfectly prepared. The crispy pork was crispy and flavorful. However, the batter was too thick and the meat was too thin. The service was great. The ambience was, let us just ignore the ambience here. read more

Came to this place for dinner with a group of 5. The restaurant is quite small and it was quite busy but luckily we got a seat right away. We all shared the hot and sour soup, egg and leek dumpling, a meat dumpling and a couple of other small dishes. The price for the food is pretty cheap but I wouldn't say this place is very special. read more

Chinese Dumpling House is solid but unspectacular place for dumplings that will get it done when you're craving dumplings. I would come here for a cheap, no frills kind of Chinese meal. Their menu is very English friendly so those who don't know Chinese can actually get by easily! But the best part is that their menu is really comprehensive in terms of having pictures for many of their items, which corresponds to the number on the ordering sheet. Good stuff! $6.50 for 15 dumplings in many varieties seem like a pretty good deal. We tried the beef and radish, and and some pork dumplings, and well as the larger pan-fried dumplings, and beef noodles. For the dumplings, the beef ones were definitely better than the pork ones and they were way juicier, not only with the soup inside them, but also in terms of the meat itself. The pan-fried dumplings were very good as well but could be a tad crispier. The beef noodles were also good, however beef and vegetables were on the skimpier side. Then again, it was only around $7 for a large portion. No real complaints with this place, it's not going to impress but if you're craving dumplings and are in the vicinity, Chinese Dumpling House is a safe choice to come to. read more

I've been here numerous times as its relatively close to my home. I usually get the pork w/ celery or pork w/ cabbage dumplings. It comes freshly made in batches of 15 for $6.99. The dumplings aren't spectacular but it does the job when I crave for it. The skin is just slightly thicker than I'd prefer but the filling and soup inside are done well. At times, I also order their sweet & sour fish on rice and preserved egg w/ tofu. The fish is lightly battered and fried so its not too greasy, and the preserved egg w/ tofu is refreshing albeit being an acquired taste. 3.5 stars overall and cash only. read more

This is a great dumpling house that's good for young crowds or for family. Prices are super-slightly more expensive than regular dumplings restaurants. Service is speedy. Table space is good. Decor is not the highlight here but rather the variety of awesome Asian cuisine. My dish recommendation: Lamb Dumplings. Nice starter meal and comes in crowd-quantity. read more

This place is Asian dumpling heaven! Be prepared to load up on tons of carb goodness. They have almost every kind of dumpling and fried doughy goodness. You can get a tray of dumplings (15) pieces for 6.50, which to me is such a decent price, I feel one is enough for a person already. Of course you could get dumplings from the T&T nearby but it just doesn't seem as fresh. You can see some Asian ladies at the front making the dumplings on the spot. I haven't tried their other entree dishes but everyone just seems to eat their dumplings I really recommend the pan fried pork dumplings, in the picture it is the long one that has a golden crisp on it. Remember They only accept cash and there's two ATMs in the plaza one of which is HSBC. read more

Theres an old man who works there (maybe owns the place?) that walks around cleaning tables, and serving people. Hes super nice! We had a 3 or 4 dishes coming, including a hot pot, and so he he was thoughful enough to move us from a small table to a bigger table that was much more comfortable. We got the beef and mushroom hot pot and if I remember correctly its less than $15.00. It was such a good deal though. There was a lot of meat and the broth was tasty. We ordered two types of dumplings (15 dumplings/order @ $8/order). My favourite were the lamb dumplings. I havent had a lamb dumpling before, but they were awesome. They are pretty soupy when they first come so dont burn yourself like I did! I popped it in my mouth not realizing how hot it was.. I had a toddler moment when i had to spit it back out Also the egg and chive dry pancake was soo good. At first I wasnt sure what I felt about it, but after a couple bites I was really into it. Good place. A VERY filling meal for two for $35 read more

Nice little place in the Metro Square plaza if you're in the mood for some cheap Chinese food. There are pictures beside many of the items on the menu which helps a lot if you don't know Chinese. I got the fried noodles which were pretty basic. Didn't taste like much unless I added A LOT of soy sauce, vinegar sauce, or hot sauce to it. I specifically came for the dumplings because I read such great reviews about it - ordered the pan fried pork dumplings (6 pcs) and the beef and raddish dumplings (15 pcs). Very reasonable prices, as the whole bill came to $20 for my friend and I. We were full at the end with leftovers. The dumplings were okay, no complaints, but not something I would go around raving about. As for the service, the workers seem nice but don't talk to you much. It's really difficult to communicate if you don't know Cantonese or Mandarin. Awkward! read more
