The food, the service, the atmosphere. Loved it all. They make the dumplings in front of a glass window so you can see them preparing the various dumplings. The food comes out as it is ready which is so nice. They have a huge menu, something for anyone who loves dumplings, buns, and traditional dishes. We shared the pork soup dumplings (so so delicious) the broth was flavorful and the filling was plentiful. We also had the fried pork buns which are little fluffy packages of heaven. The best lunch I have ever had and it was incredibly inexpensive. In today's world to find food you can watch being prepared from scratch and it's a very good bang for your buck is rare! This place gets busy and because of reviews we got there right at 11 and by 11:30 they had a line out the door. But worth the wait!! read more

Tried to stop in once before, and the wait was way too long. Came back at 5:30 on a weekday and walked right to a table. The order: pan-fried pork buns, soup dumplings, wontons, twice-cooked pork, and diced chicken with hot peppers. The dumplings are the reason to come. All three were excellent. Even the dumpling sauce was memorable. Balanced in a way that's hard to pin down, not vinegar-forward, not chili-forward, just right. The entrées were a step behind. The twice-cooked pork and the diced chicken with hot peppers were fine, but I think there's better Sichuan in town. Solid stir-fries, just not what I'd come back for. My advice: come for the dumplings and order a couple of rounds. read more

On recommendation of family we tried the Corner Dumpling House for dinner on a Friday night. The wait time for no reservation was about 30min and well worth the wait. Service was excellent (Tommy) and the speed of kitchen was FAST! The quality of the pork soup dumplings and spicy Beef bun appetizers were excellent. We finished with Beef and Scallions and Chicken Mei Fun which were equally delicious. The bill was fair as the portions were huge and we will multiple meals from our order. I will be back! read more

I expected to love this place more than I did after reading all the stellar reviews and hearing that people wait for 2+ hours for a table. We had skipped lunch, so arrived at 4pm to try to avoid the Friday night crowd. They weren't busy at all and in fact, sat my husband and I at a 6 top which was kind of odd since there were 2 tops available, but not being crowded in was nice. The decor is cute-I especially like the big dumpling statue in the entry. The server was very friendly and brought us drinks immediately. They use plain metal cups that kind of look like the cups milkshakes are made in. We ordered a couple of dim sum items and a side of edamame. Everything was good, but I didn't seem to like it as well as others have. read more

I absolutely cannot say enough great things about this place! It truly is one my top five places to eat in the area, and I will recommend it to everyone! We got a few small (but not really small!) plates to share as well as some dumplings! They were out of some things, but our server Jenny gave us some recommendation and I'm glad she did! The green beans were literally my favorite! You can't go wrong with any of the dumplings on the menu, but I do think the Shanghai Shumai was the best! Next time I go, I will try one of the dry pots because those looked like they'd be phenomenal! The restaurant itself is so cute! And I like how they have the window where you can watch the chefs make the dumplings by hand. I think they are quite proud of their craft, and rightfully so! Keep in mind that you will probably have to wait, so get there earlier than you expect to eat. I promise though, the wait is 100% worth it! read more

Incredible. I've been on a really impressionable kick where if someone says a type of food to me I immediately crave it. We have friends that said they got dim sum, so I was determined to find a great dim sum place near where we were staying. This place is it. We got all sorts dumplings. Everything we tried was amazing. Our favorite one that I am still dreaming about and drooling over are the pork wontons in chili oil. I have zero self control around a good chili oil/crisp, and this dish absolutely delivered. That being said, order whatever speaks to you because I promise it is going to be amazing. We came on a Saturday night relatively late (for us!) and it took a little while for us to get a table. We're so glad we waited! The locale is really cool on the inside, with some views into the kitchen and all the hard work going on in there. The parking situation is a non-issue with plenty of spots available in the area. The staff was super cool and super helpful with recommendations. If we lived nearby we would be wearing this place out! Absolutely come try if you haven't read more

So I went for lunch today & was able to get in. After some researching, I went with the drunken noodles with beef & wontons in chili oil. The entree came out - literally - 6 minutes after I ordered, big portion. The wontons came out a few minutes after that & holy cow! These are a must get if you go but be careful - they have a slow heat that builds. My only knock for -1 star was the reception I got from the hostesses when I walked in was colder than a kiss from the in-laws. They literally looked annoyed to take me to a table & there were 3 working. No greeting, no how many, just grabbed a menu & presumed I was to follow. I'm glad I was able to get in & taste what the hype was. I'd hit it...again. read more

Highly recommend for soup dumplings and Szechuan food. The restaurant was busy on a Monday night and we had to wait 30 minutes for a table. No complaints about the service. The food came out quick for how busy it was. All our food came out at once, so we ran out of space on the table (not a big deal). Next time we'll order a few dishes at a time. We ordered a few soup dumplings, which were absolutely delicious. The shanghai shumai was good, but not what we were expecting as it was primarily sticky rice with a little bit of ground pork mixed in. The sichuan crispy fillet was a favorite of ours with the perfect of amount of spice. The yang chow fried rice and west lake beef soup were good, but not something I would order again. read more

Solid 4 stars for this place that is literally a current obsession in Cincy! I do understand the hype as the food is pretty good and traditional (even if some of the dumplings could be better and more flavourful), but for this city not having proper valid alternatives is still a very hot spot to try. Our server Cody was quick and helpful, and the place itself has a nice atmosphere. read more

Came here at 3:00 on a Saturday and waited about 30 minutes for a table for 2. Inside the restaurant was chaotic. Lots of staff but they're going every which way. Not warm and fuzzy. Tables crammed in a small space. Service was fine. Food comes out sporadically- you're never sure when you will get a dish. Our favorite dish was the wontons in chili oil. The "famous" soup dumplings weren't for us. Maybe we got a bad batch? The slimy almost undercooked interior was not good. We did like the green beans and drunken noodles. Mixed feelings on this place. read more

So we first came here on a Saturday evening. We thought that if we got there around 5pm, the wait wouldn't be too bad. It was over an hour. We came back the next day, Sunday, at 2pm thinking it would be less wait. Wrong! It was still a 46 min wait- but well worth it! We started with the chili oil pork dumplings and they were amazing! Then we had the chicken fried rice and it was the best I've ever had. Hands down! Such a good Smokey flavor. We tried the soup dumpling and it was very good but harder to eat. I think the non-soup ones are my favorites. We also tried a fried beef dumpling and it was also very good. Only minor complaint is they are not good at refilling drinks. They do have really good Diet Coke, nice and cold in a metal cup. This will become one of our regular places on rotation, when we don't mind waiting. Definitely recommend ! read more

You know a place is good when it's busy on a Wednesday night! We walked in thinking it would not be a wait. Boy, were we mistaken! The wait for a party of 6 was 25-30 minutes. There are no seats for waiting but we did not mind waiting near the display glass where we watched the employees making the dumplings. It was so cool to see the process. While we waited, we looked at the menu. Once seated, we knew exactly what we wanted and ordered right away. Our waiter Joseph was very knowledgable and helpful. Everything came out so quick. The flavors were on point and great portion sizes. GET THE STRING BEANS! They were my absolute favorite. So flavorful, garlicky and not too greasy. I am thinking about them right now and wanting more. I ordered the Triple Delight with the shrimp, beef and chicken. The shrimp in this dish was my favorite and I think next time I would see if I could get the shrimp with that sauce because the sauce was amazing. The dry pot with lamb was the star of the show. My daughter ordered that and we all loved the taste of the lamb. Lot of veggies which balanced out having all the dumpling haha. The pomegranate strawberry lemonade was phenomenal! 10/10 Very extensive menu with too much to choose from. I absolutely loved the chopsticks and wanted some to take home, so the owner was nice enough to let us take a pair. Will definitely be back the next time I'm in Cincy! Thank yall! read more

Corner Dumpling House is a gem of a restaurant serving up tasty dim sum and many other flavorful dishes that are sure to wow you. Our group of 6 split black truffle fried rice (yummm), the fried tofu, two orders of soup dumplings, dry mushroom pot, spicy fried fish, and a pot of hot tea. Every single dish we had was delicious and hearty. Service was quick and oh so friendly! Parking is ample and easy to access. The inside is super cute and large enough that you could bring a bigger sized group with no problems. If I lived nearby I would celebrate my birthday here!! read more

Amazing food. I can't recall the last time I had dim sum, but this didn't disappoint. Our table for 3 was filled to the max with plates! Prices are so reasonable you'll want to try several things. My friends said their pork items were amazing and better than the beef items. I got the vegetable dumplings which were perfectly cooked and seasoned, great umami flavor. I wanted to order the peanut noodles but the server talked me out of it. Instead I got the Mei fun vegetarian which is usually my favorite at Chinese restaurants; this one was ok but needed some sort of sauce. I ended up using the dumpling sauce in the table and it was perfect. I also go the fried sesame balls, another favorite, and they were the perfect size and texture and well-cooked. As far as wait times go, we went at 730 on a Friday night and waited an hour. There were people crowding the front door and desk area and you could tell the staff was annoyed. It was cold out and there's no waiting room, so we walked around Fresh Thyme across the street to stay out of the way. On the flip side, we ordered our food and it came out so fast! I couldn't believe it was already coming to our table after 5 minutes, I thought it was premade or something but everything was too fresh. Next time I will try the peanut noodles and won't be talked out of it! Would return. read more

This place has the best dumplings in Ohio. Genuinely, every bite was irresistible. The food was so good I forgot to get pictures of it before I demolished it. You can tell everything is made in house by how fresh it is. I got the spicy beef dumplings, chicken dumplings, and sweet rice cake with brown sugar. Truthfully this is the fastest service I've ever received in my life not even after 10 minutes of putting in my order we got our first entree with the place to be very busy. On top of that all the food came out hot. Very decent and reasonable price points for the quality you get. The only downside is that at the moment they do not accept reservations and you have to be put on a waitlist but the weight is well worth it. This Resturant deserves all the business that it's getting and I'm so happy this opened in the suburbs! read more

The place never disappoints. We thought we'd have to wait 20mins or so but a table opened up while we were putting in our names. The food comes out staggered and is great for family style eating. Sharing is caring when it domes to food. The place is lovely and smells delicious throughout. The ambience is one of happy eating and great conversation. If you want a quiet location, this may not be the place for you. This is a filling place. read more

Went in with a group of 12 and was given the big booth in the back after a short wait. As you walk in you're greeted by watching them make the dumplings by hand. The service was amazing, super fast especially for our large group. I've never had soup dumplings before but these have set a high standard. Everything was so fresh. We also did the drunken noodles, it was nothing special but that's ok, we were so full from the dumplings and pork buns we didn't care. Even the green bean appetizers were great.

Corner dumpling house is the it place to get dumplings! The Fresh ingredients and made to order dumplings combined with the cozy interior will have you planning your return visit before you leave. We tried a couple of their dishes but they weren't anything special compared to the dumplings. We tried the steamed vegetable, the steamed pork and the pan fried chicken, as well as the truffle soup dumplings. My kids kept asking for more! I also recommend the strawberry matcha! We left at 7:00 on a Thursday and the line was out the door to be seated so I recommend getting there early! read more

Ordered carryout online even though I had a 20 minute drive ahead of me once I picked up my order. The dim sum is excellent. Well deserved rep for this place! So I had to nuke my steamed pork soup dumplings and my steamed chicken dumplings once I got home. Still very good! But I will dine in next time and get the soup dumplings.... Even at 1:45 on a Tuesday this place was buzzing. You can watch them make the dumplings as you wait for a table. Cool. read more

Everything was phenomenal! I highly recommended this. read more

I was pleasantly surprised on how good this place is. I'm from Southern California where there is a crazy amount of authentic Chinese/dim sum establishments so my expectations were fairly low. I was expecting some okay quality dumplings and food but I was blown away. The owners did an amazing job in creating such a good Chinese/dim sum restaurant as well as the vibe here. Ok, so here's what we ordered.. Shanghai shumai - I never had this before but this was good. My toddler loved it - it's very different than your traditional shumai. Lots more spices! Pork soup dumpling - very good and incredibly fresh! Also a really nice size dumpling - the soup has a good flavor and was not bland. Truffle soup dumpling - surprisingly very good, I typically like to compare any truffle soup dumpling to DTF (IYKYK) and if DTF's truffle dumpling is a 10/10 - theirs is a 8/10. Twice cooked pork - okay so let me tell you, this is one of my favorite Szechuan dishes of all time. There's this place in Southern California I used to go to but it closed many years ago. So I've been on the search for this specific dish anytime I'm at a Chinese restaurant. I've had a lot of different ones and I will have to say that they're twice cooked Pork here is top notch. I would come back here literally just for this. Great place - highly recommend! Very happy there's a place like this in Cincinnati now! read more

The service was ok. We didn't get refills and we didn't get all of our food until we asked but to the waitress's credit, she did think to ask. They also brought out the sesame balls with red bean paste out early even though we were told they would bring it out at the end. The food was good. Fried rice was well laden. Dumplings pretty much all tasted the same regardless of which one you ordered. The waiting area is also odd. The gate is on the opposite side of the entrance. They didn't have the shade umbrellas setup either and the area was dirty. So just some minor details that could improve. read more

My family came after hearing a lot of good things about this new xiaolongbao spot. It was busy and we had a 25-minute wait time. The cold appetizer we ordered, Beef Tendons and Tripe, was probably the best dish we got. We got two orders of the soup dumplings: regular pork and black truffle pork. They were good, but pricey which makes sense because there are not really other soup dumpling places in Cincinnati (that I know of!). Unfortunately, that signature Sichuan flavor and spice was missing from many of the dishes. The taste of the Sizzling Japanese Tofu with Dices of Seafood and Bass Fillet Boiled with Hot Chili Oil were honestly exactly the same and there was no distinct flavor, just a very lacking and bland sauce. The assorted Mushrooms Dry Pot was fine, but also just lacking in flavor other than... mushroom. The onions underneath were also not cooked enough (too raw) even after letting them sit in the hot wok for a while. Overall, I'd come here to order soup dumplings if I really had the craving, but maybe not the other dishes. read more

Meh. The service is rushed. Drop & run. The couple of dumplings ordered were authentic. Tried to order entrees... the fried rice entree came about 30 minutes later and was basically mush.

Corner Dumpling House was a great meal for a cold winter day! I left feeling very full and satisfied. I began with the pork wontons in chili oil. I could have continued eating plate after plate. The chili oil was not only spicy but had a great garlic flavor too. They were the best part of my meal. I also had the chives pancakes. They contained an egg inside which was a nice surprise. I finished the meal off with both pan fried and soup dumplings. The pork in both were excellent. I preferred the pan fried and soup little more than the soup however. The service was super quick without being intrusive. I was seated within seconds after walking in the door at lunchtime on a Sunday. Corner Dumpling House is a must visit! read more

My first advice to others is not to park in the small driveway in front of the building -- it was tightly congested, with a lot of haphazard and dangerously creative parking (I almost got hit by someone backing out on the way out). Better to park in the much larger Harper's Station lot and walk to the restaurant. The second piece of advice is to come early or on a "less-travelled day," as they don't take reservations and this Saturday night at 5:00 p.m. there was a logjam of customers in the lobby waiting for a table. The third piece of advice is not to let those first two details stop you from coming to this amazing restaurant!! The wait staff are kind and friendly, the rooms are warm and comfy, and the food is absolutely spectacular! My favorite was the Kung Pao chicken -- this was the authentic recipe, with tender plump cuts of dark meat chicken, with freshly-cut vegetables and peanuts in a slightly spicy sauce. I also enjoyed the "Hunan Flavor Stir Fried with Pork," a combination of tender pork with thin slices of mushrooms. The mushrooms were sliced like the pork so it melded with the dish, and the flavors were deliciously complementary with each other. For dessert, I got the sesame balls, which were perfectly fried: crispy on the outside, sweet & soft on the inside. All in all, the meal reflected the restaurant itself -- authentic, family-owned, and full of heart, despite the crowded circumstances! read more

Worth the hype. We showed up at 5 PM and there was already a 30 minute wait. Definitely get here early and put your name down! Host will take your phone number and you'll be able to access a virtual queue. It's helpful to see how many parties are ahead of you. Once you get a table, the long wait ends there. We ordered quite a few dishes and they all came out surprisingly fast. Everything was hot and fresh. Standout dishes were the dry hot pot fish and soup dumplings. Staff were working at full capacity and did a great job with service. If you're not pressed for time, definitely worth a visit! read more

Super busy place but excellent food. Everything we have ordered has been excellent. Although busy, the service is very good.

Great first visit for lunch--the renovation in the space is quite trendy and I like the visibility to the making process in the front. Ordered the crab and pork soup dumplings, pan fried spicy beef bun (not so spicy), and wontons in chili oil (our fav!). Overall the quality of dough was on point and the fillings were not bad. Easy parking and fast service for a great meal! read more
