I believe they have recently changed their name to dumpling house. Or maybe they have recently changed from dumpling house to Yamato sushi house. I'm not sure which. Their sign out front says dumpling house and their menu still says Yamato sushi house. Identity crisis, no? We went in thinking this was dumpling house so we ordered dumplings. I was craving some soup, dumplings, and shrimp hao gaos. At around 13 bucks each, they were quite good. And just because I don't quite feel full with having just dumplings for dinner, we also ordered their fried rice noodles. The pictures really don't do justice for this amazing dish. They don't have fried rice on their menu, but this noodle dish tasted just like fried rice And smelled like it too. Hubby and I were really pleasantly surprised. We added a chicken to the dish, but if coming back, I will stay with just a noodles without adding protein. Our server who was Chinese, spoke very fast, and I had a hard time understanding everything he was trying to explain. But he was very eager, very nice, and very excited about us trying different foods. As it was Chinese New Year's week when we went in, he told us to try their special New Year's soup and that he was really really good. In fact, he was saying this to everyone who came in. The soup was about $13, but not big like a bowl of pho. It came in the medium size bowl, clear broth, with a bunch of mini dumplings inside. It's really not something that I would normally order, especially after ordering two orders of dumplings, but I must say the taste was pretty good. Would I have it again? I will have to remember not to get pushed over by the nice enthusiastic server. Since we didn't know, this was a sushi place going in. I had no sushi and don't necessarily think I will. I hope they figure out their identity and stick to one thing. So far, I am happy with their dumplings and their fried rice noodle.

I like big buns and I cannot lie.

Date of visit: December 9, 2024 I needed a place open on a Monday for lunch in the western Wauwatosa-area, not an easy feat! I came across Dumpling House and was glad that I did, as it was an overall great meal. The place was deserted, save for one other table, but that didn't bother us. The club music soundtrack was an interesting and unexpected addition to the meal, though neither I nor my boss minded it. They were known for their dumplings, so of course we got those. Outside of the burping I did after the meal, they were quite tasty. My chicken teriyaki was decent; didn't love the bed of onions that it came on (definitely should have mentioned that on the menu) but other than that, it had a good flavor and the chicken tasted fresh. There was definitely enough to take for a second meal as well, which I always appreciate.

Baby it was cold outside today. But the soup dumplings warmed my insides for sure. They were perfectly presented and very tasty. Comfortable seating and good service.

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.

Unforgettable dining experience at Dumpling House! Tried a variety on the menu like buns, dumplings, sushi, soup, and more. Great atmosphere and an amazing staff running the restaurant. You can't miss with anything you pick. Great flavor and well prepared. Ask for the house soup!

Honestly mid. The shrimp dumplings were good! But the udon soup lacked flavor and the tempura shrimp were doughy between the crispy outside and shrimp core. The staff was nice but ordering felt a bit rushed. We were the last/only customers that night so maybe it was just an off night. I'd maybe comeback to try more dumpling options but nothing else was worth coming back for.

Bbq pork buns

Stopped by Dumpling House on an early Saturday evening for dinner. It was early enough in the evening (5:30ish) that the dinner crowd hadn't arrived yet, so it was just my dining companion and I and a couple other occupied tables. We started things off with drinks. I ordered a Manhattan and my dining companion opted for a beer. Though I ordered a Manhattan, I received a French Martini (which was a shock to the taste buds as by the color, I didn't notice right away that it wasn't a Manhattan!). When I was in my early 30's, French Martinis were my jam. They were my go-to order so, while it wasn't what I ordered--I did appreciate the opportunity to reminisce a bit! We ordered their bbq pork buns to share and for my main, I got their teriyaki salmon. The pork buns were solid and the teriyaki salmon was delish. It was perfectly cooked and came with ample sauteed vegetables. It was bursting with flavor. My dining companion got the chicken teriyaki which came and was such a large portion, she was able to take half home. Their prices are reasonable ($7.95 for cocktails? Is this real life?) and the service was efficient. Get to it!

Wonton in Chili Oil
Danica V.

God I love dumpling house- I was recently in the east coast for a wedding where I ate my fill in lobster rolls and oysters and when I was back to the Midwest I was CRAVING Asian food, and Dumpling House always hits the spot. I recently ordered their dumplings to go and they were still delicious and fresh! One side note: DO NOT order online as I had spoken with the owner and she notified me their online ordering system doesn't work so they don't receive the orders in time, definitely call to make an order!

Pork Xiaolongbao

Really good bao and other Asian dishes. The bento lunchbox was a nice variety of items and super filling. They also have a great cocktail menu and really reasonable drink prices. Can't wait to go back!

Wontons in "chili oil" aka slightly spicy peanut butter sauce
Joanna T.

We stopped at the Dumpling House for dinner last night , and it was fine. The inside hasn't really changed from Yamato, and in fact the whole Yamato menu is available, they've just added dumplings and buns. We started with pork wontons in chili oil - just no. The sauce had nothing to do with chili oil at all. It was a slightly sweet peanut butter glaze with very little heat. I wasn't expecting peanut sauce and wouldn't have ordered them had I known. If you love peanut butter you might feel differently. My husband had a volcano roll that he described as "ok". It didn't look like much in the presentation department. Finally, the xiao long bao which are made in house. The dumpling skins were light and delicate, and the pork filling was really good. There was very little broth though, and it lacked that porky unctuous-ness - it was thin and again, a little sweet. Not bad at all, but Momo Mee is way better. Service was great - lightning fast! Would I go back? Probably not, it was just okay for me.

Pork Xiaolongbao & Leak and Pork and Shrimp Steamed
Lico J.

We enjoyed the juicy dumplings and meat buns that were fresh and hot out of kitchen here. The Xiaolongbao with the specialty house-made dumpling sauce had meat soup inside the thin dough and the sauce really gave them a nice sweet garlic kick. Highly recommend it. The chicken popcorns were crispy and not very salty so tasted good to us who prefer lighter seasoning. The leek and pork buns and shrimp and pork dumplings were less impressive but still tasted homey. The shrimp and pork dumplings even had real shrimp on top - which is no traditional as the shrimp is usually mixed into the pork to create a slightly seafood taste and I personally would have enjoyed that traditional flavor more. But still, we enjoyed the freshness here. They also sell frozen cooked meat buns if you want to get a bunch to take home. We steamed and ate them in the morning and loved the juicy and yummy breakfast.

What can I say?! I'm so glad the restaurant changed ownership because I purposefully never went to…read morefusion cafe because they sold sushi Chinese food . I came here after my friend suggested that their northern Chinese cuisine was excellent and I was right to listen to them and went to Fusion Cafe for the first time. My partner and I love the cumin lamb and sautéed string beans from Sze Chuan restaurant, so we decided to try the same thing here to compare the two restaurants. I can say that their cumin lamb is fantastic and they definitely give more lamb than other ingredients, compared to Sze chain where you will often get more jalapeños than lamb. As for the string beans, I prefer Sze chuan restaurant's version more, though it was also very good here. The other two dishes we got were both recommended by the waitress and they did not miss. God, the handmade noodles in the pork and pepper sauce were SO GOOD, the noodles were the most QQ noodles I've had in Milwaukee and I can't wait to come back for more. The sweet sour pork was also good but it the coating could have a little more flavor or it can be offered with more sauce on the side. Nevertheless I still enjoyed every bite. I'm so glad to have tried the restaurant, can't wait to go back.

I have tried to like their food here but every time I've tried I have been disappointed. Their crab…read morerangoons were....interesting. I usually have a worry that they will be too creamy from the cream cheese cause that is almost always why I end up not liking them from a place, but theirs was like oddly clumped together, not at ALL creamy??? Still have no idea what that texture was. The broccoli dish was okay too, hard to mess up! The service was just fine no complaints there.

To start off, I ordered plum wine, which of course was delicious. For our appetizer we ordered the pan fried gyoza. It was so light and airy absolutely delicious. Now for the main course, I went with the pineapple fried rice with chicken. I have to say this is the best pineapple fried rice I have had from any Thai restaurant. The curry powder is strong here, which is my favorite. It came with a side of Thai chili sauce which was definitely a unique surprise, but I absolutely loved it. It complimented the dish very well. My boyfriend went with the pad Thai. It was also absolutely delicious. He ate the whole thing. Now I will say I didn't finish my dish and took the rest home however it seems the waiter took offense and asked me if there was something wrong with the fried rice! I was definitely shocked and I said no it was absolutely delicious, but I just can't finish it. It was definitely a awkward moment to be asked that especially in front of other people in the restaurant. I certainly was not complaining about anything. I was thoroughly enjoying my meal. So yes, I was a little disappointed by that interaction and hoping if other people don't finish their meals that they're going to be questioned. If I didn't like my meal, I wouldn't be asking for her to go box that's for sure. I'm not knocking any stars for that of course.... I had a great time. We enjoyed our food and drinks. The waiter was working very hard. It started getting really busy and he was apologizing for the delay because it did take a while for our food to come out. We will definitely be returning, and I am excited to try another dish off their menu.
