We almost missed this spot since it's right off a busy highway, but I'm so glad we didn't! We arrived right when they opened, so it was nice and quiet. The restaurant is very clean, spacious, and visually appealing. The food was absolutely delicious. We ordered a variety of dumplings along with a few stir-fry dishes, and everything was cooked and seasoned perfectly. My personal favorite was the eggplant in garlic sauce--it was incredible. My family loved the dry stir-fry green beans, and the crab and pork soup dumplings were a hit for all of us. Service was excellent. Our waitress was very attentive and helped guide us through the menu, which made the experience even better. Everything came out hot and fresh. Overall, such a great experience. This will definitely be our new go-to spot whenever we're in the area! read more

Food and ambiance here was excellent. Service was good but not enough waiters. I went on Sunday and they had dim sum. I tried the spicy eggplant. Freakin tasty as hell.... Must try. It was crispy and delicious and had me thinking I could live as a vegan maybe.... Seriously one of the best things I'd tasted in a long time. The dumplings and squid were just ok. I've had better. But I have a feeling this menu is hiding some seriously flavorful food that needs exploration. read more

We once again found ourselves in the mood for Asian food, and were quite close to U Dumpling. It was early for dinner so we were the only customers in the restaurant, though there were some patrons there for takeout. Having become somewhat familiar with the menu, we ordered: Pork & Mushroom Siu Mai (6pcs):12.95 Pork & Chive Dumpling (6pcs) Pan Fried): 10.95 House Lo Mein Chicken & Pork: 14.95 Scallion Pancake: 8.95 As usual the Siu Mai and Pork Dumpling were excellent. This was the first time we tried the Lo Mein, and we very much enjoyed the dish, it was hot, light and tasty. We were disappointed with the Scallion Pancakes and would try something else on our next visit. Service was pretty good (a little slow bringing the check). Overall 4.5 stars rounded up to five. We'd be happy to return. read more

Was here on a Saturday night with a group of seven and had no advance reservation. We called before going and were told that there would be space. After a bit of a wait, we were seated at a table. Between the seven of us, we ordered two chicken soup dumplings, dry pot chicken, general gau's chicken, sweet & sour chicken, orange chicken, deep fried shrimp & chive dumplings, a scorpion bowl, and the sparerib in black bean sauce. The food came out as it was ready. As the name of the place suggests, the dumplings were good. The portions are large and some of the dishes were more fried than expected. read more

Westbound, hungry, and driving through an unusually slow traffic, it was only a matter of time before my itching fingers and fiendishly famished stomach determined the next course of action. Swerved off the next exit, pulled up a list of nearby restaurants, rerouted, and floored it. Fudge it. Hungry. Don't care. Hungry. Just drive like another M@$$hole and get this nonsense over with. U Dumpling House had immediately caught my attention. I couldn't recall where I had read about it but it was positive. Now that it's just a few minutes away from where I was, why the heck not? Dimsum and soup dumplings? Can't go wrong right? Then again, I don't ever remember anyone this hungry complain about anything in the moment until *way* after the meal... So I rapidly ordered away like it was my last meal before I met my maker. Stuck to the usual choices to see their take on classic dim sum dishes. Best part? Food didn't take long at all to trickle in straight from the kitchen (no dim sum cart here, as expected). While the preparation was slightly different from what I've been accustomed to for the last few decades, I found their style both pleasant and tasty. At least, most of it was...and I would have given them 5 stars easily if it wasn't for a few missteps that I can't let slide. Dry Sautéed String Beans. As good as your version is...the word "dry" means a particular technique that does not involve blanching the beans. I expected something but received something else. That one step has a different texture and matters to those who know this dish well. Moreover, I expected the soup dumplings, which you are famous for, to stand out. I can't say it did and that's me being nice. Anyways, I definitely recommend anyone in the immediate area craving Chinese food or dim sum to at least try them out once. You may end up being one of those several regulars there that day that obviously frequent this place. read more

My 11 year old fell in love with soup dumplings on daytrip to Chinatown, so I was thrilled to find a place in the suburbs that have yummy soup dumplings. It has a nice atmosphere, friendly staff, and a pretty big menu for a dumpling place if you want more than dumplings. Recommend if you are looking for dumplings and they have vegan friendly options too. read more

Excellent meal. All of us really liked everything we had ordered. So good that there were no leftovers to take home.

This is dumpling HEAVEN! Me and my boyfriend are always searching for authentic tasting dumplings in MA and finally stumbled upon this place. The pan seared pork and chive dumplings are irresistibly crispy, savory, soft and topped with the slightly sweet dipping sauce to make the most succulent bite. We also got pork soup dumplings, sautéed flat noodles with beef, and dry sautéed string beans. Each dish was absolutely DELECTABLE and so gourmet tasting. Our waitresses each time were extremely kind and attentive the entire meal. The area is super clean and such a nice looking interior as well. I will always return here when i'm in the area for these dumplings. read more

Celiac and gluten sensitive foodies rejoice! Everything about this place is amazing! I have never seen such an extensive allergen friendly menu and the team is so wonderfully conscientious . The chef came over to our table one time to talk about the safe ingredients they use and their plan to expand menu offerings. Yesterday I ordered delivery (everything but one dish gluten free which was for my non allergic son) and they CALLED to let me know one of the dishes would not be safe for me to eat. Incredible level of thoughtfulness and care that I am so thankful for. You absolutely must try this place! read more

First, when I saw they had gluten-free crab Rangoon, if you know you know! I am a celiac and I travel 50 minutes for delicious Chinese food. I almost cried having my first bite of crab Rangoon after four years of not having any. The waitress was so caring and sweet and understanding. Everything was fresh. The prices are very reasonable for gluten-free. Highly recommend this gem. read more

Rating this is a bit difficult, as the food was great, the place has a wood motif for decorations, which was attractive, but the service was lacking. We ordered two orders of the assorted soup dumplings (6 pieces each a different flavor) and the spicy pork belly, and two drinks. This came out to be $72. Still debating on whether that was too much for the experience; slightly leaning more towards too expensive. But the dumpling were good. Couldn't really tell the flavors apart too much, as the mixtures within all seemed the same. But still, the taste was great. The cold pork belly caught us off guard, bc pork is usually hot, but this was served chilled over sliced cucumber, and a sweet and tangy oily sauce. This too was good, but also weird to be served cold pork. The previous reviews were right, the dumplings do take longer to serve, so it was a good thing the pork belly came out first. But there was very little genuine service from our server, which is why, despite the high praise for food, we will likely not come back. Order take-out from here if you opt to try this place. read more

This place was just ok. We ordered the lobster with ginger and onions, bc it was a great price of $20. This was the best dish we ordered there. It was flavorful, but slightly over cooked. We also got a soup dumpling, which was good, but not anything special. The skin was a bit soft for my taste. We also got a beef rice roll, and this was not good at all. With so many options in that area, we are unlikely to go back. read more

U Dumpling House is a pleasant full menu Chinese restaurant with dim sum available on Saturday and Sundays. We stopped in for lunch on a Saturday and enjoyed it very much. Service was instant and friendly, and the food range from good to Great. We ordered exclusively from the dim sum menu: regular dumplings, soup, dumplings, Chinese greens and sesame balls for dessert. The regular dumplings were good, but not special. The soup dumplings were excellent: outside, savory soup inside, and not too hot to eat. Sesame balls were less sweet than the ones in Chinatown; that was good to me, not as good to my wife. If we're in the area, will definitely be back read more

Rarely get to this area but we stopped in because we were hungry and we love dumplings! The inside is very clean and pleasant. Each unused table has a long stemmed flower atop the table which might be an indication that the table has been cleaned and ready for the next patron-it's a pretty touch. There are cool screen like wrought iron structures with wood cutouts separating the two dining rooms resulting in a cool aesthetic. We started with the boneless spare ribs which were very tasty-very tender and sliced thinly making it very easy to eat. They had a slight sweetness to them -very delicious. We had the pork and chive dumplings and the mixed soup dumplings. Love them all!! Thanks to a previous reviewer who suggested putting the dumpling on the soup spoon, poking holes in the top to allow the steam to escape and then pouring the sauces on top. When biting into the dumpling the soup pours onto the spoon. Such a great tip! The mixed soup dumplings came with a pork, a shrimp & pork, a crabmeat & pork, pork & truffle, chicken and beef. They were all amazing-particularly liked the pork and truffle since the truffle was not overpowering. The chicken broth and the dumpling tasted like chicken soup on a spoon! They all are so cute also! We also got the pork buns to complete our meal and they were also amazing! Sometimes pork buns are dry and doughy to me, but these were perfect! Our server was super friendly and explained menu items with detail. An enjoyable lunch and look forward to going back when we return! read more

Gotta try all the soup dumplings. The "soup" is inside the dumpling. Do not ask where's the soup. Order dumpling soup instead of soup dumpling then. We had pork and leek panfried dumplings. Flavor was good. Crab soup dumpling and beef soup dumplings were good too. I had to teach a couple next table over on how to eat soup dumplings. You grab the dumpling with tongs and put it on your spoon. Poke a hole in the dumpling with your chopstick and release the steam. Spoon some black vinegar with ginger sauce on your dumpling. Cheers with your spoon and try and fit the whole spoonful of soup dumpling in your mouth. And repeat. The cream cheese in the crab Rangoon was HOT! Don't burn your mouth! Salted egg yolk corn was interesting. It was salty and sweet. The salted egg yolk was quite powdery to the taste but addictive. I've never had it or seen it on a menu before but it was good! And the order was larger than expected. Peapod leaves were young and tender. Seafood panfried noodles had a good amount of seafood. The decor was aesthetically clean. Just some areas with steps were awkward. Good food and good service! Will be back for sure! read more

This place caught my eye as I drove by because I love soup dumplings. The egg drop soup was excellent. I tried the 'assorted soup dumplings.' They were very good- just not quite as good as my favorite restaurant. I appreciated the option to order a variety instead of one type. Service was pleasant and timely. There seemed to be many 'regulars' enjoying a variety of dishes. There was a bar area and nice-sized seating area. Good parking. Several employees thanked me as I was leaving- everyone was very pleasant and friendly. read more

This place is awesome! We were passing thru on some college tours, staying at a nearby hotel and found this place on Yelp. So glad we did! Despite its modest outside appearance it's beautiful inside! And the food is spectacular! While we (me and the 17 yo niece) were not terribly adventurous-- what we got was all really fresh and clearly made fresh. The beef with wide noodles, the pan fried pork dumplings.... The black soup dumplings (pork and truffle) and the regular pork soup dumplings were all delicious! My niece also got some great chicken lo mein. We often go for soup dumplings at home and when we travel and these were definitely some of the best we have had. The dishes coming out to nearby tables-- whole fish and other creations were just beautiful. The staff was very friendly and they clearly have some regulars because they were chatting with the staff about different seasonal specials they had enjoyed, etc. so good! Don't hesitate to go here!! read more

It's been over a year since I moved to Marlborough and finally, it seems that I have found my favourite Chinese place. My wife and I decided to try this place on a whim on a random Wednesday evening. I'm so glad we did. We ordered chicken soup dumplings, Singapore vermicelli and Mapo Tofu without pork. Everything was so delicious. Also, their Mapo Tofu is one of the best I have ever had. I do not understand why this place has a lower rating. It should definitely be over 4.5/5. It's a nice little place. It has a cute set up. Friendly and helpful staff. I asked them to make the Singapore Vermicelli without pork and they were able to accommodate the request as well. As far as recommendations go, I would recommend all three dishes that I ordered. I'm definitely going back again to try more dishes from the menu. I am actually looking forward to try their spicy fish filet in broth. read more

Cozy, relaxed atmosphere with exceptional service. The staff does a great job explaining the menu. I have been twice now. I got takeout my first time and ate in today. You wouldn't know that they had just opened. They very much had it together. The food is fresh, made to order, and delicious! The hot and sour soup has a thin but flavorful broth with a nice kick. The soup is overflowing with all the yummy fillers like tofu, wood ear mushrooms, mushrooms, and egg, just to name a few. Very much recommend. I had the pork and crab dumplings. The dumplings were the right thickness, had a great flavor, and had a nice ginger dipping sauce. I got the preserved vegetables and pork belly off of the Chef's Specialties. The pork was extremely tender. The dish had great flavors and truly was amazing. I've had to go the hot and sour soup. I also had the Singapore noodles. This had nice pieces of chicken and shrimp. They made it for me without onions. I really enjoyed it. Their wings are breaded but have a nice flavor throughout. It's definitely a place to checkout. It has some New England style Chinese food as well as authentic. They have dim sum on the weekends! Edit: I have been back, and their dumplings are amazing! The soup dumpling truffle pork was so good! I added pics. read more

Formerly Uncle Cheung's, U Dumpling House is finally open on Route 9 Eastbound in Framingham, just east of the Route 126 exit. The owners of U Dumpling House also operate Aoi up the road. The Chinese menu offerings here include a variety of traditional Chinese dishes, noodle/rice dishes, dumplings & buns, soups, and appetizers. They offer lunch combos with entree, rice, & soup until 2:45 pm on weekdays. Dim sum is also served here on the weekends from 10:30 am to 2:45 pm. The pricing is moderate. They offer full service dine-in and takeout with table seating areas in each side of the space with the bar/takeout counter in the center of the room. I stopped by U Dumpling House for takeout on their first day open. Since I already ate a big lunch at another restaurant, I decided to order something light to bring back home. I ordered the Steamed Pork & Shrimp Dumplings (6 pc - $10.95 plus tax) and the Pan Fried Pork Buns (2 pc - $6.95 plus tax), which took approximately 15 minutes to be all set and bagged. I enjoyed hot dumplings and pork buns with soy dipping sauces in the vehicle. The firm dumplings had good flavors with a nice filling of ground pork, shrimp, and cabbage. The pan-fried pork buns were decent and on the smaller side filled with a liquidy pork filling. I still enjoy the steamed bbq pork buns at other places in the area, like at Dumpling Daughter in Weston. As I was leaving in my vehicle, the owner came outside and apologized for the smaller thsn expected pork buns since they are still trying to get things right on their first day. I was told on the next visit, the pork buns would be larger and on the house too. I will have to check them out again for dim sum on a free weekend. read more

I was excited to try U Dumpling House before an event in the area. We were worried that there would be a wait (around 6pm on a Friday), but the restaurant had a lot of seating available. There was so much that I wanted to order from the menu, and we eventually decided to get 4 different dishes. We got the sauteed sweet pea with garlic ($16.95), which was great! The greens were very fresh and crisp, and they had cut off all of the ends, which we appreciated. The sauce was a mild white sauce with garlic. The serving size was quite large. I would get this again. I also loved the pan fried pork buns ($6.95). They are not sheng jian bao -- they don't have soup or a thin skin -- but they have a really flavorful savory pork filling, a thick baozi skin, and a very tasty oily pan-fried exterior. I would definitely get this again. We saw that there was a Mother's Day special of lobster for $20 instead of $30 so we decided to get a ginger scallion lobster. While the flavor was decent, I didn't love the lobster -- there wasn't a lot of meat and the coating felt a bit gloopy. We basically only had one claw -- the second claw was tiny. I have definitely had better versions of this dish, but for $20 it was pretty good. I wanted to try a variety of their soup dumplings, so we got 2x of the assorted soup dumplings ($14.95 each). I've had versions of this dish before where each of the dumplings are a really vibrant distinct color, but that was not the case for this dish. None of the dumplings really stood out to me, and the skin thickness was irregular between dumplings. I definitely have other places I would rather go to for xiao long bao. We also got the lychee martini, which definitely had a good amount of alcohol in it. I would have preferred a stronger lychee flavor, but this was pretty good. We were overly stuffed by the end of this meal, and we ended up spending around $100 for 2 people. The prices are about what you would expect for Boston (though I thought it might be cheaper in Framingham..). Overall there were some things I enjoyed, but nothing would make me come back to Framingham just for this place. read more
