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

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

This new restaurant is serving up authentic Chinese cuisine with a focus on dumplings. I've had the pleasure of trying several kinds of their dumplings (steamed and pan seared) and a Szechuan fish dish and everything on the menu is fantastic. Even if you are not interested in the dumplings there is a whole nother menu of more traditional lunch / dinner entrees that are equally delicious. What is really cool is you can see them making all of the dumplings through the glass. The food comes out super hot as soon as it's finished cooking. The staff is very nice and it's a great atmosphere inside with a brand new interior decoré. 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

I can't believe I forgot to take pictures of this food but honestly, we were so hungry and the weight was a little long that we scarfed it down. The restaurant is very busy both in decor and attendance. Fully expect to wait unless you were able to make a reservation which I believe they don't do unless you have groups over five. However, the food is absolutely worth the wait! I don't eat pork so I was a little limited in the dumplings that I was able to try, but by far my favorite, were the vegetable dumplings. The chive pancakes were delicious and the fried rice is a must add. My husband really liked the beef truffle fried rice. The beverage menu is great for nonalcoholic cocktails, and beer. If you're a wine drinker go for the Prosecco or a white. Overall, definitely will give this place another go! read more

TL;DR: Great food, would definitely eat here again. Get the dumplings. Food: Delicious. We had the soup dumplings (these had so much soup in them!) and the pan fried dumplings which were both great. The steamed pork buns were good but not on the same level as the dumplings. Service: Service was good, though the food did seem to take a long time to come out. This was only significant because we had timed entry at a nearby event for after dinner. Ambiance: Nice clean area, noise wasn't horrible with most of it being background noise of people talking. Overall: Would definitely go back and recommend to others. read more

We ate dinner here and Cody was our waiter. We wanted to go out with the kids, since it's so close to the holidays. This was an excellent choice. We had the beef and peppers, chicken dry pot, pork belly, crispy chicken with hot peppers, pork dumplings, chicken soup dumplings, and a couple of other items. I'm not quite sure of the names to each dish. The food came out so fast. Everything was hot,fresh, and delicious Our waiter gave us his recommendations and they were perfect. My daughter had the matcha drink and she said it was delicious also. We can't wait to go back!! read more

BEST quality food and service we have ever had in the Cincinnati area over the past 30 years - magnificent!!

This place is fairly new and took over the former Korea House near to Kawa sushi. It's a cute place- they really pulled out all the stops to make it inviting and well, dumpling-centric. As you walk in they have a glass wall where you can watch the cooks prepare the dumplings and steam them. You shouldn't stand too long though as there will probably be a wait and you need to get out of the way since it's a major service artery connecting the two sides of the restaurant. There's a sign and if you missed that, they'll tell you. They're working hard, they need that space. The dining room is comfortable and classy. We went at lunch time today on a Friday and the wait was minimal. Less than 10 minutes overall. Our waiter was very attentive. You're served water to start and they also have various tea drinks that you can order. They don't serve alcohol or if they do, it's not on the regular menus. There's a whole spread of types of dim sum and dumplings you can order. We opted for the fried pork and chive dumplings. They were incredible. You have caddies on the table to mix your own dipping sauce which has vinegar, soy sauce, and chili oil. The chili oil doesn't have the chilis in it, but gave a nice kick. On the other menu, you have a wide selection of Chinese dishes- Sichuan and other more American Chinese. We ordered the "Basa in chili oil" which I think might have been bass fish, but either way was absolutely delicious. It's family style so there is a ton of it. With just those two dishes, we had left overs. Other patrons seemed to embrace the soup dumplings, the spicy tofu, and other various dumplings which undoubtedly will leave plenty of leftovers for later as well. Our waiter was positively delightful and the service was quick and efficient. For the amount of food and the quality, I can't believe our bill was only $32. If you like Sichuan Chili or Kiki sushi's dumplings, I highly recommend trying this place. It will be on our rotation from now on. These dumplings are like Pokemon. I gotta try em all. read more

Corner Dumpling House - Dumplings - Pan Asian Near Me - Cincinnati, Ohio

After hearing about this new soup dumpling restaurant from my friends and Facebook, I was able to try it out, and it did not disappoint! The exterior is unassuming, but once you walk inside, it's spacious and very well decorated in Asian themes. The first thing you see when you walk inside is the area where the homemade dumplings are being made. We ordered a variety of dishes to share, and the food was flavorful and delicious, we ended up ordering a few dishes to go. I'll be back here a lot, especially since it's so close to my office. 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. Just overall not the best experience. It almost seems like they have really really awesome dumplings but the execution is just not there. Would love to give it another go. read more

Definitely recommend checking this place out! Our waiter was very friendly and gave great recommendations. We got a Passionfruit peach tea & Lemonade mint tea to drink. Then to start, we had the soup dumplings and pork wonton in chili oil. Both were absolutely delicious! Will definitely get again next time. Our main dishes were the drunken noodles and hunan flavored stir fry with pork. Both were tasty and very large. Portions are perfect for sharing. Excited to come here again! read more

Believe the hype! Corner Dumpling House is serving up some tasty food and is well worth a visit. After failing to get in once before, my daughter and I strategized to arrive shortly before they opened at 11 to make sure we got a table. It worked! Our server Lauren gave us some excellent suggestions to supplement what we already knew we wanted. The chicken soup dumplings are a must have. I've never had these before and they were outstanding. You poke a little hole in the dumpling and draw out the savory soup before eating what's left. The pan fried pork buns, scallion pancakes and Japanese shumai were all excellent and well complimented by the combination of soy sauce, vinegar and hot oil you can mix to your taste from the containers on the table. The pork wontons in chili oil were very, very good. A coconut Matcha tea completed my meal. The restaurant itself is cute and clean with combination of boots and tables. Charming drawings of happy little dumplings decorate the window coverings. Waits can be as long as 90 minutes so plan your trip well. Recommended! read more

Finally, Cincinnati has xiao long bao that mimics the many great dumpling houses of NYC. Hubs and I stopped by Corner Dumpling House for an impromptu dinner date. I was craving xiao long bao (commonly known as soup dumplings) and they did not disappoint. The accompanying malt vinegar and chili sauce was the perfect dumpling complement. I can't wait to come back to try their other menu options as everything folks ordered around us looked absolutely delicious! read more

Wow. I can't believe we have an actual decent and authentic Chinese restaurant in Cincinnati with really freshly made dumplings and Sichuan food. The flavors were great. We loved their dumplings, their vegetarian one was actually our favorite followed by the truffle pork one. Their basa fillet boiled w hot chili oil was fantastic and fresh - you just have to order extra bowls of rice (it comes with one), and their beef chow fan which we tend to be skeptical on was perfectly cooked with really soft quality beef. Service was good, they have high chairs for babies too! Look forward to keep coming back (there was an hour wait on Saturday 5pm!) read more

It's comfortable inside with pleasant decor. We got a few different dim sum items which were all fine but pretty mid and not extremely flavorful. The shrimp and pork soup dumplings were quite good though. The chicken drunken noodles were ok but they needed some spice/heat. Not bad- just needed more flavor. Service was friendly but a little slow - not the food prep part- but getting refills of water and our chili crisp jar was empty, and it took a while for us to get the bill. I would go back but just get all soup dumplings. read more

I am blown away at their mei fun. Their rice noodles are cooked to perfection, the beef is really tender, the egg and cabbage portions were adequate. I feel like there was a hint of fish sauce that big hut everything together. It tastes even better with chili oil. The portions were big enough to share. I would go here with friends to try different entrees. The customer service is very polite and the interior is well decorated. I will need to go back to try their dumplings and other entrees.

As certified mushroom freaks, we went all-in on the Assorted Mushroom Dry Pot and WOW - easily a 5-star dish that had us fighting over the last bite! Also ordered: Yang Chow Fried Rice + Pork Siumai (both delish!) The service was impeccable and the entire experience was unforgettable.

We came here craving dim sum and ordered the soup dumplings, braised pork belly, sautéed string beans, yam with black mushrooms, and the sweet & sour squirrel fish. The soup dumplings were pretty good, probably the best (and only) you'll find in Cincinnati. The pork belly had good flavor but was a little tough, and the fish was just okay. Service was quick and efficient, which made the experience smooth. Overall, it's a solid option for Chinese food in Cincinnati and worth checking out if you're in the mood for dumplings. read more

A worthy spot for tasty dumplings! My daughter and I stopped in after church for a bite. We were seated right away and got to peruse the menu. There was a great selection of pescatarian/ vegetarian choices and we ordered the vegetable steamed dumplings, shrimp shumai, and pan fried pork soup dumplings. All were excellent- I could tell they were house made. I was disappointed that pan frying leaves no soup in the soup dumplings, so I will get them steamed next time. Many times, vegetable dumplings lack of flavor, but these were well composed and complex. Excited to go back and try the rest of the menu! read more

Came here to try their soup dumplings since its made fresh daily, pretty much like ding tai feng. The restaurant was pretty, giving off an ancient Chinese restaurant kind of vibe and layout. Soup dumplings was kinda meh... the dumplings skin is on the thicker side and I personally prefer ding tai feng soup dumplings. But compared to other soup dumplings in Cincy, this would be better. Chinese dishes were surprisingly good. I would actually come back her for Chinese food but not really for dimsum. Guess I'm still on the hunt for good dimsum. read more

I had heard all the hype around Corner Dumpling House and it did not disappoint. We ordered three types of dumplings: fried spicy beef buns, pork dumplings in chili oil, and pork and shrimp soup dumplings. The buns were good, but the other two absolutely shined. For the chili oil dumplings, the silky dumpling wrapper was the perfect vehicle for the spicy oil and tasty filling. And the soup dumplings are a dish I will still be dreaming about later: perfect wrapper, tasty meat filling, and the most flavorful slurp of soup I've had in some time. Those soup dumplings are one of my favorite dishes I've eaten in Cincinnati. For entrees, we ordered the shrimp drunken noodles and diced chicken with hot pepper, and they were both delicious but the portions are large so we took enough home for another meal! We had a short wait for a table at 6pm on a Thursday night, but it looked like the wait was longer when we left. Don't let the wait deter you - this is well worth the wait! I can't wait to go back to try more dishes! read more

Five of us went for Friday lunch. It was pretty busy but still had tables. The waitress was helpful and attentive. My Kung Pao chicken was large and great. I took half home.

Starting off with the "5 star" portion of the rating: service was excellent and the restaurant itself if beautiful. We loved watching how the dumplings are made (window showcases dumpling making right when you walk in) and they did a spectacular job on the decor / vibe of the restaurant. Only reason I am giving this a 4 is that the pictures on the menu didn't look like what we ordered in a few cases and there was no spice level noted. I got the Dan Dan noodles for my kids only to find it was too spicy for them (and me!) to eat. The shumai is shown as steamed - and while it noted it was fried, we just saw the picture and immediately ordered! Totally our bad on that one but we also ordered chicken dumplings and they were orange (vs white in the picture) because they used pumpkin to give it some color. The dumplings all tasted good but it was a bit of a shock to see them looking very different than what was on the plate! One of our friends ordered an eggplant dish - which was delicious. Net - the food is good and we would go back, but please update the pictures and note spice level on the dim sum menu! read more
