I recently visited Dragon House for their famous soup dumplings, and overall it was a great experience. The dumplings themselves absolutely lived up to the hype--perfectly delicate with a flavorful broth inside. We also ordered the dim sum combination, additional dim sum, and lo mein, and everything came out fresh, hot, and packed with flavor. The variety in the dim sum was impressive, and the lo mein had a great texture and seasoning that tied the meal together nicely. You can tell there's real skill in the kitchen when it comes to the food. My only complaint was noticing the staff making the fresh dumplings eating personal food while working. It took away a bit from the overall experience and professionalism you'd expect, especially in an open kitchen setting. That said, the food quality is definitely worth it, and I'd still recommend stopping by if you're craving authentic soup dumplings in the area. Solid 4 stars! read more

We went here for lunch after spending July 4th at the Gaylord Texan Resort. The reviews were good, the restaurant is close to the resort, and we were in the mood for Chinese. The restaurant itself is attractive both inside and outside. Upon entering we were quite hopeful that the food would match the decor. I started with egg drop soup and it was good but not as flavorful as others I have had. That would become a theme for our meal. The kid had steamed juicy dumplings and liked them, but she said that they were not as good as dumplings at Jeng Chi in Richardson. I tried a couple and agreed that they are not as good. They were fine, just not as good as others. The wife had beef noodle soup with broccoli and on the positive side the beef (brisket) was incredibly tender. However, the noodles were way over cooked and the broth lacked something. It did not have a deep, developed flavor. I had garlic chicken and on the positive side, the chicken was tender and the many types of veggies were cooked well. However, the dish was bland. It really had very little flavor, and I said to the wife that if I did not know it was garlic chicken, I would never have guessed. It was just bland. The service was friendly but our server disappeared for long periods of tine. The dumplings and soups came out fast, but my dish took forever. I actually thought that our server went on break or went home for the day. it was a really long wait. We probably would not return to this restaurant again. read more

I was looking forward to Dragon House, but it was average at best. We ordered the fried tofu appetizer and the hand-pulled noodles with veggies. The tofu actually came out after the noodles, and the sweet chili sauce it was served with was rather thick. I think a different sauce, or having the tofu coated in the sauce, would have been much better. The noodles had good flavor overall, but there were barely any vegetables, and the noodles seemed a little chewy. I would have preferred lo mein noodles instead. The price was also pretty steep for the noodle dish. I've had better tofu and noodles elsewhere. I had to ask for chili oil, and our server only checked on us once. It was an early Thursday evening and the restaurant wasn't busy. I think this place is probably more popular for its soup dumplings and dim sum. Oh, and there were also flies around our table, which was very off-putting. read more

Everything was so good! The sampler dumplings were good. I didn't like the veggie ones. Beef and chicken were the best. They tasted fresh and were hot! Pork buns were great. I loved toasted sesame bottom. They have a bit of juice in them and it's hot. Be careful! The noodles were a bit doughy for me but my friend loved them. I added soy sauce and salt. Service was great and super fast. The bathrooms smelled like sulfur -just bad in the back. Had that smell been in the restaurant, we would have left. Enjoyed our meal and will be back. read more

We were in the grapevine area and craving Asian food. I'll preface this by saying I always go to Richardson/plano/Frisco but this was an opportunity to explore a new area and measure it against the same bar. Firstly, there were mostly caucasians in the restaurant (nothing wrong with that, just that it's an indicator of the clientele and potentially authenticity). The service was awesome and one of the main chefs was having a lot of fun with his hats where the ears pop up when you squeeze the long ends which the kids seemed to love. The food- I really wanted Peking duck and this was not up to par. The duck was a bit dry and the skin was more like roasted duck, not the crispy skin with the fat trimmed off that you eat with the pancake. The scallion pancake was delicious and the noodles were a generous portion. The soup dumplings were good but only 6 for the price point was a bit disappointing. Definitely more of a PF Chang style menu for the local crowd which is smart. I enjoyed the meal but will likely return to some of my more usual haunts. read more

After a couple years I decided to this place again, twice this month. The lunch hour is INSANE. Waiters and waitresses tossing plates onto the table after a rush info of what the plate is. (This caused some confusion). They were so busy they forgot my crab ragoon, sob. We tried again after the big freeze for lunch. Nearly empty. Perfect. Much slower, caring service. The lunch special for 15 is plenty of food! You get your choice of rice or noodles and a choice of protein. It comes with a soup, egg roll, and edamame. I highly recommend steaming for all your dumpling choices. And be careful they are served H O T. They do cool quickly on the outside but the meat will get ya! Over all, a special treat once in a while. Try to not come during lunch haha read more

I came to try the dim sum at Dragon House. I got the hot and sour soup and the cream cheese raccoon appetizer. The hot and sour soup was amazing. Perfect bite perfect flavor. Lots of tofu and mushrooms and bamboo shoots. The cream cheese raccoon was OK. I also got the dumpling sampler. With two seafood dumplings, two chicken, two pork and two vegetable those were magnificent. Beautifully done and very tasty. For dessert I was gonna try the red velvet crêpe, but apparently they don't have that anymore, but they did have the ube crêpe, so tasty... Not super sweet just creamy and delicious perfect ending. I talked to the amazing wait staff and she left me a picture of tea. And that was perfect... I went there later in the afternoon so it was pretty empty but that allowed me to really appreciate how beautiful the dining room is. I specifically love the lotus flowers, climbing the glass booth of the door. The place is charming. read more

Dragon House - Ube Crepe Cake / 紫薯千层蛋糕 - Chinese Near Me - Southlake, Texas

Dragon House was a total hit from start to finish. Great service right off the bat. Friendly, attentive, and made the whole experience feel easy and welcoming. The real star for me was the stir-fried hand-pulled noodles. The texture was chef's kiss!Perfectly chewy, not soggy, and packed with flavor. The kind of noodles you keep thinking about after the meal is over! We also ordered the truffle xiao long bao, chili wontons, Wagyu dumplings, and cucumbers, and honestly, there wasn't a weak dish in the lineup. The xiao long bao were rich and indulgent without being overpowering, the chili wontons had just the right kick, and the Wagyu dumplings were juicy and full of flavor. Even the cucumbers were refreshing and perfectly balanced. Everything was phenomenal, and Dragon House has officially earned a spot on our must-return list. Come hungry and order generously.. I promise you won't regret it! read more

So good. Best soup dumplings I've ever had. First you may approach and see and think it may be too fancy. It is not. Feels like you are in a home kitchen dining room beside served by mom or grandma. Great service. Everyone was nice and sweet. The food the food. The most amazing food. I got the Steamed Juicy Dumplings and the Szechuan Dandan Noodles. Best soup dumplings ever. Great broth and meat was awesome. The noodles had an amazing umami flavor. Fresh noodles are a great difference to soup. Had samplings of honeycomb dumplings, rangoons and Mongolian beef from around the table. Nothing disappointed at all. Will be back! read more

This was my first visit to Dragon House, and the food did not disappoint. I will admit, my heart was set on Nikko, but the vote was for Dragon House, and that is where lunch was to be had. When I first walked in, I was taken by the number of people. I felt like I walked into a cafeteria, one that was bustling at the seams. It was loud, and I felt the tables were a bit too close. We were quickly seated and greeted by our waitress, and our waitress was prompt with getting us started with our order. Their menu is abundant, and you don't know where to begin. I say that with excitement, there's so much, and it all looked so good as it was being served to the folks at the other tables. Alright, I heard a lot about their juicy dumplings, and that is what I went with, and what a great choice I made. Cucumber salad: This was okay, it isn't like what is offered in some other places, but it was a nice snack after packing it to go. I will not get it again. Shrimp & Pork Juicy Dumplings: These were so good, the broth and seasoning were perfection. The pork and shrimp, you could actually taste, and they had small bites of shrimp. Delicious! I will say, what took away from this dish, the dumpling was a bit chewy at the tip. Black Truffle Juicy Dumplings: These were okay, but I will not get them again. They did not compare to the Shrimp & Pork. Overall, I look forward to visiting again. There are several things on their menu, I'd love to try. I'm happy, I visited! read more

This has always been our go-to spot for great Chinese food, consistent, flavorful, and always welcoming. It's also not far from our home. However, during our most recent visit, my orange chicken missed the mark. It tasted a bit burned and overly crispy, with very little chicken inside. After just a couple of bites, I decided to skip the rest. That said, this place has been a longtime favorite, and one off meal won't stop me from going back. I'll just be ordering something different next time! One of the best (and most fun) parts of dining here is watching the hand-pulled noodles being made. There's a friendly gentleman behind the glass who tosses the dough through the air, sometimes even across the restaurant, and never misses! It's always a highlight. The staff is attentive and friendly, and the atmosphere is casual, lively, and full of great energy. Despite the hiccup, it's still one of my favorite neighborhood spots. If you go during dinner or lunch rush, be prepared to wait, as this is a very popular Southlake restaurant! read more

We tried Dragon House for the first time tonight and we will most definitely be back! We had the pork buns to start off which were perfectly crispy on the bottom. I had the stir-fried noodles with beef which is easily one of the best Asian dishes I've ever had! It's very obvious that everything is fresh and that they hand make the noodles. Despite the restaurant being insanely busy, our server was very friendly and the food came out quick. I could not recommend this place more! read more

Dragon House - Chinese Near Me - Southlake, Texas

Was told the wait was gonna be 45 mins. We opted to order take out and it was going to be 25 mins (still excessive in my opinion but apparently this is a good restaurant). Multiple tables were sat that came after us which defeated the purpose of not waiting and getting takeout instead. 40 mins or so passed and the food is still not ready. We asked the hostess what is going on and she said they were packing the food which clearly she lied about bc this was 15 mins later and it doesnt take 15 mins to pack food. I confronted her and she was speechless because I asked her to not lie to customers and Id rather honesty. Food was finally done and we got home and food was missing! So after all of that, they staff didnt bother to make sure everything we ordered was in the bag, we were about a 25 min drive from the store. A $150 takeout order. We called the store to ask for refund and no answer. Horrible customer service even though the food we did receive did taste good. Horrible waiting experience. read more

I went to Dallas to visit family and was craving dim sum. I'm from Houston so the dim sum scene there is so good and I wanted to find a good place in Dallas that can compare. I'm happy to say that this place was very very good! The dim sum was very fresh and felt healthy & not greasy. The location was clean and quaint. The service was impeccable!!! I would come back here even just for the service alone. We came right at opening so we got sat right away (party of 8). Other than the server being super attentive (I believe her name was Jean), we had a 3 year old who fell from the chair (not the restaurant's fault, it was pure accident), but all of the staff were extremely helpful once the accident happened. We asked for a bag of ice and explained what happened and Jean came and grabbed ice right away for us, the hostess came and comforted our baby and checked up on us, the chef even came by and cut up oranges for the baby, they also gave him toys and a bunch of fortune cookies to distract him from crying. The staff came to check on us and him multiple times to make sure everything was okay and they really didn't have to. It was not their fault at all but they were so patient and attentive. Great experience, great food, and I highly recommend it if you are ever in this area. read more

Let me start with saying if you go here, there is almost definitely a substantial wait. That being said, they work that list down efficiently and it's worth the wait. Everything here was incredible and the staff were amazing! They were so friendly and I was tempted to order the entire menu. The dumplings and hand pulled noodles were incredible. The Peking duck being cut by the chef table side provided a nice little show and it was delicious. Would definitely come back here read more

I went for it and got the duck! Not sure why it took almost an hr for this dish to make it from the kitchen to the table. I was the last one to eat at the table which becomes a bit awkward. However, it did not disappoint an d was with the wait. It was juicy on the inside and crispy on the outside. I would call it the brown chicken of its generation. Served with these little tortillas to make mini tacos. I didn't care for the duck sauce it was paired with. It was a bit overpowering and stole attention away from the flavor. I did pair it with some taco sauce I kept in my bag, the cucumbers and BAM! It was everything. Try the Duck, at least once. I will say, as I waited for my duck... the server gave me a free egg roll and crab wonton. It wasn't much, but it was a kind gesture that I appreciated. read more

Great food! Everything is delicious! Been here twice and both experiences were phenomenal. Great selection of authentic Chinese dishes.

Service from Mattie was superb(friendly, patient, smiley) and despite them being super busy tonight, the dishes we ordered came out better than expected from previous experiences. Kung Pao Shrimp (made by request) 5/5, Mongolian Beef 5/5, Chinese broccoli 5/5, DanDan noodles&shrimp, 3/5 (was somewhat bland, but the fire fried taste helped the taste and the shrimp were cut in halves so not enough shrimp). Salt & Pepper shrimp 5/5, Soupy Dumplings 5/5 The family will definitely go again more often if the dishes continue to come out fresh and delicious like tonight. Keep up the great service and hopefully the ratings will get up to 5 stars on Yelp! read more

It was a busy Friday evening at Dragon House Southlake, creating a lively and festive atmosphere.

I ordered $185 worth of take out. Got home and received a call that they forgot one of our orders and could come back to pick it up!! No. Instead of saying we are sorry, we will take it off .. and not expected .. we'll give you a free egg roll next time. I called but the mgr wasn't available. I drive up there the next day to resolve it. The staff wasn't sure how to handle it. They offered to make me another order the next day. Then the front desk guy said "the manager is busy right now and he might be free in 15 or 20 min" ... I had already been there 20 min ... I walked out and will not be back. Nor will the 5 guest I had at my house. read more

Came here a while back, the restaurant itself is nice and seems higher end. When we got seated our waitress who was some older asian lady, seemed kind of moody and only asked one of us what we wanted to drink. That aside, the food was pretty good.

We've loved Dragon House since it came to Southlake. However we went tonight and could really tell that the ownership had changed. Now being run by a restaurant group and it shows. It's not as good as it used to be. Dumpling dipping sauce is so basic now..no ginger or scallion in it. Not the flavor we were used to. Sauces served with plastic spoons & plastic cups now. Dough not be made fresh in the front. All the details that made it above average are gone. Sad!! read more

Large restraints by! Friendly staff. The chefs prepare the noodles so it's fun to watch. Our server gave my child 2 pieces of dough to play with.

The service is really great so I recommend this spot just for that but be warned it's a bit expensive. read more

I wanted to love this place so much... I saw so many great reviews and videos. Unfortunately it was not for me. The hot oil wontons, came in like a broth with no chili or oil? The Dan Dan noodles didn't really have much flavor and the sauce was just really a broth. The soup dumpling are good. Nothing crazy. The prices we paid seemed steep to be handed plastic cutlery. I think this place has potential, I may have to give it another try. But I was sadly disappointed read more

Great place for lunch or dinner for two or a crowd. The acoustics are amazing. There were many large groups when we went, and a bunch of smaller families and couples, but I could hear my dining partner perfectly, even though there were a couple (or few?) small children with squeaky ball toys that they were incessantly squeezing. It didn't interfere in our conversation at all! The food was superb. All of our dumplings were perfectly cooked and balanced with the sauce. I very much appreciated May's dining advisements for the dumplings, and her attentive service throughout. The orange chicken was spot-on, though not as spicy as my partner was hoping for. My spicy beef noodles were perfect! Great flavor in the broth and in the beef. The noodles were full stop delicious. Yum. The main reason I went here, though, was for the sesame balls! And they were worth it!! Freshly fried, with the soft, glutinous rice interior, and that lovely, sweet middle of red bean paste. Delectable! The mochi ice cream was similarly excellent. I really appreciated the way they serve just the mochi ice cream, the way it ought to be, brought to the perfect temperature to let the glutinous rice softly shine and complement the sweet ice cream interior. All in all, a wonderful way to spend a meal. The interior is beautiful, so a great date night option. But casual diners shouldn't avoid this place! Many thanks for the hospitable service and impeccably prepared food. read more
