Food is excellent!!! Love everything in the menu. I've been here quite a few times and it's always great food.

I've been wanting to try this place and omg.. it was very good. It's a cute place and very clean. We got there and the staff was very nice and friendly. He sat us and asked if it was our first time there and briefly went over the menu. Staff was walking around every few minutes to check on the customers. We ordered the pork soup dumplings, they had a good flavor and just the right amount of juice inside. The dough was not to thick or thin. You have to try them. We also got the BBQ pork Bao, they were good, you can tell the dough was fresh. It was too much for me but the BBQ pork was very flavorful. We also got the chicken lo Mein and sesame chicken all the ingredients were so fresh. The sesame chicken was crispy on the outside with tender chicken on the inside. So Good! I can't wait to go back. read more

I ordered the Pork Bao, Shrimp Tempura and Brisket & Rice Bowl. The Pork Bao comes in sets of 3 pieces. Meaty filling and slight flavor. I needed some kind of dumpling dipping sauce. The Shrimp Tempura also a set of 3 slim shrimps, golden fried and deliciously crispy. I used their dipping sauce for everything. The big disappointment was the brisket. Tough pieces of meat, lots on tendons( inedible) 3 pieces of baby bok choy in a brown sauce. It was a large dish, but devoid of flavor. For dessert I got the Chocolate marble Ice Cream. Hot Green Tea complimented the meal read more

The food here is generally pretty good; hot and fresh. It's a little more pricey than some of the other places in the area and service can be a little slow at times. While the floors and tables kept clean, decorations need to be dusted. The air ducts need a seriously good cleaning. I wouldn't want to sit near one, who knows what would fall into my food. read more

I ordered the Flat Noodle with Beef, Scallion pancake, and pork and chive pan fried dumplings via Uber Eats. The order was ready within 15 minutes for pickup. The food was fresh and tasted great. My favorite was the scallion pancake, which came with a sweet and sour sauce instead of the soy/vinegar I'm used to. It was still very good! The pancake was crispy and not overly oily. The dumplings were a big size and had lots of filling. The flavor was fantastic, I just wish they were a *little* bit crispier on the fried side. The noodle dish was also delicious. It was simple but perfect. I love the flavor of the sauce and the beef was plentiful and perfectly cooked. I enjoyed my meal and would like to return for sit down service soon! read more

Having visited this restaurant a few times now, there are many items on their menu that I'm fond of and ones I tend to stay away from. The items I would order/recommend outweigh the ones I wouldn't order. You can't go wrong with the xiaolongbao, I personally go with the pork & crab. Do take extra caution when picking these up from the paper underneath as it tends to stick and could possibly break the dumpling skin where you'll lose your soup. I've found the shumai quite tasty as well. The Szechuan wontons are also a favourite. These are slightly smaller than your average wonton which is perfectly fine as they are tender and delicious with a slight kick from the sauce. I did order the stir-fried udon with shrimp for the first time tonight and I thought it was great. The shrimp were tender and not overcooked, the mushroom, zucchini and onions were also a nice addition to this noodle dish. A couple appetizers I highly recommend are the calamari which will include a few clumps of tentacles as well which I love, and the crab rangoon which has a flavourful filling both accompanied with a tasty, sweet chili sauce. Another would be their pork belly buns. The pork belly itself didn't contain a thick layer of fat which I prefer, and the fried onions and vegetables on the inside gave a nice crunchy texture to these buns. The first thing that jumps out on the menu right at the top are the homemade dumplings. As enticing as these looked, I've had them a couple times and I've found the skin to be too thick and doughy for my liking although the filling is fine. Another item I'm not fond of are the steamed buns (bao). Again, I find the outside to be too thick and I've found the amount of filling lacking. Almost 60% of the inside of the bao was empty. Other than those critiques, I still happily return and look forward to my next visit. read more

We tried the crab Rangoon, soup dumplings and fried dumplings. Everything was delicious!

I feel like this might be the best Asian food restaurant in Rochester....the place is super casual but the food is as good if not better than an upscale restaurant. It totally blew my expectations out of the water. I guess I was expecting it to be just dumplings, which was my reason for not trying them sooner. Upon reading The menu though, I was pleasantly surprised. I had come for the dumplings but instead ordered a variety of different traditional American Chinese dishes. The wait staff was super friendly and inviting...not pushy at all...food came beyond quick. I am more of the type that likes to get takeout, and relax at home..but OG Dumpling house has made even a homebody like myself,.want to return. 5 stars. read more

We haven't had such delicious dim sum for a while, Best hand-made XLB and dumpling in town! Place is causal and food is quick, my family and I picked the right choice since we are only here for a short visit. Picked the fry house dumpling, pork XLB, beef brisket (not actually beef brisket, it's beef shank) noodle, and pork bun. XLB and dumpling are amazing, and made us ordered more (shrimp XLB and one more House dumpling). Kids love the noodles, but the bun was bit of soft and mushy inside. I also had the Sichuan wonton, which may have too much vinegar in the sauce. Again Pork XLB is the best, if you really like dumpling, try the fry version, and won't be disappointed. read more

3.5 stars. I was really craving soup dumplings so stumbled upon this place on Yelp. We tried the szechuan wontons, crab and pork soup dumplings and a spicy lanzhou beef noodle soup. the wontons were decent but the sauce was really tasty. The crab and pork soup dumplings were done well but did not wow me unfortunately. the lanzhou beef noodle soup was also a bit of a disappointment. There was barely any spice (and the spice that was added was pure chili oil), the flavor of the broth was too light in my opinion and the beef slices were extremely lean so it was tough. At $14 I expected more out of this dish (about 1.5x price that it's usually sold at). Other than that, the restaurant is clean and nice and I can see how a lot of people would enjoy it. I may check out other places in the area before I come revisit this though. read more

I love dumplings. They are literally one of my favorite foods, and would probably be on my last meal list. I'm a little picky about my dumplings, as u prefer to the thin skinned, pan fried over the thick skinned or steams style, but I'll try dumplings any place that has them. During a recent trip to Rochester, the wife and I were looking for a place to eat since we're not out that way much. We actually intended to go elsewhere and just happened to notice OG Dumpling House as we drove by and made a split second decision to go there instea. It's clearly a former fast food restaurant, but they gave it a very nice, modern remodel inside. You can basically sit yourself, but then are waited on by the employees at the front counter. We were given our menus and chose an order of fried veggie spring rolls, and order of pork and chive fried dumplings, crab rangoon, and an order of 2 chicken bao Thai style. Our good was brought pretty quickly and we we down to business. Spring rolls were great. Large, fresh made, delicious. My wife absolutely loved the crab rangoon, said they were some of the best she's ever had. We really liked the steamed baos and the dumplings were PHENOMENAL. So delicious, I could've made a meal just out of them. Prices were fair and comparable to similar restaurants and the service was very friendly. We'd absolutely go again if we were in the area. read more

We've been here at least 8 times before. We love this place. The food always fills is with so much joy. Before I went to write this review, I read a few and I saw that some people thought some of food was bland. I'd like to ask if they have only had Americanized Chinese food, which is often jacked up on salt/sugar for the Western palette raised on fast food. Also, one reviewer said she had to use soy sauce and vinegar to "jazz up the dumplings." That is akin to saying that you need to jazz up a salad with some dressing. Ma'am, you are SUPPOSED to use the dipping sauce provided. Ok, back to our food... one of the favorite things I like to order is the fried green beans, they are like (potato) fries but with a green twist. The Xiao long bao is always a favorite of my husband. Today, we decided to try the OG Peanut Noodle w/ tofu and we both thoroughly enjoyed it. The slight spice was a surprise. I love that they offer several vegetarian options, which can be tricky with "more authentic" Chinese restaurants. We met the owner lady once. We've also always had good service. The only bad thing about this place is that we live too far. read more

This came on the radar thanks to a food blogger and my friends' love of dumplings. After scoping out the menu another friend suggested we try the soup dumplings, so we did. This place is pretty unassuming, driving up weren't sure what we were looking for and walking up we joked it was a former Mighty Taco. There is a specials board near the counter, upon walking in we were offered to dine-in and be seated or order for take out. All of us being fully vaccinated decided to dine-in. Paper menus are available however you can also scan a QR code and view the menu on your phone. I wanted to sample enough where a few bites of everything was filling and I had enough to take home for later. My meal consisted of Pork Belly Buns, Scallion Pancake and Xiao Long Bao. We weren't waiting very long as our food quickly started streaming out of the kitchen. The Pork Belly Buns were bigger than they expected, at other places you'd get charged much more for the pieces of pork belly we got or served a much smaller piece. The steam bun was soft, the pork belly cooked well, it wasn't too chewy and the sauce on the little sandwich was delicious. The Scallion Pancake had a crispy skin, but was still soft on the inside, I found the pancake enjoyable alone however with with the chili oil or the sweet chili sauce that came with the order. My final item was the Xiao Long Bao or the Soup Dumpling. Served in the steamer basket with some sort of a red vinegar sauce, it is served with a traditional soup spoon that is needed because when you might in a tasty broth will be free. These steamed dumplings are pork based, the filling isn't overly seasoned however the broth is what did the trick for me. This was a truly great experience and the whole table is willing to come back and if this was in our neighborhood we'd probably be ordering frequently. read more

So disappointed! I really want to like this place as I love dumplings and Chinese food in general but this is the second time with poor results. Ordered online thru Yelp which was super convenient, came in picked up and could go. First issue - had to ask for chop sticks. I mean cmon, it's a dumpling house. Ordered steamed dumplings but honestly they tasted microwaved. Also the little dipping sauce container in with the dumplings leaked so there was nothing to dip in when I opened it. Then I also got a hot n sour soup which was just kind of bland and generic tasting almost with a more sweet and sour vibe. read more

Food was okay. We called in our order and were able to easily pick it up through their drive through window. We tried the soup dumplings -- I'm not sure if they make them there but ours had barely any soup in them. We also tried the House Dumplings, which I enjoyed, and was my favorite of what we ordered. The OG Peanut noodles were meh. We actually ended up adding a bunch of stuff to add some flavor to the noodles at home because it was pretty bland and the noodles were mushy. Kind of pricey for the quality of food. read more

Worth an hour long drive from Buffalo? YES. But apparently as of May 2024 they will be opening a location in the Buffalo area on Niagara Falls Blvd. ALL of the food we had at this Rochester location was excellent as was our informative and pleasant server. Hoping their new Buffalo location is as good. My guess is that this much anticipated expansion will be overwhelmingly successful and fill a gap for dim sum in WNY. read more

I posted a review before and nothing has changed! I drive out of my way to get their food! Sometimes I even pay the extra to get it delivered. Why? Because I crave it, I've got to have it. If you haven't tried this place you really must. Order on their website for fast, easy pick-up or order through Door Dash. Crab Rangoons, steamed vegetable dumplings, scallion pancakes, steamed bao, Dan Dan noodles, general tsao's chicken, sesame balls, beef lo mein...you can't go wrong! It's all delicious! read more

Food: xiao long bao, vegetable dumpling (steamed), and vegetable bao. The skin was very fresh, but the vegetables inside were a bit bland. We added soy sauce and vinegar to jazz it up. I think if you served it with the spicy wontons sauce, it would be better. Parking: private lot. read more

Mixed feels about the food here. I was so excited to visit because they have soup dumplings!! Definitely recommend eating in vs take out especially for soup dumplings. They lose a bit of their magic when they're served in styrofoam ...Its just not the same. They felt like a fast food version of a soup dumpling. Idk if that's because my experience was tainted by the to go container and eating on the go or if the quality was really not there. They were remiscent of what I miss from living in China but I'm not sure they lived up to expectations. The Szechuan wontons were satisfactory. Their Szechuan seasonings were pretty on point, looked like they had the numbing peppercorns in there which not all places do. I would definitely visit again and try some other items but for my first visit this restaurant fell short of my expectations. read more

First Chinese restaurant in the Rochester area I would want to eat at again! At risk of sounding like a snob (I guess I am one now), I usually avoid Asian restaurants when visiting family in Rochester, because they tend to not be very good. However, this one is quite legit. I've lived in China long-term and now live in a majority Asian American city in California. I would say the food here is on par with any successful Chinese restaurant in the Bay Area. Definitely hope to return soon. read more

Love OG Dumpling House! It is inside the old Mighty Taco location, and it is a vast upgrade from the taco place. I have been here twice and have never been disappointed. I love their pork belly buns and beef bao. Both and delicious. I tried my mom's beef brisket rice as well, and that was fantastic, and I hope to order it myself on our next dinner there. All of the staff here is so friendly, and even when it is busy, they keep the restaurant moving really well. A 10/10 dumpling restaurant. read more

This was a nice clean establishment. The workers weren't really friendly, but provided good service. The food was very good had the pork buns which didn't have any pickled items on them, but it wasn't needed as the pork was very tasty. Never had soup dumpling before and they were very tasty. Interesting to bite into the dumpling and have the soup fill your mouth. Very good. A nice little place, id say a little expensive, but isn't everything these days. read more

Solid food, has a few good authentic Chinese options such as beef noodle soup and soup dumplings. But doesn't have as much variety for authentic Chinese, and there was nothing too special about the dumplings. Most of them were good but nothing to be excited about. Definitely a good Chinese spot for Rochester. Service is good, and the place was clean. read more

I've driven by this place so many times and never noticed it. But now...never again will I forget OG! The servers were really nice and fast!

So flavorful and cooked fresh. Pork and Chive Dumplings were delicious! I will get those ever time! Pan fried of course. Scallion pancakes were amazing!!!! Never even heard of something like that but You must try! read more

OG dumpling house is one of the best Asian restaurants I have been to! Their dumplings are hand made, whether getting a fried dumpling or a soup dumpling, you will be impressed with the quality of dough and flavor these dumplings bring. The service is always great, they always make my wife and I feel very welcomed! If you dine in on a Friday night or weekend, expect for the place to be packed with customers, even so they serve the food on time and we are always seated fast. The inside is not super fancy, and I like that. The interior is made to give a place for their great dumplings, no fancy tables or chairs, just great food! I am a regular here and will be until this place closes. I can order 2 meals with 2-3 appetizers and drinks for under 60 bucks, you can't beat that in today's world! read more

Enjoyed the pork bao dumplings and house dumplings. Both superb. And as anyone who loves dumplings, the sauce will make or break them. Theirs was excellent. I can't wait to go back and try their udon noodle dishes and the rest of their menu. I think this is a local family restaurant that deserves 5 stars read more

Delicious. Service was great, food was excellent. Highly recommend the fried rice and pork dumplings.

Once upon a Sunday evening, my mom and I were driving around the Rochester area looking for a place to eat. We stumbled upon the Dumpling House and said "eh... why not." Little did we know we were in for a big treat. Was it the amazing prices? The wonderful service? The delicious food? It was all 3. The restaurant wasn't crowded so we got immediate seating and ample time to peruse the menu. We took the egg rolls, the pork dumplings, the chicken fried rice, and the beef bao zi. The egg rolls, 2 per serving, were golden brown and tasty. The pork dumplings were our absolute favorite - I have never tasted such perfection in dumpling form before. I loved the chicken fried rice with its fresh mixed veggies. The bao zi was my only issue. The outside was wonderful in texture and taste, a delightfully squishy bread bundle. The beef had an odd cinnamon sauce on it which I wasn't a fan of. I think had we done a pork or chicken bao zi, we would have been fine. We got a soda and 2 waters, and our total wasn't even 25 dollars. I loved dumpling house and would suggest it to anyone anytime. Anyone there would live happily ever after. read more

I was pretty excited to hear that Rochester had a dumpling restaurant. You would have never known a Mighty Taco used to be here. There was someone at the front making dumplings which was nice to see. My family and I arrived on Sunday around 1pm. We were handed paper menus with lots of items crossed off. Okay, you just opened and there will be changes to the menu. We ordered a number of items: Seaweed: Lots of ginger and very chewy. I wasn't a fan of this. Dan Dan Noodle: It looked good but it was flavorless, usually dan dan noodles are really spicy. Xiao Long Bao: There was no soup inside and we didn't get the soy sauce or ginger to make the dipping sauce. No soup spoons available either. The dumplings lacked flavor. Sichuan Wonton: It was basically eating an oily dumpling and not tasting anything. The wontons were drenched in "hot oil" with red pepper flakes. House Dumpling: The only dumpling item worth ordering. It was pan fried and actually had flavor! Scallion Pancake: Fluffy pancake but I wish the dipping sauce wasn't sweet and sour. Crab Rangoon: Typical crab rangoon with cream cheese and crab filling. Chicken Kabob: This was good, grilled chicken on a skewer. Shaking Beef Rice Plate: Rice and tender beef with cucumber and lettuce. This was actually good. I was less than impressed with most of the dishes, they either lacked flavor or were drenched in oil. read more

When it comes to dumplings, my bar is set extremely high. I knew better than to expect too much from Dumpling House. In my mind, there is no way a dumpling spot in Rochester can compete with the places I've been fortunate enough to experience in Toronto, Asia and even at home. So Dumpling House actually met my expectations. First of all, I don't think Dumpling House is deserving of the many 1-2 star reviews on Yelp. I attribute those low reviews to being a new restaurant that is working out kinks in production and service. I found the service to be fairly attentive and my food came out in a reasonable time. However l, I did dine at an off-peak hour (5:30 pm). The set-up is a bit strange though. When you first walk in, it still feels like a fast food taco spot. Your first instinct is to walk to the counter to order. But if you're dining in, you should sit down first and order from a waiter. So maybe a "please seat yourself" or "wait for a server" sign is necessary. They also do not have any pictures on their menu nor do they have any signage over their counter. So knowing what to order can be confusing to customers, especially those not accustomed to ordering Chinese food. I found the food itself to be quite edible, albeit on the more bland side. I ordered the Cumin Lamb Kabob ($7) and the pan fried House Dumplings ($8). The kabobs were cooked well and juicy. I thought they could use more cumin. Portions were okay (3 skewers). The dumplings well nicely fried, but under-seasoned. There were supposed to be 3 different types of filling (pork, shrimp and egg & chive) but they all tasted the same to me. I really couldn't make out the individual stuffing ingredients. I also found their dumplings to be on the small side and honestly at $1 per dumpling I'm not sure if it's worthwhile. Pricing-wise, if they took a dollar off each item (ie. $6 for the skewers, $7 for the dumplings), I would feel better about it. I ended up paying $19 including tax and tip for 8 small dumplings and 3 small-ish skewers in a fast food joint environment. Overall, not THAT disappointing, but definitely not very impressive. I may be back to try their noodle dishes, but I definitely won't return just for their dumplings. I do wish them all the best though. read more
