Great food and great family atmosphere. Good selection and quick service. Overall great dining experience

Overall, the food was good and was fresh and tasty. Service was good as well. It was a carry out order so I did t dine in.

Excellent friendly service from the staff! The beef noodle was okay, tiny bowl, beef was tough and noodle isn't bouncy. The soup dumplings were good but need more soup. I know they are new and hopefully, they'll improve. Other than that, it was decent and we'll try again soon. read more

Both Apple and Google map say the store closes at 10pm but staffs have put the chairs up at 9pm. Wasted my commute time. Was going to feature this spot at my main account. Taking my business elsewhere now. read more

Food was extremely tasty. I would recommend the spicy wonton and popcorn chicken. Service was quick and employees were attentive to all our needs. The place was clean and pleasant to be in. read more

From my knowledge this restaurant just opened up their location last week. I ordered shrimp, truffle, and crab soup dumplings, and orange chicken with a brown sugar bubble tea for takeout. While waiting inside they played pretty good music at the perfect volume where you can enjoy a conversation with friends or jam to their music. Their restaurant is really clean and the atmosphere and vibe is on the chillax side. Ambiance: 5 stars The service here is actually pretty good. Quality of service is pretty similar to chick fila standards, maybe even better. Service: 5 stars The bubble tea was pretty bland in my opinion. I ordered the brown sugar bubble tea that was recommended, but it just wasn't the best. I'll definitely give them a chance in the future for their bubble tea because they did ask my preference in sweetness but I was indecisive and let them decide. Now let's get straight to the soup dumpling!! I wish the dumplings were labeled to know which dumpling is which. All three tasted pretty similar, but one stood out which I believe was the crab dumpling. Sadly I was not really impressed with the taste/quality of the dumplings. When picking up each dumpling I noticed the dumpling layer on the bottom wasn't intact. The dumplings were pretty dry minus the yellow ones. I definitely want to try and give this place a second time especially since It just opened up. Lastly the orange chicken and rice. To be honest I didn't take a picture of It because It was surprisingly really good and I devoured It. Dumplings: 2.5 stars Orange chicken: 5 stars. Overall I'd give this place a 3.3 star. read more

So, just left. Folks remember this IS fast food! Now, having said that, the food was plentiful,tasted good and priced right. The staff was young, but the whole time I sat there I never saw one that wasn't doing something to clean, refill or customer service. I will return, it is the perfect place to get a quick dumpling fix. read more

Guys this place is soooooo good! Them green beans about to get ordered for a Thanksgiving day side for real for real. They are so garlicky and crispy. I legit send my friends a video of me eating them so they could hear the crunch. Ill spare the publics that video but trust....worth it. As far as the dumplings i dont eat pork but the chicken soup dumplings were soooooo good. The regular chicken ones id skip to be honest. The soup ones have so much more flavor. I also got the chicken noodles and those were good too but i had to doctor with more soy sauce nad the ginger that came with the dumplings and sriracha and then they were fire. Anyway will be back. The place is clean af as some other people mentioned. read more

It was better than food than we have in New Mexico and I will always recommend it if you like dumplings and give the chef a pat on the back

Easy online ordering. Convenient location.Food was delicious and ready at promised time.

Good tasting dumplings for a reasonable price. Great for a quick family weeknight meal.

We got takeout from here recently. They have a large variety of dumplings and they're all so good. I enjoyed the teriyaki chicken the most, but household wide the duck was the fan favorite. read more

From what I had read I don't think I will go here especially the owner didn't offer any discounts to customer after they messed up the orders but only to apologize. Cheapskate place owner read more

My wife got the #1 Popcorn Chicken and Spicy Pork and Shrimp Wonton and I got #2 Pork Soup Dumpling and Spring Rolls. The #1 was ok. Popcorn chicken was dry and in-seasoned. It needed to be dipped in the soup to get any real flavor. Dumplings were good. Spring rolls were nasty and clearly frozen. There is enough ethnic food in Springfield, that my wife and I probably won't be back. read more

I really wanted to like this place but the food (we got takeout) tastes like it's industrially made. Save your money & buy the frozen dumplings at HMart. read more

This place is amazing in terms of cleanliness, taste of food, and the service. The server on duty yesterday like 2pm (two ladies and sorry i forgot their names) very much knowledgeable about what they are selling and whats in the food. We planned to order to go as we also had errands but the ambience was very catchy (not sure if this right word to use) clean, so much spacing in between tables. When food arrived we decided to dine it. My friend and I were both satisfied with the outcome of food in terms of presentation and taste. Things I really like about their tea: I can pick the level of sweetness. The fried rice does not have soy sauce which a plus for me as I have low tolerance for salt and sugar... We will look forward to come back and recommend this place to my colleagues... I am also commending those people in the kitchen, we may don't know each other but thank you for making the food so good... read more

4 friends gathered for lunch at Ugly Dumpling. We each ordered a different menu item and all agreed that their lunch was poor. There is nothing about this restaurant that would make me want to return. The staff were friendly and accommodating but the food was at best ordinary. read more

Anyone who rates this place with anything less than 5 stars has lost their mind. We've ordered 2x from here now and it's simply amazing. The chicken soup dumplings have to be our favorite. The garlic green beans are a delight - this just might be our go to from now on. :) read more

It's like Panda Express only w/ bigger menu. Super expensive and then Xiao long bao is dry.

Plenty of options to keep coming back to try. Some items I felt lack some flavor but nothing a little extra sauce/seasoning can't help. The garlic green beans, shumai and cucumber salad were my favorites. I wish they had the noodles on the menu that were on the website, but the place had only just opened when I visited. Look forward to coming back! read more

Husband and I went here for dinner. It is an interesting mix of sit-down and takeout. You can place your order at a kiosk and they bring your food out to you. We had several different dumplings, fried rice and the popcorn chicken. All were hot, tasty and reasonably priced but the soup dumplings and popcorn chicken were our favorite dishes. Decor is nice as well. This is a nice casual dining spot! read more

The food was decent. I would probably go back and try something else off the menu but not all of the dumplings were that great but maybe not an actual dumpling fan but overall I think it's a decent place. read more

Excellent food, friendly staff, clean restaurant, just an overall great establishment that I will visit again soon. read more

Ugly Dumpling Express - Pork Buns, Pork Dumplins, and wonton soup - Chinese Near Me - Springfield, Virginia

Stopped by for a quick dinner to go. The soup dumplings and steamed buns were excellent, even for takeout at home. Containers and utensils high quality. I would have loved to eat there, as the place is clean and vibrant but it was later in the evening. This was our first time and the staff - while a new establishment - knew the menu and did well in recommending their favorites. Kids are already asking to go back read more

Great food and the bao buns are really enjoyable! Employees are very friendly and helpful, they seemed quite busy when I stopped in on a Friday night around 7pm read more

Very friendly service and a clean, fun space! We tried and liked several kinds of dumplings, but I would love it if they added a veg one. Will go back and try some of the options on the rest of the menu. read more

Not sure where to start......we've been waiting for this place to own forever and when we drove by and saw it was FINALLY open we took a sharp left and parked. We were treated by the most helpful and friendly staff who pointed us towards the self serve kiosk. Honestly I'm really over the self serve thing but gave it a try since the counter was busy. There were 6 of us and we ordered a little of everything and we were very happy with all of it. The shrimp shumai were my favorite but the soup dumplings and the spring rolls were delicious also. The boba tea was a huge hit with the kids and I liked the iced green tea with mango. There were many other things we wanted to try but there's only so much room in the tummy. Service was truly top notch. Attentive and helpful and prompt. We were so impressed that we left additional tip over and above what we had added at the time we had paid. Definitely going back. Soon!!! read more

I ran out of gas and had to refuel when i saw the restaurant. I decided to give it a try for the humble name and were pleasantly surprised. They delivered great value overall. Food is tasty and reasonably priced. The server was attentive. We tried the sample soup dumplings and chili oil wonton. They were tasty and had original favors of the Chinese food. We would definitely come back. Great job of running the well organized restaurant. read more

Tried this place out for the first time today & I will definitely be coming back! I ordered the chicken dumpling express combo. It came with a drink, 6 chicken dumplings, 2 spring rolls, and a plentiful serving of fried rice. Everything tastes fresh and great! Best dumplings I've had! This is honestly a great deal for the price I paid. read more

The food was amazing. Blew our expectations. Terrill was amazing as well. He did not need to go out of his way for us, but he selflessly helped us order and take care of us at our table. It's not common to experience an employee like him these days. He definitely deserves recognition for his work ethic and customer service. read more

Great casual way to experience dumplings and BAO , with several options and flavors. The food tastes great , the tables are clean. They have kiosks and also humans to take your orders if you have questions about what items are. Food came out hot and steaming so it is clearly made to order read more
