I found this restaurant after visiting the area, and I was glad I found it. My dining experience here far exceeded my expectations from the moment I arrived. The staff greeting was warm, and my host gave excellent recommendations for the meal. I have not had chicken satay prepared this way before, but their version was mouthwatering and delicious. The sugar pea leaf left me delightfully satisfied that there is something other than kale that is healthy and pairs perfectly with my chicken corn dumplings. I wish this place were closer to where I live because I would visit at least once a week.

This location used to be one of my favorite Chinese restaurants in the area. I was so happy to try this place, but I left disappointed. On the good side the Dan Dan noodles were excellent as were the spicy wontons. The Xiaolongbao unfortunately all stuck to the aluminum foil wrappers they were steamed in. You have to try to pick the aluminum off your bao and many times that punctures a hole in the bottom and you lose the soup.. This is annoying on two levels, first the soup is what makes the bao and secondly I don’t feel like working for the food I’m paying for to try and eat. I brought this to my waiters attention and he said they are aware of it, in fact, he just had to do the same thing when he ate some for lunch. He said the owner is aware, but has not decided to changed the little rappers. Finally I ordered pan fried dumplings that they never brought and yet still somehow managed to make an appeared on my bill.
Maybe they will iron out some of these kinks, but in the meantime, I’ll take my money elsewhere.

The food is sooooo good. I was in the mood for some high quality food and saw the reviews – this place did not disappoint. I had wonton soup- the wontons were so soft and tender, the broth was yummy and you could tell they used fresh ginger. There were fresh greens floating around in there too. So so so good! I also had onion pancakes – they were crispy and full of onion flavor. Lastly I had custard dumplings – so cute and yummy! It was such a great experience.

Was here last Sunday with my husband. The food was so yummy, I was craving a beef noodle soup and they delivered. Definitely recommend the soup as an entree or to share. The cucumber salad was also delicious and i’m still thinking about the chocolate dumplings, the best dessert. Overall this restaurant was very clean and the service was great and the food was excellent.

Solid dumpling spot. The quality is there and you can tell everything is homemade. We got the walnut prawns $19, dan dan noodles $14, szechuan noodle soup $15, shrimp and chive dumplings $14, pork buns sjb $15, Beijing pot stickers $11, pork xlb $11. It was nice of them to give us complimentary cucumber salad. The best item was probably the pork bun sjb. Rest were decent. Noodles are skippable. Was expecting the typical honey walnut prawns but it’s just prawns with mayo, lettuce, and walnuts, no batter. Healthier I guess. Lol. Their hot sauce was way too salty and not spicy. Reasonable portions and prices. Service was fine. Small restaurant, but no wait during dinner time on a Friday. Overall, not bad but I’ve definitely had better

Wow! I’m so happy Dumpling & Dough is here! It was amazing and exactly what I needed. This is LEGIT Authentic food.
My husband and I were looking for a casual dinner on Sunday, and so many places were packed because of Valentine’s Day. We came here since there was no wait, and it turned out to be such a special treat.
The food was incredible. We ordered the pot sticker dumplings, soup dumplings, and beef noodle soup — everything was delicious.
I can’t wait to come back! Thank you to the staff!!

The food is SO good! We ordered the hot & sour soup which was just $8.95 and enough for a family! The cucumber salad has the best flavor and is so fresh and crisp! We also ordered the crispy tofu and 10 pieces of beef & onion dumplings!
This is going to be my favorite go to spot in San Carlos! This is a clean cozy restaurant AND Phoenix, the best wait staff, is very attentive and helpful! I’ve been at this restaurant at least 4 times now and it is consistently good every time!! Come and give it a try, I know you’ll enjoy the fresh and tasteful food here!!!

A great hidden gem ! Came in expecting the same ol thing as every other overpriced dumpling restaurant but was completely taken by surprise as to how tasty all the food was. Tried the beef soup huge portion very tasty brot had to take some home because I got stuffed with their delicious dumplings. Friend ordered the angel wings and they were to die for. Gonna have to try their devil wings next. Prices were reasonable I felt we ordered a ton of food 4 sets of dumplings, wings, soup and desert but the bill was less than we spend at a crappy Denny’s. Will be coming back over and over.

Amazing food. And have you seen the prices? $14 for TEN huge flavorful dumplings?
We’ve accidentally found the place, and we’ll be frequent guests. The cucumber salad is great, and the fish dumplings are fantastic!
