Food was authentic and high quality, plus service was prompt and seamless. Beautiful decor and atmosphere. Plenty of parking available on site, easily accessible by car. Would highly recommend.
Staff were very friendly and attentive. Asked about any allergies straight away. The food was DELICIOUS!!! Highly recommend the chilli chicken!! Loved the rose flower tea too. We ordered the braised beef noodle soup, mixed meat dumplings (fried) and the egg custard buns for dessert. The custard buns were tasty but would've been better to add a fried option with condensed milk to dip the buns in. Loved the decor although in some parts were a little run down (cable ties for a door handle in the female toilets). Would definitely come back again :D
The Dumpling Tree is a great place for dumplings. Our preference is having them fried and they were perfect! Recommend the pork & Chinese chives dumplings but the beef and lamb ones were also good. The broth in the prawn wonton soup was full of flavour with plenty of wontons and noodles. The prawn and chicken skewers were ok. Can’t wait to try more of the menu. Friendly welcoming service. Free parking in the pub’s car park, just register the licence plate at the restaurant.
had just half an hour for a meal, so I went with what looked good on Google photos: a platter and seafood noodles. The taste was decent, but the highlight was definitely the homemade rice wine—so good! Will come back to try the wontons/dumplings next time.
Delicious food, hot and tasty. Really good service. I loved the umbrellas on the ceiling. A good atmosphere. We will definitely be returning. The lamb dumplings were so tasty. Thank you.
