Good food with very affordable price. We got the bundle for 4 and the portion sizes make it really valuable. My favourite one was the sesame chicken. The staff was very polite and hospitable.

Without a doubt, the best Chinese food in Lethbridge. Portions are huge. Owners very pleasant and eager to please. They will make suggestions and let you know if ordering too much food for the number at the table. AND, yes, they do have tables. They need to change their sign which says "Takeout Restaurant" to include "EAT IN" as there are 5 or 6 tables inside.

I'm not typically one to really enjoy Chinese food, it's normally just something I get and eat without throughly enjoying it. However, the last three times I've ordered from the dumpling house, I've had the BEST Chinese food ever. The ginger beef is so tender and you get soo much sauce and meat, the portion sizes are very reasonable and fairly priced. It's always super consistent. Please continue making amazing food.

We ordered the combo for 3 on skip and were really pleased with the quality and quantity of food as well as the cost effectiveness (about $20/person plus taxes/delivery, with lots of food leftover). We had wonton soup, fried rice, lemon chicken, ginger beef, and dried garlic ribs. The lemon chicken had a similar breading to the ginger beef as opposed to the battered filet pieces you get at some restaurants. The servings were generous, especially the fried rice. Nothing was too greasy, and the meat was all nice; nothing tough or stringy. We will very likely order from here again.

My husband and I ate today,and we ordered 2 combo's and its really surprising that it has a big servings and we're really happy about it 😃 I order Ginger Beef 1 full pan , with rice and Wonton soup,my husband order is 1 full pan Dry Ribs with rice and 1 pc spring rolls,and im telling you its good for 3 people not only for 2 😜 so after we see it, I ask again the staff to add one more menu,to take out everything,and its Lemon Chicken,all of the foods taste good 😋😋😋 We will come back again for sure, at home our son eats a lot and he likes it too,so this is the one of our to go Chinese food now 😊 specially if we are lazy to cook 🤪 ambience is clean,lots of parking,staff and cook are friendly,and ask too for chili garlic its really hot 🤪next time we will try some other menu 🩷

I'm lazy so that fact that I am leaving a review is amazing. This place's location is kind out of the way and I worry about the amount of business they're getting. I love their food. The ginger beef sauce is so rich and tasty. Also, the portions you get for one meal feeds me for at least 2. In the picture I took I had already eaten some :). It was packed to begin with.

Was looking for good Chinese food and found this on the west end, and the food was fast, hot, and delicious! Quick and attentive service and reasonably priced. I didn't notice the dumplings on the back of the menu, but I will be back to try them soon. Update: I tried the pork and the beef dumplings, and they were great! Next on the list to try are the seafood dumplings 🤞🏼

Thinking of a good Asian dumpling feast for a comfort food outing? This is the place! The pork and pork and shrimp dumplings are delicious. This is a family restaurant with busy takeout. All the standard local Cantonese dishes are represented but Id definitely save room for the dumplings!

August 22, 2024

Food is Bland, I asked for extra spicy.. It came bland and tasteless! I will never be ordering from them again, it happened before, but I thought it was a once off.... I called back, they said do you want us to remake it? I said yes(as it is now a day past) I called back an hour later to get them to make it for me, they refused to make it extra spicy and refused to do it for no charge, even though they are the ones that made the mistake! They offered me half price another one.. and being it that I dont have any money left because I spent it last night on them, I said I cannot do this, this was the end of conversation, and the END of my business with them! And no I will not be changing my review. Unacceptable and garbage! ROAST to you dumpling house!

Slept on my review, Thought I was a bit harsh. Price is average, there was a LOT OF RICE and not much else and no option when ordering on line to switch to a noddle instead. The ribs were small and not much to them. the food wasnt overly hot ( pick up order) ; however, it all tasted good

January 22, 2024

We heard a lot of good things about this place but were very dissapointed with what we were served. It was basically a lot of food, take out cartons full but ..no flavour and all very starchy ..very few veggies and big raw uncooked onions. Salt and pepper chicken was just that SALT ...so much so we threw it out. Very nice people to deal with but not the food we had expected by a long shot.Its too bad because the West Side is lacking good restaurants.

This is THE ONLY genuine Chinese food in Lethbridge!!!! And if you like spicy and hot Chinese cuisines then tell the boss. Her name is Dong. Let her know you want REAL Chinese and she ll surprise your mouth and stomach!!! I ll give 1000 out of 5.

★★★★★
December 22, 2023

Fantastic food. 5/5 if I was basing my decision purely on that. The chow mein was flavorful, the breading on the chicken balls was light yet crispy, and the ginger beef was crunchy even with the sauce. There was a lot of sauce, which they couldve gone lighter on in my opinion. But the highlight was the pork dumplings. Great flavour profile, good use of ginger and onion with the pork, and the wrapping was excellent. The staff was prompt and courteous, and did well at keeping my drink filled. The environment is lackluster if youre dining in, but I personally value the quality of food much higher than the dining environment. Yet it could really use some improvement.

★★★
December 22, 2023

The food was OK, not great. We had a dinner for 3, the egg rolls were empty, sesame chicken was pale and pasty. Lemon chicken chunks were OK, fried rice just barely touched the fry pan. We had enough food for two meals for 3 of us, but we also purchased some Singapore fried rice stick-which was OK.

The ginger beef was NUCLEAR, the beef with broccoli was the BOMB. The salt and pepper squid was AIGHT. Plus, as an added bonus, we asked for some fried wontons and the wontons were FRIED and GOOD. Based place, dont expect top of the line Chinese food like all these people complaintin in the comments, its a take out only Chinese joint in Lethbridge, but for what it is, it is INSANELY RADICAL.

Ordered take out for a group of 4. The food is good and had actual signs of flavour instead of just overloading sauces with sweetness. Ginger was present in several dishes. Still very westernized but that is what we wanted anyway. It was good value for the cost and they will probably be our go-to for Chinese food.

December 22, 2023

I ordered the dumplings with hoison sauce and the pork bun. I never make reviews but this was some of the worst food I have ever had in my life! Waaaay too much salt (and Im a salt lover) it tasted like frozen food, probably could buy better at the grocery store. I hate to be negative, but definitely an awful first experience.

December 22, 2023

Cant give no stars. No flavour; sesame chicken was a dull, gelatinous, tasteless mess; the wonton were gross; no taste, cheap noodles, no chicken or cabage in the chow mein; ZERO flavour to the chicken fried rice (except for the freezer burnt carrots; spring rolls were miniature & mushy in the middle; couldnt chew through the ginger beef. A WASTE of $52.

Ordered for the first time and was pleasantly surprised. We had Chinese neighbours for several years who spoiled us with their cooking and the pork dumplings took us back to those days. Great flavour balance and freshness. Only thing we would change would be to request a little more heat in the ginger beef and Singapore rice noodles. But we ll do that for sure next time. Singapore noodles were loaded with good stuff, and ginger beef flavour was awesome. Staff was friendly and welcoming and we ll definitely be back.

Very bland and greasy. I ordered the ginger beef, Szechuan chicken, chicken balls and beef dumplings. The Szechuan chicken was by far the worst item. It was so so greasy and tasted like they had dumped some Franks red hot on it. The chicken balls were large and were almost all chicken, which is good, but they tasted a lot like cornstarch. They werent terrible, but Ive had a lot better. The beef dumplings were also very greasy and had an overcooked, bland meatball inside (I ended up making my own dumpling sauce as the one that came with it was mostly oil and a bit of vinegar I think). The best item was probably the ginger beef. Although a little bland it wasnt bad. They do give you a lot of food, for your money, however the Szechuan chicken was definitely not worth the 15$ I paid for it. Wouldnt order again unless they change their recipes. Edit: Forgot to add that I did actually really like the fried rice. It was nice and seasoned and actually wasnt too greasy.

Dumpling house is the first Chinese food we have tried since moving to lethbridge, it was good. The ginger beef and lemon chicken were fresh and hot but lacked in flavor, the sweet and sour pork, fried rice and wontons in the soup were very good, although the broth of the wonton soup was bland.

We ate a few bites before throwing everything away. The sesame chicken was literally smushed up chicken balls, there was grey chicken in the chow mein, the ginger beef tasted horrible and the fried rice tasted like chemicals. Worst Chinese food experience I ve ever had in my life. Image attached is smushed your chicken ball with sesame seeds on jt disguised as sesame chicken.

I would recommend this spot fair prices with plain food, I d bet they can make it the way you like it if you ask for extra crunchy or spicy but it comes out great for children or senior s. my big complaint is with my dinner for 3 I got pork dumplings and it only came with 8 wanton sized dumplings. They were good just expected more for a place with it in the name. The wonton soup tasted great, they must use real ginger in the broth and the meat dishes come with a good amount of meat telling from the ginger beef. The chicken choa mein was good but there wasn t enough chicken in it to call it that. But still if your craving Chinese food on the west end it is the place to order. Vegetarian options: There s enough options for vegetarians to eat here. Those people don t know what they re missing tho Dietary restrictions: It comes out very plain so the elders or spice dislikers can enjoy, seems to be low in msg Kid-friendliness: Again the food isn t spicy, the ginger beef was not crunchy at all and it wasn t tough either but it was sweet with a good hint of real ginger.
