This is one of our favorite dishes on the menu, and a must-order every time we come to Dumpling Home. The uneven chunks of cucumber are tossed with a sh*t ton of fresh garlic, and it’s fantastic.

Fresh Cucumber With Garlic Sauce

We never leave here without ordering a side of these.

Green Onion Pancake

You have to be careful when biting into these plump, pan-fried shengjianbao: hot, flavorful soup might accidentally spray across the table. But for dumplings this juicy, we don’t mind.

Juicy Pork Bao

A translucent wrapper, tender pork filling, and light, savory broth come together to make one of the best xiao long bao in the city. The other variations on the soup dumplings, like chicken or crab and pork, are great too, but this one never disappoints.

Pork Xiao Long Bao

The steamed vegetable dumplings have vibrant green wrappers and an earthy filling of mushrooms, carrots, green onions, and other veggies - and they’re excellent. The unique inverted fold makes these beautiful to look at, and delicious to eat.

Vegetable Dumplings

If you’re like us, it’s pretty hard to say no to wings coated in a sticky, salty-sweet sauce. And the version at Dumpling Home has especially crackly skin that we love.

Dry-Fried Chicken Wings

The long, chewy fresh noodles make this. If you want something other than dumplings on your table, this is a great option.
