THE DUMPLING TREE REVIEWS

Took my husband here for a birthday meal and he’s difficult to please. Safe to say it was a hit! He’s been looking for his favourites served at high quality in a restaurant with great atmosphere and The Dumpling Tree did not disappoint. We enjoyed everything we ordered and the staff were the perfect level of attentive. We even had to request some take away containers as we couldn’t bare to leave any. Can’t come back soon enough!

We initially posted in a local Facebook group (Cambridge Foodies) looking for ideas of where we could go out for a dinner date on a budget, and The Dumpling Tree reached out and invited us to come and have dinner there, so we made a reservation.

Nestled in Cambridge, The Dumpling Tree beckons with its tantalizing array of Chinese cuisine. From the moment you step in, the aroma of sizzling dishes entices your senses. The dumplings, their specialty, are a true delight – plump parcels of flavor, from traditional pork to inventive vegetarian fillings. Beyond dumplings, their menu boasts an impressive selection of Chinese classics, each dish bursting with authenticity and freshness. The cozy atmosphere and attentive service make dining here an absolute pleasure. For an unforgettable taste of Chinese cuisine in Cambridge, look no further than The Dumpling Tree.

YIM WAH EXPRESS REVIEWS

Amazing food! Garlic stir fry veggies, roasted pork belly and the shredded chicken with jellyfish are so good! Totally satisfied in having these authentic Cantonese dishes that I miss so much The waiters were very polite and efficient. We had a 4-person table even though we are only 2. Overall a very great dining experience!

Really enjoyed this restaurant even though the place was a little worn, but you don't eat the place you eat the food. The service was excellent, as was the food too. The only disappointment was the price!!, as I settled the bill by cash and not told of the service charge and giving another 10% tip too which I think is a little naughty, I would go back again as the food was good, I think in future its card not cash and no tip just the service charge!.

As visiting Americans, we were blown away by this restaurant—so much so that we’re envious it’s not in the States! It easily topped our list of dining experiences, even amidst the exceptional food we've had in Cambridge and London.

ZHONGHUA TRADITIONAL SNACKS REVIEWS

This place is great and the food is the closest I have found to true Chinese food in the UK. Very simple but lovely Dumplings and Soup that you can't beat.

Cozy and friendly atmosphere with delicious food! I love the pork and chinese leaves dumplings (both fried and steamed) which I shared with my friend. Very affordable too for good quality food!.

I have eaten here many times now. Always really good food and service. Prices are great too and portions are well sized. Does not disappoint.
