Dumpling House

Found at the City Centre area, Dumpling House is a Chinese restaurant that has become part of the City Centre dining scene. Its central position makes it easy to reach on foot from most inner-city accommodation.

Expect the flavours of China: at Chinese food venues like this, favourites such as sweet and sour pork and peking duck are usually on the menu. With 463 Chinese options across Auckland, this corner of the local food scene is well covered. The menu also crosses into halal territory.

You can visit any day of the week – Dumpling House opens daily. The earliest start is noon on Mondays, and the latest finish is 10 pm on Mondays. Like many traditional restaurants, it closes between lunch and dinner service on several days, so check the times before heading over mid-afternoon. In total it trades for about 56 hours each week.

Good to know: halal. For budgeting, Chinese restaurants of this kind in New Zealand typically cost around $20–$40 per person (Moderate). It is surrounded by other eateries: we count 10 more venues within about 1 km, which makes this part of City Centre easy to explore on foot.
