Ugly Dumpling

This was a tough call 4 vs 5. The table service and the customer service in general is outstanding and they are always smiling and happy to help. I shared this was my first ever experience here and I got a thorough explanation of the top items in the menu. I ordered a soup dumpling sampler- what better way to find the right variety for you. They were very tasty and fun to eat. The sauce blending I had to do before eating was also a fun step. The best part of this meal, without a doubt is the cream cheese Rangoon. Oh wow. I tend to order those everywhere. I go where they are on the menu and I always find them to be tasty wherever I go, but the corners and the edges and the hard parts that sometimes are there can get in the way of enjoying it. Here, at Ugly Dumpling the cream cheese R

Clean location. Friendly staff. Lots of parking and seating. Boba tea was the best I’ve had! Food was so delicious. I highly recommend. Only downside was that they didn’t have the cream cheese rangoon and ugly dumpling sampler.

I was on the way to the Va location when we discovered that there was one a little closer to where we were. Anyway walked in loved the decor. It was really cute; clean restroom. The menu was easy to ready and accurate in its distributions. Service was mediocre but I’m giving them grace because we arrived when they opened. The food was a little slow coming out the kitchen and we had to remind the waiter of missed things a few times. The food was pretty basic but good. I’m not sure if the dumplings are made in house; I would bet they are not. It’s a great place to go for some quick eats. Overall we liked it. 6/10 recommendation.

Erica waited on us and she was amazing! Her recommendations were spot on! She was super friendly and quick. Try the fried pork chop appetizer, trust me! We also loved the sesame noodles, orange chicken w/ white rice, pork soup dumplings - pour some vinegar on the soup dumplings! Our son had the lava cookie. Everything was delicious. Will be back to try more menu items.

Nothing ugly about the flavor! Great noodles. Soup dumplings and hot chili oil. Easy to go wild here. Also easy to under order and leave hungry. Don’t forget to get boba in your tea. At 30-50 sweetness it comes across as bland and without boba or anything it isn’t anything more than dirty water. The waitress did fix this with a boba included boba tea. Bottom line is that the food is terrific, the service great, and it takes time to learn the menu.
