Dough Square Dumpling House - (Near East Lansing, MI)

5 /5 Boop: We got the braised beef and cucumber salad for the appetizers then the beef and cilantro and pork and chives for the dumplings. Everything there was above and beyond expectations! The cucumber salad was crunchy, savory, and perfectly refreshing. The braised beef was tender with just the right amount of seasoning/not too salty. Now to the dumplings. We got them both pan fried (personally, I think thats the best way to go). Both types of dumplings were juicy and the wrappers had the right amount of thickness to make it slighty chewy and to hold any added sauces. Which the sauces deserve praise on their own as well. Their signature dumpling sauce was the classic tangy vinegar soy sauce mix pairs perfectly with their chili oil. Their service is fantastic. Everyone there is so kind and attentive (though Im sure it helped that we went after all the students were gone for the holidays). We for sure will be coming back again and again to try everything they have to offer!

5 /5 Leilani Wolfe: Delicious dumplings! We got beef & scallion pan-fried, and chicken & mushroom steamed. Both were very tasty and flavorful, and the pan-fried had a nice crisp and were so juicy! We also got the cucumber salad (tangy and spicy and crispy and slightly sweet - all of the flavors) and the tomato & egg soup (warm and savory and comforting, which was perfect for a Michigan winter evening). They also brought us a complimentary plate of the potato stir fry side, which had a nice szechuan spice and fresh cilantro. Cant wait to come back and try some more! P.S. Kung Fu Tea is in the same space, and a bubble tea goes perfectly with the delicious dumplings

5 /5 Taryn: We saw this place was posted in the Lansing Foodies group and were surprised because we had no idea this was here. Great handmade dumplings and egg drop. Our favorite was the fried veggie dumplings.

5 /5 Caitlin W.: Delicious dumplings! We got pan-fried, and Im looking forward to going back and trying the steamed, as well as some of the different fillings. We got the classic pork and cabbage, and tried the pork with pickled cabbage, too. Both were tasty. Theyre larger than soup dumplings Ive had in the past, and very filling! We couldnt finish them all. We also tried the wood ear mushroom salad, and that was delicious, as well! It was well-seasoned with cilantro, garlic, and vinegar. If you havent had them before, the mushrooms are thin and a little springy. Because it shares the space with Kung Fu Tea, you can get a bubble tea to go with your food. Theyre very new, so there was a bit of a wait. Its fine, we werent in a rush. I think theyre still getting the workflow down. Everyone was so nice, and the food was great. Ill definitely be back! Edit: We went back, and if anything it was even better than before! Im adding more pictures. The egg drop soup with tomatoes is especially wonderful, and the cucumber salad is addictive! I think I would recommend getting the dumplings pan-fried. They seemed to hold onto more of the juice inside, and I personally love the crunch.

5 /5 Keeping It Real: Went for a fun spur of the moment date night. Food was outstanding!! I got the beef scallion pan fried, and my husband got the pork chive steamed so we could each try two types. Normally I am not the biggest steamed dumplings/potsticker fan, but genuinely this was some of the best I have ever had. We already plan to come back!
