what a bugger this place has shut down! I loved it and usually came here twice a month. Loved the chicken and mushroom dumplings and the Chinese tea they served here!

LOVE Shanghai Dumplings House! Number 1 it is BYO! So perfect for when you are going out and want to bring a bottle of wine. #2 It is cheap! And #3 They have a great selection of meals to choose from!

i ordered the veggie dumplings and the sweet pumpkin dumplings, the veggie dumplings were great however the sweet pumpkin dumplings were a bit cold and rubbery. I would go back as those veggie dumplings were GREAT!

Approximate cost: $10

Shanghai Dumpling House is perfectly located in the heart of Chapel Street right near the Hungry Jacks. It is a big restaurant with plenty of room and tables.
I purchased a Scoopon Deal for all you can eat dumplings and it was delicious. We ate so many dumplings. You are given a menu and you just tell them what you like. You also get unlimited Chinese Tea while you are dining.
The service is quite average but if you get over that it is a great night and good value!

After buying an all you can eat scoopon, my partner and I were excited for a night filled with delicious dumplings! It was not to be so. The dumplings were tasteless (except the spinach one which tasted like grass), they were gluey, and most of them were cold. The spring onion pancake was tasteless stodge, and unfortunately the waiters didn't seem to know what they were doing, with some telling us they would bring us everything, and others coming to take an order.
There's potential for Shanghai Dumpling House to be a great spot on Chapel St to go, unfortunately it does not even compare to most of the other establishments in the area.
