About House of Dumplings 水餃之家
Located at 109 Appian Way, Union City, CA 94587, House of Dumplings 水餃之家 operates as a chinese restaurant serving Union City in California. This page gathers the practical details people usually look for before visiting: where it is, how to reach it, when it opens and how customers rate it.

In cities with a Chinatown, weekend mornings bring dim sum carts or order sheets, and lines form early at the most popular spots in Union City; walk-ins are standard and reservations are uncommon outside large banquet restaurants. Regional labels matter: Cantonese, Sichuan, Hunan, Shanghainese and Taiwanese kitchens cook very differently, so a restaurant's stated region is a better guide to the food than the word "Chinese" alone. Some smaller restaurants in California are BYOB with no corkage fee; call ahead to confirm. A tip of 15-20% is customary for table service but not expected at counter-order takeout. Spice level, MSG and allergen questions are normal to ask before ordering, and most kitchens are happy to leave an ingredient out or tone down the heat if you mention it when ordering rather than after the food arrives.
Hours are published for 6 days a week. On most of those days it is open 11 am–3 pm. Note that it does not open on Tuesday. Hours in the United States do change around federal holidays and long weekends, so a quick call before a special trip is sensible. The listed phone number is (510) 324-8868.

Union City is in California, on the West Coast, where the climate ranges from foggy coast to hot inland valleys, wildfire season can affect air quality in late summer, and traffic is the main thing to plan around. US addresses list the street number and name, then the city, state abbreviation and ZIP code, and Union City follows the same pattern; a suite or apartment number such as Ste 200 refers to a unit inside the building. The map link on this page shows the exact spot.

Super good and a lot of food for the price. I only had better in another city, thus the 4 stars. Almost 5 stars! Service was good, but slow making the order. That was ok, it meant it was very hot and fresh. I will go back again, most likely this week.

I love this place! Consistent Mom and Pop dim sum spot in an inconspicuous area. Instead of sitting in traffic, I suggest stopping off and enjoying dinner before you continue home. This is a quintessential hole in the wall that is very unassuming, but boy does it hit the spot. Another option: they sell frozen apps! Pick up some frozen pork buns and go home and steam them yourself for dinner, you’ll be the popular one! We got the XLBs, string beans, beef noodle soup (we asked to make it spicy), spicy dumplings, & 3 flavor dumplings. All 5 were delicious! String Beans- tasty, garlicky, wok fried to perfection. Great side addition to our mains. 3 flavor- great taster’s item if you can’t decide what you want. All the dim sum are well portioned for someone hungry patrons so eat up! Spicy dumplings- Amazing! The greatness of this dish is its simplicity: the pork and Napa cabbage dumplings with spicy chili crunch. XLB- soup dumplings are pretty standard gout a dim sum place now, but the difference here is it tastes homemade! Beef noodle soup- Excuse me??! Did you say top tier ? Thought so… a mix of canton style thick noodles, tender tender beef in a savory and tasty beef broth. As

Update - 11/2025: We always come here when we visit (we live across the nation) and eat dinner here and buy frozen dumplings so we can eat them later. The Multi-Layer Green Onion Pancake is delicious and fresh, crispy! The service is great and they always remember us even though we only get to come every 6 months or so. The dining area is quite small, but it doesn’t matter - the dumplings are the best! 2024: Haven’t been able to come for a while and man, still delicious little nuggets of joy! Love these dumplings and the multilayer green onion pancake. Even my girls (7&9) loved the multilayer green onion pancake and the chicken and corn dumplings. They ate the whole dozen of them between them and a piece of the pancake each. I ordered the 3 flavor dumplings (pork shrimp and chives) and my mom got the fish and chives. The service was fine, though with only one person working the front she was super busy. We are patient though and got everything we ordered and ate while we were there at one of the 5 small tables. Ambiance isn’t amazing because it’s so small and a little cramped but the dumplings are definitely worth it. The multilayer pancake is delicious and crispy as we

Additional Edit: Still one of my favourite places to visit when I'm in town. Just the perfect place to slowly drink some tea, and enjoy some perfect dumplings! Came here last year with a friend, and when I'm in the area I try to come here as much as I can. I really love the dumplings here, they are really authentic and have really good flavour. There are other things other than dumplings if dumplings are not for you! The family that runs the place here are always super friendly. Definitely worth your money here!

I sat in the car waiting a half an hour for this place to open, and it was worth the wait. The menu doesn't have any pictures, but you shouldn't worry, as there are several pictures on the wall. Also, don't feel shy about asking the waitress for recommendations. She gave us a whole review of what's popular for each section of the menu. Very friendly. The food was good. You can tell the dough for the dumplings is all made in-house. All necessary dipping sauces are on the table for you to assemble your own concoction. The place is a bit small, but I believe they have to-go orders if you can't get a table.
