“My husband and I have visited the Dumling Tree quite a lot recently. Sometimes just the two of us and others with friends. We have loved the food and the atmosphere! Our favourite dish is prawn dumplings and wonton soup although we have been trying other dishes and we have only good feedback to the restaurant. Thank you for always making us feel so welcome!”

“I was surprised to find some solid Chinese food in Cambridge! My waiter was very friendly and the food came out pretty quickly, and pricing was reasonable. I thought the pork and chive dumplings were better than the beef noodle soup, but the latter was still solid. Maybe a bit too oily for my taste, especially when compared to others I’ve had in the Bay Area, California. Still, it was a good experience and I like that they had free reliable WiFi. The only thing is I wish they had AC, as it was hot inside and they left the windows open so flies got in and annoyed me while eating. This seems to be a UK-wide issue though, but I know there are some restaurants which have installed AC so I must give credit where it is due.”

“Have now been 3 times, every visit has been perfect, food is always absolutely brilliant and service matches this. The salt and pepper chips are genuinely some of the best I have ever had! Will keep coming back and cannot recommend enough.”
