Why it's worth checking out
Dumpling Social sits on Bradley Street at Phillip, in the Woden town centre in Canberra's south. A much-loved restaurant specialising in dumplings and Asian cuisine, it's earned a strong reputation — combining quality, flavour-packed dumplings and dishes with a good drinks offering and a fun, characterful setting, the kind of tasty, sociable spot that's become a genuine local favourite.
The appeal is that combination of quality dumplings and Asian food, a good drinks offering and a relaxed, characterful atmosphere in a convenient Phillip location, ideal for a meal with friends, a date, a tasty feed or a sociable night out. Quality dumplings done well, with a fun vibe, are a genuine crowd-pleaser, and Dumpling Social has clearly won over a big, loyal following.
