Mason's Dumpling Shop - Aurora

Five out of five! Given by myself and my 10 year old foodie. From the second we walked in we felt welcomed and the staff was attentive and friendly. We sat at the bar area, and within 1 minute of us sitting we had water and menus. A+. My son ordered green hot tea, and it came in a timely manner. For food, we ordered pork steamed dumplings, crab and pork steamed dumplings, fried pork dumplings, a beef bun, and beef noodles. Everything came out in a good order and as we were finishing our first courses. Perfect timing. The staff was great with recommending items on the menu. They also checked on us throughout the meal. My son after a few minutes was like their service gets a 5 star review from me. If you want an easy, quick meal and a nice clean spot with excellent service this is it!!! Well done!!!! We willCome back

I've been wanting to try Mason's Dumpling Shop for a while now and I'm glad I gave it a go. I would actually rate it 3.5 stars. We had beef noodles, pork belly bun, steamed soup dumplings, chicken yuzu soup dumplings (not pictured), pan fried chicken dumplings and mushroom meat noodles. My favorite was the steamed soup dumplings and the beef noodles. The meat filling in the soup dumplings was juicy and nicely seasoned. Only thing about them that I didn't like was that some were missing the soup in them - probably because of being steamed too long. The beef in the beef noodles was so tender that it was falling apart as you picked it up. I liked the pan fried chicken dumplings but wish they had a more crispy bottom. The service was quick and our server was really helpful. I will be trying Mason's out again for sure!

A solid Chinese restaurant that specializes in dumplings! The menu has variety of dumplings, noodles, and appetizers, but it is not overwhelming. We started with the Pork Belly buns, then the Steamed Soup Dumplings, Chive and Pork dumplings, and the Beef Noodle soup. The Pork Belly Buns were soft on the outside and the pork belly had a little crisp to it. The bun is stuffed pretty well.The Steam Soup Dumplings were very good, the broth was flavorful and the skin not too thick. However, each dumpling got stuck to the paper liner and ripped so the soup spilled out of every dumpling.The Chive and Pork dumplings were ok, I preferred the soup dumplings instead. But you do get a large amount for the price.The Beef Noodle Soup contained a good amount of noodles and beef and some bok choy. The broth was a little on the sweet side for my taste.Overall, a solid Chinese dumpling restaurant. I will return next time I am in the area.

Great staff is the first comment. They were so kind and eager to tell us all of their favorite items. We ordered 4 different dumplings and the pork (which came recommended) was hands down the star of the show!!! Will definitely be back!!

What a great place! I love that they had gluten free rice bowl options, I got the pork belly over rice and it was delicious, melt in your mouth! My friends god the dumplings and bao buns and had nothing but positive things to say about them. The inside is cute with great murals, lots of seating, and a clean simple aesthetic. Service was good too!

Food is superb! You can't go wrong with the pan fried pork dumplings. Price is pretty $ decent for the portions (10 dumplings for $12-13). The stewed angus beef rice is amazing and the Chinese pancakes as well.My coworkers and I have ordered in Mason's several times this year and this is the first time I'm dining in. Plenty of parking spaces and seating inside, they also have a bar. The servers were pretty attentive as well. Honestly, Mason's is my go-to place now for dumplings. Don't forget to ask for the chili oil packets!!

My work teammates have been raving about Mason's for some time. We finally all gathered and shared a meal. I ordered pork dumplings and enjoyed them, but they didn't wow me. Maybe I missed something? I did dip them into the spicy sauce which actually gave them great flavor. But on their own? Meh. One cool feature was being able to order and pay for your meal, using a barcode T the table. Perfect for larger parties.

Mason's is as safe and basic dumpling shop you can go to. Compared to more authentic Chinese places, this is pretty watered and westernized. It's your average of the mill shop but portions are good for it's price.The beef on rice reminded me of home, similar to what my dad used to make but with less fat. It was actually filling and the beef was tender and soft.The dumplings were average. We ordered the pan fried dumplings, one with pork and the other vegetarian option. The fillings both lacked flavor and the dough was thick. The dough to filling ratio was rather off. It's a good place to start if you want to get into Chinese dumplings and dim sum, but there are other places I would recommend over Mason's. It's still hard to beat Star Kitchen and Empress if you want a more authentic experience and flavors.

A very simple restaurant - we didnt realize it was a table-service establishment until we get inside. Lots of people were picking g up to-go orders at the counter. We tried the pork & shrimp soup dumplings as well as orders of not the steamed and pan-fried dumplings. All were excellent! Service was fast and all food came out piping hot.

Fabulous menu and generous portions. Very reasonable prices, will definitely be going back!! Nice vibe in the dining area.
