Ugly Dumpling started as a family kitchen in Edison and became a go-to for authentic Shanghai-style xiaolongbao. Every soup dumpling is hand-pleated using the traditional 18-pleat method to seal in hot, savory broth. Beyond XLB, the menu spans dim sum, bao buns, wontons, noodles and comforting fried rice.
