We've ordered pan fried pork dumplings, boiled dumplings & 4 noodles. Noodles were great, boiled dumplings were okay, pan fried dumplings were not good. I didn't like it at all.

Water in washroom was really cold, hot water wasn't working. Washroom was clean.

Service was great.

We stumbled upon this place & decided to try it out. It was completely empty. The cashier was very courteous & greeted us. While we were using Google Translate to read the menu, a woman (who I assume is the owner & cook) noticed we were tourists & came out personally to translate & explain the menu to us. She said,'Everyone who comes here says that we have the best dumplings.' Spoiler alert: she was absolutely & undeniably 100% correct.

We ordered the kimchi, crushed cucumber salad, fried shrimp, & pork & coriander dumplings in broth. While the first three were amazing, the real showstopper was the dumplings. The dumplings were incredibly juicy & fresh, & the broth complemented the dumplings perfectly. We devoured the dumplings & had to convince ourselves not to order more. It was THAT good! It's quite literally the best dumplings we've ever had. We're seriously considering coming back tomorrow. Thanks so much for such a delicious meal!

This is usually the place we go to when looking for a quick & good takeout in the area.
Dumplings are always good, either fried or steamed.
Noodles were fine when I tried, & in good quantity.
Definitely recommend.

Had an absolute wonderful experience. Incredible dumplings (Some of the best we've had), delicious kimchi with the right amount of heat & perfectly cooked chicken fried rice. The woman that took care of us made us feel so welcome & answered all of our questions. Definitely will eat here again. :)

Super delicious & fresh dumplings, fried noodles with plenty of vegetables & tasty tofu, & great flavour on the cucumber salad. Everything was spiced perfectly. I wanted to get their Chinese meat hamburger too but she said that they were still braising the meat! I 1000% would eat here again, especially to taste their Chinese hamburger.
