Went here around 7pm. Wait time was around 20 minutes at least. I ate my food in 5. It was okay, but I could not feel the coriander in my dumplings with pork & coriander.

The wait staff was also going back & forth past our table & it was bothering me a lot, cause every time they would brush against my hand unless I moved it.

The glass with water was dirty.

Some fruit fly around. Will not be coming back.

Amazing dumpling place right in St Catherine, tried the pork/leek & pork/coriander pot sticker dumplings & both were really tasty & crispy, cold peanut butter noodles also great, price was good too, would definitely try again next time I'm craving dumplings.

The dumplings here are so good & such reasonable prices, especially for downtown Montreal. Their weekday lunch specials are a great deal. I had the Pork Mongolian Shaomai Combo & upgraded my drink to a hot & sour soup. It came with 10 dumplings, 2 imperial rolls & the soup. My husband had the Chicken & Mushroom dumplings combo & upgraded it from steamed to pan-fried. His combo came with either 2 imperial rolls, cucumber salad or seaweed salad & he chose cucumber salad. Everything was delicious. The Shaomai are like soup dumplings. So big, juicy & filled with soup. The pan-fried dumplings were crispy on the outside & juicy on the inside. The hot & sour soup was filled to the brim, steaming hot & so delicious. The cucumber salad was refreshing & didn't have cilantro like at other restaurants. The imperial rolls were crispy. Dumplings are made fresh to order. Definitely recommend!

Ordered the pork & green onion dumplings; every bite was hot & juicy, though the flavor was only ok. I wish they informed me orally that there’s extra fees of $1.5 for ordering the pan seared dumplings. Despite that the service was very pleasant & friendly.
