Very good dumplings! We loved the pan seared mixed plate & we mixed our own sauce at the table. Nice place.

Its was our first taste of dumplings & the overall exerperience was 5/5 for all three: Food, Service, & Atmosphere! We ordered; the mixed steamed dumplings, & mixed potstickers. Both were combos that came with 2 springs rolls (for each of us) to start us off, & a coke. Spring rolls: surpast the crunch test, with 0% sogginess. Flavor-wise; blended together evenly throughout each bite. &, not one-flavor had too much flavor, or over-powering flavor overall to the spring roll. It was perfectly cooked & preped to our liking. Dumplings: were flavourful; & deliciously juicy. &, of course; piping hot fresh off the steamer. It was even more tastey when adding the sauces on the side. My absolute favorite piece we'd chosen on their menu in our entire order. My only regret was not ordering extra (steamed & friend) dumplings to take back home with us! The potstickers: were also very delicious; & flavorful! &, all-combined equally into a perfect & authentic taste. I assumed that the herb mixed together inside of the wrap within the meat, to have been Cilantro. Normally, that herb would taste like soap to the both of us. But, this time we got to experience somethng else. &, we were on the other-side of the herb; where both my partner, & i could really enjoy the taste for once, & became apart of that side! (Ifykyk) We're 4hrs away from the city of Montreal in a small town named Maniwaki, where none off these foods are readily available. So, we were a little apprehensive but for a first-timers perspective all of our expectations were beyond met. We are now hooked to the cuisine, & any chance we can get to experience their food again we will be dipping our toes further 100%!

Disappointing. Avoid the okonomiyaki (undercooked). The fried chicken was ok but the sauce was more a watered down ketchup than the usual spicy mayo.

Repas savoureux & service rapide. Nous avons essayé le sauté aux légumes avec les dumplings de boeuf à la coriandre. Avec la sauce chili, c'était un délice.

The food was excellent! Well cooked & good portions, salt may have been a bit lacking, but nothing a bit of soy sauce can't fix. Would recommend.

Lover the dumplings here! So authentic & clean tasting! We had the lamb with green onion, & beef with coriander, both steamed. They paired perfectly with the miso soup broth. Our server did a little mixology preparing our dipping sauce. Very cozy atmosphere, & good for people watching by the window. Such a chill place for a relaxed time with a soulful friend.

Bonne bouffe & relativement abordable. Dumpling porc & coriandre & soupe won tong excellents. Le général tao maison était très bon & ses légumes marinés + l'autre accompagnement était savoureux (kim shui?). Bon service, le serveur à montré aux enfants comment préparer le mélange de sauce à dumpling dans un petit bol. J'y retournerai!
