Review Summary

Overall, impressions from the reviews show Impression Dumplings as a popular, affordable spot with a wide variety of dumplings described as juicy and flavorful, with many diners preferring chicken options and both fried and steamed versions, plus tasty soups and vegetarian dishes. The food is praised for freshness and handmade quality, and service is repeatedly described as friendly and attentive in a cozy, casual setting. Quick service and good value come up often, and multiple visitors say they plan to return. Some notes mention longer waits, a slightly cool atmosphere at times, and a few experiences with soggy delivery, but these are outweighed by consistent praise for comforting, well priced dishes. The menu's breadth, including vegetarian options and a range of dumpling styles, makes it a dependable choice for families and groups, with strong recommendations to try some of the signature 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!

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%!

Small restaurant, they have a good variety of dumplings in the menu from steamed to fried, I tried the lamb with green onions & the beef with coriander, they were both good & an appetizer. The service I rated it like that because of the warmth of the cashier/server, overall it is a decent place to try.

I ordered the mixed steamed dumplings to go. When I got back to the office I ended up with their General Tao.

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.
