Overall, this spot is widely recommended as a reliable, tasty option for dumplings, with many finding it a go to for fresh, well seasoned, homemade style bites.
Best dumplings in Montreal, always freshly made, delicate, chewy dough. I wish there was a straight up shrimp dumplings, or more blends of lamb
Edit: could you also do some shrimp & chives dumplings ? Thank you
The best dumpling we've found in Montreal, & it's 5mns from home !
The taste is amazing, dumpling are freshly made & the prices are very competitive.
The restaurant room is cozy (pretty small so get there early!) & the service is friendly, professional & on point !
The only thing is that it can be noisy sometimes, but that's definitely not a deal breaker!

We're from Arepera du Plateau, & we're so lucky to have The Dumpling Hut as our neighbors! Their food is fresh, flavorful, & always delicious - everything on the menu is excellent. The dumplings are perfect, the service is super friendly, & the team is always welcoming. Wonderful people & amazing food right next to us! 🥟
The Dumpling Hut is a small, cosy spot with a warm, homey feel, the kind of hidden gem you might walk past if you don't look closely. The entrance is tucked in, & inside you'll find a wall covered in handwritten Post-it notes that adds a lot of charm & personality.
The dumplings are fresh & clearly made with care, & you can watch the prep happen behind the counter. We shared a mix: chicken & mushroom, lamb & coriander, cabbage & mushroom & seaweed & cucumber salad. Everything was satisfying & well-balanced, nothing too oily or heavy. The chicken & mushroom stood out, & the cucumber salad on the side was a refreshing touch.
Service is quick & friendly. The space is simple & unpretentious, but the food more than makes up for it.
Tips:
Go with two or three people so you can try more dishes without waiting long.
Order a mix of steamed & fried dumplings, depending on what's fresh that day.
Expect a short wait at peak times.
A relaxed, local spot for handmade dumplings that feel home-cooked & comforting. I'd go back for sure.
Staff was very kind & helpful. We ordered the pork/chive & lamb/coriander, both regular, plus seaweed salad. Plenty of food for two adults & two kids with a few dumplings for later. The seaweed salad was delicious. The dumplings, fresh & amazing. My favorite, the lamb. The kids, the pork. Would eat there again & order the same!
Transcendent flavours. Ethereal vibes. These may sound like inflated superlatives, but I assure you they are not. I've recommended this place to at least ten friends & family members & they've all also loved it. The menu is succinct, the dumplings are succulent, & the salads are fresh...what more could you ask for in a dumpling joint?!

We went for lunch in this little place & it was a very charming experience. As tourists looking to try as many dumplings as places as we could, this was a great spot. The first thing you feel is that you have arrived at a restaurant that is loved by their neighborhood, with a down to earth atmosphere & decoration. The dumplings are freshly made individually at the back of the shop, & you can see them being made. This freshness is noticeable in the food, as you can eat more a lot before feeling full. Really recommend the lamb & coriander dumplings.
I recently tried the cabbage & mushroom dumplings, & they were absolutely delicious! The filling was fresh & well-seasoned, with a perfectly soft wrapper. My friend had the lamb & coriander dumplings & loved the tender lamb paired with the freshness of coriander. To top it off, our server was incredibly kind & attentive, which made the experience even better. Highly recommended!
Great little place, only a few tables. You can watch dumplings being hand made in open kitchen. We only tried vegetarian options & they were wonderful. Dumpings were fresh & very tasteful.

amazing pork zucchini & shrimp dumplings. rich broth of the wonton soup while sitting you can see the chef rolling the dumplings & wontons by hand by far a must see place with a cute ambiance with delicious food as fresh as it can get
Great tasting dumplings at a good price. Hand made, tasted fresh. Server was helpful & attentive. I had the standards. Pork + cabbage, & Lamb + cilantro. Vinegar is clutch. Hot sauce could use an upgrade.
