La Maison Dumplings (The Dumpling Hut) comes across as a cozy hidden gem where handmade dumplings are prepared fresh and served in a warm, homey space, with the option to watch dumplings being made behind the counter. Reviewers describe the skins as chewy and the fillings juicy, with favorites including pork and dill, lamb coriander, beef and onion, and a variety that often includes cucumber salad and miso soup; many say the dumplings are among the best in Montreal and praise the wide variety and quality. The menu accommodates both steamed and fried dumplings, with vegetarian options noted as well and prices viewed as fair for the portion size. Service is described as fast and friendly, though crowds can make it feel busy and a couple of visits note the service at peak times was not perfect. The atmosphere is charming and intimate, sometimes a bit noisy, but the space is appreciated for its cozy house vibe and the chance to sample a range of flavors with friends or family. 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.
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.
A rare gem when it comes to dumplings in Montreal! After trying several dumpling places, I chose this one as my favorite. The atmosphere, the quality of the dumplings, the charm of a restaurant in a house, & the many options make it my top choice. I recommend it to everyone.

Went here twice during our stay in montreal & would probably visit a thrid time if we didnt have to leave today. Yummi dumpling served in what feels like a friends living room. You can watch the Dumpings being shaped in the back of the room & the taste is exquisite. Charming little Business with great qualitiy products, quick, uncomplicated & welcoming.
We found this place while walking through the neighborhood.
It was about a 15 mins wait & it didn't disappoint.
We had 2 steam dumpling orders & 2 wonton soups. Our kids really enjoyed the soup dumplings. Would definitely come back when we're back in town.

you can choose to have your dumplings either steamed or fried, but for whatever reason the fried dumplings don't even come with a SKIRT!! also the fried dumplings cost extra & are barely any different than the steamed ones
cool little spot anyways with an area where you can write your own little post-it at the entrance
