Great little place! Service was quick & good. Had the cucumber salad & vegan steamed dumplings (love the variety of vegan options!). Probably wouldn't get the cucumber salad again, but would definitely come back for the dumplings & would love to try them fried!
2026: delivery, lamb & coriander & beef & onion were pretty good but not as good as before unfortunately. Followed instructions perfectly.
2023: Friendly service, the fried lamb & coriander dumplings were perfect. My friend enjoyed his beef & coriander ones. Wish they did delivery.
A bit warm but lovely food & refreshing cucumber salad the dumplings are great fried & steamed but we preferred fried as you could get a bit of both it was excellent
Really cozy & charming spot near mount royal. I discovered this place accidentally because there very little advertising. It looks like an apartment but actually a cozy restaurant. Small & quiet place with great food. The menu is nice, service is great. We had 2 plates. One steamed & one fried. The friend dumplings were better. We will be back for sure.
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.
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
A hidden dumpling paradise in Montreal that feels like someone's cozy living room!
The Dumpling Hut in Montreal truly feels like you've stepped into someone's house & magically been handed a plate of some of the best dumplings in Canada. The space is small, warm, & full of charm. It is nothing fancy but has that relaxed & welcoming vibe that makes you want to stay forever. It honestly feels like a secret spot that only locals know about & part of me wanted to keep it that way.
The service was lovely. The staff was kind, calm, & made you feel at home right away. The menu is clear & available in both English & French. The selection of dumpling fillings is surprisingly big with both classic options & some creative ones for the adventurous.
Every dumpling we had was juicy, well-seasoned, & perfectly cooked. Whether boiled or fried, they were absolutely delicious. The dipping sauce? A quiet masterpiece.
The only thing I didn't love was the toilet. It's there & it works but that's about all I can say. Still, when the food is this good, you just laugh it off.
Highly recommended for anyone visiting Montreal. Come hungry, bring a friend, & maybe use the restroom somewhere else beforehand.

Ein verstecktes Dumpling-Paradies mitten in Montreal, das sich anfühlt wie ein gemütliches Wohnzimmer
The Dumpling Hut in Montreal fühlt sich an, als würde man versehentlich in jemandes Wohnzimmer stolpern und dann völlig überraschend einen Teller mit einigen der besten Dumplings in ganz Kanada bekommen. Der Laden ist klein, gemütlich und total einladend. Es ist nichts Schickes, aber man fühlt sich sofort wohl. Ganz ehrlich, es fühlt sich an wie ein Geheimtipp, den nur Einheimische kennen, und ein kleiner Teil von mir möchte, dass das auch so bleibt.
Der Service war wunderbar. Die Mitarbeitenden waren freundlich, entspannt und man hatte sofort das Gefühl, willkommen zu sein. Die Speisekarte ist übersichtlich und auf Englisch und Französisch verfügbar. Die Auswahl an Füllungen ist groß mit klassischen Varianten genauso wie kreativeren, für die etwas Mutigeren.
Jeder Dumpling war saftig, gut gewürzt und auf den Punkt gegart. Egal ob gekocht oder gebraten, sie waren durchweg lecker. Und die Sojasauce dazu war richtig gut abgestimmt.
Einziger Minuspunkt: die Toilette. Sie ist da, sie funktioniert, mehr aber auch nicht. Doch ganz ehrlich, bei so gutem Essen nimmt man das mit einem Lächeln in Kauf.
Eine klare Empfehlung für alle, die in Montreal unterwegs sind. Kommt mit Hunger, bringt am besten noch jemanden mit und nutzt vielleicht vorher noch woanders die Toilette.
Walked 30mins to get here. I ordered fried pork, zucchini & shrimp dumplings to go. I didn't realize it wasn't fried (but steamed) until I had left. I liked the meal but would have very much preferred the fried option, more so because I paired extra for it.
