This place has such great dumplings! I am such a huge fan of dumplings & have tried many places for the prices & the quality this place has me coming back time & time again. The lady at the front is always super sweet & they give you a little fortune cookie(my favourite).
The best! Their steamed dumplings are so good & always leave us wanting to come back again for more. Very sweet staff & speedy service, not to mention great prices for the amount of food. I'd recommend coming in the early afternoon or evening as the local high school kids can be a bit much after they finish school for the day (around 3:00pm/15heur) if they're there. Will definitely be back again soon!

Delicious authentic Chinese food. The Xiao long Bao (soup dumpling) is really good. Prices are decent, average. Nice couple who own & work there (I think). People come in here to dine in too, it's cute but not super atmospheric. Clean & tidy. I usually do take out. What I'm impressed by is the fact that at each table you get soy sauce, chili, & Chinese black vinegar!
Very good dumplings. The service was also quick & polite. The place is a bit small, but it's not too crowded so you should find a seat easily. Prices are standard.
Dumplings were heavenly & priced very fairly. The daily offer was 10.99 & very much enough for the average person. The rice cakes were absolutely horrid though. In the end the dumplings were so good that five stars are still accurate.
Delicious Chinese meals cooked upon request at unbeatable prices. Does not serve alcoholic drinks. Not accessible by wheelchair. Accepts cards & cash. Has dine in & take-away. Attentive & very professional staff. 5 stars for the quality/price ratio.
Delicious & filling dumplings for a very good price. Definitely my go to dumpling place! They have a good variety of different dumplings. My favorite is the steamed pork & chive dumplings.
We often get dumplings from MeiWei. They're well-made. Pricey on "the delivery app" but not so much if you go pick it up. We usually order 4 kinds of dumplings with some sides for 3 people: tempura shrimp, spicy cucumber salad, etc. Everything is always good. The service is fine & lightning fast. Hard to speak on the atmosphere because it's a small place in Westmount. So if you like cozy & quiet you will enjoy it.
