Waiter table service both inside & out, Menus are presented on a waterproof plasticized card. Dumplings are the house specialty, handmade & served in their authentic wooden steamers.
I enjoyed the breaded crispy chicken with Katsu sauce & sticky rice. Delicious. Always friendly lady at the counter is very cooperative.
We shall return, again & again.

Delicious, what else do I need to say? Authentic, original & homemade dumplings, with a cute inside & nice patio. My new go-to spot in Westmount/NDG. Amazing pricing too, $12 for 15 dumplings

Very kind workers, very delicious food, our plates were cleared in 30 minutes. 10/10, would recommend. Unpretentious & homely in the best way. Will return!
Great dumplings & very friendly people. I definitely recommend trying it out, the juicy pork soup dumplings were delicious. The place is very small though, so keep that in mind, but there is outdoor seating!
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.
C'est le meilleur restaurant où je me suis rendu à Montréal ! Je trouve même le prix trop bas par rapport à la qualité de la nourriture ! Les deux propriétaires sont des anges !!
J'y retournerai les yeux fermés !! À recommander !!
Sincèrement conquis par cet endroit !
Merci à eux 💛💛

Best dumpling place in Montreal!!!! Simply delicious & affordable as well. The owners are absolute sweethearts, it's my go to place for lunch & I wouldn't go anywhere else !
This place is a gem for food & bubble tea but don't get the bubble tea if the man makes it. The woman makes it way better. She actually puts milk instead of water.
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.
