Oh Dumplings is widely recognized for serving delicious, freshly handmade dumplings and generous portions that offer excellent value for the price. While many guests praise the authentic flavors and quality of dishes like the General Tao chicken and various noodle plates, experiences regarding service can vary significantly. Some visitors enjoy attentive and friendly interactions, whereas others note inconsistent wait times, staffing challenges, and varying attitudes toward tipping. The atmosphere is generally considered casual and unpretentious, making it a popular spot for a quick lunch or group dining in Chinatown, though some guests have expressed mixed feelings about specific menu items or cleanliness levels.
Really great spot to get fresh made dumplings, pork cabbage were awesome. Other plates were on point as well. Beef & broccoli, general tao, rice noodles & chicken, chicken fried rice. Portions were generous. Prices far, service on point & it was packed when we walked in. These guys are use to being busy & pushing out great food.
UPDATE (01/13/2026)
I'm not removing my first-time review, this update is just me giving this place another chance, & this time I came with my family.
I'll be completely honest: this visit was much better. We were all satisfied & full, & I finally got to try their new special dumplings. Hot, very tasty, & perfect for the gloomy winter weather. There was almost no wait, & the food came out within just a few minutes.
Unfortunately, my family didn't get to try their fried rice because the chef who makes it was on break/vacation. But overall, my family was happy & satisfied, & for that reason I'm increasing my star rating.
Definitely a better experience this time around!
(First Review / First Experience) ★★★☆☆
We decided to try Oh Dumplings in Chinatown, but unfortunately, the experience was disappointing.
First thing to point out the service was very slow. We took into consideration that there were other people at the restaurant, but the delays were still hard to justify. Our order included Beef & Coriander Dumplings, Fish & Coriander Dumplings, General Tao Chicken, Chicken Noodles, Vegetable Fried Rice, & Wonton Soup.
The dumplings came out after about 15-20 minutes, followed by the General Tao shortly after. But then, we waited around 40-45 minutes for the rest of our food. By the time the noodles & fried rice arrived, we had already finished the dumplings & General Tao, sitting at an empty table for almost an hour just waiting for the rest. At that point, we honestly lost our appetite.
The food itself is okay nothing mind-blowing but decent. The dumplings were flavorful, especially with the coriander touch. The General Tao was on the sweeter side, which may not be for everyone. The fried rice & noodles were fine, but after waiting so long, we didn't really enjoy them as much as we could have.
Overall if you have patience & time to spare, the food is passable, but nothing about the taste justifies that long of a wait. We likely won't be returning anytime soon unless they improve the service speed.

We came here as a family of 6 on vacation & were seated immediately. I was overwhelmed with all the yummy options so we decided to order a bunch of dishes & all share them. This was the best restaurant we experienced in Montreal. The service was amazing & the food was some of the best Asian food I have had. We all cleaned the plates & left extremely satisfied. We had 4 different kinds of dumplings, fried rice & the noodles. (Lamb, beef with chive & another beef mixed with herbs. As well as pork chive.) 10/10 recommend.

Got a lamb skewer, a few bowl of noodles & soup, & pork chives dumplings pan fried with chilli oil & peanut sauce. Lamb skewer was good with great flavour & moist. The noodle soup wasn't overly salty & the soup base was flavourful while it didn't make me thirsty, the dumplings were incredibly flavourful & the extra sauces provided incredible amount of variety in taste. Overall great experience!
This is our go to when we are in the area!!! The dumplings are so tasty, the beef fried noodles are yummy. Always very satisfying, fast & great service. Just the water jugs are a bit sketchy.
Had a mixed experience. While the chicken dumplings, fried rice, & noodles were good, the veg dumplings & veg balls were not upto the mark (infact left them in the plate). Service was a bit disappointing-one waiter seemed rude (possibly due to the rush), & the 15% tip was automatically added to the bill, without giving us a choice. Overall, ok for non-veg lovers, but vegetarians & those expecting flexible service might be disappointed.
The staff were kind enough to seat us half an hour before the 9 pm closing, & spoke excellent English. We had an order of pork & cabbage dumplings, which were juicy & flavorful. Also had incredibly crispy & light salt & pepper chicken, & beef noodles, lightly fried, not greasy. True, it's not an extensive menu, but it was longer than the other dumpling place's down the street. The interior was basic & clean, but you're not coming for ambience. We enjoyed watching the ladies make the dumplings by hand, from their glassed in station. We're from out of town but eat good Chinese food often in NYC at its various Chinatowns. I can be snobby about Asian food, being Asian myself. I have this well proven theory that the best Chinese places don't bother too much about decor & fancy bathrooms, they are all about the food. This, my friends, is the real deal, although the menu isn't that adventurous, it's got some very well executed greatest hits. My somewhat picky 8 year old couldn't stop eating the dumplings & chicken! We will try to eat here again during our trip.
