Loved the variety of dumplings on the menu. The pork & chive ones were my favorite, & the dipping sauce was spot on.

I did not have the best experience here. The waiter left in the middle of taking my order to clear another table & then spent about 10 minutes seating other tables before coming back. They also spilled water all over our table, which made things even worse.
The restaurant itself is very crowded & small, making it feel uncomfortable. The food came out fairly quick after our order was put in it was actually very good & filling we had the pork & the shrimp soup dumplings however they didn't provide a small plate or spoon for my soup dumplings, which made eating them quite unpleasant.
Overall, while the food was good, the poor service & cramped environment made this a little disappointing.

Great little restaurant. Have had both the fried & steamed dumplings, both pork & chicken & all are excellent. The bao bun is also great. Super friendly staff & great to sit at the counter & watch them do everything.

Commençons par préciser que je n'ai pas aimé mon expérience alors que je suis généralement facile a contenter. Visiblement, il y a ici un problème de communication... pour le français on repassera... & même la langue des signes ne fonctionne pas. J'ai pointé le plat de mon voisin en indiquant que c'est ce que je voulais... mais non, j'ai eu autre chose. D'ailleurs pendant mon diner au moins un autre client a indiqué ne pas avoir eu ve qu'il avait commandé. Côté nourriture, la salade verte était vraiment bonne. J'ai eu des dumpling porc & coriandre. Ordinaires, le goût de la pâte enterrait celui de la farce. Rarement, j'ai vu un endroit qui n'offrait pas le piquant (huile de chili, pâte de piment) pour ajouter au vinaigre & soya... il fallait payer pour cette addition. & le service... minimal. Il y a bien meilleur à Montréal pour moins cher.
