The experience is often described as quick and friendly service when not overwhelmed, though the place can get busy and seating limited, leading to lines and occasional delays during peak hours. Reviews highlight the aroma, the comforting and authentic flavors, and the overall value, with many calling the dumplings the best in Montreal, and the place a great spot for casual meals, dates, or sharing with friends. Side dishes like kimchi are praised, while cucumber salad and certain salads receive mixed feedback, and some guests wish for easier access to spices such as chili oil. Overall, this is a beloved dumpling destination that delivers consistently tasty dumplings and a warm, welcoming vibe, best experienced by arriving early or being prepared to queue.
Dumplings 10/10, came relatively quickly
Warm sake, super yum, should've shared one instead of each getting our own. A bit understaffed. Great vibe & great food. Reasonable prices. Would definitely come back.
I got take out soup dumplings & a salad. The salad dressing was the best! Spicy & nutty, really unique. The soup dumplings were okay. A bit bland. Little liquid. My main complaint was the wait. Once I had paid they told me to wait 20 mins. It was like 45 mins until they were ready... Not really worth the wait IMO
C'est la troisième fois qu'on vient & c'est toujours aussi bon ! La pâte est fine & moelleuse & les garnitures très bonnes . Le service est rapide & chaleureux . Je recommande à 100% Parfait pour un date avec des amis !
