Qing Hua Dumpling is praised for fresh, handmade dumplings with ultra-thin wrappers and juicy fillings, offering a wide menu that covers pork, shrimp, lamb, and vegetarian options. Prices are affordable and portions generous, making it a solid value whether dining in or ordering takeout. Service is fast and the staff are friendly and attentive, contributing to a welcoming vibe even when the restaurant is busy. Many reviews call it a reliable go to spot in Chinatown and note a lively atmosphere alongside consistently tasty dumplings. The soup options and sides like wonton soup and pickled cucumbers complement the dumplings, and the chef's surprises are often well received. While crowds and noise can be part of the experience, the overall experience is described as authentic and satisfying, with many repeat visits.
Fairly loud place even though the restaurant was not full, maybe people were just very loud while we were there...? Not the type of atmosphere that would make you want to hang around. The peanut butter dumplings were ok but a very small portion, not really appropriate for sharing unless you just want a bite to taste. We ordered 2 mixed baskets of 15 dumplings, the pork & green onions, the shrimp leek & egg were tasty but the chicken & corn were not good, the pork & pickled cabbage were average. Maybe others are tastier, but we could not know which ones. We tried to get advice from our server, but she was not too convincing on the popular ones to recommend... Definitely an inexpensive meal including tips: $42.94 It is ok for a quick bite, but there are other dumplings places in town which could possibly offer a better quality dumplings
A perfect stumble upon.... It looked inviting & there was no line out the door like some other places. We had hot & sour soup & the Pork mushroom dumplings. I ordered them fried but feel like i should have ordered them steamed, maybe we'll sneak back tomorrow & do a real comparison. Anyway the dumplings were excellent, service was good & it's a cool place. Lots of good restaurants in the area but you can't go wrong here if you love dumplings. By the time we left at 7 there was a line out the door :)

Quick & fast, no frills Chinese dumplings. Got the classic shrimp pork & coriander steamed You can see the whole shrimp pieces so you know they didn't skimp out! Credit card accepted which is a plus in the area. 5 out of 5 jawns
Simple yet efficient ! The true nature of your dumplings are revealed when you take your first mouthful & get to enjoy the broth that steamed inside . Some of my top pick are : pork & coriander, lamb & aneth, leek shrimp & egg & the last one curry beef ! Lunch time is almost always full during the weekday so be early or late if you're a big group ! Enjoy !
Tasty dumplings in a comfy environment -- I can't wait to return. I dined in late on a Monday night, & I loved stepping into a bustling resto after walking through le Quartier Chinois' neon-lit, energetic streets. It was only a 10-minute wait to be seated, & then I was digging the youthful vibes around me: a combination of twentysomething & thirtysomething hipsters; young, middle-aged & senior couples & solo diners like myself. All of us hungry! What I didn't like was watching servers skip me to take orders from a few groups of three diners -- that caused me to have to wait a half-hour for a server to take my order. Not good. & all I had during the waiting period was a pitcher of water with lemon wedges. Then, once my order -- pan-fried pork & chive dumplings (I didn't mind the $1.50CAD extra for pan-searing) -- was taken, it took more than a half-hour more for my meal & a can of Coke to arrive. Was my plate of pan-fried dumplings worth the excruciating wait? Yes, oui & si! I was so hungry that I used only soy sauce, but I ate a few of the porkilicious morsels naked, & they were divine! Next time I'll try some of the condiments that are provided at every table. But yah, I left satisfied both in belly & wallet. As a U.S. citizen using a credit card, I benefited from the exchange rate & zero international fee (merci, Capital One!), so I didn't even feel the tiny extra cost for selecting the pan-fried method over the (default) steamed method. I must mention that having the choice of using a major credit card or some of my CAD cash was a really nice surprise, as I'd "misremembered" that Qing Hua Dumpling House didn't accept credit cards. The restaurant does accept credit cards. As this was my first night out of seven on my Québec province vacation trip, I decided I'd better hold onto my Canadian cash a bit longer. & I was smart, because some eateries in Montreal -- from Chinatown to La Petite-Italie -- don't accept credit cards. In fact, midway through my vacation, I needed to visit a currency exchange office (in Québec City) because I wanted to make sure I had enough CAD cash (including those helpful loonies & twoonies) to leave tips: for housekeeping in the hotel rooms, for doormen & concierge at hotels, for tour guides *&* the drivers of those tour buses, for donations at houses of worship (although I hadn't planned to visit any, I went to three, including St. Joseph's Oratory in MTL), & for food from food trucks & carts at the Just for Laughs Festival in MTL. So, with major credit cards & CAD cash on my person next time I'm in Canada, I'll be stopping by Qing Hua Dumpling House when I reach Montréal. Not only do I love its cuisine & its operating hours, but I also adore its overall vibe. The front-of-the-house employee (not sure if he's the manager) was so welcoming & kind, just one of the coolest businesspeople I encountered on this trip, that I'd return to Qing Hua Dumpling House to experience his sophisticated & charming blend of hospitality ... even after a 13-hour rail trip to MTL from NYC. S'il vous plait, incloyez la Maison Qing Hua dans votre prochain visite au Montréal. Merci.
Food was real good, we had steamed lamb & coriander, pan fried shrimp pork & leek, as well as peanut noodles.
Service was a bit slow at first, menus took some time to get here, & it was quite busy so somewhat understandable. Found a hair in the noodles, we ate it anyway, & when we told the waitress, the manager came shortly after to apologize & offered the noodles & my beer on the house.
To offer the noodles on the house, that’s expected. To offer the beer on the house, that’s going above expectations, hence the 5 star rating.
All that to say, I’d go back!
