The absolute best dumplings I've ever had in my life. We were recommended here & they did not disappoint. Great prices & nice service. The dumplings were so fresh & the wonton soup was very flavorful. We would definitely return.

Je recommande absolument ce restaurant !
L'accueil, le service, le respect & l'hygiène sont vraiment impressionnants. J'ai mangé sur place & j'attendais en rechargeant mon téléphone. Pendant ce temps, j'ai vu les cuisinières prendre leur pause devant moi : leurs uniformes étaient très propres & leur manière de partager leur dîner m'a même redonné de l'appétit !

Merci à Isabelle pour ta patience & tes recommandations.😍
La nourriture était excellente.
Je reviendrai, car j'ai eu une très belle expérience.

Les dumplings étaient bons & bien assaisones. On sentait bien le porc & la crevette. Les portions sont généreuses.

Le service est professionnel & efficace.

Je recommande ce restaurant.

The portion of the dumpling set is generous & very tasty. The pickled tofu with Lao Gan Ma sauce, in particular, is full of flavor. Highly recommended!

Seems to be like a tradition for us to grab a snack or a meal here every time we are in town! They never disappoint! Not cucumber appetizer is always a highlight & you can't go wrong with any of the dumplings. Today we tried the Chef's Choice & all of them were delicious! It's actually kind of fun to have mystery bites!

This dumpling restaurant came highly recommended & they did not disappoint! Thank goodness we got the last table because right afterwards, a huge lineup built up & after we ate our food, we knew exactly why! There is a large selection of different dumplings & we selected one steamed & one fried along with appetizers of hot & sour soup & the pickled cucumbers. All of the selections were beautifully prepared. The soup was rich & flavorful & the cucumbers were cool & refreshing. The dumplings were generously filled & very juicy! For sure will be back next time we are in town!

L'endroit est très mignon, mais il manquait visiblement de musique pour une atmosphère moins'lourde'. Côté bouffe, ce ne sont pas les meilleurs dumplings que j'ai mangé, mais la variété de choix était intéressante & faisait changement des classiques de d'habitude. Je recommande celui au porc & Kimchi qui était excellent. Je n'y retournait pas, mais l'expérience était nice.

À noter qu'il n'y a pas de Sriracha sur place...

I worked at this restaurant for over a year & half, & my experience was quite disappointing. I believe it's important to share the serious hygiene & operational issues that I encountered during my time here.

One of the most concerning aspects is the restaurant's lack of attention to cleanliness & food safety. I personally saw rats, cockroaches, ants, & flies, which creates an unhealthy environment for both employees & customers. This level of neglect impacts the dining experience & raises major health concerns, & they were reported & had health inspections during the time I was here.

The cleanliness of the kitchen & dining areas also raises serious concerns. I have seen food mishandled, including dumplings that were dropped on the floor, wiped & then steamed again for customers. Moldy steamer trays are kept in use because the owner doesn't want to get it replaced, & teapots are merely rinsed rather than thoroughly cleaned. After customers leave, the water in glass bottles is not emptied before being reused, meaning that the next table drinks water that was originally used by someone else. I had also occurred once that the customer found out that the dumplings had a steamed cockroach in their plate. Sometimes there would be cockroaches just casually crawling across the dining table.

Side dishes are stored in cheap plastic containers, which raises concerns about potential microplastic ingestion, even the wonton soup is microwaved. The lack of proper cleaning & sanitation extends to the steam trays, which are only lightly rinsed just with water by waitresses & waiters, as I was stopped a few times that I wanted to wash them with dish soap. As a result, the first customers of the day may receive food prepared in clean trays, but subsequent customers are served from trays that have only been hastily rinsed.

In addition, the management/HR practices are non existent. The manager plays favorites & the shift allocation was unpredictable. Employees received fewer shifts & by giving minimal or zero shifts so that leads them to quit by their own eventually. This creates an unstable work environment with little job security. I also once witnessed the manager using a waitress's phone to leave a fake 5-star review for the restaurant, which is highly unethical & misrepresents the true customer experience.

The workload itself is overwhelming, with staff expected to do everything-ranging from taking orders & serving food to preparing side dishes, cleaning tables, & washing steam trays & beer glasses, assigning seats, prepare takeout orders, making customers pay, counting the cash by the end of the shift, yet we are paid 12.6 dollars per hour. Additionally, waitresses & waiters do not receive 100 percent of the tips.

The combination of poor management, unclean facilities, & unsanitary practices makes this restaurant a place I cannot recommend for either employment or dining.

We chose some dumplings that we knew we would enjoy & also went for the chef's surprise, which consisted of 15 dumplings in 5 different varieties. In my opinion, the dumplings from that were pretty hit or miss, so I recommend sticking to ones you know you'll like.

I love dumplings so much I had to check this place out. I just got what the server recommended & stated was their most popular dumplings - the pork & cabbage. They were so good, so juicy & packed with flavour. The only thing I would suggest to the restaurant is to create a better tasting or unique chilli oil which could really elevate the dumplings even further. You have to check this out if you're in Chinatown in MTL & love dumplings. The prices are also so reasonable & so far from breaking the bank!

Incroyable soupe aux dumplings ! Nous avions l'habitude d'aller chez Sammy Soupe Dumpling, mais désormais, nous irons à ce restaurant. Les dumplings y sont bien plus savoureux, & vous recevez 15 gros morceaux pour seulement 12,99 $. Je vous le recommande fortement !
