Mai Xiang Yuan is one of Montreal’s best dumpling restaurants. If you’re looking for a casual, cheap and speedy place to grab a bite, Mai Xiang Yuan is for you. Li Hui opened the Chinatown location in 2010, and a second location Downtown shortly after. They have been serving up steamy and flavourful Chinese dumplings since!
Ravioli Mai Xiang Yuan in Montreal's Chinatown is described as a cozy, unpretentious spot where the dumplings are the star and flavors feel homemade and authentic, with juicy pork, beef, lamb and chive fillings, chicken and shrimp options, and the famous soup dumplings that reviewers say are incredibly flavorful and comforting. The menu includes boiled and fried dumplings, cucumber salad, wood ear mushroom salad, and a cilantro and black mushroom salad, all praised for freshness, variety and satisfying portions at good value. Service is frequently highlighted as fast, friendly and attentive, though a cash only policy and on site ATM are noted by several reviewers, and a few mention occasional cleanliness concerns or pushy review requests. Overall, the place is seen as excellent value with high quality dumplings and a welcoming atmosphere that keeps guests coming back as one of the top dumpling spots in Montreal.
This place was so delicious, I loved all the food & it was so yummy. I got the pork dumpling with cilantro fried & steamed. Best dumpling I ever had. Would definitely recommend this place!
Je vais chez Mai Xiang Yuan depuis longtemps & à chaque fois je suis ravis, les dumpling sont délicieux & leurs salades sont tout aussi bonne, je recommande à tout les amateur de dumpling d'y aller, meilleur place a dumpling de Montréal
Super cute little restaurant. The food is really good. I recommend the dumplings & the wonton soup. A must go in Chinatown Mtl! Btw, it's cash only, but it isn't expensive so it worth it
Délicieux! Nous sommes venus la première fois sous recommandation d'Alyson Van Rassel & nous avons été séduit. Depuis, quand on passe par le quartier chinois de Mtl c'est un arrêt incontournable. Les juicy avec leur explosion de saveur... & de jus... sont juste wow!
Excellent dumplings, they taste home made & good price. Highly recommend for dumpling fans. We had the soup beef dumplings, the mushroom & cabbage & the dim sum shrimp ones. Cash only tho.
