Sammi & Soupe Dumpling is widely praised for handmade dumplings with a thin skin and juicy, flavorful fillings, from classic pork and chive to lamb and shrimp, with many noting strong vegetarian and vegan options and a standout wonton soup. The menu feels crafted and comforting, with sauces like peanut sauce that many diners love and a variety of bowls and bao to suit different tastes. Dishes are described as fresh, flavorful, and well made, giving a homemade feel even in a fast service setting. The atmosphere is casual and bustling in Chinatown, with quick, friendly service that keeps lines moving and prices that are seen as a great value. While waiting times can be long during peak periods, the consensus is that the dumplings and soups justify the wait. Takeout and dine-in are both popular, with dine-in preferred for the full soup-dumpling experience.
I liked the jasmine tea & how it was presented as it was great to share, the dumplings were tasty, & the soup was also good.
The service was good, but the place was packed, so the food took a while, but it's understandable, however because of that it was super noisy, & you could hear others people's conversations.
Best Xiao Long Bao in Montreal without a doubt, & rivals my favourite place back in Toronto where I live.
Great flavour, good amount of soup, nice texture, & a fairly solid price as well.
Also got the Red Bean Bao for dessert which IMO was a bit overpriced, but very tasty, with a good amount of filling.
For the people this pertains to: BE WARNED COMING HERE DURING OTAKUTHON. It is literally impossible to get a seat here during Otakuthon, because everyone knows how good the dumplings are here (not impossible bur you have to wait upwards of 2 hours for a table, cause everyone knows how good this place is).
Service is very fast & responsive & they speak both English & French.
The food here is among the best of its kind we have ever had. Personally, I think the xiao long bao is more tasty than the potsticker. At meal time, this place is packed & with lots of people waiting for table. The servers are professional & efficient, which enabled the tables to be turn around quickly.

We love soupy dumplings & have had our share of soup dumplings. It is one of the best. The wrap is thin & the filling is of good portion. The dumplings are juicy & tasty. The cucumber is so flavourful. I am a bit disappointed that the dessert is sold out.
This location is in the heart of Chinatown. A small place so a bit cramped & there could be lineup as it appears to be popular.
Amazing lunch spot in Montreal! We had the Juicy Pork & Coriander Dumplings, Beef Teriyaki Dumplings, & the Hot & Sour Cucumber starter, all super tasty & fresh. The beef teriyaki dumplings were our favourite. Service was excellent too; our waiter spoke English, French, Spanish, & Portuguese, & was incredibly friendly & helpful. Food came out quickly & everything was delicious
I visited this dumpling spot & had to wait about 25 minutes to get seated, which was a bit long but expected since it was busy. After sitting down, it took another 10 minutes to receive our first dish, the sammi, which was tasty but I wish it came sooner. We ordered dumplings #13, #18, #20, & #25-all were solid, but #18 was the standout! The lamb filling was incredibly juicy & flavorful, making it my favorite. The service was okay-nothing exceptional, but the staff was polite. The environment is simple & no-frills, focusing more on the food than ambiance. Overall, a good spot for dumplings, especially if you're patient!
The dumplings are definitely delicious & flavorful but the portion sizes are small & quite overpriced for what you get. Don't come hungry, because you won't leave full.
The place itself is very small, & when it's full (which is often), it gets really loud, making it hard to chat or enjoy a relaxed meal. On top of that, the service leaves a lot to be desired. We patiently raised our hands for about 10 minutes before anyone noticed us, & even then, it took another 5 minutes for them to come back. We waited roughly 15 minutes or more just to get our water refilled, & about 20-35 minutes to get served.
Overall, it's a cute spot if you're in the mood for a quick, tasty treat.. but don't expect a full meal or attentive service.
Tasty, friendly, but how they handle with the order they misheard could have been better. We told them we still like the wrong dumplings that came out, out of courtesy, saying were willing to pay for them, so we just want to correct the final payment, as the one came out was cheaper than what we ordered. First they said the dumplings were the right one, it just doesn't look like it... which we ordered shrimps but came out to be pork. However, it looked like a way too much of pork. They took a photo, & we took a photo, before they took the dumplings away. They then told us they want to give shrimps for free, we said we're full, & we just want to bill to be corrected to pork, instead of shrimps. Then they came to us again that we don't have to pay for the wrong one- at this point we just wanted to leave since we finished eating, so told them okay. Then they came to us again, the order we made at the beginning says that we ordered pork. Which means, the server got the wrong order. & they told us to pay for it, in a way that as if we lied, or we were confused. Well, if we're confused, I don't think we would have asked to correct the bill, or never asking for the correct one, & we never order the same pork twice, but anyways we paid all & the full tips. Also, we didn't get the dumpling back they took away. It could have been nice if they gave us a single sentence of apology for receiving the order incorrectly, instead of "it says you ordered pork dumplings". Until before than, it was great. Hopefully next time I'll get the one I ordered!
The dumplings here are delicious. We tried the pork & cabbage ones & the lamb ones & they were both very tasty. There was also juice on the inside of it. So be careful one the first bite. The spicy oil is not spicy at all. So worries if you might see it on the cold peanut butter noodles. However, I find that the noodles were a little too cold & made them a little on the harder side. I had to let them sit for a little bit to warm up & it was a bit better. The sauce only had a slight peanut butter taste. I had the same dish at another one of their locations & it was much better. I would probably not order this from here again. Also their steamer was broken when we were there & we couldn't order any steamed dumplings. Despite all these things, I still enjoyed my experience & I recommend their fried dumplings.
If you like dumplings served 20 different ways this is the place to go. 4 of us tried the soup - pork, shrimp & scallop dumplings, soup - chicken & mushroom dumplings, pan fried - pork & Chinese cabbage dumplings, pan fried - pork $ chive dumplings All dishes were around $15. Fresh handmade dumplings cooked to order. Very tasty & came with chilli sauce, soya & vinegar sauce for dipping. Super filling. The restaurant is in the heart of Montreal Chinatown & is very busy & crowded but the service is quick & tables turn over fast. A definite must try for dumpling lovers.

Sammi & Soupe Dumplings was the perfect choice for a rainy day. The food was great & served quickly, offering just the comfort we needed. While the soup dumplings were on the thicker side, the pork & coriander filling was incredibly tasty. A solid spot for a satisfying meal.
