Very good dumplings & sesame balls ! The owner is super kind & friendly, she always has a big smile on her face. The studio Ghibli music is a nice addition to the atmosphere.
Such an underrated spot for Chinese in the city. You can taste how fresh & homemade everything is. Dumplings & everything on the menu is 10/10. & the owners are very lovely!
Food was very good & filling. We had hot & sour soup, dumplings, buns, kimchi & the fried bean paste sesame balls. Service was good & staff is very nice & attentive. The new owner opened in September 2024. The portions were big & the price was very affordable.
Super nice & friendly staff. Amazing food. Had a hot & sour soup, kimchi, many different types of dumplings & buns. Everything was great! Will come eat here again & order on Uber too!
The food is amazing. The portions are really good size. We got the pork green onion dumplings, bbq pork, a miso & hot sour soup. Everything was great. We got served by a sweet lady & the atmosphere is calm with peaceful piano music playing on the background. I would come here again.
Ordered the steamed chicken mushroom dumplings, & they were amazing! They came out hot & fresh. The stuffing was more than most places I've been to. They give you 15, but I was full by the time I had 10. The staff was super nice, polite & we were greeted with a smile everytime they brought something to our table. I will definitely be going back. This may be my new dumpling spot. So glad they are here in NDG.
My friend & I tried this place for the first time yesterday, & we loved our experience! The restaurant is small but well decorated, with some Chinese art on the wall & nice, chill music in the background. We got there one hour before closing time & were still given an amazing service by the owner, who is the most lovely lady. The food itself is delicious, & you can tell it is made with love. I do not understand the bad reviews at all, I would definitely recommend!
