    Came here based off reviews and was so disappointed...burnt dumplings on all three orders I placed to go. These burnt were not just by looks it also tasted burnt and it wasn't even busy. Taste was bland my son loves dumplings and didn't even finish his first bite. Just sorry I didn't see the dumplings until I got home.

    We went for lunch yesterday and really enjoyed it. The taste, texture, presentation were all on point. The price point is a little higher then let’s say China town but it’s expected for the area and the quality was really good. The staff was friendly and helpful. The staff was masked and the restroom was super clean. They also have bubble teas and other specialty drinks. Definitely will try again.

    Really excellent dumplings and buns. Food is high quality and service is quick. Perfect to take as a to-go snack to prospect park. Will definitely be back to try their dry aged beef dumplings.

    I love this spot. If I could do half stars, it would be 4.7. Had to knock off a few points charging $3 for a bottle of water. Tried the pork bao bun which was also good. Not the best, not the worst. Pro tip- mix soy sauce & hot sauce = magic

    Unwelcoming experience going in, waited for over 30 minutes in person for some dumplings and a soup, and my dumplings were burnt and inedible. Ended up throwing it away, a waste of money and the soup was super oily with weird chunks in my soup. Not a pleasant experience, definitely tasted like food you would eat and like super drunk lol.

    I got the juicy pork dumplings and the pork bao bun. The dumplings were fantastic and so juicy. And the right amount of crisp on the bottom. The order came with 6 and cost $7. Fair price to me. The Bao pork bun was good, but hard/messy to eat and even tho the sauce that came on it was yummy, they put way to much on and over powered the other flavors including the pork itself. But all in all was soo good. My Boyfriend got the pork sweet chili ribs and he was obsessed!!

    Very good home made dumplings. Only thing was it was expensive for the amount of dumplings you get. The price won’t stop me from coming back though!

    The veggie dumplings are legit the best I’ve ever had. I also really like their beef dumplings which are really hard to find. I was a little disappointed in their veggie lo mein, but I still love this place! I usually grab a beer around the corner, wait for takeout, and eat in the park!

    Not that great , I would be fair. The noodles was bland and the dumplings were salty. I won't be ordering again . They need to raise their spice level and make it more tasty

    Best dumplings 🥟 made fresh look at the picture OR Just walk in and see for yourselves!! the opening ceremony of the new spot was magical 🐉🔥✨

  • 4/5 Max C. 3 months ago on Google • 34 reviews New
    Ribs, spicy noodles and pork belly bao were great. The veggie noodles, spring rolls and juicy pork dumplings were bad, ok and decent - respectively. Attentive, wooden service and a room with a really wet wooden floor in dire need of an entryway rug, especially on rainy days.

    Maybe the best dumplings I’ve ever had!! The dry aged beef was beyond delicious! The pork noodles and pork dumplings are great as well. No frills, but who needs frills when the food is this good.

    I ordered the vegetable dumplings. Very unique way of making them. I'm not an expert on dumplings. Just been reading them at random spots for a couple of decades but these were very fresh tasting and definitely were homemade ones. If you are in the area yet it out. If you looking for cookie cutter dumplings then stay away.

    I ate the the sweet chili sauce glazed ribs with rice and the cucumber salad. Both were tasty, though the cucumber salad stood out more, especially if we consider items within their own categories. The portions were on the smaller side, but I left full despite having skipped breakfast and lunch. Additionally, I would highly recommend the honey sour plum beverage. The staff was hesitant and explained that it was really rather sour and was I sure I’d like to order it. They decided it was best to provide me a sample just to be sure, which I accepted. The drink is a touch sour, plenty refreshing, and not so sweet as to coat the teeth with sugar, so overall I was happy to have tried the sour plum drink.

    Delectable dim sums and spring rolls. And that too for vegetarians. Exceptional service and ambience as well. Don’t miss out on this if you’re in/ close to Prospect Park.

  • 3/5 Chris Q. 2 years ago on Google
    Good quality shrimp dumplings, the price point is probably a little higher than what you get compared to other places, and I felt like the crust on the dumplings was not necessary and took away from the quality of the wrapper themselves. Overall, a nice part of the neighbourhood

    Great location off the Prospect Park SW, ideal for a quick pre or post Nitehawk movie perhaps for the budget conscious. Realized after it’s kind of pricey for what you get, 16 oz iced bubble tea and 5 pork dumplings was about $15 with tax. Dumplings were extremely tasty, crispy and doughy just how I like it. Was told it would take 10-15 min but only waited under 5. Worth checking out.
