    Service is a little slow.... take away companies such as Uber have taken over the in store dining experience. This place does not have much seating arrangements and is probably best if your a lover of dumplings - take away style. Pork dumpling for the win!! They’re yum.

    The employees of I Love Dumplings are normally good , but today seems like they are all over the place (maybe new staff?). When I came to get my order on the designated pick-up time, the lady seemed unaware of my order. I had to wait like an extra 15 minutes, which was okay, they did seem frantic. It was just a bit annoying that the staff didn't seem to care, no apologies or thank yous at all, no explanation, just gave my order and basically sent me on my way. Then, when I got home, they got my order wrong. I ordered pan-fried, not steamed pork dumplings, which was super annoying. The sichuan sauce I got was also way off from the usual standard, no red peppers at all. Quite disappointing experience.

    A hidden gem. Best dumplings in the north for me, each dumpling always on point. The rest doesn't miss either, spring rolls are similarly bang on.

    Dangerously undercooked XiaoLongbao, spring rolls taste like they have been frozen for 6 months, fried rice has no flavor. Unfortunately it was my partner who spotted it and i had already eaten two of mine so it looks like i’m be in for a long night. We used to order from this place years ago and it was the best around by far, disappointing how far the standard of quality has fallen. Won’t be ordering again and highly recommend no one else does too despite the convenience of it being local

    The covers of the dumplings are too thick I find. The drinks deal is nice. The prawn dumplings are value for money. Nice to get 4 sachets of soy sauce. The pork dumplings were the pick of the lot. The steamed buns were steaming when they arrived. Yum Yum.

    Takeaway only. I was craving hot wok tossed noodles and that is what I got. Beautiful and fresh, large portion. Cheap and cheerful and nice quality I thought.

    Noddle is tasty, and vegetable dumplings are very good, even better than the shrimp and chicken dumplings.The place is not very suitable for eating in as the seats are hard and squeezy.

    Very good value for money dumplings, shop front has been set up to cater for takeaway and food delivery services. Pork dumplings and custard buns were amazing

    Really nice pork dumplings. 15 pieces for $11 however they also charged $1 for chilli oil which is usually free in dumpling restaurants. Small actually tiny restaurant seats 12 people. Looks purposeful built for Uber eats and food delivery service.

    Great dumplings and good price, but not a great place for dining in. I recommend getting yourself some dumplings and sitting in the community garden!

    I think I just died and went to heaven! how have I never tried I Love Dumplings before?? Their pan fried pork dumplings are that good, I didn’t even open the chili sauce sachet.. and either the uber over steamed them super well, otherwise they’re almost soup dumpling-like! (with a nice chewy and crispy outer 🤤) they are so moreish.. safe to say they’re now gone 💔

    Very rude staff. Online order system didn't produce an email confirmation or a text confirmation, so I was made to feel stupid for not taking a screenshot of the order on my browser after the browser lost the page. I'm sorry, but it's not the customers responsibility for a poor online system. Do better.

    Worst experience ever the calamari is too salty and the dumpling seems like have some funny shape on the skin .

    A nice little joint for take- away dumplings. The Singapore noodles weren't so great, they were bland.
