Delicious Freshly Made Dumplings and More!
My experience at this restaurant was fantastic, especially with their perfectly cooked dumplings that are made fresh to order 😋. I also enjoyed their wood ear salad, spicy beef tendon, cucumber salad, and the beef noodle soup with pickled veg, all of which were solid choices. The food quality was exceptional, and the overall dining experience was very positive.

Excellent Beef Noodle Soup and Dumplings!
My experience at this restaurant was a 5/5 spot for their beef noodle soup. I highly recommend not shortchanging yourself and ordering at least one order of the dumplings. My personal favorite is the shrimp/egg/chive dumpling.
Be prepared to wait if you visit during a busy hour, though the wait time was up to 10 minutes.

Great Value Dumplings, Service Lacking
My experience at this restaurant was centered around the incredible value for the giant orders of dumplings. The food itself was excellent, earning a perfect score. However, the service was a bit lacking towards the end of their shift, and the restaurant closed promptly at 8: 30 pm, which might be a consideration for some diners.

Authentic Food with a Few Hits and Misses
My experience at this restaurant was centered around the authentic food. I found the noodles, beef, and a variety of dumplings to be of very good quality, simple yet delicious. However, I wasn't too impressed with the fish dumplings, though I enjoyed all the others.
The food received a perfect score, while service and atmosphere were rated a 3 out of 5. The wait time was minimal, up to 10 minutes, and the price per person was between $30–50.

Authentic Dumplings and Noodle Soup
My experience at this restaurant was fantastic! It's a great hole in the wall place for dumplings and noodle soup. I was impressed that the food is made fresh, and you can even see the process in the kitchen through the glass window.
I will definitely be back again!

Delicious Dumplings & Soulful Soup!
My experience at this dumpling place on Irving St was wonderful. The prices are incredibly affordable for the quality and quantity of food offered. I ordered the beef noodle soup (non-spicy), and it was a truly soul-soothing and delicious dish with a dark, tender broth.
I also tried the Pork and Napa Cabbage dumpling soup, which was both light and filling, containing 12 dumplings. This spot is excellent for solo-dining, and the service was attentive and friendly. A heads-up for visitors: parking in the area can be quite difficult, so plan accordingly.

Amazing Chinese Food and Kind Service
My experience at this restaurant was absolutely amazing! I had the pork dumpling soup and the beef noodle soup (spicy), both of which were excellent. The portions were generous enough to share for three people.
Additionally, the people in the restaurant were very kind.

Decent Chinese with Quick Service
My experience at this restaurant was marked by super quick service. The food was decent, though I'm quite picky about Chinese cuisine. I tried the marinated beef, which had a great sauce, but I wasn't thrilled with the meat itself; it didn't appear fresh and was tougher than I prefer for that dish.
The dumplings (shrimp, chives, egg) could have been more flavorful, but dipping them in chili oil helped. The beef noodles were solid. Overall, a satisfactory meal with excellent service.

Fresh Dough, Long Wait
There are a lot of options for dumplings nowadays. I just don’t think the food here merits the long wait. When waiting, you have to wait out on the sidewalk and be present when your name is called.
Waiting out in the cold with young kids is probably not the best idea. We tried dumplings and noodles. The dough is freshly made and has nice texture.
For dumplings, I would strongly suggest ordering them plain, without the soup.
