High taxes. For some unknown reason the sales tax here is 19.4%.No one at the restaurant could explain why. Usually sales tax in New Orleans is about 10%

This is the type of place you stumble upon out of happen stance and are so pleasantly surprised by. We walked in on a pretty slow Monday night, and the staff was immediately so welcoming and sweet. We were sat and served right away and treated with patience with our large order (complicated by a seafood allergy too!). Our server was attentive to us and to details but not at all overbearing and even recommended a dessert for us to try from their bakery side of the businessOur group had decided our favorites were the dragon shrimp dumplings, onion beef triangle dumplings, the Szechuan pork dumpling soup and the soup dumplings, however, none of us had anything we didn’t think was delicious, fresh and comforting, and believe me we ordered plenty! They deserve to be busy all day everyday for the quality of food they serve! We will definitely be revisiting this location when we come back to visit NOLA again!Dietary restrictions: We had a member who is highly allergic to seafood and they did wonderfully to accommodate her allergy!

I am not usually one to leave reviews at all, let alone a poor one, but I feel compelled to share my experience ordering take out.I placed my usual order of the fried pork dumplings at 6:55 and arrived at 7:10, the pickup time designated online. The server let me know it would be out in a few minutes, so I was excited thinking it would be fresh and hot.I ended up waiting until 7:45 to receive my food and then found that half of my dumpling rolls were undercooked, and the other half were soggy.The small team seems to struggle balancing dine in, take out, and delivery orders at the same time, even when the restaurant is not busy. Though I would dine in again in the future, I will not be ordering take out or recommending that others do so.

Maybe it was an off day but the service was atrocious last Sunday when we went. It took an hour and a half for us to get our food. Other tables were just leaving. I want to give them another chance, but this was discouraging.

Legitimately some of the best I’ve ever had. And the girl waiting on us (I didn’t get her name, so sorry!!) was so sweet. I want this restaurant to be open and thriving forever.
