Goo! Goo! Amazing dumplings! Love the fresh in house making of them so you definitely know it’s authentic.We go here wayyy more often than I’d liked to admit but can’t help it.. so yummy! And we live quite far but make the trip always knowing we’ll be leaving satisfied.Fair pricing. Quick service.Can be loud, crowded but I mean can you blame them… also very typical Asian restaurant vibes

The dishes are rich and taste good, worth experiencing. However, the meat filling of the xiaolongbao is a bit sour, as if it has been stored for a long time?

Although this is a nicer place, the food is not as good as the steeles and warden location.

Finally came around to trying this place on a saturday evening. The parking lot was absolutely stuffed and I had to circle at least 10 times before lucking out w/ a spot.The resto itself is big and fits a lot of customers. We were sat right next to the entrance (which was chilly at first because of the entrance opening and closing constantly, but once we started eating and sweating, the wind actually helped out a bit).The service is pretty no frills. You write your order on a paper and a server will just take it.The dumplings were good! I think I actually liked the pan fried/crispy dumplings over the boiled ones more (if I had to pick). They were juicier. This place also does an excellent beef pancake. I've been to so many places where the pancake is stale and the beef tough, but this place nailed it (perfect amount of hoisin sauce inside too).If I'm craving dumplings, I'll be back here for sure!P.S. The beef noodle soup from the menu picture is calling out to me. I might try that next time.

King pao chicken was so tasty with beautiful veg, mushroom, peanuts and sauce. Dumplings were also so good. Service was pleasant and very efficient for a busy Friday night!

Classic Chinese dumpling house that showcases its workers wrapping the freshly made dumplings in a corner stall of the restaurant. Tons of great options whether you want steamed (my preference), boiled or pan fried. The pan fried can get a little oily but the taste is solid. They don't skimp on fillings either. The soup noodles tend to be a little overcooked on multiple visits so I am guessing that is their target. Hot and sour soup is quite bountiful of ingredients so it really hit the spot. Pricing is decent - not expensive but not cheap either. Accepts cash (discount offered) or debit if you order over $20. Parking is annoyingly sparse due to sharing the space with loads other restaurants nearby. More parking is available on the rear and sides.

Staff are friendlyLots of people come here to eat here, I'm not sure why I personally didn't like the food. The rice tasted like slimey egg, didn't like the dumpling..The decorations on sealing of the restaurant looks funny,With some 300 smoke detectors like...

The food and environment were okay, but the waiter's eyes were not very good. My friend and I wanted to order and waited for a long time. After finally the waiter came, the first thing he asked us was, "Do you want to pay?" My friend and I had a look on our faces. Confused.

Been to many china dumpling houses and have to say this one is okay. Isn't quite at the top or at the bottom. Pictures as u can see didn't come up as beautiful as the menu. It was a bit overcooked, u see some almost brown crispy golden crust that pretty much ended up but burnt. For the price it's okay, would come back for another try and hopefully find it better. There are some bonuses for paying cash. In all it's a good place to go, try some china dumplings and it's quite filling.
