Visited just to try the dumplings, as the name was encouraging.
Unfortunately I left disappointed. We got the pork and cabbage fried dumplings, 12 for $15.90, and they lacked flavour and also had several grisly chunks that I had to spit out. I like how you can choose and fill your own dips: soy, dumpling vinegar and chilli oil.

My Fiance and I both ordered dumpling soups. He had the Laksa which tasted very traditional and full of flavour, while I had the Tom Yum with chicken and prawn dumplings. The dumplings were delicious, though the Tom Yum was very sweet, unlike any I have tried before. Although it tasted nice, it wasn't what I expected and became almost sickly sweet by the end of it. The staff were great, though the venue itself was very clinical. No colour or artwork, and no music, to the point you felt you had to whisper. Still worth trying for sure.
Amazing tasting food with stock standard service - great for lovers of dumplings and Asian food
I’m always torn with reviews for places like this. On one hand, the food is absolutely delicious - combining some of the best dumplings I’ve had with other great/intense flavours. But on the other hand, the service was impersonal and basic... but at the same time I didn’t come here expecting to be treated like it’s fine dining
So what do you do?
If you want great tasting food served at pace in an environment that facilitates chatter - this place is a must! Beautiful, beautiful food
But if you want high class service, maybe consider somewhere else
Either way, I’ll be back

We had the Mongolian Beef, Chicken with Peanut and Chilli, Chicken and Prawn Wonton Soup and Pork Dumplings. All for under $60. Everything was tasty and fresh. Too much to eat, had to take home the rest. Enjoyed every dish.
New Asian resto in Chinatown. Reasonable price for homecooked meal. Tasty Hainan chicken. Thai Fried chicken is much better if not drenched with sweet chili sauce. Crispy pancake shallots. The FOH is really accommodating with the customers, I hope that house water is offered when they bring the food.
Fast and friendly service with good food and good serves. Good for a quick lunchtime meal. The dumplings, as hoped for, were plump and juicy and tasted great. You MUST try a Chinese hamburger - this was delicious! The mapo tofu also had a good hit of mouth numbing spice.
Love it! Stir-fried shredded pork rice taste AMAZING 😍😍, lots of pork and veggies in it! Friendly staff and comfortable & clean environment. Sooo good! Definitely gonna come back and try something else!
I’ve tried lots of new dishes in this restaurant after my first visit, and you guys have to try their handmade dumplings 🥟! ! 😍😍😍

Tasting is above average, but the food quality made me worried, I went to there at the very 1st opening day, as you can see, this disgusting pork, another customer return her meal at the same time.
Although the owner was very kind to produce us a serve of fried spring onion pancake for free as apologise, it’s still… u know it:)
Hope it could getting better in future.
Also, it’s nearly no air conditioning at the dinning room, and the cooking smoke is inside room, not sure whether they have a business-level range hood or not lol.
