Read the positive reviews and visited for dinner. Came away underwhelmed. Nothing particularly bad,…read morebut nothing great either. Everything we ordered was flat-line on taste and flavor. Despite the forbidding, poorly kept exterior and stair landing, the interior dining area was clean. Food consisted of Vegetarian Spring Rolls (two absolutely tiny fried rolls with a flavorless yellow dipping sauce), Cumin Beef (perhaps the star of the show, relatively tender, with specks of dried chili - not at all spicy), Sweet and Spicy Eggplant (again, okay but lacked spiciness/heat and flavor), and rice, all washed down with marginally cold Tsing Tao beer. Portions were generous, service was hurried/at rapid pace for some reason, but lacked follow-up once the dishes arrived! The meal for two set us back CAD 58+ with hefty taxes and generous tips. Not a bad place by any means, but what we had was nothing spectacular!

I'm not sure if we would make a special trip back as we have had better dumplings.

The dim sum here is top-notch, and the highlight of the meal was definitely the peanut sauce dim sum and the cold peanut noodles. I've never had anything like them--they were so delicious, refreshing, and savory. I would come back a thousand times just for those! The tea was also a great deal--only $3.50 Canadian for a huge pot, which was perfect for sharing. It was a cold day, so the warm tea paired really well with the cold noodles. Overall, this spot is incredibly affordable and serves amazing food. I would absolutely return next time I'm in town!

All of the portions were large to boot. We split an order of two dumplings. One pork with scallion and the other chicken with mushrooms. Both were good, nice and brothy inside.

Since it was still freezing outside, I decided to have DoorDash deliver it to my room. The food arrived piping hot and still steaming, which felt pretty impressive considering it was about -120°F outside and was cold enough that even pure ethanol was turning into a slushie. :-) I ordered the soup dumplings, peanut butter noodles, peanut butter wontons, and wonton soup. Everything was delicious and, unlike a lot of Chinese takeout, it wasn't overloaded with MSG. The dishes had real flavor, and I was pleasantly surprised by how great everything tasted. Overall, I was very pleased with the meal and would definitely come back the next time I'm in town.

Montreal's Chinatown is quite small, about four blocks square but with a surprising number of…read moredining options. Most YouTube vloggers are so preoccupied with smoked meat, bagels, and poutine that they don't pay much attention to this area. The few who do point to this busy dim sum spot on the main pedestrian drag, Rue de la Gauchetiere. Some foodie with marketing savvy must have come up with its nickname, "The Din Tai Fung of Montreal". That's because this spot focuses on soup dumplings (xiao long bao), the world famous offering of Din Tai Fung. The reality is that this restaurant has no connection with Din Tai Fung, but that's not to say their dumplings are not good. Jamie W and I got lured due to the mythic connection and arrived right at 11AM when they open. We secured a booth, and sure enough, it took just ten minutes for them to reach capacity and start a queue. Naturally we ordered the 'classique' xiao long bao, the C$13.99 Juicy Pork & Chive Soup Dumplings (Photo 10). Ten came with the order in a bamboo steamer, and they didn't disappoint as the soup gushed out with little effort. The pork and chive filling had a satisfying meaty flavor and good consistency. We also went with the C$7.99 Hot and Sour Cucumbers which provided a nice veggie contrast with their spicy snap (Photo 8). More out of curiosity, we also ordered the C$7.99 Peanut Butter Wontons. They consisted of a half dozen plump ones bathed in a rather luxuriant pool of sweet-spicy peanut butter sauce (Photo 9). It all came together surprisingly well for what I perceived as a tourist novelty dish, so much so we dipped the last of our soup dumplings in the remaining sauce. The ultra efficient staff worked like clockwork here, so we were in and out pretty quickly.

It was pretty packed, so we assumed the food would be good. It wasn't. Most of the food we tried made me question whether the food was safe to eat. There was a common theme: the food tasted stale and old, and everything we ordered came out in record time, which meant nothing was fresh. It gave us no time to enjoy our food -- McDonald's takes more time to prepare a meal. We ordered the pork, wontons, dumplings in peanut sauce, and duck. The duck was the biggest disappointment, both in terms of taste and cost-to-portion ratio. It was literally four small pieces of old, chewy duck that instantly put my stomach in shambles, and we paid over $20 CAD. All in all, our meal was $65 CAD, and we left so unhappy and feeling gross about what we had. We love Chinese food in hole-in-the-wall eateries and eat pretty much everything, but this restaurant just missed the mark.
