    Sesame seed ball desert! GF but absolutely glutenous, filled with molten chocolate ... it was HOT! Eat it slowly
    Panno J.

    My husband had a reunion dinner here. We were a group of 9 people, including a 3 month baby. The food: Felt like a farm to table restaurant... and it probably was one. High quality ingredients, well cooked and well presented dishes. Everyone loved whatever they ordered. Extremely diet friendly; GF, Vegan, vegetarian.... We ordered the below and loved each item Golden Squid, absolutely delicious GF Spring Rolls, OC Nasi Lemak, this was great, but a bit on the dry side I.e. Not a saucy curry dish. I would order something else with two dry appetizers Sesame seed ball desert is a must try! The Ambience: This is a very cozy and hip spot. Also the staff was very accommodating! We were a big party with a baby and had a lovely experience. My advice, make reservations in advance, like we did.

    Spring rolls and pot stickers

    Tasty Asian fusion in Saskatoon! They were quite busy when we arrived on Thursday evening, however only a few minutes to get a table for 3. Tried the ribs and pad Thai as a shared entree, with spring rolls and pot stickers as shared apps. Some nice glasses of wine were welcome additions to the meal and water glasses refilled frequently. Good service all around! Found the ribs just a bit well done for my liking, but tasty sauce. Pad Thai was good and not overly spicy. Spring rolls and pot stickers were both good apps. Think we preferred the pot stickers more. The chocolate ice cream with a sesame-covered fried pastry filled with warm chocolate was very nice end to the meal - not over sweet, and didn't leave us overfull. Not overly noisy despite being busy.

    Ginger shiitake mushrooms

    Walked in as a party of one and was amazed at how many plant-based options there were. Had the sweet potato potstickers followed by the ginger shiitake mushrooms (think deep-fried ginger beef style). This meal was by far the best I've ever had. Amazing variety, wonderful ambiance, and fantastic attentive staff. Will make a point to come back during each subsequent visit to Saskatoon. Toronto has NOTHING on this place. Love love love.

    If you're looking to take someone to a trendy spot with an attractive interior, want Asian food that isn't too adventurous, and you aren't caught up on price, this is a good place to choose. It's hard to rank this place as good or bad food wise. We've been here three times trying to decide how we felt about it, and realized it will really come down to individual preferences. SERVICE The service was the best part of eating here. Staff is attentive, well trained, very polite, and seem sincerely interested in making sure we were happy. FOOD Generally not to our personal tastes, but we can't argue with the fact that this is a very popular spot for a lot of people. The flavors tend to be more gentle, a little too gentle for us sometimes. Rice and noodle dishes are light on toppings but provide lots of rice and noodles. We also feel it caters to Western taste buds, losing some of the uniqueness of Chinese cuisine. To be fair, this might be an excellent compromise for a lot of people who enjoy ethnic foods with local influences. We love their Vietnamese spring rolls: These were amazing. They were a bit more slender then we are accustomed to, but the filling was richly flavourful. The wrapping was perfectly crunchy and chewy at the same time, with dark caramelized parts that just sang in our mouths. This was the best part of our meal. SINGAPORE NOODLES: One of us liked this dish more than the other. This came with a thin noodle cooked enough to have some firmness, fried with spices, edging towards being dry. The flavours were quite nice, though again leaning more towards the delicate side. PRICE The cost of the genmaicha tea really surprised us. The bill for two people having lunch with no alcohol came out to $47 with tip. It was a little higher than we expected, and would be a deterrent for us personally, but if that's not a concern for you, that give this place a try and see if it pleases your tastebuds! AMBIANCE This restaurant has a contemporary stylish interior, a very familiar feel for new restaurants started by young entrepreneurs. As such it attracts young professionals, hipsters and a young-at-heart older crowd. It's very clean and simple, it feels quite nice. The tables are spaced enough apart that you can have a private conversation and the overall sound level is reasonable, so you don't have to lean in to hear or yell at each other.

    Seasonal vegetables, ginger shiitake (instead of beef) and pork vermicelli.
    Racdor F.

    Great service, friendly and funny staff. The ginger shiitake is a vegetarians dream (we came with an actual vegetarian who liked it). As a meat eater I still enjoyed it (which is very surprising)! Good location being in the up and coming 20th street area. Nice decor and overall a lovely dinner. We will come again!

    not recommended for baby under 2. They do not have a highchair. Service is nice. Good for couple or friends.However, it is the flavor for native people, not for real asian guys. The idea is great, it is not what we truely want though.

    Vegan Vietnamese Rice Noodle Soup with jicama broth, Vietnamese rice noodles, fried tofu and vegetables
    Daylen S.

    I went out for lunch on a Thursday at 11:30 am with a group of 4 others. I called and made a reservation, but it wasn't needed at that time. However, the restaurant began getting quite busy at noon. All of us ordered different items and we were all impressed. I had the Vegan Vietnamese Rice Noodle Soup. It contained jicama broth, Vietnamese rice noodles, fried tofu, mushrooms, baby bok choy, carrot, daikon, shallots, spices, and a wonton-like fried dough. The flavours of the spices with the jicama broth were delicious. I was also happy to find fried tofu in the soup! Our server was super nice and knowledgeable about the menu. I will definitely be coming back on my next trip to Saskatoon!

    Jin Jin's was one of the first hidden gem place I've been to in Saskatoon! Seven years ago, my…read morefriend raaaaved about this small and quaint northern style Chinese restaurant ran by a lovely Chinese couple but spoke minimal English. I was quite excited as I was able to practice my Mandarin and try some authentic cuisine! I had a short but wonderful chat with the owner at that time and the dumplings were incredible I always longed to go back to try them again but I was told they had closed and moved back to China due to old age. Fast forward seven years later, I realized they're still open! (Or opened again)?? I never thought much about them since I heard about the closing so I never googled so imagine my surprise when Mr C and I walked by their huge poster above the building! I was super stoked to know they are still running their quaint restaurant and got an even wider acknowledgement for their hard work and amazing food Of course, Mr C and I had to stop by to try some of their dumplings again! it's one of the few times that I actually order meat dumplings And just as I remembered, it was perfect. They flipped it upside down when serving so the crispy part is upwards and just makes me drooool these are perfect bite size servings and no additional sauce required! As mentioned, it's still the same couple running the restaurant. The wife does serving, ordering and cashier work while the husband does the cooking in the backz it was absolutely cute seeing their teamwork and also #couplegoals! Okay back to food. I also wanted to try another dish besides dumplings so I got the Noodles with Tianjin Style Sauce. Unfortunately neither Mr C or myself enjoyed it as much but it wasn't bad! I did find the sauce a bit too salty so I had to thoroughly mix it with the noodles and made sure every bite of wood ear 木耳 and eggs had to have some noodles to balance out the flavours. I probably won't order this one again but for sure will try their other dishes Ps. The entrance is actually further to the right (not below the poster) after all, it's a hidden gem so you really gotta look for it!

    BEST DUMPLINGS!!!!! Honestly I was TERRIFIED to go into this place. There was no one but the owner…read morethere. The chalkboard menu in cantonese. But they had an English menu, and I had done some "inter gram research" prior. I showed the owner a few snaps of what I wanted. These were the most delish dumplings ever!!!! And $9 for 20? I took some home to Vancouver with me and I can't wait to get them! Honestly this place is a true gem in Saskatoon! I'll be back!
