They seemed a little unprepared for us as this restaurant seems to mostly cater to takeout and delivery orders. There were a a couple rows of tables and booths for dine-in. They pivoted quickly and graciously accommodated our large group. We were the only ones dining in and the service was very attentive. They had the usual dim sum staples (har gar, siu mai, shrimp dumplings, soup dumplings, bbq pork buns), which is what we were looking for. Nothing amazing but served the purpose of filling us up. It's mostly metered parking or paid lots in the area.

I was in Bloor West Village looking for a late lunch spot. There are a ton of options in the area…read more A lot have menus displayed on windows and outside on sandwich boards. Bao Bao advertised their daily specials which is a rounded up $12. On Saturday this was a giant cha siu bao, choice of dim sum, and scallion pancake. Not bad for dim sum at around $4 a plate. Sure you can probably find cheaper in Chinatown or on the east end but even then those are probably specials themselves. The inside of the store shares space with a Kung Fu Tea. They are owned by the same people so you'll see the employees working on both sides. There's a counter on the left side past a few tables where I put in my order. They actually had another sign at this counter with other daily specials - it seems that these are available every day. One of the ones that looked good was a Roast Duck on Rice for $12 but I went with the dim sum. I'm not going to lie it looked a tad sketchy in the case there. They were in there steamer baskets but everything looked a little limp. I was able to choose from different dim sums like sticky rice, siu mai, and crystal shrimp dumplings. The siu mai looked like the best choice so I went with that. I was instructed to have a seat at any table and that they would bring my order out to me. Two mugs of jasmine tea followed as well as some napkins, disposable chopsticks, soy sauce, and hot sauce on a paper plate. The food came in a Styrofoam box. The scallion pancake was wrapped in foil to keep it warm. Because the pancake was enclosed in foil it looked like it was lacking in crispiness. It still held a lot of its flakiness and I think they may have either grilled or baked it at some point because there were some char marks that gave it a really welcome smoky flavour! Despite the siu mai not looking super fancy or anything, they tasted good! A tab of the hot sauce was nice in it too. The cha siu bao was also decent too. It was a big one - I'd say at least double the size of your average ones. The outside looked more like a giant soup dumpling so I actually wasn't entirely sure what it was until I got down into it. The bun texture was decent and the inside was good too. There as no chewy or gristle type pieces in the bun. The employees were pretty nice and even came to check in on me at one point, asking if I needed a refill on the tea. They accept a wide variety of payment options. There isn't any discount if you pay in cash just as an FYI.

It wasn't too busy for dinnertime, which made the experience even more enjoyable. The buffet offered a wide variety of options, and everything was well presented. The dessert section was definitely the highlight for me and the best part of the meal. That said, I do feel the price was a bit high for a buffet-style restaurant. Overall, it was a great experience, just slightly overpriced for what it offers.

This is a small hand-pulled noodle restaurant by Jane station on the north side of Bloor…read more Food (4/5) - the menu has a decent selection of noodle soups, dishes and appetizers/sides. Had the Beef Brisket Noodle Soup and it was pretty good. Noodles were good firmness and freshness. Broth was solid and brisket was cooked well with not too much fat. Service (3.75/5) - order and delivery to table was fairly quick. Server was a bit aloof but not rude or anything. Atmosphere (3/5) - it's a small place and pretty basic layout and tables. Washroom is right by tables and there was a bit of an odour of cleaning products every so often. Overall (3.5/5) - it's not a bad place for hand-pulled. might be worth another visit.

The broth…read morewas a little bit gamey which threw me off but I'm glad I added some of their chili oil to alter the strong tastes. The chili oil is not very spicy at all. The brisket was big, chunky, soft and flavorful! I really liked how their broth was piping hot even though it was delivered so good job on that! I did wish there was more veggies (there were only a few slices of radish - needed for their strong broth). Overall very happy with this place and would love to go back and try their other dishes. Worth the price and satisfied my noodle cravings imo!

The service was attentive and quick, making the entire dining experience comfortable and enjoyable. Now, onto the food: every dish we tried was absolutely delicious! We started with the refreshing cucumber salad, which had the perfect balance of tangy and savory flavors. The cold tofu was equally impressive, bursting with umami and spice. For the main dish, I had a fragrant, hearty noodle soup with beef, packed with rich flavors and perfectly cooked noodles. The dumplings were soft, juicy, and filled with the perfect amount of flavor, and the sauces were delightful! Overall, the ambiance was cozy and modern, perfect for a casual meal with friends. I highly recommend Tumi Dumpling House for anyone looking for authentic, flavorful Chinese dishes. Whether you're a local or just visiting, it's definitely worth the stop! I'll be back for sure.

The dumplings were served fresh and piping hot, which made the experience even better. Gluten-free dough is notoriously difficult to work with, so I really appreciate the effort and care that clearly goes into making these. They've done a great job. The service was also very friendly. I met Ted, who took the time to tell me more about the restaurant, which made the visit feel welcoming and personal. I'll definitely be returning to try more of the dumplings -- even the non-gluten-free options because they're just that delicious. I'm excited to see how the menu evolves. I'd love to see a dumpling dish added to the lunch specials and perhaps more filling variations for the gluten-free dumplings. Next time, I'm trying them pan-fried!

I wish it was there when I lived arount the corner. I kind of had low expectations since it's dim sum for fast food, thinking it might just be factory mass produce but when you taste it, there is a difference. Seems like it's house made as the texture of the siu mai and wonton is different than the mass produce or frozen ones. Price is also quite affordable too. Definitely a great rotation in the food court.

The owners are super friendly, speak Cantonese and English, and are excited to start expanding their offerings to include breakfast options. 5 stars for service. Fast and friendly. Prices are a bit steep for 1. dim sum and 2. the Grange, which is known for affordable options, but it's justified since it's an offering that isn't readily available in the neighbourhood. 4pc ha gow priced at $6.99 +tax. I got the ha gow and tried their chicken dumplings. The ha gow isn't the best flavour that I've tried, but it's not bad (4 stars for flavour). Chicken dumpling is good, but a little spicy. They also offer regular siu mai and beef siu mai. Purchase and take to go or eat in the food court.
