Got Shrimp Pork Chive dumplings soup. The dumplings tastes amazing. Got frozen dumplings as well. The shop is small but cute. Staff was very friendly and service was quick.Will definitely go back when I'm in the area

Pork, chive and shrimp.
Ada L.

The Daily Dumpling Wonton Co is located near Ossington and College. The casual concept eatery specializes in a variety of dumplings that are served either in a broth or in peanut sauce. They have a variety of dumplings from shanghai style dumplings to vegan dumplings.You can either dine in or take out. The interior of the space is light and minimalist. There are bar seats either at a big communal table or along the side of the wall. I dropped by The Daily Dumpling Wonton Co on a Sunday around lunchtime. The place was not busy and I opted to try the pork, chive, and shrimp dumplings in a soup broth ($10.75 +tax). I placed my order at the counter and waited 5-10 min for my order to arrive. I believe there were 10 dumplings per order. I dug in right away after my food arrived and you could tell that the dumplings were handmade; I also enjoyed the thin wrappers. My only complaint was that the shrimp in the dumpling was so finely chopped that I almost felt like there was no shrimp at all. I also took advantage of the hot chili oil condiment found on the tables but I found that it wasn't spicy enough for my tastes. The broth that the dumplings came in had MSG which was a letdown as I was thirsty afterwards. Overall, the price for dumplings is a bit more on the pricey side but if you're in the mood for some dumplings around the area, this will satisfy your cravings.

The Daily Dumpling started out of a commercial kitchen and recently took over this space, where you can enjoy hot wontons right out the pot instead of waiting for your uber driver or making it yourself from a frozen package. It's a nice open design with minimalist decor, and lots of hooks along the wall for your coats. We tried their signature shanghai wonton and it was quite tasty. Nice flavorful soup, and the wontons had a good amount of filling. Prices start at $10 for 10 pieces so it's definitely on the higher side compared to other dumpling places, but if you're in the area and looking for wontons this place has you covered.

I got to go to a yelp event here and try a bunch of their wontons. Wow we're they good!!! They have this yummy peanut sauce they can out on them but even on their own they are lovey. I tried the shrimp, the beef, the chicken and the classic Shanghai and they were all wonderful!! The noodles weren't for me. When the dumplings are this good I feel like they don't need anything else on the menu. The dough was just so tender and fresh and the ingredients inside were so flavourful and just taste like they were made with love

The menu is simple and easy to choose. They have choices for you to choose the dumping type and sauce. Cute place. The service speed was a bit slow and the taste was nothing special especially given the price. Charge $10 for a bowl of 7-10 wontons. Quite pricey. They didn't taste better than frozen ones.

Second ingredient is pork, yet this was the dominate flavour in these dumplings.

A review of THE DAILY DUMPLING WONTON CO. (STORE BOUGHT FROZEN DUMPLINGS) purchasing the frozen dumplings for the first time, I decided to try the pork, shrimp & shiitake mushroom as the first taste test. I was pleased with the result as the flavour and ingredients were delivered as advertised in the name of the product. Returning with excitement to try the lobster flavour, I was extremely disappointed due to the following: 1. Entitled 'LOBSTER' suggests that it is the flavour and main ingredient within. While it may be listed as the first one, pork is next in line and completely overshadows the lobster both in quantity and thus flavour! I was anticipating a seafood only dumpling and this product/company DID NOT DELIVER! Why would there be pork in a lobster dumpling? To cut costs, deceive the public and falsely advertise. 2. The price difference from the lobster vs. The other flavours is a $4 jump $16.99 vs. $12.99. I understand if lobster is to be the feature ingredient then a price adjustment is only natural, however there was only a mere morsel of lobster within each dumpling (if that). DISGRACEFUL! I don't mind paying a higher price for lobster.... only this was BARELY LOBSTER and certainly not worth it!!  With this despicable false advertising & disappointing result, I will not be purchasing this product again If anyone wishes for seafood dumplings they're better off making them at home.

I was lucky enough to attend the yelp event here - though I'm not the biggest fan of dumplings/wontons ... this place was amazing! To start off the atmosphere was small but, modern and cozy at the same time (it that makes sense). The owners were so nice and shout out to one of the owners for making all the dumplings all night long!! For the dumplings/wontons, they were delicious! Very soft, and tastes homemade (just like mama would!) Aside from that, they did have lots of dumpling options to choose from. I would definitely come back, when craving dumplings!

Vegan Dumplings
Mitchell L.

Simple, fast and surprisingly delicious. I tried the beef celery and vegan dumplings and it was excellent with the peanut sauce. The dumplings are fresh and you can see the open kitchen where they make and cook them. They cost around $10 for 10 dumplings which seems reasonable to me and they're also on Ubereats. Can't go wrong with Daily Dumpling!

I want so badly to say that these are my favourite dumplings in the city, but I won't. I love dumplings as a whole to the extent that picking a single place as having the best ones seems impossible. They're all, for the most part, good. But. These are exceptionally good. These punch way above their weight. Beautiful, consistent, filling, delicious, fresh, comforting - all the things a dumpling can be, these are. I usually get the vegan option. It's surprisingly complex. The mushroom is springy, the pine nuts are fatty, and the spinach is fresh. Then of course you have the wrapper, which is thin, relatively speaking, but thick enough to leave you satisfied. I also really enjoy the vegan broth, which is seaweed based and super light. The place itself is clean and minimalist. One communal table with seating running along the walls, a window into the kitchen where you can watch old ladies expertly assemble these delicacies during the day, and a cash register. It's actually impressively designed. The owners are young people with a great idea, product and vision. I wish them all the best with their restaurant - they can certainly count on me coming back often!

Shrimp, pork, and shiitake wontons with peanut sauce
Clara Y.

Such a cute little spot for some really amazing wontons!! Came here on a Tuesday evening for dinner and was surprised at the variety of wontons they had. The menu is super simple, either on the wall or on the table infront of the register (this variation provides more details on what exact ingredients are in each dish). I went with the shrimp, pork, and shiitake with peanut sauce and my boyfriend chose the Shanghai classic in the soup noodle. We also ordered a side of tsong noodles to share. The place is easy because it's very much food court style and quick Chinese meal restaurants. You order, find a place to sit, grab your own water up front and your chopsticks. They'll bring you your food when it's ready! I love how you get to choose how you want your wontons (either in soup, peanut sauce, or a ginger soy sauce). So if you're feeling more dry wontons or a nice hearty bowl of soup, they have you covered! The wontons were so flavourful from the ingredients, it wasn't too much of any ingredient in each I think the combination was done really well. I loved how the shrimp pork and shiitake wontons had a nice fresh shrimp taste, with a slight hint of pork and I really tasted the shiitake near the end. Peanut sauce was a 10/10, but I might be slightly biased since I always like peanut sauce if I have a choice. My boyfriend's classic Shanghai wontons were really good as well, the mustard greens were such a good balance with the pork and the soup wasn't too salty. The noodles were a good sized portion since you get 10 wontons - it was strong in soy sauce flavour but wasn't too salty, just very flavourful and paired well with the soup wontons since they were more plain. LOVE the fact that they also sell frozen wontons for you to take home for future meals too! 10/10 recommend you trying this out, it'll definitely be on my favs list moving forward.

They mixed our wonton with others. Scallion noodle was not properly made.
Picky Eater R.

My beef wonton was mixed with pork wontons for no reason. I understand accidents happen but BOTH of our orders? Scallion(Tsong Yo) noodle was nothing alike I had in Shanghai. Server did not offer water until we asked. Server never mentioned about stamps card (we overheard from other customers). But it's okay I don't think we are going to come back anyways.

Vegan dumplings in peanut sauce
Araya U.

Were these a little pricey for how much food you get? Sure, maybe a tad bit. Were they delicious though? Yes. And therefore worth every penny! I went in on a quiet Friday afternoon and while they were not terribly busy, though there were a group of girls having lunch there together as well as a couple, and a reader dining solo. With my vegan dining companion, we ordered 2 vegan dumplings in peanut sauce, which were ready relatively quickly. We both loved these dumplings, and were especially impressed with that peanut sauce! So good!! I'll definitely be back for this, although I hope to try the dumplings in soup next time. We unfortunately had further errands to do this day, so were unable to pick up frozen dumplings to take home, but will absolutely do so next time we are in. My only criticism of this place may be the seating - while counter spots line the wall and a communal table sat in the back, I wish there were other options for dining couples like me who wished to face each other. However, I also liked their minimalist decor and worry that adding more seating may take away from this... who knows what the right answer may be! Regardless of the seating situation, I'll be returning to Daily Dumpling Wonton Co for as long as my wallet will allow me to!

Classic wonton with peanut sauce
Mengxi S.

I'm from the same region in China where we eat wontons on a daily basis instead of Jiaozi(dumplings). I got really excited when I heard about this place since they serve shepherd's purse. Pork with shepherd's purse is the transitional and most classic wonton style. It's probably regional, barely can be found in food outside of Shanghai/Jiangsu province. Daily Wonton did not let me down. Wontons are very authentic, and I recommend trying with peanut sauce, it will bring out the flavours of meat. Good to know this place also has vegan option so I can bring my vegan friend here next time. We also ordered side dishes, 13-spice beef is quite tasty with a hint of vinegar, and goes really well with Tsong-yo Noodles. Their Chili oil is not spicy at all. It adds aroma rather than spiciness.Oh well Shanghainese can't actually take spicy lol My friends and I all got frozen wontons to go. Having these in my fridge will satisfy my late night cravings!

Toronto Review 4/Many: I went to this excellent Lanzhou spot with another person as one of my…read moreearlier meals. Our server, Sophia, was bubbly and friendly, giving suggestions and helping with the ordering process for the other person who wasn't as sure what they wanted. We eventually went with two appetizers and two entrees, which was more than enough food, and honestly, we could have only ordered one appetizer. The better of the two appetizers was the CAD 8.95 Hand Shredded Pepper Chicken/手撕椒麻雞/Shou Si Ji. The dish consists of cold chicken in a flavorful sauce, topped with some greens. The chicken was tender, with a mild, pleasant spice and a bit of numbingness from the Sichuan peppercorns, along with some fragrance, presumably from sesame oil. It reminded me a bit of salivating chicken you find in some Szechuan spots, but it was more aromatic and a bit less spicy. The other appetizer was the Steamed Edamame/岩鹽毛豆 with Himalayan pink salt for CAD 5.95. The other person chose between this and the vegetable dumplings, as he avoids pork, and it was, of course, lighter than the other appetizer. The decent portion of edamame was topped with some pickled carrots as a garnish. My main dish was the Braised Beef Noodles/紅燒牛肉面/Hong Shao Niu Rou Mian. The dish included several options, including size, noodle style, and spice level. I chose the large for CAD $20.95, medium spice, and for the noodle style, I chose flat/宽面, as it was closest to the prism style I like at Lanzhou spots in the States. Along with these, I also added a tea egg for an extra CAD 2.95. Outside the add-on, the dish also had a couple of large slices of radish. Compared to some spots in NYC, I slightly preferred the QQ/bouncy texture of the noodles at a spot near me. However, the broth was better here with a balanced amount of mala, though I would likely order spicy next time, as I tend to add chili oil to the relatively lighter Lanzhou broths. The beef was also much better, being tender with a mild chew regardless of whether it was tendon or other cuts. The tea egg was flavorful and worth the add-on, especially when the inside was dipped further into the broth. I can see why others order this. The other person went with the Signature Stir-fried Noodles/招牌炒面/Chao Tatiaozi. There was an option of protein, and he went with Chicken for $17.95 and added the same egg. I tried a bit, and there was a pleasant pepperiness with a bit of numbing flavor, but less than my dish. The noodles had a good bounciness and overall had a slightly better chewiness than mine. This was lighter overall, but also tasty. This spot has apparently come to the US already at the Mall of America, and I would love it if there were a location closer to me. Good place.

One of my go-to options when I'm on campus & hungry! I always get the cold sesame noodles, they're…read moredeliciously tangy and have a nice lingering spice that makes me want to eat more. The other noodle dishes I've tried from here have been consistently good as well. They let you select what noodle thickness you like, and I think the thick flat noodles were too big for me, I was making a fool out of myself trying to slurp them all up ! I recommend getting medium ones so sauce doesn't splash all over you like what happened to me! A great, affordable meal option.

They pride in using fresh and local ingredients served creatively, and always with new ideas and dishes with the tasting menu changing constantly to match what's in season. Some of the dishes really emphasized the freshness and the quality of the ingredients, showcased in our starting dish of asparagus, egg confit, cure pork and leeks. The salt was minimal, and it tasted so clean, fresh, and well put together. Paneer with makhni was also included playing heavily on the delicious Indian flavors that were so full of umami taste, I could not believe this dish did not have meat. The chicken was one of my favorites with a smoked butter sauce. I could not believe white meat could be this tender and moist and absorb flavor so well. The fish was also great, as was the dessert, a rhubarb tiramisu to give a tangy contrast to the mascarpone cream. This was tasting menu #248, and the menu will change about every 2 weeks it seems like, which is amazing. Finally, I loved that explicitly state that tips are not accepted despite the amazing service and elevated food. I definitely would want to come back again, knowing there's a lot more creative ideas to try in different dishes while having a very solid cooking foundation.

I had originally wanted to order the duck, but knew at my first bite exactly why Richmond Station is so popular. The burger came medium rare and was pasture raised beef with aged cheddar and chutney. The fries were a tiny bit burnt but still good, and the aioli it came with was great. Yum! Loved my meal here and would definitely come back for the tasting menu next time!

It's also been a reliable spot to be able to book tables for large groups. However, they have poor problem resolution if there are any issues that arise. Their food is all pretty good and drinks are fairly priced. Their staff are what I would call elusive and very no frills--beyond your first order, they're a bit hard to flag down to order additional items, settle bills, or otherwise. We had an incident where my friend ordered an alcohol-free beer, but when received, they had a sip and suspected it had alcohol in it because it tasted like the regular alcoholic version. We asked the staff to confirm if the drink they poured was actually alcoholic beer on tap, or if it was an emptied can of the alcohol-free beer. The staff came back and apologized, saying it was the alcoholic beer and poured from the tap but the order placed was indeed the alcohol-free beer. My friend then requested to have the can for the alcohol-free beer instead of poured in a glass to be safe, because she was pregnant. The staff then realized the gravity of the issue and went to get the can, saying we can keep the other glass. A few minutes later, someone who I presume to be a manager came over to say she had clarified the situation again and that it was actually NOT the alcoholic beer--which at this point we weren't inclined to trust. The manager did not apologize, but instead said that a bit of alcohol is okay when you're pregnant... We didn't say anything or raise a fuss, just smiled awkwardly. We left not too long after, and we were charged for the mistaken beer as well. This experience put a bit of damper on going to this place, as it was a frequent spot we visited for decent happy hour specials. However it's evident that staff do not know how to handle special circumstances, nor do they seem to have high EQ. If you are a person with no dietary needs, no wheelchair or crutches (because it's cramped as hell and the washrooms are located on the 2nd floor), not pregnant, and no allergies, then this place is probably fine. But if you have any of the above, then you should skip it in case of incident.

My first impression honestly made me wonder if it was really worth all the praise. By the end of the meal, I had my answer. Arugula Caprese Insalata A creative take on a classic Caprese salad. Arugula replaces basil, while a rich Parmesan cream stands in for fresh mozzarella, giving the dish a deeper, more savory profile without losing the freshness of the tomatoes. The balsamic balances the arugula's slight bitterness beautifully, and the juicy tomatoes cut through the richness of the cream. Fried capers add a pleasant burst of Mediterranean saltiness at the end. Simple ingredients, thoughtfully combined. Chicken Scarpariello This was easily the highlight of the meal. The chicken skin was beautifully seasoned and roasted until fragrant. Instead of being overly juicy, the meat was incredibly tender, with a faint blush of pink at the center. The Italian sausage had a firm, satisfying bite and a rich meaty flavor. I rarely describe roasted potatoes as "melt-in-your-mouth," but these truly were. The sauce, made with white wine, onions, peppers, and tomatoes, was so flavorful that I ended up using bread to wipe the plate clean--and still wished there had been more bread. Italian Love Cake A layered dessert of chocolate cake, ricotta cheesecake, and chocolate mousse. Each layer offered a different texture: the mousse was smooth without feeling heavy, the cake slightly dry, and the ricotta layer pleasantly crumbly. The texture was more memorable than the flavor, but it was surprisingly light to finish despite being a chocolate dessert. Tiramisu Although it's priced at $19.50, the portion is generous--about one and a half times the size of a typical tiramisu. The mascarpone was silky, rich, and pleasantly creamy with a touch of sweetness. The ladyfingers were well soaked with espresso and carried a subtle hint of liqueur. It tasted like a textbook tiramisu: everything was executed correctly, even if it wasn't particularly surprising. Many years from now, I may no longer remember the wildfire that day--but I'll probably still remember this chicken.
