Pork and mushroom dumpling
Jennifer P.

The Short Version: Great little Asian restaurant in the Plateau that specializes in dumplings but also has other items. Food was tasty. The Long Version: My husband and I had dinner here and we really enjoyed it. I initially was going to get their soup dumplings (their specialty), but when I looked at the menu, I saw that they had Laksa ($18.99), so I couldn't resist ordering that instead. My husband prefers pan-fried dumplings over soup dumplings, so he got the pork and mushroom dumplings ($14.50) and there was a $1.99 surcharge for pan-frying (the base price is for steamed). My Laksa was huge and delicious. The broth was so rich with coconut milk and a bit spicy. It was really flavourful. The noodles had a nice chew to them. The soup also contained some decent-sized shrimp, velvetized sliced chicken, cubes of tofu and a boiled egg. I wished it had some vegetables in though because I felt very unhealthy eating just starch and protein, lol. I did enjoy it though ;) I had one of my husband's dumplings and it was good. It had ground pork in it and chopped up mushrooms. There was a slight gingery taste to it. I liked it and my husband liked them too. Service was very pleasant. The server refilled our waters regularly and I like that the water had ice in it and was very cold. The restaurant is not too large and has seating on a main level then up a few steps they have 4 more tables of 4 by the front window. We walked there from our hotel, but as with pretty much all businesses in The Plateau it's street parking only. Review #209 (2025)

Restaurant front from across the street.

Staying in this Montreal neighborhood for a couple of days & Yum Yum was right across the street. We ordered peanut dumplings, cucumber salad & and spring rolls . All 3 were freshly made & ready for pickup in 10 minutes. Dumplings were soft, delicate & the peanut sauce was amazing. Gentlemen taking orders(owner?) was polite & efficient, repeating the order back again on pick up. Appetizer size portions were inexpensive and once we started eating, I almost placed a 2nd order as it was outstanding.

Shrimp, pork, and chive dumplings

This place was oh so close to hitting a homerun with us! We came here on a recent Friday night for dinner, and the cozy dining room was busy enough but we saw at least one open table, but were told by staff that we would need to wait about 10-15 minutes to be seated. This is not a massive space, and I kinda digged the unassuming, bustling local restaurant vibe. There were two pairs of people in front of us but they turned out to be picking up, so we were seated probably right about when they said we would get a table. The menu is uncomplicated, and we settled on the shrimp, pork, and chive dumplings (12 pcs) and seafood laksa. There was a chili next to the laksa on the menu and when I asked staff, we were told that it was impossible to make it less spicy. Food came out without much delay. The dumplings were possibly some of the best I've had, and if someone told me they made them to order, I'd totally believe it because they tasted freshly made. The fillings were tender and flavourful, and the honey soy sauce was just right for dipping because it wasn't overly salty. The laksa is where Yum Yum lost an extra star. Apart from the fact that the broth was so spicy that it almost made me gag when I occasionally accidentally inhaled it, it seemed that they have added their own touches to the authentic laksa in that the broth wasn't as rich as I'm used, and the noodles weren't the typical fine ones that I've come to expect. Having said that, the toppings were cooked to perfection, and the overall flavour was enjoyable. By the way, the lady who sat next to our table and got the same laksa as us was clearly having trouble with the spiciness as well. Curiously, the staff offered the lady to make the broth less spicy, which the lady politely declined, but it did make me wonder about whether they can make it less spicy for people like us and her who enjoy the flavour but can't handle the broth as it is. All in all a great experience, and we would definitely consider going back.

Really wanted some soup dumplings even with the winter storm happening so went to this place as it was the closest one to our accommodation. Food came out a bit slower than usual but the staff did inform us it might take a bit. Really enjoyed the peanut rolls, the soup dumplings were just okay (I've had better ones). I think it's still pretty decent for the price though.

Whenever I am in Montreal this is a must stop for soup dumplings. All freshly made to order. Taste is amazing.

Soup dumplings

What a surprise this little dumpling restaurant is! It's just down the street from where we are staying in Le Plateau and it got great reviews so we decided to give it a try. Saturday night at 6:30 and they were pretty full but we were able to get a table right away. They did great business with a steady turnover of tables and a thriving to-go and delivery business. There was just one server and he was super busy but really nice and attentive- my water was always full! Hubs had his first soup dumplings (the shrimp, pork and chive ones everyone raved about in other reviews) and the owner came out and showed him the proper way to eat them! I had the vegetable soup and the mashed potato dumplings which I loved. Their house made chili oil was out of this world and you can actually buy jars of it (which I did). Food is a little slow to come out because all the dumplings are made to order. Talk about fresh! The only thing I didn't love was the side of kimchi that I ordered. It wasn't bad, just not for me. We loved everything else and would absolutely go back!

Food: good! An order of soup dumpling comes with 10. I wanted more after. I wasn't hungry after finishing, but I wasn't fully full either. Service: the guy let me pick where I wanted to sit and he helped me order. I wish that they would have checked in on me after I had received my food. I might have ordered more food then. Ambiance: the place is okay. It's clean and has a lot of seatings.

Ate at Yum Yum because I just happened to be walking by and looked in the window and the food looked amazing. We got the vegetable fried rice, vegetable noodles, and the #39 and #40 dumplings. The friend rice was the best I've ever tasted in my life. Not too salty & very creamy, plus the vegetables were all fresh. I was surprised when the noodles came out and they were crunchy but I ended up loving the dish. Not something I would've tried intentionally but glad we got them because they were delicious. The favorite of all was the mashed potato dumplings! The dumpling dough was perfectly chewy and the potatoes inside were creamy and flavorful. Best of all, the family that runs this place is incredibly friendly and welcoming. Absolute 10/10 experience. So glad I stumbled upon this place and I will be back.

Pork and Cilantro Dumplings
Thierry O.

It was great first experience visiting this restaurant. Food was very flavourful for the price and well presented! Good seafood in Laksa, and everything was fresh! For the Soup Dumplings I ordered the Pork and Cilantro and they were very juicy! Place was clean! Packaging was also very presentable and staff was very friendly!

Soup dumplings-shrimp pork and mushroom

This has been my favorite meal in Montreal. A cozy restaurant with incredible staff. My server took the time to explain the menu to me, and told me their specialty was the soup dumplings. I chose those along with some dim sum. An extremely kind woman came from behind the counter and taught me the proper way to eat the soup dumplings - what a phenomenal experience! Highly, highly recommend. The food was delicious.

I had a craving for a smoothie and Chatime had them...many of the other Chinatown cold drink places…read moreonly offered tea variations of their drinks. I wanted sometime with no tea. I saw the menu and it said smoothies...so I went in and asked for one of the ones on the menu. The guy at the counter said that if I did not want milk, they could use oat milk, which was perfect...also at the time of ordering he asked what level sugar I wanted...I said Low...so I went with the 30%. It was nice to be able to customize my smoothie that way. I was very happy and impressed. The strawberry slush was nice, frosty and very cold. It had a nice light strawberry taste and it arrived with a heat seal lid. I would get a smoothie again at this place. I loved the experience.

Service-wise, it was great. Simple, fast, and ready with a bubble tea in your hand within a minute or two. The store is not a sit-down spot, but more of a small stall where you grab and go. I've been to several Chatime shops in the States, so I have an idea of what to expect and it's pretty much how Chatimes are rated in the States as well. We stopped by while going to nearby Old Montreal and happened to walk into Chinatown. I wanted to see what Chinatown in Montreal was like and truly got an idea for it. It's busy and all the stores are bustling and open crazy late -- just like this spot. This spot is open 24/7, which is unheard of in the other Chinatowns that I've been to in my life. We tried Presotea near our hotel so right away we had an idea of which bubble tea shop was considered higher-end/pricier. This spot was definitely for the cost-saving person who just wants a quick fix of bubble tea. The difference between the two is obvious. I ordered regular milk tea with the QQ topping. I like the QQ topping (which is nata de coco jelly with regular tapioca). It's half lychee jelly and half black pearls. The bubbles did not have the flavor that the Presotea bubbles had. Chatime is simply plain with no taste in their bubbles, which is fine. Tea-wise - I could not immediately tell the difference. However, in the end, each shop is meant for two different people.

I got their new product "happy taro milk tea" which comes pre-assembled with smashed taro chunks, taro balls, oats, and sago. It was very tasty. This boba shop prides themself in making sure they add enough ingredients/toppings in each drink and also give you the option to do less ice. I love that because I hate paying $5-7 for a boba that is mostly milk tea and 1/3 ice cubes.

I was walking everywhere and when I came across Shuyi Tealicious en route to the nearby art museum it appeared like some sort of desert mirage. I've never been so eager for a boba drink as I was at that moment. As a regular reader of yelp reviews I come often upon those for tea/boba shops and it's always a mystery to me how anyone knows what to order. The menus in these type of places are just plain confusing for someone who doesn't regularly consume these drinks. Shuyi's is no exception. But here's a secret: based on my random order one can't go wrong here even if one has no idea what it is they're ordering. Here at Shuyi Tealicious I ordered up something with Strawberry and Boba and drank it while sharing a nearby bench with an amusing bronze sculpture. That drink was so satisfying that it was done before my stomach knew it and I had to fight an urge to head back inside for drink #2. Yes, I was that dehydrated. These drinks are extremely satisfying, especially if you don't want to be overfilled while staring at art for the next few hours. I might not know anything about this type of place but I did like it a lot and it served to satisfy my craving.

I am very glad, I did this time. The L2Lounge looks inviting with lots of seating places, looking quite comfortable. The seats are placed so that each group feels like their own private cubicle. Drawing display on the wall is contemporary and jazzy. I like when I see a place that looks to be bright, well maintained and clean. We had just finished our lunch somewhere else and now ordered one "crème molle" of mixed macha and taro as we are fond of both flavours. Instead of expecting the usual insolent remarks of many servers in that neighbourhood, being not entirely happy of ordering just one item, the question from the lady behind the counter was "do you want one spoon or two?" This is what I call customer service at its best. For this treatment alone, I will definitely come again and bring friends. This is going to be my favorite dessert place in this area. The ice-cream was just delicious, creamy and tasting all natural ingredients, with the price being very descent. There are also numerous bubble tea options that look very appetizing and would be on my order at my next visit. This is a dessert gem, worth exploring.
