Review Dumplings - Christchurch

Food was lovely and the service was amazing, despite being understaffed! Both the lady and the Brazilian guy were very hospitable and friendly, and the service was very fast! Dishes were reasonably priced and the Wontons were to die for. Would definitely recommend to anyone!

Absolutely amazing food and service. Best dumplings in Christchurch (especially the beef-root dumplings) and they make the BEST pink gin blossom cocktail too! I have been here numerous times now both alone and with friends/family and have never been disappointed. The atmosphere is great and the staff are always super friendly! Unfortunately, today I was reminded how horrible some people truly are as a person who appeared to be an Uber Eats driver started cussing out the staff calling them all sorts of derogative names just because the staff asked him to put the order in a heat-containing bag. The staff handled the situation amazingly, all things considering, but it was such an unpleasant experience to see people like him treating the lovely staff like that. Please remember to be respectful to those around you and treat others how you would like to be treated...

Amazing food, AMAZING service! We went this evening (Wednesday 27th September) and despite being understaffed both the ladies we dealt with were INCREDIBLE! Made a great experience phenomenal. Thank you so much for your kindness!! I can not say enough how much it was appreciated!

Always love this place. The bao are especially delicious. Favourite dumplings have got to be the beef and beetroot ones, so good! Service is good and food comes out pretty quickly and piping hot.

This was quite an izakaya experience! Dumplings are good, and come in plenty of variations. It was a nice touch to have chilli and vinegar on the side for us to choose as dipping sauces. Crowded on a Friday at dinner time. Might be better if you make a reservation in advance. Would the bar consider having soup on the menu?

Great casual dumpling place for best dumplings experience in the city. Been coming here for past few years and it never disappoints. Tofu salad and Tofu Bao are delicious too !

Had an absolutely amazing time out tonight the food was delicious the service was great everyone was happy I felt bad for the staff as an uber driver was extremely rude he refused to do as was asked then started abusing them saying pretty nasty things to them. Absolutely amazing work to all that were on tonight.

I’m here for a late lunch at 2:30 when there is almost no customers. It’s getting busier when it’s heading to 3. I would say, this is a new type of dumpling restaurant to me, with a industrial interior design, helpful & friendly staff, straight forward menu and pop background music. Tastewise, dumplings are quite big which are made with generous fillings and very thin wrapper. Personally, despite the colorful look, I can’t tell the fillings from one to another. And I don’t quite understand the way they offer the sauce, as you can see there is Chinese vinegar, Japanese soy sauce, and Thailand spicy sauce all together on the table. Probably they are aiming the International Theme and try to attract different types of customers instead of just Asians. Well, if you are a big fan of dumplings and want to have something new, u may give it a go.

Everything was delicious!! Favourite menu item was the Fried Chicken Bao Bun. The sriracha Mayo kind of sauce in it pulled everything together, chicken was cooked perfectly ☺️

A cosy bar with really comfortable ambience. Staff are very friendly and attentive. The food was good overall and our table was served fairly quickly, (early evening on a weekday). I'd highly recommend the Pork Belly Bao and Spring Ginger Piglet dumplings, and a refreshing glass of Asahi Super Dry. Price was reasonable per dish, but mounts up if you're on a first-time-visit and are looking to try a wide selection. Definitely will be going back.

Tried the Dumpling Platter. The fillings are generally decent and spot on but the pastry does break up too easily and is a little dry. My favorite is the beef dumpling with tomato based sauce, the mushroom dumpling is not bad too. Most of the dumplings are similar to each other though.

The food is still as delicious as always! This time I got the mixed dumplings platter (yum) and had to get the Whittaker’s Steamed Buns again! So good! By
