rev:text	The benefit of this place is clear... dumplings in the West-Island. It's a nice change from the banal restaurants that typically serve the same frozen slop in the West. But I feel they didn't do their homework. If you've had dumplings anywhere else, you'll notice a slight lack of authenticity that you wouldn't expect from a restaurant that specializes in dumplings. I believe in voting with your dollar, so I don't recommend this restaurant more than a last case resort, for the moment . Here's why: ambiance is clean and fresh, but cold with no character- picture an Asian McCafe or ThaiGrill(except higher cost of meal). They play radio music, (while you spend 30$ per person) as if it's a diner. The dumplings are machine pressed, not handmade, which does effect the texture and some would say they taste frozen, but apparently they're not. So are they freshly made, in house? Hard to tell. They have less volume of filling per dumpling and less dumplings per plate. You get 12 instead of classic 15 or 16 count. Plus, you pay more. Let's say for Lamb dumplings you'll pay 3$-4$ extra than the average city price. Also, you are charged for tea at this restaurant, which is borderline insulting and a big dissapointment. In similar restos that are authenitic, the tea comes automiatically with your meal (unlimited refills). In the end, you pay about double you would at any other dumpling house. It was a shock to pay 25-30$ for the same order that costs me 12$ in Chinatown. Cost us 145$ for four, tax and tip in!!! If you live in the W-I, it's cheaper to drive to Chinatown and have the real deal. Also, found it funny that they serve string beans as a "side" with the dumplings (which is why they will argue they charge more than competitors). Please just leave them out and charge the market price. I wish I took a picture of those sorry looking string beans with sauce, because they do not look so good when they're not stylized like in the picture. About dessert: The mochi ice cream was fun though. Basically, it's like a fruity icecream testicle. (Same technique used as with the mochi pastries- rice paper shell). Also, it's clear that the owners/employees of this restaurant dropped reviews here. Why didn't the Yelp filter catch them...
