| - Incredibly cramped entree way you have to wait in to get a table and its really unpleasant. Space is wide enough for one person, but you constantly have waiters coming through to give an order to the dumpling ladies at the front and people coming past to the cash to put in a takeout order. Once you get a table, its ok. Pretty dressed-down place, with good steamed dumplings. Their fried dumplings look ridiculously oily so I haven't tried them.
They only serve steamed dumplings in portions of 15, which is ridiculously too much for one person, I really wish they would let you do a half order. They have 2 vegetarian options, which are both ok.
Service was good enough, they constantly come around to fill you water glass and bring the food quick - BUT they rush you out. They brought the check before we were finished the dumplings and before we asked for it, and immediately took the dishes away when you finished it. I guess they like a quick turnover, but its definitely not appreciated.
Note there is no dessert available.
TL;DR: decent dumplings, huge portions, ok service, entry-way unpleasantly tight. Can't decide whether I'd recommend here or Mother's Dumpling (where the service has sadly been awful this year)
