Don't let the interior fool you (it is a true hole in the wall), this place has wonderful food. The dumplings were great and the sweet and sour chicken and pork were yummy.

Great dumplings, great service, love it! I prefer the traditional boiled dumplings over the fried ones, but give them all a go. There are so many different fillings to choose from. Great spot!
