ok I would say 3.7 rating for this place. The setting is basic but the duck is awesome and dimsum were awesome. Just a wonderful Chinese fast food place!
I don’t usually eat dumplings but colleagues rave about this place .. lifting it up on a pedestal like it was a new discovery! Anyhoo have to agree they were pretty good. Need to control yourself otherwise may find that during chit chats that ur munching more than your belt size can handle! I have also tried their noodles as well.. pretty good.
Fast, cheap, friendly, tasty. Everything one would want in a dumpling restaurant. Came for early dinner. Tried a few different dumplings the pan fried pork were the best, the pan fried beef okay but avoid. Had the Langzhou beef noodles, very good, the broth rich and tasty but less salty (or MSG heavy) than typical which was good. Staff were very quick to take our order and anything extra we wanted to order. We liked it. Will be back
Delicious dumplings and very generous serving sizes for main course dishes. Very friendly staff as well, always attending to customers needs with a happy attitude
Great, reasonably priced dumplings and sweet and sour pork. Wait for food is virtually non existent. Highly unlikely you'd need to spend more than $40 to feed two.
My favourite place to have dumplings!
Soups and duck fried rice is also nice.
Reasonable prices and fast service.
Great location for this place.
Will recommend this place.
Been coming here infrequently for a few years and it feels like there has been a recent change of owners/ chefs. The noodle soup dishes ordered were a bit hit and miss with some broths well seasoned while others were quite lacking. The duck fried rice was a major hit though. Would strongly recommend ! Service was very pleasant.
In the past I've had issues with the food being quite oily. I recently returned and was extremely content with the duck fried rice - extremely flavorful, smelled delicious and the portion was filling. The dumplings were pretty good, although the chicken ones I had didn't taste super fresh. The pork ones however, were well seasoned and tasted better.
Dumpling king has a huge menu. But as the name suggests they specialise in dumplings. Always a solid place to go after work or a few drinks when you're in Hawthorn. Forgo all the fancy chinese dishes and just do dumplings for the best value for money.
We come about once a month, and it's usually pretty good dumplings and main meals. The food can go up and down, particularly the duck fried rice. Loved it when they used to serve it was iceberg lettuce sauteed through, but maybe next time. Service is minimal but they haven't missed an order or a drink in all the times we've been there. There are a lot of tables so they are quick but don't mind if you linger. BYO for sure! Great for groups as the food comes out fast. Just a tip to specify that you want dishes staggered or to order in parts because they will bring out all the dishes at once otherwise. Not even enough room on the table! And I recommend bringing cash as well! They have a minimum for cards.
First time trying their food and I’m impress with the dumplings. Try it with their chilli as it goes well with it and the chilli is not spicy so it’s great for those who can’t take too spicy. Restaurant is not too crowded so it’s an overall nice ambience to dine in. Affordable pricing too and generous portion of food.
Noone goes here and I love it. 7pm Friday night my girlfriend and I are the only people here. The waitress wears her mask properly. A very covid safe place. Food is pretty good, price is great. I reccomend the fried pork dumplings and the Amazing Calimari. I do not reccomend the prawn dumplings.
I feel like a number of bad reviews here may be based on what to expect in a upper end restaurant.
I'd like to take it back a step and rate it for the type of restaurant it is; cheap, quick, and clean.
The service staff are dressed very casually, but is friendly and prompt.
The food is tasty and comes out quickly.
The prices are VERY modest.
Five stars for the price point. 👍

Great noodles, had the Shanghai style noodles with pork. Good, large serving size and PLENTY of yummy honey glazed pork in there. Recommend for sure!
Delicious fried rice there. Price is good and portion is large enough to share.
