This is one of those Melbourne's "hidden" treasures. Nice environment, great customer service, and food: just delicious. I had a smoked salmon fried rice and it was really good, not over or under seasoned. Try it with sweet chilli sauce...
Love this local of mine. Hard to explore the menu when you get such great favourites so early in the experience. But I'm trying!
How about some Taiwanese Tapas? If i’m not mistaken, Huang Jin, means gold.. and parts were surely gold! A colleague introduced me to Mr. Huang Jin because of their taiwanese fried chicken (TFC). They’d always order a 2nd dish whenever they go. And it did not disappoint! We went on a Wednesday night around 6pm, at about 7pm it was full house! So be in quick or perhaps make a reservation.. It is a cosy restaurant just off an alley way of Katherine Place…
Real find for us, in an area not renown for Asian eats. Had vego Singapore noodles and dumplings. Tasty, with a light touch in the preparation. Will come again to try more. Recommended!
This is a nice small place near me! I'm surprised this place is hidden away in a quiet street because if it's in the CBD Central it will be so popular!
The xiao long baos are on point! Very thin chewy skin and bursts of soup and meat in mouth. I'm a very fussy xiao long baos eater and this one passed the test.
The duck soup omg so nice!! Was slurping it till the last drop. I'll def be back to this place!

Decent quality food at affordable prices. Fried chicken, dumplings, satay skewers and gua bao were all really yummy. The xiaolongbao was average.
The restaurant is very small so there’s not much room between tables. The seats were interesting (not very comfortable though).
Mr Huang Jin in Melbourne CBD. It is a boutique dumpling house serving the xiaolongbao and other steam and fried dumplings. I don’t think it is authentic Shanghainese style but a bit fusion and more juicy. Xiaolongbao is a bit small and expensive but overall it is tasty and like the duck fried rice as well.
Small place that is almost always packed. Their chilli dimsum is unmatched and difficult to not obssess over. Small menu with a bit of the mainstream items. All very delicious. The rice noodles were done nicely as well with just the right amount of crunch to it. However this placd is known for it's dimsums
The chicken roll was a bit empty and dry and kept falling apart but the roll cover was tasty.
So grateful to find this hidden gem near Southern Cross Station. Lovely juicy xiao long bao, tasty pan fried dumplings, stir fried vegetarian noodle and Taiwanese fried chicken. Have to mention the special cold noodle dish that was recommended by one of the staffs. It's a great summer dish to share. It has a peanut and sesame dressing on it, so delicious. Will visit again.
Hands down best dumplings I have had in Melbourne! It’s a place where you can actually sit down and enjoy your meal, rather than the ‘get ‘em in, get ‘me out’ experience that you typically have in dumpling restaurants. Also the acoustics in this restaurant are excellent - when taking my parents, grandparents or other family members out for dinner it’s always great to be able to hear them! Prawn wontons, laksa filled dumplings and TFC particular favourites!
Eat. Sleep. Create. Repeat.

Used to work in the same building so it’s always one of my lunch options. Came back recently, it still tasted the same - one of the quality lunch dining places hidden in Flinders lane even though the place is a bit tight. I would give 5 stars and come frequently if they would offer a lunch budget price.
We did not make reservation but the staff let us in before next reservation arrival. Food taste good. We had TFC (Taiwanese Fried Chicken), Prawn Dumplings (蝦餃) and Kung Po chicken.
A recommendation from a friend so decided to come by. Cosy place and advice to make booking during peak period. Enjoy the dumplings and tried the fried duck rice. Great taste. Will return to try others on the menu.
Went for the Xiao Long Bao and they definitely didn't disappoint! Also had the Emerald pork dumplings and pan fried beef dumplings which were really tasty, but was so busy eating and getting into it we forget to take a photo to add with the Xiao Long Bao!
It is a little small so you may feel a bit cramped especially if you have more than 3 or 4 people, but the smaller space suits the atmosphere pretty much perfectly.
Everyone at my workplace raves about these dumplings, and they don't disappoint... So full of flavour! Be warned it is bustling on a weekday lunch time.
Hidden off the street, a great spot for authentic and tasty Taiwanese dishes. Perfect Xioa Long Bao!
Great food. Great services. Very friendly folk. Look forward to coming back!
Visit before heading to the airport for my flight back to Sydney. Informed the staff beforehand that we are kind of in a rush and the dishes were sent out real quick. The Taiwanese friend chicken is super delicious and so does the hot and sour soup. Will definitely go again for our next visit in Melbourne for other dishes on the menu.
Some of the best dumplings we have ever tasted, quality ingredients. Taiwanese fried chicken and chicken chop to die for, fried rice was flavourful and not oily. Can't fault any of the flavours, service was friendly and prompt as this place is consistently busy, especially at lunch. Will definitely be back!
