Quiet little gem in Docklands
Recommended by a friend, and now I cannot recommend it enough! Delicious and light dumplings, with perfect proportions.
The venue was nice and spacey and perfect for large groups.
10/10
I tried the wanton soup for lunch it was really delicious and healthy with lots of veggies such as brocolli, bokchoy and egg garnishes. My colleague had the same dish on a different day and commented the same. The soup tasted just right not salty or bland. I have also had the chicken & prawn dumplings take away for a meeting and it was all gone within minutes. Will comeback to try the noodle dishes as they look good too!
I’ve given a 4 star as the dumplings here are just downright fantastic. However, I hope my next feedback brings attention for the management to address—— if you’re just after a duck-in / duck-out meal, this is the place to go. Maybe even order a take away instead as the little service that Honey Tang’s front of house provides is a sour, condescending attitude who smirked & ignored us when we tried to wave to her to remind about a pot of tea that we’ve already ordered and paid for. This is when the shop was practically just us two, and another man who have already ordered as well. To the management reading this review, your service needs immense improvement otherwise the Docklands crowd will not put up with this kind of behaviour. Also the sauces and sauce trays need regular cleaning, it is so sticky and dirty and reeks of vinegar stains. The place is beautifully set up, hope it’s going to be a pleasant one to have a meal in next visit.
Came here for a quick Friday night dinner and wasn't disappointed. Everything from the spring onion pancakes and spring rolls to the dumplings and noodles was delicious. Friendly and polite service. Will be back
Lucky to be invited to check out the latest dumpling join in the new business district of melbourne. As the offices move towards docklands it’s great to see more restaurants !
We came here for dinner (yes you can work late and still have dumplings here).
What we had:
Pan fried pork dumplings: juicy and tasty and not too oil which was great. Would loved it if it was a bit crunchier on the bottom though.
Xiao Long Bao (soup dumpling): perfectly thin skin with a tasty soup filling. Watch out for the soup!
Chilli wontons: I don’t usually order this but they were super tasty! The chilli was spicy but flavoursome so don’t forget to dip it in!
Pork fried noodles: Loved that the noodles were not too oily and had good flavour but was slightly let down by the use of bacon and not actually pork.
Had the xiao long bao and the chilli chicken dumplings and they were delicious! It took a while for the order but it was worth the wait! Thanks for the wonderful meal and i will be coming back for more!

Absolutely love the dumplings there! We came here on Sunday night - they’ve just started to open at night.
We started off with jasmine tea and. Peaflower iced tea, comes in purple colour - it was really light and good not too sweet.
The pan fried dumplings we had were crispy on the side, the taste was spot on. The xiao long baos were also really good, the juice inside of the dumplings was amazing. We also like the chilli chicken wonton! A little bit on the spicy side, so its not for the weak hearted. Reasonably priced as well.
We met the owner, he was so nice and really passionate about what he is doing. The staff was really friendly too !
Overall, we think this place totally deserves 5 stars.
I really like this place. Dumplings are always delicious! I understand some of the other reviews: the servings are not huge (which I like but others might not), price is a tad higher than most dumpling places (better quality though) and there were some definite teething issues in terms of wait times. That said, it's a good choice for a small lunch and probably worthy of a little more than its current rating.
My meals have always been absolutely delicious and served in a very timely manner. Prices are excellent and the wine very drinkable. The staff are friendly and efficient and I love the foliage all around the restaurant.
