The steamed dumplings are delicious as is the sticky rice dish. Staff are friendly and the atmosphere is very cool. Had a drink at the bar and moved to the table. Will be back.
The absolute crispiest pork belly crackling . Very generous portion too. But also loved the steamed broccoli , and, in fact all of the dumplings . Knocks 'chain' dim sum places into a cocked steamer.
Vibrant and fun place for those on or near Lower Clapton Road . Currently don't do take out . Food is tasty and authentic - turnip cake was a tasty surprise. Everything worth trying.
Very tasty menu. Especially the dumplings with the crab and the one with the prawns were divine. Also very nice interiors, well done for the beautiful “secret” garden !
The steamed scallops with glass noodles , har gau, steamed rice and Chinese bbq glazed boneless chicken leg were so good. A lovely place with a great vibe, a must visit.
Pork belly , fish dumplings and fried wontons were delicious. 25£ set menu for bookings which at the end vs quantity sounded a bit expensive . But overall impressed by the place and it’s secret garden !
Amazing, vegan and gluten options were satisfying, everything tasted really great but total bill was a bit of a surprise £75 with glass of wine and sake for two. Wow!
Good Food, the classic dishes were the best. Pork Belly and the Prawn dumplings were my highlight. The specials were not very special, stick with the main menu.
Great to have a spot like this in E5 / E9. Authentic dim sum , but Shanghai Dalston still pips it for variety and quality (if not for on-trend interior design )
Vegetarians relatively well catered for here, just order one each of each dim sum with a (V) next to it and you’ll be good
Great rice ???? ???????? Pak Choi was yum! Chocolate crispy (‘spring’) rolls and salted caramel sauce for afters ????
You must leave room for the chocolate dumplings . The cocktails are good. Definitely get several platters to share. The pork belly is delicious too :)
Lamb dumplings is a most, pork belly is a most, fried wontons is a most! This place is a most!
Amazingly tasty and delicious food. Highly recommend. Get there early to avoid a wait but also check out the great sake bar downstairs ????
The pork belly is beaaaaautiful. I'm still thinking about it. A definite must if you're in the area
Tasty authentic menu, all made from scratch, friendly staff , great atmosphere, yummy desert & sake cocktails ???? ????
Lovely food, great cocktails . Smart cocktail bar downstairs!
Definitely worth checking out if you love dumplings !
The BBQ chicken was delicious and goes well with steamed rice
Very busy place with tasty food. Dumplings and pork belly were great!
They do pork belly right. The trout was awesome. Also cocktails !
Great food, cocktails and atmosphere!
My dream restaurant , classic dumplings as far as the eye can see...
Save room for desert !:)
Very tasty all round. Pork belly was excellent
Nice and friendly place. The Pork belly is amazing!
Great place, cool basement for drinks!
Pork belly , Cod & Squid ink dumpling
Get the sake sampler in the bar downstairs
Yum as. Busy. Bit expensive . But still yum
Prawn toast wow, potato dumplings - not what you would expect !!!
The Har Gau was splendid
Addictive dumplings and impeccable service .
Pork Belly
Awesome dumplings and sake ????
Dumplings are either very bland (prawn dumplings ) or are overpowered by a single flavour (very gingery siu mai & too much black pepper in the spinach cod dumpling ). The dishes need more R&D.
Best desert ever!
The food was good as ever but the service was terrible! No table water offered, drinks arrived after, er, 20 mins (had to ask twice!) and then forgot to tender the bill. Disappointing.
Vegetable dumplings
Friendly team , pretty average food. Drinks were nice though.
My second tip because when I went back this time, it was terrible! Cramped, inattentive service, salty and COLD food. We cancelled our dessert and left as soon as we could!
Excellent !
Cocktail bar in the basement of My Neighbours The Dumplings. Have a sake old fashioned while you wait for your table - Christine Røde
One of my favourite spots in Dalston. No nonsense eatery serving up momo and thalis. Everything they produce is delicious. - Hannah Parvaz
Definitely give the salty yolk custard buns a try, one of the best in London. - JESSICA
Sensational roast (very quick service) and a great selection of ales. The Kapow pale ale was a highlight. - Alex Gibson
Pub-ish bar and my favourite local place. Nice and quiet on weekdays, nice and crowded on the weekends. Maybe the only place to go in Lower Clapton? - Shmu
