Ordered beef and rice which was listed as gluten free and cost 25chf. Im grateful for the call 1.5h after making the order to inform me the marinade is made with soy sauce and flour since that couldve have ruined my week. I took you up on your offer of fried rice with no beef in exchange for 5chf price reduction. So for 20chf i received boiled rice with oil and a single UNCOOKED, chopped carrot. Picture attached, my 20chf meal upon arrival. You guys are essentially robbing people blind at this stage. I have seen many of your review responses touting your "Authentic Chinese Cuisine™" and "Fresh Local Produce". This is disgraceful. The fact that you're located at the centre of Zürich, boast exorbitant prices and have a beautifully decorated establishment is beyond absurd. I strongly recommend you try even just a little harder. Perhaps look up the term self-respect. A shame to China, Zürich and humanity as a whole. If youre still open to having reviewers over to see your handmade dumpling making process (as you offered reviewer Benjamin) I would like to volunteer myself full time just so you stop doing this to people.

Dumplings are really good but very expensive. Even for Zurich, 15 CHF for 5 pieces is too much money. The service is friendly but unfortunately slow. We waited 15-20 minutes just for the drinks (water and tea). I wouldn't recommend the hot pot with beef at all. The spices were so intense that you couldn't enjoy it. After the 3rd spoonful you only feel anise and nothing more. I couldn't even eat half of it.

The restaurant is now in a new location. It is stylishly furnished and larger than the old place. Nevertheless, a reservation is recommended. The dumplings were very tasty. The only deduction I give is the tofu and vegetable dish. That was a bit bland and boring.

Atmosphere is great super cozy upstairs area and nice ambience for a date. Food: Good selection on offer but the food was pretty oily, ordered the soup and it was a little hotter than room temperature. The homemade noodles were good but general dish would’ve been better if it was hot. Would recommend the tofu dumplings of everything we had though. Awesome staff, super attentive and although it was our first time there instantly upon arriving they made us feel like frequent customers. With that being said food took longer than expected. Idea to the property: there is an empty cabinet in the top left corner of the restaurant, if you removed that cabinet you would give more spacing between the tables which would only improve the atmosphere as you would have a more private dinning experience.

Ambience: Friendly, and spacious. There's two floors, second floor is cosier and less bright. Food: Tried the vegetarian options, the tofu dumplings were really tasty. Also had the home made noodle soup which was good. Food was good, but not outstanding - giving 4 stars instead of 3 because the service was so good (see below). Service: The staff was awesome. From the moment we walked in till we left again they made us feel welcome and were very friendly, making easy conversation. Great for: Shared dishes type of dinner, group of people (downstairs) and more intimate date style upstairs.

For starters we had a mixed dumpling platter, each one was very tasty, and my duck in the main course also tasted really great. Our waitress was still brand new and didn't understand everything 100%, but that wasn't a bad thing at all because she was very kind and another waitress was always there quickly. Overall, a very great experience with the service and the culinary experience as well, again at any time!!!

A cozy restaurant with a pleasant selection of dishes. We were here with a group of eight people on a Friday evening. The food was ok and the staff was very friendly, but they sometimes had difficulty taking the order (both in German and English). Unfortunately it took a relatively long time until the food was served, even though the restaurant was only about half full. Unfortunately, most wooden chairs are not upholstered and quickly become uncomfortable.

Dumplings and portions are good. The rating is mainly based on the service. We were a table of 8 and had to wait for the food a long time and when ordered water for the table had to wait for it for a good 30 min because they needed to „wash the glasses“. Whilst the staff was super friendly and apologetic, it was not the service I’d expect for the pricepoint. We probably would have drunk and ate more as a group if the service was more speedy.

Simply not recommended. The portions are tiny and very expensive. Just as it is normal in Zurich, but there it is even more exaggerated. We had some dishes and they are certainly not identical to those in China. We know Chinese food directly from China and can judge it from experience. When we wanted to give the boss feedback and the waiter called her, she refused to speak to us. Someone who thinks everything is perfect... is incapable of criticism and is welcome to continue to receive bad reviews on the Internet. Because she is not interested in personal feedback.

Small but very good selection of dumplings. “The crispy duck” is also highly recommended. The only downside: the restaurant is served by 1 waiter and 1 chef, which makes the waiting time too long for me. Offer the customers something to nibble in the meantime and the waiting time becomes a time of enjoyment

Food tastes okay. Found the prices a bit overpriced for the location (no, I'm not a tourist, I live in Zurich and am familiar with the prices). 15 CHF for 5 small dumplings is simply too much. And then the place is always full and you have to agree to stay from 6 p.m. to 8 p.m. because after that the table is taken again. And just one service person for so many guests is a bit poor. If you want to eat very tasty dumplings, you should go to Tenz on Badenerstrasse (not far from Langstrasse).

There were three of us on a Friday evening. The seating is very tight and of course there was a lot going on. We had 4 different dumplings, which were great, and ordered the same ones again while we were eating. We had to wait more than an hour for this. And we had to remind the waiter twice. The dessert (bean buns and fried bananas) was also delicious. But afterwards we had to wait another 20 minutes from ordering the bill until we could pay. I hope they work on their service... it's a real shame because the food was really great.

Tried one of nearly every dumpling plus the Szechuan chicken and spare ribs. Portions are small and you will need to order more than you think in order to be full (with the corresponding increase in price). The food is good though; good dumplings for Zurich, clearly freshly made. The two Bao dumplings were my favorite. The service was slow - there were only two servers for a very busy restaurant - but they did their best and were quite friendly. I would go again. Still prefer Wesley’s though.

We at the soup dumplings and the duck for the main dish. The flavours overall were good, the ingredients good quality. The skins of the dumplings were too thick - too doughy. This diluted the taste of the soup and filling. The duck was drenched in overly salty Hoi sin sauce which masked the flavour of what we thought was good quality duck. He dessert menu did not seem overly appealing; in fact it felt like a bit of an afterthought. Given the attention to detail overall, a more varied selection would have been appreciated. Overall, the portions could be more generous for the price. The service was very charming and friendly.
