Juicy Dumplings on Chapel is a straight forward approach to dumplings. They make their own dumplings on site, so you can watch them prepare and then cook them, thus ensuring their freshness. The dumplings did not disappoint in size, quantity and quality. I ordered the pork dumplings noodle soup and the broth was very tasty. I only wish they had separated it from the noodles for my take-away order, as there was only half a bowl left by the time I got home. Upon adding some hot water, it still retained enough flavour to finish the dish. The egg noodles were perfectly cooked and I liked the authentic bok choy in the garlicy broth. While you may be able to find cheaper soup bowls in Chinatown, for $ 12 you will get a large serving of dumplings that lasted me for two meals. Service is anything but stellar. However, if you are seeking a quick, satisfying meal, this place will do the trick. The menu is large and hits on all the essential Chinese dishes in a casual setting.

If you’re looking for quick & tasty, Juicy Dumplings is the place for you! I always get the chicken & prawn steamed dumplings and my partner like to get fried. The décor isn’t the best but if you are happy to just fill your belly with tasty treats this place is okay.

Had a dinner there yesterday. The dim sums a very nice. Had a combination one and vegetable one. Very good quality. The only issue I had was with delivery time I gave waited for almost 30 minutes and needed to remind them about my order. The other thing that made the visit less was a very strong smell of the cooking, I think they have a good product need to work on the service and environment one.

I have been to many places and eat so many dumplings~ honestly this restaurant is not that great. Dumpling were small and too expensive for the size of the portion. Would not recommended this place.

You know what? This place is actually quite good. I have quite high dumpling standards from many criteria that has devolved after some huge disappointments, and some really good place like Hutong and Shandong mama. It’s generally always very busy in here, and on weekends usually full of groups, so scoring a table is quite the challenge indeed. Nevertheless, the result is quite tasty sharing food. Things are kept to western tastes here, but the pan fried dumplings are great, as are the chilli oil. They have appetising fillings and have lost the obsession for pork and prawn everything. The steamed buns are good, and the Sambal fried nice is very nice. This is the place to go to order a big bunch of food and share it around well. Recommend as one of the better dumpling places in the immediate area and surrounds.

If you are in this neck of the woods and craving dumplings then this is the place to go! I tried the chilli oil beef dumplings, the pan fried pork dumplings and the beef soup dumplings. All of which were delicious! The have people making your dumplings fresh in the front window of the store, and I felt that the person serving me had a cute voice! Try this place you won’t regret it!
