Qin's Garden

Absolutely worth it. Best soup dumplings I have ever had- made fresh to order and you can tell the difference with the high quality. Don’t even get me started on how good the garlic/Chinese broccoli dish is… Whenever I am in town I make a point of coming here. It’s almost always busy, which should say everything already. Service flows quickly and tables open up regularly. Reservations recommended if more than two people. They could charge a lot more than they do for what they offer. I am leaving this review to support them, but part of me wants to keep this place a secret! Love the staff and this place!!!

The food was so delicious! Highly recommend especially on a rainy day if you want something comforting and warm. The dumplings both steamed and pan fried were super juicy and the perfect temperature when you eat them. The scallion noodles was also fragrant and delicious! Will come back here again!

Tucked away in Toronto’s Chinatown, Qin’s Garden is more than a restaurant — it’s a living archive of Chinese culinary heritage. For nearly seven years, they’ve brought the flavors of Wuxi, Jiangsu Province to the city, drawing on recipes that have been lovingly preserved and perfected for over 260 years. Each dish is a tribute to time-honored tradition. The soup dumplings are delicate works of art, filled with fragrant broth that speaks to generations of craftsmanship. The Wuxi-style ribs, slow-braised according to an 18th-century recipe, carry the richness of history in every bite. Even the potstickers, hot & sour soup, and sweet corn pancake highlight the balance, generosity, and cultural pride that define Wuxi cuisine. What makes Qin’s Garden truly special is its philosophy: “A Bite of Heritage. A Taste that Lingers.” Portions are generous, flavors are refined, and prices remain accessible — ensuring this heritage can be shared widely. Right now, you can enjoy their Soup Dumpling Tasting Set starting from $8.99, or visit on Sundays for their buy ribs, get Hot & Sour Soup free special. Qin’s Garden isn’t just a place to eat — it’s a chance to taste living history, carried from one generation to the next, now served in the heart of Toronto.

Had an amazing experience at Qin's Garden. Authentic chinese food that was so delicious with each and every bite. From their juicy soup dumplings and buns to their tender beef ribs made from a 260-year old recipe, this place is the spot. Owner was so kind and sweet not just with us, but with all the customer which we love to see. Interior is warm and welcoming and truly added to our experience.

I recently tried the xiaolongbao from this restaurant, and they were absolutely delicious. The wrappers were thin and delicate, yet strong enough to hold the rich, flavorful soup inside. Each dumpling was perfectly steamed, bursting with juicy broth and tender meat. I especially loved the balance of seasoning—it tasted fresh, warm, and comforting without being too salty. The dipping sauce paired really well and enhanced the overall flavor. If you enjoy authentic and satisfying dumplings, I highly recommend trying their xiaolongbao. It’s definitely a dish I would come back for again!

I first saw these soup dumplings in a famous food documentary back in China, and when I finally tried them, I was hooked right away. They use a four-generation family recipe, but unfortunately, the original shop in China closed during Covid. Never thought I’d find their overseas branch here in Canada—and wow, the taste is exactly the same! The soup dumplings are legit: super thin skin, packed with juicy meat, and full of rich broth you can actually sip. We also tried the broccoli fried with chicken，was really flavorful and well-cooked. So happy I found this place. Highly recommend!

Their soup dumplings were so tasty. Service was quick. They make by order so it takes some time for certain dishes. But so worth it as it was fresh and delicious! Will be back!
