Restaurant Yi Pin Xiang

Quality price the food isn't bad but it's not as good as before. That's why I'm disappointed. A few years back, it was one of my go spot. The portions are generous, but the dumplings are my biggest disappointment. The skin of the dumplings were too thick and the meat had no flavor. I could not distinguish which one was beef, lamb or pork.

Decent Sunday evening dining experience. Homemade noodles were great, the smoked tofu & cucumber salad was ok, the steamed dumplings were a bit too thick yet ok, the skewed squid was meh... Decor and hygiene can be improved, and BYOB is a huge pro. Will be back one day to try more stuff.

I had come here in order to try a different dumpling place than my usual one in downtown Montreal. I was a but disappointed with the food I got. The variety of dumpling choices is nice in my opinion and the roasted sesame oil that is provided for dipping was a nice chnage from regular dumpling restaurants. However, even though the menu mentions steamed dumplings, they look and feel more like boiled ones (there is a difference). I had ordered the pork, cabbage and shrimp dumplings and they were good, but the wrapper was too thick and not much broth was inside the dumpling. I also tried the beef fried rice, but the fried was more implying stirfry instead of typical fried rice. It wasn't bad though. Overall, not a bad place but there are better dumpling places around.

Wanted to try this dumpling restaurant for a while and had some take out. Had the shrimp and coriander dumpling and the beef and leek. Very good taste and their soya sauce with homemade chilli oil definitely make it way better!

I ordered from this restaurant since I was with friends and we wanted to eat dumplings. We ordered 4 types of dumplings. They gave us a good recommendation of which one should be fried and which one should be steamed. It was pretty on point. Also, for the price payed, it was pretty good quality and quantity. I definitely would recommend this restaurant for dumplings. It will be my go to place from now on.

Average dumplings, average service. We ordered an array of dumplings from their selection which tasted fine for the most part buy a few of them were tasteless. You'd expect more from a restaurant specializing in dumplings.

One of my favourite dumplings restaurant. I never get the chance to take a picture of it because I’m always impatient to eat them. Our office is near by so be order from here most of the time to pick it up and eat it as a team lunch. Very berry great rewards. They, unfortunately use way too much styrofoam to pack everything up. If they can put the pickup order in plastic containers, so at least we can recycle them. It will be a plus.

Tasty dumplings, I recommend pork, shrimp and Chinese cabbage. Dumplings are best eaten right away otherwise they tend to stick together.

I'm happy to find a dumpling place in this part of town. They are not open to dine in. I walked in and ordered in their lobby. I was asked to wait outside. The wait seemed a little long for a Wednesday afternoon. They have many choices for fillings. You can choose steamed or pan fried. They're both the same price but you get fewer of the pan fried vs the steamed. We enjoyed them but only once at home. They cooled off and I tried to pan fry them to reheat. I find them more expensive than downtown and I prefer to eat them there. You choose.

Absolutely a gem. I am still missing my steamed beef and chives dumplings and the smoked tofu skewer. Honestly, I have never heard of this restaurant until my girlfriend's coworker had some delivered. I'm glad that I found it. The service is great even though it seems that they only have two people running the show in the frontline. They were very courteous and patient on explaining on the dishes and the ingredients (I have allergies, my gf is vegan). We ended up with some appetizers of mustard greens and green beans with sweet and sour potato shreds. Great and did not expect to love them that much! Then, we had fried tofu mushroom cabbage dumplings and steamed beef chive dumplings. They were so good that I didn't really need to dump them in a sauce of soy, chili oil and vinegar. We then had handmade vegetable stir fry noodle dish. It was so peppery just how I remember eating them back at home how my parents made them. We ended the night with a pair of smoked bbq tofu skewers. Low key, or high key, they were the MVP of the show. We obviously ordered too much but fret not, they have doggy bags so we took the leftovers to go. We will be back and we hope you will give them a visit as soon as you can! PS: It's a BYOW, so feel free to bring a nice wine. There's a SAQ down the street near Metro Côte-Vertu. I think it closed at 10pm daily.

Excellent dumplings and noodle soups. From the states but will be back here next time I'm in Montreal.

Found this ppace due to google reviews. They are known for their dumplings, and despite the poor presentation, they were delicious! The general Tso's chicken is mostly chicken with little batter, which is great. The chicken fried rice was all flavour as well, but veggies were overcooked and mushy.

What a pleasant surprise in Montreal. One of the best dumplings I've had in North America! Extremely thin wrappers with great chewy texture, with a generous amount of filling that is also subtly flavored. We ordered the shrimp&chives&egg dumplings and lamb&cilantro pan fried dumplings. I personally like the traditional dumplings than the pan fried ones. We also ordered the lamb skewers which are more flavorful and less greasy than the Chinese BBQ place in Chinatown, Montreal. It is highly recommended!

We came in for a quick bite before trying other restos in the area. The resto was quiet but we got quick service and food order didn't take long. So that was nice! We went with their lamb skewers and lamb & coriander dumplings. The Lamb skewers were delicious, definitely worth trying again! The steamed lamb & coriander dumplings were just OK as it lacked flavor and was dry? It was a real step down compared to the skewers to say it mildly. Experience is more of a 3/5 rounded down but I'd come back and perhaps I'll bump up my ratings when I revisit. I recommend trying.

Excellent find thx to yelp. Now i dont need to drive down town any more for my dumpking fix. The only thibg i was not cra,y about was the lamb brocette as it was at times so fatty i had to spit it out. This gave them the 4 stars. Their chilly on the other hand was amazing. You can tell by the smell how good it is. Even the cold beef was giod which i normally don't like. I will be back.

Very good food, nothing to complain. My friend and I ordered two kinds of dumplings and one veggie pot. Turns out all to be delicious, except for it gets cold a little fast because of the weather. Bonus is that you can bring your own wine!!!!! Five star.

I came here last night with some friends. We ordered 2 different types of dumplings (each comes with 16!), a black bean noodle dish, spicy beef stone pot, and an order of fried chicken. The food itself was really good. The one dish that I would definitely get again was that spicy beef stone stone pot. Absolutely delicious. I would add the prices are definitely reasonable. So why the 3 stars? The service. We had to wait a while until we ordered. And after we got our food, we honestly felt ignored. We even wanted to order some tea and desserts. After 15 minutes of waiting for someone to come, we gave up and walked to the cash to pay. It's a shame...they could have made more money.

YO REVIEW UPDATE I LOVE DUMPLINGS Solid DUMPLINGS in this area close to my office so I come often. The pork and Chinese cabbage dumplings and the lamb and green onion are both favorites. Soir & chilli soup isn't quite hot n sour but is still decent. Good prices and they often play a mouth watering Chinese food television show on their tv which really makes you want to visit China!!!

We were with a party of two. When we ordered our meal I got mine first after 15 minutes. After another 10 minutes the dumplings came for the both of us (16 on a plate, that's nice) and after another 10 minutes my boyfriends food came. I was already finished with my meal. But that is not the biggest problem, There was no AC and while we were waiting for our food a homeless person came in begging for money at the tables and they didn't send him out right away!!! A star for the really good food and a star for great prices

We eat here often and the food never seems to disappoint. We enjoy eating their dumplings, noodles, rice, appetizers and snacks. The food tastes great and the price is great considering what you get for it. We've ordered it on a few occasions for events at home and dumplings and appetizers always seem to be a crowd pleaser! Would definitely recommend!

Was looking for a dumpling place for a quick jaunt through Montreal and stopped here. With all the construction it was tougher to find than I thought but the food was quite good. I really enjoyed the dumplings (I got the pork and shrimp) though I thought the chicken brochette was a little on the oily side. I still liked the food and you got quite a bit for the price so it was a good value. A different style of dumpling so that was interesting. Service was quite good.

I've been to A LOT of dumpling restaurants in Toronto, and when I Was getting my poutine we drove by and my mom saw dumplings! So we stopped..... Can I tell you, this place is AMAZING! Everything is made fresh, so have some patience ok this isn't your manchu-wok, szechuan szechuan buffet to go. You can see the ladies in the back preparing your dumplings and it was WORTH the wait. Probably the best dumplings I've had outside of Asia... I wanted to get more but I stayed too far away. Fantastic food!

AC broken, service too slow, won't offer me a cup of tea if I don't ask. And they pour me a tea with boiling water. They told me the normal temperature tea is only for big tables not for me. Waited 20mins in 30 degree room temperature, everyone was sweaty. The waitress doesn't know the AC was broken and she said she's gonna close the door so we will be fine! Their smart pos machine won't allow me to choose "no tips" so I had to pay cash. Haven't been so angry to a restaurant in a while. When I complained at the cashier they just kept saying "ok ok", no apology. When you take your customer for granted, you've got a big trouble.

My boyfriend and his family are from Hong Kong so they usually know where to find good dumplings. This is their go-to place so I've been many times with them and it is never disappointing. I give 5 stars for the food because I have no idea if their customer is good or not ; I've never ordered myself!

The food is great, but the customer service is unnaceptable. Dont ever take their delivery serive. It is extremely slow. Almost always over one hour. One time it arrived in 2 hours.

The food was amazing!!! My friend and i split a soup and dumplings! At first we were the two customers but have 30minutes the place was filled! It was soo tasty 10/10 would recommend! Plus the price is reasonable!

Good dumplings! Friendly services! Nothing else to add. Good place to be with friends and family! You can bring your own wine there.

The service was really bad, waited a lot before getting our food. The server never make sure we were okay, We had to ask him for water when he walked by (or else he totally ignored us). We didn't get our plates in the same time (we shared my plate because at this point we weren't even sure if he was going to come back). The guy looked like we were bothering him and we felt unwelcome

Yummy yummy in my tummy. Specially with the super spicy sauce. Really nice food and great service.

Best dumplings I ever had!!! The noodles and fried rice are deliciously different. Also, reasonably priced and cozy atmosphere.

Yi Ping offers authentic Northern Chinese dumplings & noodles, as well as other lesser known regional dishes. We either go or take out about once/week. I have consistently enjoyed the Yi Ping shrimp/chicken/mushrooms dumplings (only fried) as well as different boiled and fried dumplings, especially the lamb/coriander. Don't overlook the outstanding hand pulled noodles; our favourite being the noodles with beef (could eat just that) Quite unique was the potato app, great textures & flavour, unusual but in a yummy way. The owner & his wife are super nice & friendly. When I went to pick up my order & asked about the vinegar brand they provide on their tables, he gave me a bottle!

For an inexpensive Chinese restaurant, this place was very yummy and satisfied my dumpling craving. The service was really good. The waitress was very polite. The food was delicious and the price was even better(around 15-20 dumplings for approximately 8.50$ depending on what fillings you chose). My only complaint is that the dumplings had very little filling. I think if they were more generous with the filling I would of given this place 5 stars. Don't get me wrong the dumplings were delicious, just lacking some filling. But other than that, no complaints. Also this restaurant is located in a nice area and they even have a terrasse to eat outside which is always fun for the summer.

These are the very best dumplings I've tasted in Montreal. They have the special fried ones (long - shaped a bit like spring rolls) and the regular ones that you can have boiled or fried (for $1.50 more). The dumplings come in beef, chicken, lamb, seafood, pork and vegetarian stuffings with mushrooms, chives, cabbage and other ingredients that can be combined. My favorites are the chicken and shrimp, lamb and coriander as well as the pork and chive ones. All are tastier when fried imho. The regular dumplings have just the right amount of liquid in them (no broth in the special fried ones). They offer the regular dipping sauces (vinegar, chili oil, sriracha, soya sauce). Prices vary from $6.99 (pork and cabbage) to $11.49 (fish+shrimps) for 16 non fried dumplings. I could stop there because the dumplings are reason enough to come from far to this restaurant. However you should also know about their home-made Donbei noodle soups ($7.99 for a very large bowl). I had the beef one and the broth was rich and flavorful. The many pieces of beef in the soup had also been marinated as they were an explosion of flavors in my mouth. The noodles were just perfect and very satisfying. They also have rice dishes and a few appetizers. I loved the sweet&sour (and spicy) potato one I tried. The restaurant decor is simple. You can see the chefs cooking in the back through a large window. The service was very friendly although a bit slow. I will return many many times I am certain. I just gave myself a craving for their dumplings while writing this.

Delicious dumplings! Fried or steamed are great. Their veggie salad is flavorful and spicy. All at a great price!

As an American visiting/living in beautiful Montréal and trying to find a good Chinese food in St.-Laurent area, I was disappointed in the choices and taste. Nothing to do with locale/service...but everything to do with the lack of flavor and choices in the menu. Soup was pretty good (get the hot and sour) but rest of the cuisine was very greasy and until I put 3 cups of chili peppers, I could not taste anything. I normally have very little chili on my Chinese food but this place needed more. Then the food was too hot to eat. Basically, don't read the local reviews if you are not from here. Food is bland and not as healthy as advertised by some of the locals.

Great fresh(!) dumplings at a very affordable price. The restaurant is clean and the service is very attentive without being intrusive. This is primarily a dumpling house but the wonton soup and the noodles were also very good.

Great dumplings! These and Qing Hua are some of the best in Montreal. Order in advance if you go there in a group.

This place is a must-go for any true Chinese food lovers. With one bite, you can tell the difference between Yipin's dumplings and others. The dumplings are made fresh on spot when you order them. It takes less than 10 minutes to get them, hot and steamy, in front of you! The boiled (they don't steam them there) dumplings are full of juicy filling with flavours that explodes in your mouth as you sink your teeth in. Don't take them out! Eat it when they just came out of the pot! As for appetizers, i strongly suggest their potato salad, cucumber salad and home-made salad. You get a rather large portion for 2.99. Don't be closefisted-share with a friend ;) Their special fried dumplings are also worth a try. They clam to be the only one making them (kotiers) in Montreal. They are bigger and longer than your normal chubby dumplings and are open-ended. Watch out for extra crispiness and ravenousness!

They can't handle a lazy Monday night. I shudder to think what's it's like on Fridays... Food is not bad but be prepared to wait an insane amount of time. This is DUMPLINGS, FFS. Nothing fancy or complicated.

never buy their coconut ice bar, which cost 5dollars but taste like a iced sugar water , lmfao ~
