Hutong Dumpling Bar

Best dumplings in all of Melbourne, must try their xaoi long bao and all of their dumplings, staff is very friendly and accommodating

I used to come here a lot in the past before all the other Xiao long Bao restaurants opened. Visited again recently and was quite disappointed. They seem to have stagnated with their food and the standards have dropped. I mean the Xiao Long Bao isn’t bad here but with the other options available around town now so it is quite competitive. I hope the food improves!

Tried this place for the first time... wow. Chilli wontons were incredible!

Great xiao long bao. Great stuff.

Great food. Great service

I used to come here sometimes when i lived in tbe city. Their Xiao long bao were excellent and other dumplings were good. But today (wednesday) i found the food was not as good. The pastry was so thick in all dumplings. And xiaolongbao skin was thick and dry. The turnip pastry was thick too. Duck dumpling has very little filling covered in thick skin. I hope this quality can be rectified.

I don't know if the chef was having a bad day when we visited but we did not enjoy any of the dishes we ordered. The pan fried dumplings were still pale and soft at the bottom, and the skin was thick and too doughy. The chive pancake was more of a deep fried donut with undercooked dough inside, instead of a nice flat crispy pancake that I was expecting. The wontons in chilli oil was fine but the filling could have been seasoned better. I enjoyed the chrysanthemum tea but everything else was mediocre to disappointing. I've seen other reviews raving about the dumplings here but to be honest there are many other restaurants in the vicinity superior to this. I'll leave two stars for the acceptable service but shall not be returning.

Top dumplings with very clear flavours. Great produce to create great dishes. Highly recommend

Perfect place to stop for some outstanding dumplings. Friendly service, great atmosphere, clean and amazing taste! The best I’ve been to. Make sure you check this out.

Amazzzzing service and food...these guys nailed both! Highly recommend the eggplant clay pot & garlic bean shoot 🤤
