The restaurant has a different space for the preparation of gluten free dumplings. The place is safe for coeliacs! They only say the kitchen pays large use of flour, so the space can’t be 100% gluten free

Absolutely delicious dumplings and most fo the enu is available as gluten free. We tried the classic platter, the meat platter amd the GF platter. My personal favorites were the duck and the pork dumplings. They also do dessert dumplings again also available as GF so we had to try those and the pecan ones were my favorite, the apple pie and the Nutella were also very good but the pecan was just so good. Staff very friendly and helpful. Prices are pretty good and for food excellent so I will be back. Definitely recommend for anyone after dumplings and is gluten intolerant.

Very friendly staff, amazing food! Perfect for coeliacs. We loved their cucumber salad, very balanced taste with just the right amount of spicy. The beef dumplings were also very nice. The place looked cool as well, decorated with tons of creative dumplings.

Great gluten free options However, if you can eat gluten - the dumplings are a bit overpriced compared to dim sum restaurants, and not quite as good. Thick dumpling batter but tasty fillings. The coaster drawing was cute and fun.

Super nice place to get some food. Went for lunch meal deal which was amazing value and very tasty. Highly recommend the mushroom and truffle. It’s off the beaten track even in central London size, which meant spot to get away from all the people. Staff were incredible nice and attentive. Really detailed gluten free menu as well !!!

Amazing gluten free dumplings. Would very much recommend this place for celiac people. My favourites were the curry chicken ones and the mushrooms ones. The waitress was super nice as well, we didn’t have a reservation and she found us a table for two.

Such a cute little spot in soho! As a celiac who struggles to find gluten free Asian food, I know I had to try this spot when I was in London! The staff were super friendly and helpful with any questions I had regarding the menu and the food’s preparation. I got the gluten free chicken and pork dumplings, both were so tasty! And the apple dessert dumplings! I wish I had ordered the dumpling dessert platter to try more of the sweet dumpling offerings. Everything was very affordable as well. I will definitely be back to this spot next time I’m in town!

Booking in advance is a good idea as this is a very small restaurant. We'd been to their other place before and stopped by for a quick bite. The restaurant is quite cozy, and while I didn't get to see how many seats are downstairs, it's definitely an intimate setting. My partner is gluten-free, and this place is a great option for people with that dietary need. We had the gluten-free dumplings, and they were just as good as, if not better than, regular dumplings I've had. It's a shame that there's an extra charge for the gluten-free option since it's an allergy you can't control, but I do understand that the ingredients are more expensive. We had the satay chicken, pork, and spring roll options Overall, I'd go back. The service is great and the food is consistently tasty. You know exactly what you're getting, and it's a very good experience. Service was also included to the bill.
