Awesome dumplings at really cheap prices. They have a massive range but the best are the fried dumplings. They can get pretty busy on sat nights with the Uni students but people get in and out quickly.

If you want traditional Northen Chinese dumplings in Canberra, this is the closest you'll get. The dumplings are tasty and the prices reasonable, for Canberra. Service can be a bit slow and it's pretty cold inside if you're seated by the door. Still, it does deliver on dumplings and that's all I really want. (It does a lot of other Northen Chinese food too, but I'm most impressed the dumplings. The 'hand stretched noodles' just make me miss Sydney/China.)

Approximate cost: $13

Great dumplings and great prices! Most of the food is very traditional asian, so be careful what you order.

Great food, great prices, hearty, filling and just a bit special. I'm a huge fan of their comfy seats! Definitely check it out if you're in the mood for some warm dumplings on a cold winter's day.

The 4-stars rating on value is only for the pan-fried dumplings and braised minced pork meatball because the soup dumplings and soup noodles are a joke here.

Despite its name, Shanghai Dumplings (xiao long bao) are not the best offerings here. The braised meatball on rice is hearty and succulent, but their soup dumplings are thick-skinned and not very juicy. Noodles were unimpressive, but being on the edge of student accommodations, I suspect that quality of reviews is less of a concern for this establishment than quantity of patrons.

Approximate cost: $15

great value for money without any compromise on taste. Excellent for students as well given the close proximity to ANU. The Food was delicious and unbelievably cheap!
