Dumpling Monkey Restaurant in Glasgow

   Disappointing experience overall. The food was okay at best — nothing terrible, but nothing memorable either. The dumplings in particular were far too thick and doughy, which really took away from them. The biggest issue, however, was hygiene. All the servers were wearing blue gloves and used the same gloves to spray and wipe tables, then immediately serve food and handle plates without changing them. This was quite off-putting and made us uncomfortable throughout the meal. With better attention to food safety and some improvements to the dishes, this place could be much better, but as it stands it didn’t meet expectations.

   Food so good. Really cheap. Comes so fast. Does make you very thirsty (msg) but is sooooooo tasty. Amazing to share bc you can order so many things for such good value. The service is crazy bad lol. Be prepared for your feeling to be hurt. I still go bc everything else is amazing.

   My daughter recommended this place for a quick meal. We ordered lot's of differemt dishes and for me the stand out dish was the cucumber salad. Crunchy, spicy, tasty. I'm not joking it really was delicious, and to confirm, I'm not a vegan. All washed down with jasmine tea. Definitely be back for more.

   For the restaurant it wants to be it is pretty good. There are so many different meals to order and everything happens really fast. It is definitely not a restaurant for a long stay but if you want to eat a fast but tasty meal it is perfect. As soon as we entered we kind of felt the rush but it was fun. We had sweet and sour chicken and kung po duck with one portion of noodles. It was a good size for us both. We also had fried chicken dumplings which also tasted good but we never had dumplings before so we can't compare. The prices are pretty cheap that's also good. All in all it is a fine snack bar.

   The service sucks here. I ordered dumpling and mabo tofu in their lunch menu. I knew I ordered a cheap menu but I did not expect how they treat their costumer. Their dumpling taste is good, but the horrible service outweigh it by far. I also asked to have a small plate to put the sauce in but the waitress said “You can just put your sauce in that plate”. Real Great huh? About the food, the mabo tofu DID NOT have any tofu at all. I went to a number of chinese restaurant in my life, and this is the first time I saw a mabo tofu like this. They only put an eggplant and some pork mince in it!! For you who are considering going here, think twice brother Note : the food in the pic is how they look when it was served to me. I haven’t mixed it.

   As an ethnically Chinese student, the food is abysmal. Should’ve looked at the most recent reviews where apparently the food quality has dropped from what it was “originally.” Ordered (1) the ‘Special - Jiao Zi pot stickers’ which in spite of being fried tasted soggy and the skin was thick and honestly tasteless filling. Ordered (2) the Sichuan special mince pork noodles and you can see from the photos it’s a hot soggy tasteless mess. You know something is wrong when an Asian food noodle/dumpling outlet has tomato ketchup ready on the table. It’s not legit at all and frankly, disappointing. Despite paying 4.20 for the dumplings and 7.50 for the noodles, I felt like the biggest loser today and got totally scammed

   Dumplings are definitely the star of the show! Dan Dan noodles were rich, comforting and spicy. However it had a thick layer of oil on top Vegetable chow mein was a bit bland but the chili oil made a difference. All portions were huge and worth their price. Staff was quick to serve, friendly and aware of any Covid protocol. The restaurant has a great and intimate atmosphere.

   Extensive menu catering for everyone, very tasty food and lovely service! The beef with ginger and spring onion was saucy, tender and delicious. The Thai king prawns was also a great dish. The fried wontons are amazing! We really enjoyed our visit and would highly recommend this place for Chinese food.
