  Honestly the dumplings here are so worth it, especially their signature old-style pork dumplings, the skin is super thin and the filling is packed with shrimp, seriously bursting with flavor. The mackerel and chive dumplings were also really good, the combo of chive and mackerel is kinda unique and has so much going on texture-wise. They also give you free pickled garlic on the side, and wow that garlic with the dumplings? So good, super appetizing. The place was clean and tidy, had that classic old Beijing vibe, felt really cozy. Service was warm and friendly too, and our food came out pretty quick.
