Dumpling Drop

Very cute small dumpling shop. Can even take away frozen to make later.

Have a bar counter , local beer & wine and we were Happy Hour!

It really was SO tasty- the Chili sauce had just the right amount of kick!

Hace vegan dumplings as well!

Recommend the place for it's vibe and inviting space. The service is a bit slow and the food is only alright. I'd categorize this place as a small bites place. You won't be full (unless you order a bunch of small plates). Last time I was here I got their fried dumplings and it was overdone by a bit the bottoms were a little burnt.

Based on the Yelp reviews, I wanted to try this place. Had we not just enjoyed some terrific Korean Fried Chicken just before I would have been tempted to order more.

But on a tip from a customer, we got the special of 5 dumplings and a small glass of Sapporo for $10 C. When you factor in the exchange rate, that's $7.50! Totally reasonable for a tasty snack.

I wouldn't say the dumplings were to die for. I'm not used to deep fried ones. They were hot and crispy, though, and arrived just about instantly. Super hot! They were a little awkward to eat because of their 'fried ball' shape but they were even harder to eat! They came with this super flavorful chili sauce that I couldn't get enough of, but it did make this little buggers tough to pick up.

I didn't find the pork filling to be anything special. Wasn't bad but wasn't spectacular. They also had Lemongrass chicken available, but since we only did one order, we didn't try those.

I think, if I come back, I'm going to grab some of the frozen ones to cook up on the boat. And you can be sure I'll try multiple flavors and make sure there's plenty of chili sauce!

Decided to stop in here to grab a quick bite while exploring around Victoria. I'm glad we did, they had a great special that was dumplings and a beer and it was a warm day. We got the order of pork belly dumplings and the beer. I haven't really had dumplings like this before but my wife had, so I was pretty excited. This place didn't disappoint. The chili oil that was on these and gave them a pleasant kick. They were nice and full and cooked so nicely. They held their shape and they didn't get soggy. The filling was delicious and juicy. It was a great little shop with friendly people and a great special. I wish we could have bought some of the dumplings to take back with us, but we didn't have a cooler.

It was our first visit to Dumpling Drop. The dumplings and chilli sauce were delicious. We ordered vegan dumplings. Casual and comfortable ambiance. We weren't expecting the dumplings to be fried. The dumplings were crisp and full of delicious tastes. They also sold some of their frozen dumplings to go.'This restaurant is ideal for a fast bite. The hostess at the register was pleasant, provided great service and served our meals quickly. Highly recommend Dumpling Drop. We shall be back!

I wanted to like this place so much more .. fried dumplings were so over cooked, the Bao was good (chicken was a little dry but bun and slaw was tasty) and sake was yummy too! Wouldn't order the dumplings again though.
Great, quick service for dine in

Heard about this place through social media so I really didn't know what to expect. I was pleasantly surprised as to how good the food was. They had an issue with some of their equipment so we couldn't try their Bao's but the dumplings and sides that we tried were delicious! If you're in Victoria, BC and want to grab a quick bite for lunch, Dumpling Drop is your spot!

Enjoyed our meal here! Great fried chicken bao bun. And the dumplings are so tasty! Definitely worth stopping by the Dumpling Drop.

My girlfriend and I were staying down the street and came across this spot in Chinatown across from Market Square. It's pretty small with maybe three tables and bar seating. In total I'd say the restaurant can seat around 20 people max.

We ordered the Vegan Dumplings and Pork Dumplings. Both orders were actually not what I expected. I'm used to having steam or pan fried dumplings. These seemed almost deep friend since the wrap was fully crisp like a deep friend Wonton. Still good though and I'd order them again. Both came in like a spicy hoisin/peanut sauce. Overall it's worth a stopover for a quick bite. Their apparel is really cool and I would have bought something if there wasn't any labelling on the back. I just wanted something that said Dumpling Drop in the chest.

Great dumplings, I like crunchy food so the texture is awesome. Can be a bit spicy. I wish they carried the chicken more often, they seem to not have it the few times I've been there.
