noodle express

thumbs up!. maybe not the "best dimsum in winnipeg" but definitely our top choice for this price point. like most homey asian restaurants, as long as it's not crucial for you that the servers ask: "how is everything tasting? is there's anything else i can get for you?" and you care more about them delivering good food then you've come to the right place. english is not the staff's first language but i have never seen anyone experience difficulties communicating with them, besides, that just means you're getting real authentic flavours.

my favorite place to get dim sum. everything i have tried has been delicious. yum!

review from sum gal. our family has been coming here for years now. it has always reminded me of grandma's kitchen. alright, maybe not my grandma's, but perhaps someone else's :-) what i mean is, the atmosphere is completely without pretense. relaxed.
there are ever so many selections. take advantage of happy-hour to experiment. this is how we have found some of our favourite foods: deep-fried squid (no one does it better, imo), chicken feet, deep-fried chinese perogies, chicken with steamed rice, dumplings (all types except the premium. that one is crunchy, offered with mayo. weird).
it's not often that someone in the family will say "ick", but when it does happen, another member is only too happy it gobble it up! this is the advantage of the huge selection.
understand that different cooks will have their own style of a particular dish. this isn't necessarily a bad thing. i've personally enjoyed the different takes of hot and sour soup, but have not always appreciated a different version of beef-ball.
affordable.

always a regular with my family. i always love it here. their mango pudding is my favourite it's always so smooth and creamy, not grainy like other places. their deep fried salad shrimp dim sum is like nothing i've ever eaten before, definitely worth the try (don't forget to dip it in the mayo)! the staff is always super nice to us and we always come back for more. i admit it is more of a self serve in terms of drinks (i.e. you have to get your own water after the initial one they pour) but considering everything else they serve tastes good i'm willing to do it. their soup is great and very very large so we recommend not ordering much else unless you know 100% that you're super hungry. their regular menu tastes great as well, if you order rice i recommend just going for the deluxe fried rice. i hope the owners have lots of success with this one and the other one they just got!

happy hour. bright, busy, clean, crowded, and no-frills. dishes come out hot and quick.

regulars, never disappointed with food. fave dishes- b03 beef w/noodles, vietnamese spring rolls, eggplant, shrimp with coriander, deluxe seafood, deep fried shrimp, bean curd are all musts for our family! always hot n steamy, never disappointed.

my favourite dimsum restaurant. i’ve tried almost every dimsum restaurant in the city, and been to other dimsum restaurants in other cities, and nothing beats this place! it might not be the fanciest restaurant, but it’s been there for years! some dimsum restaurants have closed, but they’re still here. they even took over the restaurant that closed right across them! it’s all about the food quality, their dimsum never cheaped out on quality. the siomai for example, has never downgraded, it’s still stacked with pork, unlike other dimsum places where they add all sorts of stuff like mushrooms and onion and green peas on their siomai to make it look bigger, but the content is cheaper!

you can never beat their prices here too. you might not pay for the ambience of the restaurant, but you get the worth and value of your money from the food!

i also like their egg noodle soup variety.

and most of all, the people are friendly and nice. some dimsum restaurants have very rude staff. but this family that owns this restaurant are very down to earth! it’s a winnipeg gem!

hole in the wall, need key to access washroom outside and down the hall. and excellent dim sum, duck and beef rice noodles! as a chinese, totally what i expect from a place that knows how to cook! service is inadequate if you don't speak cantonese. great classic chinatown experience. parking is challenging.

go here if you want the best tasting dim sum that made fresh to order! this place is a hidden gem.

the traditional dim sum comes through with carts but typically those foods aren't fresh and just sit there until someone picks it.

i always go here and just find other places don't match up including the ones in the area. i've also been to vancouver and toronto and it's not the same. especially their eggplant and stuff green peppers.

they have the best fried rice, sweet and sour soups and noodle soups. everything is cooked to perfection.

the service is fast and efficient. the ladies are so sweet here!

amazing chinese food. this place has zero ambiance its super casual. super cheap prices and good food. dim sum is awesome and their bowls of noodle soup are the perfect lunch. 6-9$ big bowl you cant go wrong. don't come if you don't like authentic chinese food.

one of our favourite dimsum restaurants in the city. decent price, good service, dimsum taste a bit better than dimsum garden. we spent $78 for 2 at kumkoon but it is only haft the price at noodle express.

stopped by around 3pm and there were plenty of seats. service was good and quick. really enjoyed the pan-fried pork dumpling. will definitely come back!

been here a few times and have tried a large variety of their menu. don't be fooled by the name of the restaurant, the noodles here are horrible. but aside from that everything else is decent. love the deep fried shrimp dumplings and the custard buns are a great dessert. the rice dishes aren't bad either. good dim sum. food is fairly priced

my favourite place for dim sum whenever i'm back in winnipeg. my favourites are the custard pineapple buns and egg tarts...have not found any place in vancouver that compares. looking forward to eating a lot on my next visit.

excellent! as others have posted, the place is fast, friendly and the food is delicious. the only caveat would be you have to take a key and go out in the hall to use the washroom. i will definitely be frequenting this restaurant.
