    The 8 course vegan taster menu is a must try

    A very basic Ramen, no seasoning and very litte beef and vegetables. The broth was to thin and had not been cooked long enough to be called Ramen. The restaurant is very clean and has a good location though. A bit pricy considering the quality.

    Went there for lunch, very attentive service, good lunch menu with a variety of dim sum. I had 6 different dim sum, all of them very tasty and good quality. The quality/price is very good. Also got a discount because of the online booking.

    Very tasty food. We were there for the Yum Cha. Unfortunately they only have 3 vegan dumplings, one noodle dish and one type of spring rolls. But everything was very tasty. And we were able to get the vegan dishes served separate from the meat dishes. The Oolong tea was good as well. Waipo is a but more pricey than other places to eat Dim Sum, but the quality is great and it’s worth the money.

    Not many dimsum options in central Stockholm, so it’s good to have the yumcha menu here, available daily until 1600. Chasiu was not as expected, it was more like soft braised pork. Great flavours from the century egg pork congee, but the portion was relatively small. The deep-fried wu gok and ham sui gok were standout favourites. Steamed options like xiaolongbao were ok, good standard comfort bites. Noodle dishes were well fried with wok hei. Onto desserts, we were pleasantly surprised by how delicious the egg tarts were. The custard was almost molten, and the pastry was fluffy and hot.

    Such a lovely restaurant, never disappoints. Great cocktails and amazing food. Especially the dumplings are to die for! Highly recommend the mushroom & truffle dumplings. The tapas menu is creative and allows you to taste several amazing dishes. Friendly and helpful waiting staff, nice decor, okay location.

    A magical journey for the tongue We ordered the tasting menu, in addition to two extra dishes. Indeed the tasting menu was tasty. Each dish was like foreplay, creating a new craving after each dish. We just wanted more of what we just ate. Even the soy sauce was delicious - It was so delicious that we ordered more soy sauce just to drink it as is. After each dish, I was crying because we finished the food and I wanted more. And the dim sum was freaking amazing - The best dim sum I ever eaten. I don’t usually give the magical number to anyone, but this is something else. This was really really 5 stars. You deserve it Waipo. A big plus is the environmentally-friendly urinal. The sink is connected to the head of the urinal, so when you wash your hands the water goes down to the urinal which recreates a “flush”. This saves a lot of water - Each flush uses about 3-6 liter of water, and a normal water flow through the tap uses about 5.7 liter of water per minute. This means that installing this kind of urinal saves up to 3-6 liter of water per person. Ecovadis would be proud.

    Nice Asian food. If you are craving for some dumplings, it’s the place. We had dumplings, bao buns and everything was nice. Ambience is chic and subtle.

    My new fave place in Stockholm! Ambiance and the food was top notch. Melted in my mouth🤌🏻💕

  • 4/5 Swapnil S. 2 months ago on Google • 33 reviews New
    Great! Very good taste for all dishes ordered. Good vegan/vegetarian options available. Good ambiance. Definitely one of the best Chinese (fusion) restaurants I've been to in Stockholm. My only complaint is that the portion sizes were a bit small for the prize.

  • 3/5 Ben G. 2 months ago on Google • 27 reviews New
    Pretty good food, but not blown away by anything. The service was abysmally slow: the tasting menu took 2 hours and 20 minutes and we left before dessert because we couldn’t take it anymore. By the time we left, they’d turned the music up to disco levels and were turning off lights to try to get people to leave. We gladly would have but we were still waiting for our food two hours later! The staff were all very nice, just understaffed it seems.

    This was the second time I visited with my husband the restaurant. We came again based on our previous positive dinner experience. This time we went for lunch because the website says it serves lunch a la carte, however we could order just yum cha. Nonetheless, we ordered 6 dishes. They all came at different times, with long waiting times in between. The pork dish arrived first and the rice last, by that time the pork was cold. The menu is overall misleading, the portions are smaller or you just get fewer pieces than what they advertise. But I think the most appalling was the behavior or the male waiter and bartender. The bartender was very rude towards my husband when he approached him with a question. He blatantly ignored him and walked away, while the server avoided us when trying to place the order and order more. I have to mention that the girl that took over serving us she was very attentive and proactive. She was the one that expedited the delivery of all dishes. I just cannot recommend this place. There are other places that offer better value for the money.

    I like the idea of dumplings served in smaller portions so that you can try various kinds. Also love that the dumplings are served in bamboo steamer. But the dumplings were of similar kinds. Not to varying experience. (Many of the dumplings were similar to the one you can get in Pong buffet) The food was ordered throuh phone, which felt weird for a restaurant with a bit luxurious vibe. Even though this place is in mood galleria, the restaurant feels like a separate place, which was nice.

    Delicious Asian food. Ordered fried prawns, chicken dumplings, shrimp dumplings, chicken and mushrooms fried rice.

  • 3/5 Sheng L. 9 months ago on Google
    Not a traditional asia food place. It's a place with European and Asia mixed experiences. Food portions is a bit small. The taste is okay, but it can be better. The shrimp dish was not used real shrimp. The environment and service were great.

  • 5/5 Edouard D. 1 year ago on Google
    Incredible asian restaurant with a pretty nice menu (355 KR) where you'll get a dumpling, a main meal, a dessert and a black tea. Everything was delicious and full of flavours. There are some nice vegan and vegetarian options, with some decent proteins. Overall, we had an amazing time.

    Best Cantonese dumplings that I had for a long time.

  • 3/5 Jordan P. 1 year ago on Google
    The decor is beautiful and the servers are friendly, and there's even outdoor seating available. However, the main course menu is unique and very limited, so if you're looking for a specific entree, you may be disappointed. We had the minced meat dumplings and stir fried chicken appetizers.

  • 5/5 Mrinal P. 1 year ago on Google
    Awesome dumpling brunch option during the weekend. Tried multiple options and the chicken n truffle & sticky rice ones stood out along with spring roll. The staff is nice, though couldn't help with recommendations, other than that highly recommended...!!

  • 4/5 m. k. 2 years ago on Google
    The vegan rice-noodles were very good, as well as the roasted duck. We also tasted the gluten-free dumplings and I *LOVED* them! No complaints about the food at all. Great experience!

  • 5/5 Andy B. 2 years ago on Google
    Wanted to test their brunch menu so went there on Sunday. Place was empty, which was a bit suspicious but strated getting packed around 12.30. Ordered different types of dishes and all were excellent. Wife is chinese so very picky but she was very happy with the taste and quality of the food. Staff very friendly and service fast and efficient. They even had a novelty robot moving orders around.

    Nice vegan selection!

  • 4/5 Sarah K. 2 years ago on Google
    Probably best and most authentic dim sum game in town. They have preserved egg congee! Tiny bowl but still hits the spot! Tea selection! Sauces! Skip some of the more inventive dumplings, the chicken siu mai was a total miss. Dim sum baskets are brought out of the kitchen by a robot waiter. Kids loved it and great in these Covid contact-less times. Priced high but fairly for location, atmosphere and effort. I’d go back again, for sure, but with a smarter order. Really deserves 5 stars for Stockholm, 2.5 for Asia, 3.5 for New York, so settled at 4.

  • 4/5 Shashank A. 2 years ago on Google
    Nice Ambience and a decent Japanese Rstaurant.

  • 4/5 Justin C. 4 years ago on Google
    We had the 8 plates and 1 dessert for two. Dumplings were my favorite and the overall design of these dishes were nice. The only thing was the lamb chops were over spiced. You could only taste spice, that was it. The price for this per person was just under 600. I think this is a great deal for what you get. My only reason for 4 stars and not 5 is the regular wood chair seats were really uncomfortable, the music choice was bad, and two of the 8 dishes were 3/5 stars but the others were 4-5/5 dishes. Really kind service. If you’re looking for a “chef table” kind of experience it’s worth the try. They also sell a 6 dish course as well for 150 less if I recall.

    The dim sum is by far best in Stockholm. Fresh and handmade. Very good. No photo cause I ate it all. But I will upload next round.

  • 3/5 Jouni M. 2 years ago on Google
    3,5/5 stars. Food was fine but service was pathetic for the price. Ordered 8-dish dinner with a large drink menu. Waiter did not introduce the dishes nor wines we were getting served. When asked where the wine is coming from, he quickly read the bottle label and answered "from Italy". Can not do mistakes like this if you want to be a quality restaurant with high prices.
