LeDu - München

Finally a good Dim Sum restaurant in Munich! This restaurant is great for a spontaneous crave for Dumplings Ive been there many times now and it is...

Great place for dumplings! You can get both pan fried and steamed dumplings here. Since I am a fan of steamed dumplings I got these, tasty mixed...

Prefer the other location because the salad was fresher there wasn't old wilted lettuce sitting at the bottom and they don't serve you salad drowning...

Prefer the other location because the salad was fresher there wasn't old wilted lettuce sitting at the bottom and they don't serve you salad drowning in dressing. There was a half inch of dressing at the bottom of our bowls. The dumplings are good, and for .5 more Euro you can mix and match once you decide which dumplings are your favorite. This was my third time at LeDu in less than a week, and first time at this location. The tables are communal here, except for the two tables outside. I'd give this place 3.5 stars, if I could, but then again, the bathroom here is much nicer than the other location. It's spacious, has handrails if you need, L'Occitane lavender hand lotion after you wash up.

This was a surprising little find. After spending a day at the Residenz Museum, we had worked up quite an appetite. A 10 minute walk led us into a trendy SOHO district with enticing antique shops. Only a handful of places were open on Sunday including this one. Service is quick, abrupt, and hardly friendly. The menu is on the wall, but there are English versions for your perusal. It's pretty straightforward if you're ordering dumplings. Figure out if you want light or dark exterior. The waitress said it tastes the same, only one is darker. Hmm...alrighty. We'll go with the lighter one cuz dumplings cuz it seems weird any other way. You choose the steam or pan fried method, then the filling. I had to take off a star because I expected a nice crisp bottom when traditional dumplings are pan fried. There was hardly a difference between pan fried and steamed. They've got a few other items like dessert dumplings and salads. I tried the peanut dressing salad and it was refreshing on a warm day. They've also got an array of teas..again worth getting to help wash down the flavorful dumplings. I agree with other yelpers that it was a bit too salty. It came with dipping sauces, but there was so much flavor that it truly wasn't necessary. This little place is TINY so expect to share a table. The colorful, cool decor makes up for the lack of space. I suggest coming at off hours so you're not elbow to elbow with other patrons.
