I hate to leave this review but it saddens me to say they changed their recipe. The previous whiting fish was classic — bone-in, flavourful, uniquely West Indian. Now, they’re using cheap fillets that you buy in bulk (probably to save costs) and it shows in the quality. Dumplings are still amazing. But their best seller has gone down the drain. If something isn’t broken, why fix it?? This is heartbreaking and I wasted my money giving this a try. Was not worth the disappointment.

They changed their recipe for the whiting fish, and they now used processed frozen whiting an instead of fresh ones it’s DISGUSTING! DO NOT BUY! Soggy and nasty

I recently visited Dumpling Cove and ordered a medium curry goat, requesting no vegetables. When I got home and opened the styrofoam container, I was shocked. The portion of curry goat was tiny, a mere scoop of mainly bones, while the plate was overwhelmingly filled with rice. On top of that, the food looked like it had been dumped in the container with no care or attention to plating. It was ridiculous and disappointing.
For the price I paid, this was completely unacceptable. The curry goat itself was also underwhelming in flavor and did not meet my expectations. As a local resident wanting to support a neighborhood business, this experience was especially frustrating.
It’s disheartening when businesses serving a primarily Black clientele fail to uphold standards that respect their customers. Unfortunately, this will be my last order from Dumpling Cove. If you want good food and better service visit the Original Dumpling Shop up the street from there. Dumpling Cove will never get my business again.
This was delicious, but six small pieces of oxtail in a medium plate for $19 is overpriced. How many pieces in a large plate?

Brown stew snapper just tasted like ketchup and fish, and the fish was hard and old. Honestly was a humbling experience and made me appreciate the better spots in the area like Triple Js. Whiting and dumpling was ok but they headcrack for drinks.

As you know most West Indies place can have an attitude what is attitude was unnecessary and uncalled for food was mediocre wasn't that powerful I give it two stars the atmosphere was fantastic and have a sit in area outside that you can sit outside that's a good touch..
