Lao Tian Dumpling House opened in July 2024 in the former Cantuccio's pizza space, built entirely around handmade dumplings — more than 20 varieties, dough made from just flour and water, nothing frozen — and has already been voted Evanston's #1 Chinese restaurant despite being brand new to the scene.
