    I've heard great things about Dumpling U and finally had a chance to try it! I ordered the garlic noodles with chicken, and they were delicious. This was definitely my favorite dish. The chicken was made with breast meat, which is exactly how I prefer it. We also tried the chicken pan fried dumplings. They were just okay, but I did enjoy how crispy they were. I also ordered the hand-fried pork buns. Unfortunately, those were a bit disappointing. While they were very juicy when you bit into them, I felt they lacked flavor. I'm glad I tried them, but I probably wouldn't order them again. That being said, I definitely want to come back and try some of their other dumplings. The garlic noodles are a must order and were easily the highlight of the meal. The staff was also very friendly and helpful, which made for a great experience. If you're in the area, I'd recommend giving Dumpling U a try!

    Excellent soup dumplings with plenty of flavorful broth and a delicate wrapper. The pan-fried dumplings were crispy and juicy, and the Shanghai noodles were delicious. The unicorn bao buns were a fun surprise for the kids. Friendly service, reasonable prices, and authentic flavors. Definitely one of the better dumpling spots in the area. We'll be back!

    Pork Soup Dumplings

    The House Soup Dumplings with Classic Pork were fairly standard and ultimately underwhelming. The dumpling wrappers were too thick and doughy, and they tore apart too easily. The soup broth itself lacked the richness and umami depth that make great soup dumplings memorable. I was also disappointed that no fresh ginger was provided, nor did I see it offered. Traditionally, soup dumplings are enjoyed with fresh ginger and a vinegar-soy sauce mixture, often served on a soup spoon to catch the flavorful broth. That said, the House Special Beef Roll was the standout of the meal. Each roll features a crispy, flaky scallion pancake wrapped around tender five-spice braised beef shank, sweet hoisin sauce, and crisp, refreshing vegetables. The beef was slow-braised until exceptionally tender and infused with warm Chinese five-spice and soy sauce. The combination of savory, sweet, and salty flavors created a satisfying and flavorful bite. Many diners seem to enjoy the soup dumplings more than I did, so your experience may differ. However, I would recommend ordering an additional dish or appetizer if you choose them, as they are not particularly filling on their own. Be aware that the cost can add up quickly. An order of soup dumplings and the beef roll, including tip, came to about $42.

    4.7/5 stars. This place really blew me away! I came during lunch with my coworkers and we ordered several dishes and shared. All the food came out relatively quickly and was hot n fresh. Every single item was delicious. I could tell the food was homemade and it wasn't loaded with msg or salt. It was perfectly seasoned. My favorite were the noodles and chowmein and the deep fried dumplings. This is a great place for a group or family because of the dim sum options and huge portion sizes. The only feedback I could think of is expanding the menu with more protein options. The menu mainly consist of dumplings, chowmein and fried rice. In the future I'd like to see more meat dishes. Other than that, everything they did was offer was great. I would 100% come back here and have already recommended this place to friends and family!

    We really enjoyed our meal--the food was delicious and filling, and the staff made sure we had everything we needed. The only thing to note is that the table was a bit small for all the goodies we ordered. Ordering a little less might make the dining space more comfortable.

    Damn food network! Watching a chef make a dumpling dish and had to explore Yelp! Fellow Yelpers highly recommended this place so decided to check it out! Good sized crowd, but we were seated right away. Pricing seemed high, but were talked out of getting so much by the manager. All of our food was outstanding and they give a military discount!

    We have been wanting to try Dumpling U ever since they opened recently and were honestly impressed with how quick and satisfying the whole experience was. All of our food came out within about 5 minutes of ordering, which was impressive given how much we had ordered. We ordered a mix of dishes to try a little bit of everything. The House Special Beef Roll was a standout, crispy with a really nice beef-forward flavor that made it super satisfying and how I remember it tasting growing up. The classic Pork Soup Dumplings were decent, though the wrapper was a bit on the thicker side, and I felt like the pork filling could've used a little more seasoning to really enhance the flavor. The Pan-Fried Pork Buns were great, and I appreciated the heads-up from the staff that they come out piping hot and can squirt juice if you bite in too fast (they weren't kidding). Even better, they held up surprisingly well when reheated the next day. We also got the Dry Fried String Beans, which were super fragrant and flavorful, though just slightly on the salty side. The Honey Walnut Shrimp had huge pieces of shrimp with an extra crunchy coating, definitely a must order. And of course, can't go wrong with a side of white rice to have as a base for all our dishes. Overall, a great spot with fast service and a good variety of dishes. I'd definitely come back again and would recommend to anyone wanting to have authentic Chinese food.

    Walked in and felt like I was in the Bay Area--simple modern interior, clean and bright. Loved being able to watch the dumplings get made by hand. Food was really good--best soup dumplings I've found in Fresno. Favorite dish was the spicy wontons. The scallion pancakes were very thin and crispy. I liked how they used udon noodles for the garlic noodle dish although I felt like the dish needed some veggies. Great looking menu with many things to go back and try. Service was friendly and easy going and extremely fast. Great if you are in a hurry but still want to sit down. Paid the bill at the counter and had to wait awhile for people placing to go orders. Plan accordingly.

    I was really excited to try Dumpling U and was not disappointed. My favorite dish of the meal was easily the beef roll. It was amazing. The meat inside was so tender and the veggies added the perfect balance of freshness. The noodles were thick and flavorful. The soup dumplings were also very good and fun to eat. The place is really busy so it does take a while to get seated and get your order taken. The place itself looks very clean and calm.

    We went back during 'opening day'' to dine in. This is what we ordered; Honey Walnut Shrimp- very tasty! Wonton Soup- Pork wontons in a small amount of pork broth. I prefer chicken broth with LOTS of vegetables. This bowl had one or two pieces of seaweed in it. . . Eh. Har Gow; - Very good. The thinnest noodle I have seen YET for Har Gow! It had 'pin-tuck pleats' of noodle on top! (HOW do they DO that)?! Shrimp Fried rice- Delicious! Has a nice smoky (wok hei) flavor to it! Taro ice cream- Also delicious! I like their decor, dishes, blue and white condiment trays, staff and side room seating. But the combination of HYPER techno/rap music that was loudly playing, WRECKED THE ENVIRONMENT! I was looking at weary customers coming in from working all day, and small families just trying to have a peaceful meal. It's hard to have a conversation and relax when intrusive music is pounding your head. . . My question always is; is this music for the staff in the back? Or the customers in front? Next time will be takeout.

    Honey Walnut Shrimp (we requested no walnuts)
    Jacqueline A.

    Finally tried Dumpling U --everything from the spicy pork soup dumplings to the honey walnut shrimp was good. We also ordered the string beans, Shanghai chow mein, pork shrimp soup dumplings, char shiu bao, and crab rangoon (yes... we went all in ). Loved how you can watch them make the dumplings fresh right in front of you, and the staff + space made it such a nice, cozy night. The flavors leaned more on the subtle side rather than bold or overpowering, but I'd definitely come back to explore more of the menu. Overall, it was a good experience. The place was probably a little over half packed when we came in, but service was speedy and friendly. It's a great spot to go with friends, family, date or solo.

    I really wanted to like Dumpling U. With all the hype, I guess I had pretty high expectations. We went on a Saturday evening and were seated quickly. Our server was very friendly and helpful. We ordered two baskets of the pork soup dumplings, cucumber salad, chicken fried rice, sichuan won tons then ordered the strawberry crepe cake, strawberry mochi ice cream, and custard buns for dessert. Pork Soup Dumplings: 7/10, they were good but not the best. The flavor seemed off, I don't know how to describe it. Cucumber Salad: 3/10, the cucumber had an odd texture and tasted like watermelon rind. The sauce and spice level were nice. Chicken Fried Rice: 6/10, it seemed oily and had an odd aftertaste. Sichuan Style Wontons: 8/10, I liked these the most but they still had an odd flavor, same as the soup dumplings. All of the desserts were good. Crepe Cake: 8/10, very light. Tasted like strawberry ice cream. Strawberry Mochi Ice Cream: This came on a plate with two mochis cut in half. I didn't have any but my son said they were yummy. Custard Buns: 9/10, these caught us off guard because they are custard but tasted like coconut. I do recommend these because they are fun for the kiddos. By the time we were finished up eating, the place was pretty packed and got a bit warm and loud. I might give them another try in a few months to see if anything has changed with the Yelp feedback.

We ordered steamed pork buns, orange chicken, crispy sweet and sour pork, beef and broccoli, low mein, and Yangzhou Fried Rice. Everything was delicious and loaded with flavor. The standouts were the yangzhou fried rice which comes with shrimp, chicken, and vegetables. Loved all the meat here and big chunks of veggies. We all loved the orange chicken and the crispy fried pork especially. I tried to get my kids to sample the steam pork buns, but they wouldn't, which just meant more for me! Pillowy soft and full of tender BBQ pork, they were my fave. Truly a hidden gem right in the heart of Clovis!

The family dinner comes with a bowl of sizzling rice soup, An egg roll a pot sticker and foil wrapped chicken. My entree was crispy beef and my husband's entree was Kung pao chicken. Start off the soup was very flavorful, Definitely not your ordinary soup that you would find in the most places to start. The egg roll was a straight veggie roll but it was crispy and flavorful. The pot sticker was probably one of the best I've had in town, The wrapper was not too thick, Silky, Slightly crispy, And the filling was light and delicious not heavy. The Foil wrapped chicken Was different than any other place in that it was lighter and not overburdened with a salty sauce. As far as the entrees, My crispy beef was amazing, So crispy, With a delicious sauce. My husband's Kung pao chicken was so tasty, Everything was fresh and the chicken was not dry. The only downside to our entrees was that they were listed as spicy, But I think you have to ask for really spicy if you look like you can't handle it or something I don't know it just wasn't spicy at all. But we will definitely return and maybe ask for real spicy next time LOL.

There is finally a reasonably priced Chinese take-out option in town that I actually like. The Mongolian Beef featured tender, flavorful slices of meat paired with crisp, plentiful vegetables. The sauce complemented the dish rather than overwhelming it, and it was not overly greasy. The Garlic Chicken was also good, coated in a savory, slightly sweet soy glaze. The meat was soft and perfectly cooked, again accompanied by fresh, crunchy vegetables. Many of the dishes here are authentically Cantonese-style: savory, built around fresh ingredients, lightly sauced, and never excessively oily. Portions are generous as well. This stands in stark contrast to many other Chinese take-out spots I have tried, where the food leans salty, oversauced, and made with cheaper ingredients -- and becomes practically inedible once it cools down. Judging by the simple décor and limited seating, it is clear this restaurant prioritizes cooking over ambiance. Most customers opt for take-out, which likely helps keep prices affordable. Service is warm and efficient. You are greeted as soon as you walk in, and staff members are ready with ordering help and suggestions. Most lunch plates are $10.25 and come with steamed rice or chow mein, or pork fried rice for an additional $2. Lunch plates are offered daily from 10:30 AM to 3:00 PM, including weekends. The menu covers a broad range of Cantonese and Szechuan favorites -- Kung Pao Chicken, Walnut Shrimp, General Tao Chicken, Szechuan Beef, chow mein, chow fun, plus several soups and fried rice options. Combination plates start at $12.90, and the family specials (three dishes for $41) are a solid value. All in all, it is a great spot for anyone craving affordable, satisfying Chinese food -- especially students and anyone on a tight budget.
