I was able to find street parking prior to dining here. The business was fairly empty with a few people inside when I came. There were several tables and a full service bar inside. I sat at the bar and was greeted by the bartender. She was nice but not very personable. I ordered wings and dumplings. Both were good. The wings were tender and flavorful. I wasn't a fan of the sweet sauce or green sauce that was served with my food. I would come back & try other food options. read more

4/3/25 We came by 30 mins before closing and grabbed a quick dumpling snack with a drink. Sam was our bartender and he was great. I asked for a lychee martini and it wasn't on the menu but Sam made it happen and it was delish! Yum! We ordered the pan fried dumplings which were great! We ordered the steamed chicken ones but it was kinda mushy. If skip those next time! Cute atmosphere for dining! read more

Sad to hear of the closing of MOFU. I've been several times for dine in and takeout but seemed to have forgotten to review it...until now. We really enjoyed having lunch here. The employees were friendly and welcoming. The food was nutritious and flavorful. Plus it was presented well. Seating was available at the bar or at tables. We chose to dine at the tables. The dining area is decorated well and light. We will miss coming here! read more

I been to Mofu Shoppe a couple of times over the years and never been disappointed. Their food is always flavorful and they frequently introduce new dishes. This time I tried the Braised Cumin Lamb that was just added to the menu. The lamb was very tender and flavorful. I love Bok Choy so that was a hit. We also got the Mofu Wings which were perfectly crispy. Just the way I like them. For my cocktail, I had their take on an Old Fashioned. It's was citrusy and had a unique flavor. I would get it again. read more

We had a close friend recommend we eat here. And I have to say it was definitely worth it. The food is great very tasty. Lots of selection. And the drinks are just right. The staff was incredibly helpful and made sure that we knew about the specials. The ambience is chill. Perfect for a date night or a gathering with friends. But also a good place to bring the family and kids. We will definitely be back. read more

first time coming in and the restaurant is beautiful. an upscale casual dining experience. the host was super friendly and led us to our table quickly. we did have a reservation too. we had a party of four and ordered a lot of food. first were the wings. they were glazed in a fish sauce based sauce. i'm vietnamese so i LOVE fish sauce and unfortunately, it didn't have a strong flavor of fish sauce. i understand it is a very powerful ingredient. but the wings were so crispy and juicy and the cilantro sauce on the side was great too. the pork and chive dumplings were pretty standard. nothing special. delicious nonetheless. mussels were great as well. the broth was a tom yum soup based. the fried chicken bucket was the same batter as the wings but came with breast meat too. it unfortunately wasn't anything that special. it was good and it said it was brined but i didn't taste any brine flavor in the meat. the side pickles were okay and the rice was cooked perfectly. also the bao buns that came with it were the perfect vehicle for the crispy chicken. overall, it was a good meal. it wasn't amazing but i still enjoyed my meal. the staff were friendly and helpful. i would come again in the future to try other items on their menu. read more

Friday we had reservations for dinner here with family to celebrate our daughter's masters graduation from NCSU. We were a little late due to traffic and called to let them know. When we arrived they were so nice and didn't make us feel badly. Our waiter was awesome. He was funny and honest and suggested some really great things to try. We ordered it all. And then some. We had all of the dumplings. Not sure which was my favorite but I could not tell the beyond wasn't meat. So good. The white pepper chicken was really tasty but don't eat the red peppers if you're sensitive to heat. They are Fresno peppers and are en fuego. Brussels sprouts were fantastic! Interesting tofu puffs in there. The only thing I wasn't a huge fan of was the tots. They got soggy too quickly. I had the cold brew martini because my jet lagged booty was lagging. It was perfection. We tried the lychee margarita, the aperol things, the spritz, and a few different beers. All good. Our waiter remained awesome throughout our whole drawn out evening. I hope we can visit another time we are in Raleigh. Parking is a little difficult on weekends. read more

MOFU Shoppe - Chicken with ginger dumplings. Yum - Asian Fusion Near Me - Raleigh, North Carolina

See all

I had heard really great things about MOFU Shoppe, so I was really excited to try it. It's in a fun spot in downtown Raleigh. I would say it's perfect for a work dinner or a date night. It's got a cool, industrial vibe. We got seated without a reservation, but I'd say there's a decent amount of tables in the downstairs area and in the upstairs loft. The service was great, and our server was really nice and helpful. The menu is small, with a few appetizers, entrees, and dumplings. They also sell cocktails, which were Asian inspired. We ordered the wings, noodles, and a rice dish. I will say that the portions were pretty sizeable. My complaint about MOFU is that the taste of the dishes were inconsistent. While we loved the wings, we felt that the noodle dish was not that tasty. It was mostly just paste and noodles. Overall, I'd say there are some standout dishes that we liked here, but unfortunately we had some that really let us down. read more

It's an asian-fusion restaurant with small plates and mains - we each got a couple of different things to try. most were good, some were alright. we got the kimchi tots, the mofu seasonal salad, the pork belly, the wings, beef tartare, and the beef noodle soup. we also got drinks. standouts were the salad, the wings, and the pork belly. the tots were alright and the noodle soup was not good. drinks were good and the service was great read more

Max with Offline - We visited Mofu Dumpling Bistro in Raleigh thanks to an Offline offer, and I'm so glad we did... though our hearts sank when we learned they're closing their doors at the end of the month. Such a loss for the Raleigh food scene. From the moment we walked in, the vibes were warm and inviting, the service was spot-on, and the food--just incredible. I had the Veggie Lo Mein with added shrimp and chicken, and it was perfect in every way: flavorful, balanced, and the portion size was just right. For appetizers, we went with the cauliflower and Brussels sprouts, and both were absolute standouts--crisp, seasoned beautifully, and full of flavor. The real surprise of the night was the Yuzu Sakè. It was so good, we ended up ordering an entire bottle to share at the table. We're definitely going to try and return before they close, because WOW... this place is truly a hidden gem in Raleigh, NC. If you haven't been yet, you're missing out. read more

Decent Asian option downtown. The menu is what initially drew me in for the uniqueness of some dishes. The inside is really nice, decor isn't the cheesy "asian inspired" randomness, but more of a nice modern touch of Asia. Started off with the Mofu Wings with the nuoc mam sauce - the chicken was fried nicely but the nuoc mam was too sweet opposed to the anticipated prevalence of fish sauce flavor. Also ordered the Minced Pork Stir Fry with the canton noodles - reminded me of a Dan Dan inspired dish but the meat was different, in a good way. The only gripe was it was too salty. Overall, service was good and was fun to see they were hosted what looked like a dinner club or something while we were dining there. Would come back and try other dishes. read more

On a busy first Friday night in downtown Raleigh, we decided to have dinner at Mofu Shoppe! There was a 35-40 minute wait for a table for 2 (we didn't make a reservation), so we opted to sit at the last 2 seats at the bar! It took a little time for one of the awesome bar tenders to wait on us, but it's understandable for a super busy Friday night. It's a super cute vibe. There's even a little upstairs balcony looking seating area. I really liked the vibe here. The service was pretty good to top it off! My daughter had been here before and surprisingly it was my first time. Since she had decided to come here again, I let her order. She ordered us several shareable to share :) The Beef Bulgogi Dumplings were absolutely amazing. It came with an even more yummy kimchi bbq sauce for dipping. The Kimchi tots were amazing, such an amazing flavor profile. On to the Mofu Wings, they have a few flavors, we ordered the Thai Chili, soooo delicious. And lastly the Crispy Brussels w/ Fried Tofu. The Brussels were delicious. I was literally dancing in my seat the food was so good. If you know me, I hardly ever give 5's. I give glowing 4's, but 5's are rare. I'll be dreaming about this food until I go back next. read more

MOFU Shoppe - Chicken MOFU WINGS - Asian Fusion Near Me - Raleigh, North Carolina

I was excited to try Mofu Shoppe since I heard some good things about it plus they won The Great Food Truck Race a few years ago. It has a casual industrial vibe with an expansive bar. The setting is perfect for a date night or a night out with friends. Cocktails were excellent. The lychee margarita was amazing. I forget what the other drink's called but it had mango purée, sake & coconut. It tasted just like mango sticky rice! Mofu wings & pork & chive dumplings were pretty good. Braised cumin lamb shank was fork tender and well seasoned. The collards that came as a side were phenomenal! I could eat bowls of that. My entree, the Thai Red Squash Curry was a bit too salty. It probably would been better if the rice was served separately instead of in the same bowl. Service was just ok...not very attentive since our server disappeared for a while & didn't refill our water. I'd definitely come back just for the drinks & the collards! read more

My friends and I made reservations for this place after hearing lots of great things about it. We got the kimchi tots to share and I got the Thai Basil Noodles for myself. The tots were absolutely wonderful and a great flavor profile between 2 different cuisines. The Thai Basil Noodles were okay. Definitely lacked spice but can always ask for chili oil or siracha on the side. My friends got the dumplings but you only get 5 for $12 which we did not think were worth it especially after trying them since they were not anything special. I'm inside atmosphere was really cool. Lots of open space and a good bar as well as a good drink selection. Staff was friendly as well and pretty helpful. Prices were decently priced except for the dumplings. Overall, a good location and pretty decent food. Will likely come back one day if there are new vegetarian options added to the menu. read more

Everything was delicious! We ordered both version of dumplings and wife and I couldn't decide which one we liked more. Also ordered the pork belly bao buns and both agreed was one of the best we had. Pork belly was super crispy on the outside and tender on the inside. The entrees were very good. Shaved beef noodles were tender and flavorful and wife loved her fried rice. Good amount of spice but not over powering. Definitely coming back here! read more

YES finally a dumpling spot you can count on! You will not regret going here, getting a ton of stuff, splitting it, and leaving full. Pretty much everything we had was incredible but make sure to get the twice cooked pork belly - TRULY insane, I am still thinking about it. Sweet, crispy, buttery, GET IT. We got all the dumplings with protein and I loved them all. The chicken and ginger is a wonton so it's crispy fried and crunchy, incredible. The pork and chive have a great sauce and was so savory. My fave was the bulgogi but I mean bulgogi is just an unfair comparison. GET TO MOFU AND THANK ME LATER! read more

MOFU Shoppe - Twice-Cooked Pork Belly Fried Chicken & Ginger Wontons (5 Count) Pork and Chive Dumplings (5 Count) Beef Bulgogi Dumplings (5 Count) - Asian Fusion Near Me - Raleigh, North Carolina

I have been to mofu before and had a fine experience, but my time here the other night was an all-around great experience. I saw multiple reviews beforehand about a certain server but didn't think much of it. Halfway through the meal, my family was talking about how great the service was, and thats when I realized we had Drew, the server so many others had wrote about! I thought that was funny. Although it's too late to get it, one of my favorite dishes we got was their state fair special of a corn dog banh mi. It was so innovative and thematic (not to mention delicious). We got a lot to share, and I don't think their was a single bad dish. The lowest on my list, however would be the noodles. I felt it didn't have as much flavor as I wanted. I really loved the curry but it is definitely spicy so beware of that. They also had some gluten free options, but I wouldn't suggest being gluten free here simply because it would be too sad to watch others eating cute little dumplings. I went on a Saturday night and it wasn't crazy busy when we first got there around 6, but it picked up a little later. I would recommend having reservations to be safe. Thats what I did. Closing statement : come here with a group of people and share a bunch of food so you can try everything! read more

I love the fact that this place has vegan options that aren't just tofu versions of various meats. That's what makes this place unique. They have food that is delicious, flavorful, and for everyone! This is a cute restaurant in downtown Raleigh and you have to park on the street. I would say it is a little overpriced, but otherwise the food was great. We got the kimchi tots without kimchi, shrimp fried rice, impossible thai basil noodles, and impossible dumplings. We got our food to-go but it was still hot, rich in flavor, and satisfying. Our top item was the impossible dumplings! These were amazing, you would've thought it was real meat inside and we loved the sauce it came with too. The tots were good- we loved the dipping sauces and the noodles were great as well with a generous portion of the impossible meat. I thought the beef was tender and delicious, however my piece was full of fat. It came with amazing mashed potatoes too but they were overpowered by the onion relish (?) that was on top of them and kinda ruined them. I would not get the shrimp fried rice again because as a person who loves fried rice this was not tasty to me and it was very lackluster. However, there is so many menu options and because of the quality of everything else we had I would definitely be back to try the fish curry, fish tacos, chicken wings, and more! read more

I was incredibly disappointed with the quality of the food here. After having seen some of the reviews and photos for this place, I was pretty excited to try it out. We ordered takeout and got the Thai Basil, Kimchi Tots, and the Smoked Pork Belly Bowl. All of which unfortunately were disappointing. The thai basil noodles were undercooked, there were some noodles that were stiff and a bit chewy, and some that were completely soggy. The sauce didn't sit well and only covered some of the noodles, leaving the dish half salty and the other half bland. The smoked pork belly was fine by most standards, but I was hoping to get a bit more flavor out of it. The plate as a whole was fairly bland, with most of the flavor coming from the sweet vegetables. The kimchi tots were by far the biggest disappointment. First of all they did not come with any kimchi? You can reference my photo if you would like, but there was no kimchi to be spotted anywhere. It came with little pork bits, but they were very dry and hard and didn't do much to add to the tots. Overall I was hoping for a lot more from this place, don't really recommend it. read more

Hidden gem. We found this place while walking to the park downtown. The menu posted outside seemed delicious, but they were packed. Decided to finally check it out and it did NOT disappoint. The pork belly bites were EVERYTHING. Honestly I enjoyed every item we ate, but those were my favorite. We also tried the short ribs, dumplings, chicken satay and fried rice. The drinks were also delicious. The service was fast and the food was good. Overall win. read more

I ordered from MOFU a few nights ago via Uber Eats and was NOT disappointed. I am surprised I hadn't been there or tried it before, and I'm so glad I finally did! I can't speak about the atmosphere, hence getting it delivered. However, I can surely speak, and highly, of the food. All of the food was delivered hot and fresh. I got a few different things for my husband and I to try: Beef Bulgogi Dumplings, Shaved Beef Noodles, Pork Belly Bao Buns, Crispy Brussels Sprouts, and a side of Steamed Tofu. Let's just say ALL of this was fresh, flavorful, quality ingredients, and delicious. The dumplings were so good; the beef was perfectly tender and seasoned. The beef also wasn't awkward, sometimes meat is sketchy within a dumpling and this was perfect. The Brussels Sprouts were served with "puffed" tofu, and pickled onions, with crème Fraiche and sweet chili sauce on the side; these were delicious! The noodles I got with chicken instead of beef and added my side of steamed tofu, the portion was perfect for two people. They were so yummy. Saving the best for last here; the Pork Belly Bao Buns! I'm pretty sure these were the best I've ever had, and I've had quite a few. Served crispy and smoky, and full of mouth-watering flavor. Do not skip these if you try this spot! I can't wait to order from the spot again or go check it out. I highly recommend it. Their food is delicious. This food made me talk to myself out loud and dance. That's how good it was. read more

Don't know why this place is rated as highly as it is. Food was okay, but certainty could have been better, and was overpriced for how it tasted. FOOD: We got several things and shared. My favorite was the Bulgogi dumplings ($10), perhaps second favorite were the Pork and Chive dumplings ($9). For mains, we got the Thai Basil Noodles ($14), but honestly would rather just go get drunken thai noodles. The Mofu Wings ($13) and Popcorn Shroom ($9) were just okay. Dan Dan Noodles ($13) were definitely underwhelming For dessert we shared the Vietnamese Coffee Mouse ($7), which was tasty. AMBIANCE: Pretty cute. We sat at the bar, but I found myself really wishing the bar stools had backs. Good vibes, not too fancy. SERVICE: Okay. It took us a little while to flag down our waitress to order food after we got drinks. OVERALL: Very meh. Wouldn't come back. read more

Always take people here when they're visiting from out of town and always order half the menu! We always order most of the dumplings (except the impossible and chive since that's just not our jam). Our favorite was the chicken skewers. Normally at other places I don't find this dish special but the chicken was perfectly cooked and the accompanying sauce paired excellently with it. And our server Spencer sat down and critiqued our photos! read more

I heard so much about MOFU shoppe over the last two years, and finally decided to give it a go with my wife for a date night. We both came out of the experience generally satisfied with the food, but also underwhelmed by the service. A mixed bag, though more positive than negative by the end of the night. If there were such thing as half ratings on Yelp, it would be a totally solid 3.5. The date night started off with us being seated late despite having a reservation. Typically, no biggie. I am a very low maintenance guy, and I always give a HUGE benefit of the doubt to most places that I go to. It usually takes multiple mistakes during an outing for me to determine an experience should be a firm 3 star or lower rating, and I can back that up by the fact that the majority of my reviews are 4 or 5 stars. I always make a strong effort to only remove multiple stars based on consecutive poor efforts that truly have an affect on my experience, and that goes for the highest end places, or McDonalds, it doesn't matter. My criteria is always the same. We were seated after about 20 minutes of waiting with a reservation, but where they lost me is the fact that they didn't promptly come give us menus or even apologize about the wait despite there being tables available. Once we ordered our wine, it took an additional 15 minutes for them to bring it out. So, from entering the restaurant to getting our first drink order took about 35 minutes for a place that was not even in peak hours yet. Now here's the thing, all of the food delivered! For a place that is rated 4.5 stars and had this much hype behind it, I started genuinely worrying that we were in for an all around poor experience, but once the food started coming out, the night was definitely redeemed. The chicken wings and tots were fantastic and the perfect appetizers. We then ordered sticky short ribs, Thai basil noodles, and dumplings, all of which were delicious, but it's the dumplings that stole the show! The short ribs were good but surprisingly the most "average" plate of the night. All in all, night saved by the food. I still feel the need to properly rate this experience because it definitely started off rocky, but I don't believe my singular experience should deter you from giving it a try yourself. I even remember speaking to my wife after the meal, and we both said we were willing to give the place another shot. It's very possible we were here on an understaffed day, or one in which they had an off customer service day, but it's definitely forgivable due to the food living up to the hype. Verdict: MOFU Shoppe offers a unique fusion flavor, with a very cozy atmosphere, and a good selection of drinks, but underwhelming service .. at least during our initial visit. The experience was more positive than negative, so we will be back! Rating: 3.5 read more

My business luncheon was a complete disappointment. I'll start by saying that our table was 1 of 3 in the entire restaurant. Our 2 cocktails arrived 1/3 of the way through our food. The chicken dumplings were tasty. So I ordered the pork dumplings next. The dumpling was very different from the first order. It was very thick, tough, & gummy. The filling lacked flavor & tasted like the refrigerator needs to be cleaned. I sent them back. They were replaced with bulgogi dumplings. They were bland and the dumpling equally thick and gummy. I love kimchi. I also had the kimchi tots. Sounded like an automatic win... Not even close. The kimchi lacked flavor. How can kimchi lack flavor??? I'm so confused. The server was polite, but very unattentive. The manager came over and picked a fight with me. The vibe? They are struggling to keep the doors open and my horrible dumplings were the tipping point of whether they would live to see another day. lol jp But she definitely had a horrible attitude, aura, and came looking for a fight. It's so sad to see adults behave in this manner. Please learn appropriate methods of dealing with disappointed customers. Yelling at them isn't the way. Yelling is never the way. Don't. Just don't. read more

Guys, MOFU is the spot. We have been trying to visit new places in Raleigh once a month and this visit happened to be for our anniversary. When we made the reservation it asked if we were visiting for a special occasion and my husband indicated that it was our anniversary. The staff rolled out the red carpet for us on this visit. Every staff member that we encountered wished us a happy anniversary and we were sat at a very intimate spot in the restaurant. They were attentive and made excellent suggestions. Food was excellent. We ordered shareable plates and had just enough within a reasonable price range. Double fried pork belly just melts in your mouth. Brussels sprouts were unbelievable and I noticed that it came with croutons but after further inspection of the menu they were actually fried tofu, we couldn't believe it. Dumplings are amazing; we favored the pork and chive. Wings are out of this world. Next time we go we will probably split a plate and try a few new shareable plates, but either way we know it will be delicious. If I had to nit pick, I wish they had a wider selection of beers on tap, not just IPA's. Either way there is something for everyone! Oh, ask for the yuzu Prosecco. WOW, WOW, WOW. Such a great experience! read more

First off don't get confused by the name... this is a restaurant lol. Service was great-ask for Spencer. What a great server! Food was delicious. Tried all the dumplings except the "impossible" ones but appreciate having that option available. Stars of the show and must haves were the chicken satay so moist and tasty, Brussel sprouts were prob the best I've ever had, and dumplings were all so tasty. Runner ups worth mentioning but may not order again were the mofu chicken wings and crispy pork belly. Would not order again was the white pepper chicken. Dessert Vietnamese coffee mousse was interesting and not too sweet but def worth trying. I would definitely come back if I'm in Raleigh again read more

Decided to check this place out after having it recommended by a friend. Made reservations in advance on a Tuesday evening (only about two parties and right up to the time we left the restaurant had filled up more). We decided to start off with the wings and did half and half for the sauce which I must say was delicious! The spicy chili and honey were definitely a great balance. For our main courses we decided to get dumplings and the fried rice with shrimp. The fried rice was super good! Not like the type of fried rice I'm used to since it didn't have as much sauce, but it was definitely a nice change. Service: our sever Diamond was very sweet and attentive ! read more

Was super excited to come here after seeing their menu online - I'm a sucker for some delicious dumplings and good Asian food. I'd say overall the experience was okay: the ambiance of the restaurant itself was cool and moody, but the food didn't quite hit the mark for me. We got the kimchi tots to share and those were good. The tots were perfectly crunchy with a layer of kimchi and spicy mayo on top. I wish that the kimchi had some bigger pieces, since it was really chopped up and you didn't get any large slices of napa. We were also debating on getting dumplings and ended up getting one order of the pork and chive dumplings. The menu doesn't really state whether the dumplings were steamed, pan-fried, or deep fried, and I think that would be a good addition since we were hoping for steamed, but they were pan-fried. With only five dumplings for $12, it's steep pricing. The dumplings were fine, your standard filling with a good crunch on the skin. It came with two dipping sauces that were definitely needed, since the filling by itself didn't have much flavor. For my entree, I got the Taiwanese Bolognese. It sounded delicious on the menu, but the flavor wasn't quite there for me. I wished the Penang curry paste sauce was thicker to coat the noodles more, since all the sauce sank to the bottom. Also not sure why this dish was called a Taiwanese Bolognese when there were no Taiwanese flavors in it - Penang curry paste is primarily used in Thai cuisine. read more

Found this place just by chance. Was feeling for some Asian food and I am glad I came across this fusion fest. Food is unorthodox but does carry some of the familiar Asian palates. This applies to their cocktails too. Food is pretty pricy but will fill you up. The staff here makes you feel welcomed. The chef accommodated to our food preferences as well. 5/5 for service. The place felt clean and classy. There are 2 stories but we stayed on the bottom floor. I'd want to come here again. read more

I came here a few days ago per suggestion by my celiac sister. She came her a couple months ago with some friends and while she can only eat one dish on the menu, she loved it; however, this time when we went is the reason there is one star docked. She can only have this pork belly rice bowl but she substitute chicken as she doesn't eat pork. When she got her food, she said it was different than the last time. The chicken wasn't grilled nicely and as flavorful as the last and lots of the chicken had undesired chewy texture. She also had multiple egg shells in her dish which made her feel sick and not want to keep eating. So the star is docked for the inconsistency in the kitchen and for the obvious poor meal on behalf of my sister. Aside from that ! The rest of us were fortunate to enjoy our whole meals. I didn't personally try everything I have pictures of but I had the fried rice. It was good flavor, especially with the red sauce that comes with the pork dumplings. Only downside to this, was I also had a few chewy pieces of chicken. The pork dumplings were AMAZING. wow, we loved them. So delicious with the sauces too. I also had the mandu dumplings and they were also good with the sauce they came with, but not as good standing alone or with other sauces. They really needed the specific sauce to compliment it and when dipped with the pozu like sauce, it wasn't good. Obviously, I understand things are paired for a reason but wanted to put it out there in case people only like the specific sauces! I also really loved the corn ribs. Like wow, those had so much flavor. The short ribs were okay, didn't taste like anything special to me. Our server was a great server too and she was very friendly. I'd say the food seemed a bit high in price for some things that you get. I think the dumplings are a bit overpriced even though very good, or they could at least not be all the same price? As the mandu was a lot less than the pork and chive. read more
