    Very friendly service and food is tasty. Ordering is through QR code. Quick service and able to accommodate vegetarians.

    This was my first time at Mom's Dumpling. The dumplings were delicious and tasted fresh. I ordered the cuttle fish/pork dumplings and the zucchini/shrimp dumplings. All dumplings were very moist and tasted fresh. The wrapper of the dumpling was light, chewy, and the perfect thickness. Ordering food is accomplished through using your own phone by scanning the QR code on the table. I've been to a few dumpling restaurants in Davis and Mom's Dumpling had the most unique and best tasting dumplings. Service was good as the workers were friendly.

    Came for the home-made dumplings. Good environment, good service and good food! Fried tofu is very good!

    I wasn't expecting these dumplings to be THIS GOOD. Got the triple delight which is pork shrimp and chive. You can't taste the chive and it's fantastic. You can tell there's a lot of shrimp, the portion is good for the price, there's the crispy part. I prefer this dumpling spot to the one just across the street because the flavor was PERFECT. Salt was perfect, it was flavorful, and it was still super juicy. Service was super nice and the inside is tiny but cute.

    Im rating this pretty critically since its a dumpling restaurant, and I had every dumpling store in davis atleast 5 times each. This place would be a contender to yangkee if it wasnt for the dough. I think the filling is 5 stars, but the dough is a problem. It lacks structure and it isn't kneaded so it falls apart easily. I am hoping this issue can be fixed because it would elevate this place to atleast a 4.5 stars. The base feels more like a cracker than a thin crisp you look for in traditional dumplings. Great filling though, I will look forward to trying this place in the future again.

    We really liked this small restaurant. Dumplings were fresh, service was prompt and helpful. You scan a QR code to order-very easy to do it. Food came quickly. We ordered spicy cucumbers, edamame, tofu with cilantro-these were all cold dishes. Also ordered black pepper beef dumplings, pork and chives dumplings and mixed vegetables dumplings. Our only request would be to mention somewhere that the pan fried mixed vegetables dumplings contain egg in the lacy fried pancake thing. Or have an option of having steamed mixed vegetables dumplings. Food was fresh and came very quickly to the table. We definitely recommend it.

    This is the place to go if you like dumplings. All their dumplings are made from scratch, and ALL of them are fantastic. I went here yesterday with my mom, and we never go out to eat (maybe twice a month max) and since we tried this place, Mom's Dumplings has consistently earned its spot as one of the restaurants out of 2 max we go to each month. I don't think I could think more highly of their dumplings then I already do, they really are just fantastic!

    went here when it just opened, we were the only people in here and ordered just these dumplings. it took about 45min to an hour for it to come out. they said a machine broke, yet were still serving food to the other customers... it felt like they treated customers who spoke chinese better than those who didn't...

    very nice restaurant, the owner is pretty nice and chill! The zucchini dumplings, cutter fish dumplings and pan-fried dumplings are very delicious! Highly recommend!

    Zucchini egg and shrimp. My favorite at this place! Don't get too much. I want some leftover for me after class. Thanks.

    Do the dumpling wrappers contain egg?

    Hi! Our dumpling wrappers are made with flour and water and do not contain egg. However, some of our fillings do contain egg depending on the flavor. Please feel free to ask if you have any allergies or dietary restrictions. Thank you!

    Are there any vegetarian dumplings?

I ordered 2 simple items for takeout, which they said would be ready around 8:20pm. On my way over, I received a call from the restaurant that they didn't have the noodle for the noodle dish I ordered, so I gave them the green light to substitute for a different rice noodle. The pickup time was now 8:35. When I arrived, it was bright out, the restaurant was loud, and the waiting area was standing room only. I ended up waiting so long that the sun set, the waiting area emptied, half the dining tables cleared, the NBA game ended, the kitchen closed, and staff started cleaning! The front desk person seemed concerned that my order wasn't ready so she checked on my order a couple times. She assured me the noodles were done and it was only the egg tarts that we were waiting for. (Maybe the hens were still hatching the eggs?!!) Considering I ordered online and even waited before driving over, it was ridiculous to still wait an hour for 2 items. I even watched people come in to get seated, order and eat during my time there. I was about to cancel my order to get a refund -- and forego eating dinner altogether because waiting so long there had made me lose my appetite. It seemed obvious there was a mess up somewhere because it was only my order that was not ready. But then someone brought out my bag. The food was honestly just okay. The egg tarts were a 7/10 and dry chow fun was a 4/10. The experience was a 0/10. I can't recommend it. It could've been a fluke experience but the manager could have handled it better. My order should have been comped for taking ONE HOUR longer than it was supposed to be ready.

Ordered few items, food came out very fast and the tastes are not bad at all. Beef Fried Rice Noodles: How do you differentiate if this dish is good or not, it is about how much excessive oil that's left on the plate. The stir fried was good, not too greasy, and they marinate the meat well. Unlike other Chinese restaurants, this place's meat was good. Only they could stir fried with even higher eat to create more "wok air" Sticky Rice Stick with Brown Sugar: First time trying this dish, so not sure what to expect. But it does seem to be a dessert to me, my comment would be higher if the rice stick is more chewy. Hot & Sour Shredded Potato: This is common dish from northern part of China. The way they prepared was awesome. The potato was not starchy and the seasoning is just right. A bit greasy but this is actually my favorite dish! Shrimp and Pork with Chives Dumplings: Meat is fresh and dumpling wrap is great too. Each dumpling size is not too big and wasn't torn. Taste is okay but maybe try another filling if I visit again. I would come again to try out other things on the menu if I'm visiting my kid again.

I went from a thin top to a medium weight sweater. We arrived in Davis I grabbed my jacket to pair with my sweater. Today was a day spent exploring Davis to see the California Conference for the Advancement of Ceramic Arts (CCACA). What a great Conference. We come each year for this Conference and explore Davis every time we are here. After exploring the first building of the show it was coming on time to eat. We looked around the current shopping center and my husband didn't see anything he was craving. He said we'll go more into town and look for a noodle place. He said he remembered one from our last visit, down one of the alleys. Walking up the street we saw a couple of advertisements. A sandwich board was on the sidewalk for Davis Noodle CIty, the exact place we were looking for. The little Noodle Shop in the alley. We weaved through the other businesses, past the dumpling restaurant, past the outdoor seating and to the front door of the Davis Noodle City Restaurant. The out door seating looked really welcoming, but it was chilly out so we opted for eating inside with the other table that was occupied. There were 3 parties eating outside when we arrived. When we walked inside we were greeted and told to take any table. We choose a table in the corner. The menus were under the glass table top, keeping it clean and easy to read. Each place setting had its own copy of the menu. After looking at the menu, remembering what was offered on the sandwich board in front, and cross referencing it with Yelp Reviews we started ordering. We opted for the Five Spice Beef Noodles, and I asked if that was a good option and she said it was their top seller. The Yelp Reviews were only ok for that dish, but I took our chances. The second dish we ordered was the Dan Dan Noodles She tried to upscale us to the one with vegetables, but that dish was a cold dish so we when for the standard Dan Dan Noodles. Both dishes came out quickly. The Dan Dan noodles were not spicy as I anticipated, which was good, I wasn't really looking for spicy. I liked the flavor and realized that if you mixed it up there is a sauce on the bottom that is really tasty. Dan Dan Noodles ($8.25 a steal) is a solid dish and I highly reccomend it. It's a great bowlful of noodles. If you are hopping for other ingredients you are out of luck, it's 100% noodles with a sprinkling of peanuts on top and a sauce on the bottom. The Five Spice Beef Noodle Soup ($12.75)was as described in the reviews. It comes with American Broccoli and carrots. The beef is so good it melts in your mouth. The broth is minimal and lacked flavor. I'd think that it's advertised as Five Spice that it would have more flavor. I don't reccomend it if you are looking for a strong flavor. If you are looking for great meat, that melts in your mouth, but is also a little fatty then you have the perfect dish. Both dishes came with fresh noodles, none of those dried and rehydrated noodles that some places serve. The noodles on both dishes were different and pleasant. I highly reccomend their fresh noodles. Customer service was good. She came to check up on us and was pleasant. Parking is street parking. And they have a bathroom on site that is clean and well stocked.

Dinners are closer to $15.
