One of my favorite spots in the Bay Area for pan fried soup dumplings! Everything I have tried from here has been excellent.

The three of us had several different dumplings, and all of them were good. The service was attentive and quick. The Thai ice tea was really good and not too sweet.

Consistently good food and service and reasonably priced for the quality and atmosphere. We come here when we crave Chinese food and you know it's legit because the older generation Chinese eat here too.

We have been here / taken out many times. All the food is flavorful. Lots of good choices we rotate through on the menu but I always get the pan fried kurobuta pork baos.

Some Chinese places I find the food under seasoned or maybe not that well cooked, however this place does a great job. Everything is well seasoned and even simple dishes like mixed veggies - all the veggies were cooked well with beautiful bright green color and slight crunch/not overcooked. Small but important details

We had to wait one hour without being attended to. No notes were made of waiting for our turn and so we ended up standing until space opened up. Quite frustrating. However food ordered and came timely.

The food was amazing. Every vegetable was fresh and cooked perfectly. The dumplings are amazing and it is the best tofu I have ever had. The pork dumplings and the soup dumplings are delicious. The service was fun and helpful. A+

We tried Dumpling King as it is one of the restaurants open later on Clement St, and were not disappointed. We were with my nieces, who can be quite picky and difficult to please.

We ordered the salmon avocado fried rice, shanghai soup dumpling, kimchi & pork soup dumpling, shrimp & scallop dumpling, pan fried chicken pot sticker, and zhajiang mian.

We all really loved the dumplings. My nieces especially loved the shanghai soup dumpling, but my partner and I preferred the kimchi & pork soup dumpling since it was slightly spicy.

We also loved the shrimp & scallop dumpling, and wished we got another order since it only came with three dumplings.

The pan fried chicken pot stickers were also very good, with the filling having a nice meaty and chivey flavor.

I thought the zhajiang mian was pretty tasty, although my partner (half Korean) said the flavor was a bit different from a traditional zhajiang mian.

The salmon avocado fried rice was the least memorable. It wasn't bad, but we probably would another something else next time.

Overall, we really enjoyed Dumpling King and would come back again!

One of my favorites in the city! Their food is fresh, great quality and SO good. The staff is super friendly and the ambiance is so cozy.

We have been a few times and our favorites have been: hot and sour soup, bbq pork bao, sichuan spicy fried chicken & the custard buns.

Definitely worth checking out!

Everything tasted fresh. Great vegetarian options as mentioned by others. Have tried other dim sum places in the city that just didn't taste fresh.
