I got the pork dumplings with cabbage and they were amazing! Simple but nonetheless very tasty. Also super friendly staff!

We had the soup dumplings, shrimp har gao, kim chee dumplings, some rice and steamed mushroom and egg custard buns. All were good. The kim chee dumplings were maybe a little under steamed, but still wonderful. Fully cooked on the inside they just seemed like the noodle outside could use a touch more cooking. Food wise I loved it. Seating was a problem though as it is very limited and they didn't have a restroom on-site.

Great food and reasonable price! The soup dumplings is so juicy, the free bun that came with the dumplings order is so soft. The bean curd pork noodle is made of wonton noodles, what an amazing combination. You can see timer set for each order so each order are cooked just right. No tips needed, really an awesome, honest shop with great food!

I have given 5 stars to only five restaurants on Planet Earth in my long life. They are in Barcelona, San Francisco, Santa Barbara, London, Porto . . .and, now, in Berkeley!
I never dreamed a "fast-food" kitchen might earn that distinction, but the folks at Dumpling Express on Bowditch make exquisitely tasty, joyously fresh dumplings. I'm guessing you'll agree :-)

Good food, only complaint is that the dumpling wrap is a bit thick on the tops.

Dumplings are perfect. But the kung pao chicken rice is a little too salty.

The dumplings is pretty good and you can see they are making it fresh right there. That is the only thing I would order from this restaurant. I tried their rice dishes too but found that it is over seasoned and a bit hard for me to finish the dish. The place is pretty busy though as there are quite a few Asian students in UCB. There are some seats but not many. Also the cashier is not very friendly. In short, I would only go there when I have a hankering for dumplings.

The Dumplings are delicious and the price is great. I got the daily special for $6. However, I usually eat a tiny breakfast and a big lunch and the portion wasn't quite big enough for me. Next time I'll probably order two items. Absolutely delicious though.
