Tonight is the official reopening night for Dumplings Of Fury in The Junction! Thanks to Morgan for the tip after DOF soft-opened last night – proprietor Ben Jenkins then told us that after continuing the soft-open into lunchtime today, they would officially reopen for dinner tonight. Three weeks ago, he told WSB that DOF was “super close” to reopening in its expanded space at California/Oregon – months after closing for what at the time was expected to only be a matter of weeks.

Tonight the restaurant will likely stay open a bit later, until 10ish, and then they’ll decide when to open tomorrow, but by Sunday they’re expecting to settle into the regular 11 am-9
pm hours (closed Mondays). What’s new, besides the expanded space? Potstickers and a gluten-free Szechuan sauce, we’re told. (Added) Here’s the menu:

    I have been happily awaiting this day since I saw the menu of their other location and they told me this items would be here after the expansion!  I will definitely make this our take out this week!  Always a consistent and delicious favorite!  Eeeeeeeeeek!!!!!!

    Is the new spot kid friendly like the old one?  Also, is there an adult beverage menu?

    • Int January 29, 2022 (6:49 pm)

      They do have drafts and mixed drinks available

          It’s only missing a dance floor.

    Very exciting!

    Hurrah! So excited for their reopening and bigger menu!!

    I’ve never eaten here, but would like to.  What are people’s favorites?

    • Spatley January 29, 2022 (7:52 pm)

      The tofu bao sandwiches are my do-not-miss

    I appreciate this business and the humor in the name and reference. However,  how is this not cultural appropriation?

      Im curious, are you saying only Asian people can own businesses that sell Asian food?  Does that fit across the board in your eyes?  Momma Leones with an Italian flag 🇮🇹 should only be run by Italians?

      Oh geez here we go…1st it was the font of their sign now this! Can’t we just be happy that it is a good restaurant that serves up tasty little morsels of food?!

      This would be more constructive if you described how you think this is cultural appropriation and what culture it is appropriating.  There is no way to constructively answer the question as asked.  A negative can not be proven.  As you phrased your  comment it looks more like virtue signaling than an honest question.  The burden of proof lies on the accuser.

    • NotOnHolden January 30, 2022 (5:42 pm)

      What exactly is the question of this being “cultural appropriation”  based upon?  Are you making assumptions because a Ben Jenkins is quoted?  The Washington Secretary of State site is open to the public to go take a look.  Maybe go digging before making bad faith statements?

    Fried chicken bao…get in my belly!!!

  • Michael Bloom January 29, 2022 (10:01 pm)

    Happy,  Happy,  Joy,  Joy, Happy,  Happy…Joy ,Joy….JOY.

    Had the opportunity to dine in the their news digs last night. Awesome food and service from Ben and his crew!

  • WS Res January 30, 2022 (12:30 pm)

    Can we place orders by phone for pick-up? 

  • Steve Alki January 30, 2022 (12:52 pm)

    Great food!!! 

  • WS Res January 30, 2022 (3:54 pm)

    My partner went over there today at about 12:45 to hopefully get take-out for our lunch – and no one was there!  😭  Dumplings owner(s), if you’re out there, please tell us if you have a social media account we should follow for news of last-minute things (I know staffing and other stuff can be a pain these days).

      How frustrating! They’re on instagram, but they haven’t updated it in a year. Their website still says they’re closed as of last May. I agree that they should update that as they can. 

Sorry, comment time is over.
