Dumpling Dojo

About Us

The owner stopped by a table not long after Dumpling Dojo Hackensack opened, and told the guests something that stuck: everything here is made from scratch. The dough. The sauces. Every last component. That kind of commitment is rare, and diners have noticed, pushing the restaurant to a 4.6-star rating within weeks of opening.

Step inside and the first thing you notice is the mural art covering the walls, giving the space a personality that matches the food. The menu centers on handcrafted dumplings bathed in house-made sauces, signature fusion rice bowls, and ramen built with real depth. Servers like Calvin and Jesse have already become regulars' favorites, the kind of staff who read a table, make smart recommendations, and make the whole meal feel intentional.

This is Asian fusion done with discipline. Not gimmicks, not shortcuts. Just skilled cooking and a room worth sitting in, right on South Summit Ave in Bergen County.

What We Offer

Dine-in at Dumpling Dojo is the full experience: mural art, attentive service, and a menu that rewards exploration.

"Jesse was great, from the moment you walk in to the moment you leave the attention to customer, immaculate. The food was amazing, steamed dumplings were bathed in this delicious sauce. The Pork belly was nice and crunchy. The General Tso Bowl, let me tell you something. If this isnt one of the best General Tso & Fried Rice Ive had in a a while Id be lying. Theres something really special in that Fried Rice, Chicken has got a nice crunch even when sauced up."

"Wow, such amazing food at this new Hackensack spot! Got to talking to the owner when he stopped by to check on our food and he told us that everything is made from scratch — every sauce, the dough, etc. — nothing is premade from the food service companies (having worked in food service many years ago, you’d be surprised that some restaurant food is typically purchased premade and just cooked and served on site). We had the short rib bao buns and the General Tso’s dumplings, both of which were fantastic. Dove into the bao buns before we thought to snap a pic but did take one of the dumplings."

"The steam dumplings are on point. Fresh and sauce they are tossed in, is delicious. I ordered the chicken, general tsao, pork and vegetable dumplings. All dumplings were filled and none were not skimped on. Owner & staff are very friendly. They helped me navigate the menu and answered all my questions plus gave some recommendations for what was popular for future orders. Thanks guys A+ can't wait to try the other dishes."
