We'll be steering toward SoMa this week for made-to-order dumplings and beers at the much-anticipated Dumpling Time.

Opening Friday, May 19, the restaurant is headed up by Kash Feng, the Omakase Group restaurateur responsible for Okane and the one-Michelin-starred Omakase. This new project focuses on Asian dishes with a California twist, intended to be paired with both local and Japanese beers on tap.

Inside, you can watch the dumpling-making process—all are done by hand—and hang out at large communal tables. Neon signs and sketches of cityscapes make for casual neighborhood vibes.
