Authentic delicious Shanghai food in a memorable setting, truly local food and great service as well!
It place in the shopping mall, very easy to find a parking spot, inside of the restaurant has pretty nice environment,the taste and product are pretty good。
Great dimsim place, always love the fried rice and wonton noodles. The service was excellent--they constantly refilled our water and provided enough napkins, and they also changed our plates. The environment was very clean. The only downside is the long wait on weekends, so it's best to make a reservation online in advance.
Checked out this restaurant because I wanted soup dumplings. The interior is really pretty and they even have a private room for larger parties. We ordered the cold chicken appetizer, soup dumplings, fried bun, and scallion oil noodles. The prices are decent for what it is but the dishes are a smaller portion. The xiao long bao had a lot of soup but the pork meat was smaller and lacked flavor that other XLB places have.The fried buns were hot and fresh and juicy but are smaller than usual, the dough didn't have much flavor. The cold chicken appetizer was good with the soy sauce and oil. The scallion noodles were salty and oily and can use more scallion oil. The restaurant filled up and some people had to wait for a table. Not the best XLB place but good prices.
I love their Sheng Jian Bao (Pan-Fried Pork Buns) so much. Crispy on the bottom, soft on top, and filled with juicy, flavorful pork. Must try it!
