“I came here on Chinese New Year with my family and it was packed. We had to wait in line for about an hour before they opened because otherwise we'd have to wait. I'm not surprised about the line and wait because the food was very good at a reasonable price. I will come back again!“

“Each table orders through a QR code without having to speak to the waiters. The menu has good variety and the food comes out fast! Their vegetable dishes are good and they do have some good vegetarian options of noodles, rice, dumplings, etc. For me, the one thing that would bump up the overall rating to 5 stars, is more vegetarian/plant based protein like tofu.“

“Amazing food and fantastic service! You'll love this family owned restaurant. The food was delicious, good quality, and fresh - I forgot to take pictures though. Highly recommend the smoked fish, eel in brown sauce, Shanghai ribs, and the fried buns! Definitely support this local business.“

“Pretty amazing section style cuisine! The spicy beef noodle soup , Dan Dan noodles, scallion pancakes, and Xiaongnbao were among the very best we've ever had. Okay prices and plenty of parking. Give them a try, you will not be disappointed.“

“I just love this place. The manager is just terrific, she is sweet, kind, and amazing. They are a small restaurant, but everything comes out with love and is delicious. We also order about 5 bags of frozen XLB anytime we are in town to visit family. The food, people make this place 10 stars!“

“Thought it would just be a quick bite of Shanghai Pork Ribs Glutinous Rice Cakes, but flipping through the menu felt like a trip back to Shanghai—each dish a deep-rooted memory!Even so, we went all out and ordered a bunch of dishes. Each one was authentically Shanghai, and I especially recommend the Wine Chicken. Honestly, wanted to try everything on the menu. The Pork Ribs Glutinous Rice Cakes, originally the main attraction, took a back seat. Auntie even brought spicy soy sauce and hot chili powder from Shanghai—selling the sauce for $6 a bottle. The chili powder isn't for sale, but she'll give it to you. Added a new item to the wishlist: Conquer their entire menu!“

“Haven't been back here since it's been sold from two owners ago. The switch to Shanghai cuisine is nice! I like the way the 馬蘭頭 (Indian Aster) was finely chopped. It's the smallest I've seen anywhere! The 油爆蝦 was cut down the middle to better let the oils get all the way in, making the skin really crisp! Their 外灘香酥鴨 ("Outer Beach" Crisp-Fried duck) was really good. It looked like it would have been dried out, but the juices stayed inside, and still maintained a crispy skin. The 蔥烤立魚 (Scallion-grilled Snapper) was alright, it featured a sweet-soy sort of taste, that smothered the entire fish with. The 紅燒肉 (Red-braised Pork) is pretty standard, but still good! Just make sure to be ready for the Heart attack! Then we topped it off with the 白果污泥甜湯 (Gingko + Tarot Puree Dessert Soup).Parking: Shared with the Tasty Choice. Be careful of parking at the back. Not sure if it belongs to a Chinese church or not.“

“Wow! Just happened to stop in with my family. We loved it! Cucumber salad was my first bite and the best I had in years. Eating Asian food daily it's hard to find a new spot and we wish we lived closer because we would come weekly. We also had dumplings, noodle soup and the meat was so tender and falls apart. When we come to southern CA my family and I will definitely make sure we stop here again. Such a great find! Highly recommend!!“

“Good option for takeout. Subpar for inside dining. Small mom/pop operation. Can be excessively oily, just ask for "little oil". Food is good and generous portions. Orange chicken very good so is Kung Pao chicken. Sweet and sour pork totally different than usual. Pork pieces are boned in super thick, rich, sweet, dark red sauce... Scrumptious!! Have also tried their hot and sour soup, which is also very good. Would definitely recommend for an evening takeout dinner.“

“Our fav Shanghai restaurant closed, and our search for a new one brings us here. The rice cakes and seaweed fish was very very good. I so enjoyed lunch w/my friend that I brought my fam back for dinner the same week. The lion's head soup and green beans were delicious. We will be back to try more dishes. This mom pop establishment has friendly service but is limited in english. I suggest to take a look at the menu prior to arrival and then point to what you want on the english menu. A must try if you looking for good Shanghai!“

“I came here with my parent's Shanghainese friends and loved all of the food. We ordered enough to fill our whole table and the total was much, much less than I expected. I think there was a full meal x 2 we took to go with us because we couldn't eat more.My favorites:* Pork belly (YUM) - pair it with some rice* Crab * I don't remember the name... but it was a mix of noodles, meat, and veggies (in Chinese, it starts with "jiao") * Chrysanthemum TeaThis place is pretty well-lit, lively - your typical Asian sit-down restaurant (think Capital Seafood).Service was solid - never had to wait too long for someone to come by and check on us. Everyone was friendly and helpful. The parking lot isn't well-lit, so if you come at night, keep an eye out!“

“I went to buy takeout on chinese new year. the long queue of lines compared to the restaurant next door was a telling sign the food here must be good. We ordered the beef chow fun and fish fillets. They were still warm and tasty by the time I brought it home. My parents liked the food at this location. We definitely want to come back here to try more of the dishes when we have another family gathering. The waiter that helped take my order was kind even with all the chaos of the chinese new year. My order took a little bit longer to come back due to the large crowds but I was able to run other errands and come back for my food on time when my food was ready.“

“It is by far the most authentic shanghai food I’ve had here.I definitely recommend getting the Shanghai fried rice cake, it is so worth it and so good.The people working here is also very nice, reminds me of shanghai neighbors :)I also ordered a shanghai style rib, along with the dishes shown in the image. The portion size is quite big, couldn’t finish with two people“

“This place isn't the bestest dumpling house I have eaten, but I heard a lot of good reviews, so I thought to come here to take a visit.Parking can get hard because there are a lot of food and other places shared in the plaza, so do come with some time to spare for parking. There is additional parking underground as well though! (free parking!)The place is located on the first floor, easy to spot.I had quite a few of their dishes (remember these are personal preferences as my taste my obviously differ) including regular juicy pork dumplings (5/5), salty egg dumplings (0/5) -i like salty eggs and its related flavor snacks, but this is just not it, spicy wonton (5/5), beef noodle soup (4/5), their dry noodle with sauce (4/5) - I do love that it came with a side of soup that you can either dip the noodles in or drink it, beef pot stickers (4/5).I do like their spicy line of food, they make it spicy but not too spicy. Enough kick for the road!Overall I had a great experience, however it wasn't the best food in my opinion as I had better.The place does not have AC, the day I went was about 90 degrees, and only the door was open, I wished they had AC turned on or a fan, i was sweating while eating the hots.The owner of the place is Shanghainese, and you can catch him speak with the customers in Shanghainese which is cute, and makes me wish i also speak it so i can have casual conversation about food and this place with him. They do speak Mandarin, so that helps since I can communicate with them. But for regular customers since the servers and owner don't really speak English it makes it harder.I would totally come back here again though!“

“Food here is very good. Really can't complain with anything . However , service can be slow . I think it has something to do with just certain staff knowing to speak English so you kinda have to wait for that staff to free up. Other than that , I would still go back and eat here .“
