Nice restaurant located at the Pacific Pearl strip mall. Plenty of indoor and spacious outdoor seating. Staff is helpful and... friendly. They cut and split the huge pork knuckle ???? Food has lots of Shanghai specific specialties. Flavors are spot onShanghai flavors. Read more
Legitimately amazing. Very good and the waitress (Mimi) was an absolute treat! They also have a lovely patio got outdoor... seating. Nice for the cautious individual. The portions are rather big so we probably ordered too much but it was very good! Read more
Saw a picture of the dry sauteed string beans and based off that decided to check them out. They were so good I would return... just for them alone. While we were getting seated I saw a dish coming out of the kitchen and asked what it was "crispy noodles"and ordered those too. Very good, and they are crispy you'll need the serving utensils to cut them. Got an order of the twicecooked pork, very tasty and nice thin slices of pork. Lastly we tried the steamed pork bun these were our least favorite. Wecouldn't finish everything but would definitely go back. Since it's in the Pacific Pearl center there's plenty of parking. Wedidn't call ahead for reservations and didn't need them. Read more
Not good. Not worth the money. Not recommended. There are may better Shanghai restaurants in Bay Area. We first ordered old... shanghai pan fried bun, this is the worst. The wrap is half cooked, sticky and not fully proofed. The meat is just so so. Weinitially wanna try black pepper beef, but when we see this quality of bun we canceled the beef. They initially not let us doso. Food quality is definitely not worth the cost. Read more
Stars ONLY for the food amount and quality! From the times saving to visit this place on the occasion we’ve chosen mid autumn... festival and unfortunately got disappointed that almost walked out of the table without getting the order. Came for celebrationdinner around 7:00PM and got in line for the table. Got seated around 7:40 PM and made an order. The place was almost full withpeople coming and going. Drinks arrived with the lipstick on the glass. Eric, host, I apologize for the delay stating that thereare lots of online orders and them having only one chef on the floor. At around 8:15 PM we have started asking for the foodstatus when the place was more then half empty. At 8:30 PM, when we were about to walk out of the place with being a bitfrustrated, chef and we assume manager started bringing the food out. Meanwhile about 3-4 servers were peacefully chattingbehind the bar in front of us. Food wise, the place really worth every single bite of it. Light and flavored boiled fish canfeed 2-3 guests. Boiled beef would definitely need some side, cause the soup is sooo rich that you would not want to waste it.And in case you want to go late, just go with Shepherd‘s purse. Either one of these dishes can serve at least 2 guests. Insideseating is kind of odd due to the pandemic, however relatively authentic. Really did enjoy the outside fire pit. With that beingsaid will definitely be back and hopefully will increase the rating to the deserved stars once service improves Read more
Very good food. service, and ambiance overall. Good COVID safety precautions with well-spaced out tables and some outdoor... dining. The Shanghai dumplings and dumplings in chili oil were huge and delicious. The noodle dishes were plentiful with freshperfectly cooked noodles. Perfect place to stop after outlet shopping or fruit picking in Brentwood. Will definitely return totry more dishes. Read more
Not the best chinese food and dimsum we’ve had. The hot and sour soup was good, the combination fried rice was ok. The... dumplings in chili oil, shu mai and beef with scallions was a disappointment. The shu mai was all rice and hardly any meat ( youcan see the pictures), the beef with scallions was a tasteless version of mongolian beef, and the dumplings in chili oil has asweet taste and no flavor also. This restaurant is serving Shanghai style chinese food. I did not know the different styles ofchinese cooking but when I asked, the lady server said that Shanghai style are more on the sweet side than other chinese food. Iguess you live and learn. $72 down the drain. Read more
We had a very nice waitress! The food came out hot which was great and it we weren’t waiting too long after we ordered. We... ate the Shanghai stir fry noodles, an extra spicy noodle bowl with beef and salt and pepper fried pork. Everything was so sogood! Very much recommend :) Read more
