Really enjoyed the dinner here. We had a group of 4 and shared a few dumpling dishes to start. The pork and chive dumplings were... amazing! Parking is a little tight as this area is very congested. There is a parking complex behind the restaurant that charges$2/hr. I had the Chinese sausage fried rice and really enjoyed my meal. The food comes out very fast! Order drinks and appsfirst before main courses. Read more
I think I am safely going to jump the gun and give this place 5 stars. I've tried so little, but I want to come back and try... much more! I sampled a couple things and already got full, but I could smell everything around me and it's smelled great.Glancing at other tables I could see how appetizing everything looked, matching the aroma throughout the restaurant. The popularXLB, soup dumplings with pork were a good change of pace to the familiar dumpling. The beef curry dumplings were delicious aswell as the pickled cucumber salad; simple but tasty. 3 bucks extra you can get the spicy soup and it's a great deal, flavorfuland it's quite large so you can share. The place always seems to be busy, but it didn't take us long at all to find a table andorder. Free parking is usually limited but they have a paid structure near the restaurant. I?ve passed this place up for yearsgoing to other restaurants, but I am glad that I finally chose this place to test. Next visit we will get full on meals and trythe other options on the menu and I could only assume the food gets better from there. Read more
5 star for sure but the Calamari dish was horrible. The flour based batter tasted only like flour. The Calamari was... chewy. Other than that Shanghai Saloon always delivers with food, efficiency and ambiance. The mood.was rushed when we gotthere but it was definitely controlled chaos. There is never a long wait. Servers are friendly and helpful. We got chopsticksbut most needed forks. When we asked we got them ASAP. Dumplings are still on point even with all the competition around them. Convoy St is quickly becoming San Diego's unofficial Asian Town. Read more
Best Chinese and Asian food in San Diego. Great price, fresh and quality ingredients and huge portions! Orange chicken is made... with real chicken tender meat and great flavor, large shrimp for honey shrimp. Was so stuffed we wanted to try cashew chickenwhich looked so great coming out of kitchen but we were stuffed. Going to be back very soon. Read more
