    Great local spot for Shanghai food with fast service and attentive staff. The noodle soups were good and had a decent selection to choose from. The soup dumplings could have been better but it definitely satisfied the craving. The crabmeat and tofu was nice and hearty and paired well with the fried rice. The place is a little smaller than other spots but it's still a good casual spot to go for a decent and quick meal.

    I always order their scallop and pork soup dumplings whenever I visit. The fish head soup is another one of my favorites, but you will need to come with at least 4-6 guests to finish the soup. The food is made fresh to order and service is quick. A few other dishes I recommend are the wonton in peanut sauce, salt and pepper prawns, and stir fried rice cake.

    My cousins and I stopped by for dinner around 7:30pm. We were told there would be about a 15 minute wait for a table of 3. Inside the restaurant, there were only 7 tables, 6 of them were for groups of 4 and one was a large round table in the back. There were some seats to wait outside, or you can stand in the street to wait. Due to the size of the restaurant, they only allow reservations for 7 people and up. As you wait for you food, they bring out hot tea for the table. You can order other drinks like boxed tea/juices, soy milk, or soda for an additional charge if you desire. We ordered for our group of 3: - 1 pint size (small bowl) of hot and sour soup ($2.95) - jellyfish ($9.95) - fried wontons in peanut & hot sauce ($10.95) - eggplant with garlic sauce ($12.95) - crab and pork soup dumplings ($10.95) - 1 bowl of rice ($2) The hot and sour soup was very flavorful. It was definitely sour and boiling hot, but not spicy as you would think. It was very on par with what you would think as hot and sour soup. The jellyfish was interesting. I was used to seeing jellyfish that was more yellow and a bit softer. This jellyfish as best as I can describe it, was a bit, crunchy. Not in a bad way, but just different than what I am used to and lacked flavor. My cousins seemed to enjoy it though so it is definitely due to taste preference. The fried wontons were DELICIOUS! If anything, get this for sure! It was so yummy, the wontons had pork in it and it was juice on the inside, but crispy on the outside. The peanut sauce had a sugar coating on it that made it very unique. The hot sauce wasn't very hot, it was more so like a chili sweet sauce. The plate consisted about 8 wontons approximately. The eggplant with garlic sauce reminded me of my childhood. The flavors were on point and the wood ear was a pleasant surprise. You definitely need a bowl of rice to eat it with because it was sauce and a little salty without it. As for the crab and pork dumplings, it was good. The xiao long bao order had 8 large soup dumplings. They give you a pair of tongs to grab them. You can taste the pork and the crab meat and it was very juicy. The skin of the dumpling was thin, but not so much that it broke apart when picking it up. FYI, the bowl of rice was fairly large that you can definitely share without another person. Great little hole in the wall dumpling place that accepts card without a service charge, though cash is always preferred. The service was friendly and quick. There is a good amount of street parking that didn't seem too hard to find for us, though we had a lot of parking luck that day. Overall, come check them out if you're in the neighborhood! Delicious food with very affordable prices!
