Great experience ordering from here! Food arrived hot, well-packaged, and tasted amazing. The soup dumplings were juicy and flavorful, and the pan-fried buns had a perfect crispy bottom. Portions were solid and everything felt fresh. Definitely one of my go-to spots on DoorDash now!

Yall I couldn't even post the food because it was so freaking good that I devoured it. Wow, so fresh like the rice alone is just *chefs kiss* and the fried chicken and pork chops? The flavors are like dancing in my mouth and it's so much food I even put some away for seconds. Great job on the portions. Absolutely delightful this is now my new favorite spot. Hats off to the chef

Excellent food. The kitchen staff knows exactly what they are doing. Nothing was overpowering, everything had intention and place to express themselves. Quite a good find this establishment is. Highly recommend to all food connoisseurs. Don't pass on the Shanghai Scallion Oil Noodles, one of the best noodle dishes I've had in a long time.

A little disappointed with the amount for the price. The pork belly was pretty dry, but came with quail eggs, which was fun. Sheng Jian (Pan Fried Soup Dumplings) were juicy and crispy and very good.

I had good hopes for this place, instead of having to drive to Plano or further for good Chinese food.
The soup Traditional Shanghai Juicy Steamed Pork Dumplings and Shanghai Scallion Pancake were both good (although the dumpling wrapper was a little too thick). But the Shanghai Fried Rice and Shanghai Fried Noodles were SO disappointing! There was no flavor at all. The pictures you see on the app are what the food looked like but it was all just color and no flavor. Very disappointed since this was our Thanksgiving dinner. And for the price of the rice and noodles dish ($17 each!!!) versus their flavor? Definitely NOT worth it.
I won't be ordering from this restaurant again. That's too bad, I really wanted to like them.
