I can’t seem to find what’s wrong with this place. Food is delicious, service is fine and generally every time I visit this place, the food is consistently the same quality (good).

A great restaurant in terms of taste and flavour, just misrepresented on media.

Service complaints are kinda normal but that feels kind of strange.

We went for dinner with elderly family members, and the service was very poor.

Seven of us were given three small tables and told to squeeze in. When we asked for an extra table, the senior waiter said they first needed to see how many dishes we ordered. Only after we insisted did she add a table, which stayed unused by anyone else the whole evening.

Very disappointing and embarrassing in front of our guests—I won’t be returning.

This was our first visit to the restaurant, and unfortunately, it did not live up to our expectations. We were very disappointed with the overall food quality.

The Noodles with Meat Sauce were overly salty and lacked depth of flavor.

The Ribbon Fish arrived hot and crispy, but again, the salt level was overwhelming—so much so that we couldn't taste the fish at all, only salt.

The Pork in Brown Sauce with Buns was the most disappointing dish. The meat was extremely fatty and bland, as if it had just been boiled and topped with a flavorless brown sauce. It lacked the richness and seasoning expected from this classic dish.

The only item that was remotely acceptable was the Hot & Sour Soup, which was just average.

We came looking for a relaxing and authentic Shanghainese dining experience, but instead left with a mouthful of salt and a strong need for water. We check out with all the food untouched on the table. Overall, a very disappointing experience.

We have 6 people dining in. We were quite late, no need to wait, however it is nearly last order time. We have ordered several dishes. Not all the dishes were great. The fried noodle, the wet noodle and chicken dish was good. The rest might need some work to strive for a higher quality. Overall, it is quite nice that they still accommodate us as it is a holiday, the chefs and the staffs are to be off on time for the event.

Came for dinner tonight and food were amazing! The Xiao Long Bao is excellent and definitely beats the Din Tai Fung when it comes to price and quantity. Definitely coming back!!!

Used to be my favorite restaurant. Recent visit I realized that a lot of their food are pre made now. They heat up and serve, not even any flavor in the meat, food not even hot enough. Please stop doing this, I come to eat outside is because I don't want to cook. What's the reason that a restaurant doesn't want to cook?????
