Restaurant and bathroom are clean. Open decor with good natural light.

Serve shanghai dim sum, egg sandwiches, noodle soup. Star for me was the noodle soup. The noodles were perfectly cooked and brought me back to China. Prices were fair

“I did order online and pick up! I got their friend shrimp and egg chive pockets and they were just to die for! So freaking good! The veggie potstickers were good too, not too exciting though. My husband loved bao buns he got. Would love to come again and actually dine in!“

“Our fav Shanghai place to eat, best Suanlatang, xiaolongbao, Shanghai baozi. Very nice staff and the cook is so friendly. Small town feel at this spot. We have been coming here for many years.“

“I celebrated the Chinese New Year’s Day dinner with my friends here. Love the vibe and food here. It gets very busy so the service isn’t the best but we had no complaints and we understood that they were trying their best.

They have a great selections of different Shanghainese food or Cantonese and Sichuan food. The pig pots of soups are a must in my opinion. And the most famous 東坡肉.

Make sure to make a reservation ahead of time for special occasions. If you have a big group I recommend having the private room because they seem so nice.

Highly recommended.“

“We came late. Hour before closing so yes we had to rush to get what we wanted even tho it was our first time. And oh my gosh !!! Everything was toooo delicious 🤤 everything. And I need to go back and try more“

“If you're a fan of authentic dumpling houses and bold flavors, this spot is a must-visit! 👍😋💯 It’s a small, unassuming hole-in-the-wall, but don’t let the size fool you the food is phenomenal. 🍜🤤👏 We ordered a variety of dishes, and each one delivered big on taste. 🥟🥢😋

I had the spicy fried rice (pro tip: it comes with chicken, even though it doesn’t say so on the menu). 🔥🌶️🍚 The flavor from the hot chili oil and black salted beans was out of this world. 🌎🌟✨ We also enjoyed the xiaolongbao (soup dumplings), which were perfectly done. 💯😋👍

What really surprised me was the sautéed cabbage with Thai chili peppers so simple, yet packed with incredible flavor. 🥬🌶️🔥 The beef soup was hearty, and the spicy chicken dish with Sichuan and chili peppers brought the heat in all the right ways. 🍲🐔🌶️

Customer service was great, and the whole experience exceeded expectations. 💯😊👍 I will definitely be back. 🥳😋👏“

“This place seriously deserves Michelin-star level recognition ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐

We finally found the most original and authentic taste of 大合卤味— a flavor we’ve missed and thought about consistently for so many years. Every dish was packed with rich, comforting flavors and that authentic traditional homemade feeling that is so hard to find nowadays.

The beef noodle soup was absolutely AMAZING — the broth was deep, flavorful, and perfectly balanced with just the right amount of spice and aroma. The beef was unbelievably tender, juicy, and practically melted in the mouth. One of the best beef noodle soups I’ve had in a very long time.

The signature dish is an absolute MUST-ORDER for every table! Once you try it, you’ll understand why everyone keeps coming back. The 卤味 dishes were also outstanding — packed with flavor, perfectly marinated, and incredibly addictive. You can truly taste the care and quality in every bite.

What shocked us even more was the price — very affordable, yet the quality and flavors honestly felt Michelin-star level. It’s rare to find a place that delivers this level of authentic Taiwanese comfort food at such a reasonable price.

Honestly, every dish we ordered was so yummy and beautifully prepared. This restaurant feels like a hidden gem with Michelin-level flavors and presentation. Definitely coming back again and highly recommended for anyone craving authentic Taiwanese comfort food! 😍🍜“

“Just checked out the menu and you will know it's authentic shanghainese cuisine. Prices are reasonable, the taste is amazing. The place is quite small, they don't take reservations. I always like to go a little before dinner time, If you don't want wait. I noticed they do a lot of takeouts. My favorites are sea cucumber, eel, and stir fry rice cake with cabbage... Also the brace pork it's amazing.“

“We had the best experience at Mama Lu’s Dumpling House, this is one of those spots where you have to come hungry because you’ll want to try everything on the menu.

We ordered a little bit of everything, and every single dish delivered. The fried rice was perfectly seasoned and super comforting, with that classic wok flavor that makes it hard to stop eating. The vegetable dumplings were fresh, light, and packed with flavor, honestly some of the best we’ve had. The pancake had that ideal crispy-on-the-outside, soft-on-the-inside texture and was so satisfying. The string beans were cooked perfectly with just the right amount of seasoning, and the eggplant was good, melt-in-your-mouth vibe.

Beyond the food, the atmosphere really stood out. It’s cozy and welcoming, but still spacious enough to comfortably bring a big group, perfect for families or catching up with friends. One thing we really appreciated is that they don’t rush you out. You can actually sit, enjoy your meal, and take your time, which makes the whole experience feel even better.

The service was amazing from start to finish. Everyone was so kind, patient, and genuinely attentive. You can tell they really care about making sure you have a great experience. Shoutout to Nana (the manager) for being so awesome!

Overall, this is a spot we’ll definitely keep coming back to. Amazing food, warm atmosphere, and top tier service, what more could you ask for?“

“This is a New Shanghai No. 1 with new wall paper and lighting. However I like the old look better.
The new menu seems less items than before.
The dishes are more salty overall.
It's okay for just a casual meal.
