I can’t really understand why other people are giving this place 4 stars or better? The food is totally unimpressive. The woman cleaning was wearing gloves to protect herself… I watched her clean a table, then come over and handle my dishes and food with the same dirty gloves. Yuck.

Shanghai Dumpling has great soup and pan fried dumplings! Best Shanghainese food in the area. They have a huge menu that caters to all the best Chinese food including dim sum on top of all their other food. Their lotus wrapped sticky rice is great considering its the only place that does night dim sum in the area. The workers are kind and quite easygoing.Vegetarian options: There is the option to eat rice with the non-meat dishes like spicy tofu or green beans but I wouldn’t say it’s vegetarian focused or a great vegetarian experience

The sweet snd sour chicken is incredible. The chicken fried rice is bland and the chicken came out raw. We sent it back to get cooked further and it was still raw. The potstickers were undercooked and soggy. The shanghai soup pork dumplings were alright, not really authentic. They are clearly frozen.

This is hands down one of the best Shanghai restaurants for lunch in the bay. I've tried other popular ones and their food is nowhere close to this place. The sticky rice roll is made to order where other places were already made beforehand so it's usually dry and hard texture. The Chinese donut is crispy outside and soft inside vs other places are just full of dough in and out. Their xiao long bao is not bad where the meat and soup lack the fresh flavors but still better than most restaurants.Their savory soymilk is always consistent and just enough flavor and sweet soymilk is also good. They have most of the traditional Shanghainese dishes and I've been coming here for lunch at least once a month. Quality and service are always consistent and the wait is not bad if you come during peak hours. Out of all the Chinese restaurants, I always come back to this place and try something new. The price is affordable, the total is usually around $40-50 for 3 people after tips. Parking is easy and free. Definitely give this place a try and you'll come out in a food coma from their large portions.
The soup dumplings here are so good. We had the pork soup dumplings and beef with bok choy and mushrooms, which was also very good. I would recommend everything here.Vegetarian options: They have many vegetable dishes and tofu substitute for many meat dishes.

The dumplings are very good. Other dishes were good. We didn't get the stir-fry garlic green beans this time and regretted that; they are good, too. The restaurant could use a bit of brightening up, but it's clean.
The worst and most bland, watery chicken curry and flavorless chicken chow mein I've ever had and we eat a lot of Chinese! We walked here from our hotel after ordering the food for take out. Luckily we ordered the pot stickers and Shanghai egg rolls too and those weren't bad. Food all looked good but it was pretty awful.

Ordered the Shanghai stir fry noodles and pork pan fried buns for takeout. Reasonable price and reasonable portion size. Personal preference for pan fried buns is more meat to bun, but I know some people prefer more bun. Stir fry noodles yummy, not too salty, but could use a touch more sauce. But I prefer slightly less over more like how most other restaurants do it.Seems like they only have a few dine in tables so if you want to eat in, come early.
