About Shanghai Restaurant

Shanghai Restaurant in San Gabriel has been a well-known establishment for Shanghainese cuisine in the Los Angeles area for over a decade. The restaurant offers authentic Shanghai dishes, including a highly recommended eel dish. Pricing is considered fair for the quality and quantity of food served. The restaurant is not as busy as it used to be, potentially due to the Covid-19 pandemic and the outdated mall location. Service is attentive, with multiple waitresses serving customers. While some customers have praised the food for its authenticity and flavor, others have found it disappointing, with criticisms of overly sweet dishes and subpar squid. The soup dumplings and beef with onions were mentioned as particularly noteworthy, while the shredded tofu with pork and fried buns were highlights for some. The service is described as fine, with a moderate wait time.
