One of the best Shanghainese restaurants in the Los Angeles area for over 10-15 years, and most dishes are pretty authentic Shanghai dishes. We cannot go back to Shanghai anytime, but this restaurant has served some of our favorite Shanghai dishes.We are surprised this restaurant is not as busy as in the good old days. The major reason for losing dining customers is due to the Covid19 pandemic, and also could be the outdated 140 San Gabriel Square Shopping Mall on Valley Blvd. There are about 4-5 waitresses provide the excellence service for customers.
With friends, they ordered all sorts of tasty items.Great service
It’s my first time having xiaolongbao without soup in there, super dry.
I was invited to a birthday party here and it was wonderful. This is authentic Chinese cooking (no Panda Express here). The atmosphere is bright and cheery and the wait staff is attentive and accommodating. Since I didn't pay for the food, I'm not sure about the prices but the place was very busy.
HORRIBLE PLACE. Terrible food and even worst management. DONT EVER COME HERE and especially don’t book their private room. They take advantage and over charge you. BEWARE
While visiting LA, we knew we had to visit a Shanghai see restaurant as my family is Shanghai see and we haven't been able to go back and visit in years. In general, the cuisine is pretty authentically Shanghainese and in general it was quite delicious though a few dishes we ordered were just okay. The star of the show is the rice cakes with crab - make sure you order this dish! We also loved being able to converse with the waitstaff in Shanghainese, and everyone was very helpful and kind. We'll definitely visit again next time we're in LA!
My mom likes going there. The flavor is good. This is a Shanghainese restaurant, which means the food will be slightly sweet because that's just Shanghainese flavor. I personally don't much care for that.
A very homey restaurant, one where families share a meal, food is very warm and classic. Huge menu, my friend took me here and the winter melon soup was something I would get at a friends house, the seaweed fish is very good. I would come back and try the Shang hai dumplings.
Do not eat there the service is horrible. Today New year's day we when to eat there & ordered many dishes one of them was Xiao long bao, took a long time to get all the foods but did not get any ginger slice only an empty small dish with it. I put vinegar on the small dish & ask for ginger slice. The waitress have the nerve to say I am using the dish they cannot get ginger slice to me. I said it's a big restaurant you don't have more small dishes to put ginger slice on it. You want me to empty the vinegar & give you the dish to get ginger slice. Ridiculous. When we were finished & asking for the bills, we have to wait several minutes, just to get their attention to come to our table. They also took a long time to come back with the visa card bill. The point is they are not that busy, only customers in 3 to 4 tables, including us at that time and have 6 to 8 empty tables. Their prices are not cheap.
Decent food, the price is a little bit high. Also the beef wasn’t the best

The food and service is good. It is Reasonable pricing. The restaurant decorations are very nice for the holidays. Good place to have a great meal.
Food was okay. Maybe good for those who have not tried shanghai food. I think the flavor could be more authentic. The price was okay, not too expensive.
Very good Shanghai style food ? if you never tried Chinese-Shanghai style food here is good place to start.
Decent but not amazing; there are better, more authentic restaurants in Cerritos
Very good authentic Shanghai style food.
