“Tasty food with superb prices as well as attentive, friendly service. delectable soup dumplings with juicy tender meat wrapped in a chewy doughy wrapper are so appetizing.... I also love the location of the restaurant.“

“The food was absolutely delicious! We had chicken lo mein, soup dumplings, and sweet and sour chicken (with sauce on the side - our preference.) They have plenty of seating, good service, and the food came out in good timing and was very fresh and hot. We also received hot tea when we were seated. 10/10 recommend!“

“This restaurant, and it's sister restaurant in Chinatown are my favorites in NYC. I've tasted soup dumplings in so many places in the States and elsewhere but the Pork & Crab soup dumplings here remain the best I've ever had the pleasure of tasting!“

“Got the pork belly which was honestly one of the best dishes I’ve had - beautiful taste and fall apart in your mouth ! The cucumber salad was great and refreshing and the rabbit deserts were delightful ! Very fast and prompt service with lovely and nice waiters !! Would highly recommend !“

“Shanghai Villa is a fantastic family-owned restaurant with incredible food and genuinely kind people. The food is fresh, flavorful, and made with care. The family who runs it is incredibly kind and welcoming. Highly recommend supporting this wonderful small business!“

“I just want to say this I think about this place often. I no longer live in NYC but I used to come here all the time for soup dumplings. I haven't been in awhile but those soup dumplings were so amazing I think about this place all the time. No where near me sells them. I miss this place. Come here and have soup dumplings. They're phenomenal.“

“Food is excellent! Service is great.“

“Din Tai Fung has been a long-time favorite of mine, and I’ve visited their locations across Asia more times than I can count. So, I was really looking forward to the opening of this NYC location. It took some time, but as soon as I walked in, I could see why. This isn’t like the more casual branches I’m used to – they’ve gone all out, creating a stunning space that’s perfect for a special night out. Though it’s a large venue, it feels intimate, and the table arrangement makes conversations easy. Service was excellent; our waiter was excited to introduce us to the restaurant and stayed attentive throughout the meal.

Now, the food! We tried two varieties of their signature xiaolongbao – the traditional pork and the pork and crab. Both were superb and just as good as what you’d find in Asia. The paper-thin wrappers are some of the best I’ve had outside of the Pacific, with great flavor and delicious soup inside. The pork chop fried rice was also outstanding – tender, juicy pork served over perfectly cooked fried rice. We also enjoyed the seaweed and tofu salad, which was a great starter. I did miss the wild vegetable tofu and sesame oil salad I’ve had in Asia, but I imagine it might be due to ingredient availability here. Prices are a bit higher than their Asian branches, but for me, the atmosphere and quality were worth it. I’ll definitely be back.

Note: Unlike other locations, this one is reservation-only.“

“This is my third time here and it's been great every time!I order the soup dumplings and beef ramen and it's delicious every time.Definitely recommend it, especially since it's just steps away from Washington Square Park.“

“Awesome scallion pancakes, hot and sour soup, and chicken fried rice. We eat here as soon as we land from Saint Louis each time we visit NYC. Staff is extremely attentive and always on top of anything you need.“

“This is a lovely restaurant..we were the only ones dining there at 4pm on a Thursday, but my oh my were our dishes a gastronome's delight...the garlic chili noodles, mapo tofu, and dry pot beef were indescribably delicious. The young man who served us was also behind the register and he never returned to ask whether we needed anything...BUT he quickly came to our table when I got his attention. He graciously packed my leftovers for carryout after misunderstanding and placing more fire in the table top stove underneath my dry pot beef. I would definitely return to Baodega to try some other dishes!“

“The pork soup dumps was a SOLID NINE OUT OF TEN. Was not expecting to walk in here but they had a solid deal of $6.95 for the pork soup dumps specifically. You get 6 in one order. I know what you’re thinking, they look alittle sweaty but they’re good! Temp was perfect where it wasn’t burning your mouth. The skin of the dumpling was nice and thin. Soup was rich, can’t complain. Match this was a coke and it’s the perfect recipe. I got 2 orders. Only down side is that I wish they spaced them out alittle more. They got stuck together . Did loose like 3 dumps that fell apart. Just a rinky dinky place. Unsure if I’ll go back for anything more than the dumps but it was a vibe. They need to get new menus. I saw ALOT of orders fly out there. They must be doing something right“

“Perfectly done so delicious“

“A chill and restful oasis amidst a stressful, filthy, stinky and noisy Chinatown.

The food was fresh and tasty, the service inviting and comforting.

I visited with my 96 year old MIL in a wheelchair and everyone here was very accommodating and pleasant.
We'll be back.“

“Excellent service and delicious food. I had the vegi fried rice and Peppers with beef.“

“Great and delicious food. Fast and efficient service. One thing I noticed, is that the lady who greeted in the way have some preference. She didn't greet us out for some reason. It's not a big deal. But she did greeted to others with a big smile. Maybe I m seeing too.“
