Great service! Although highly recommend to make reservations ahead due to limited seating. Walk-ins usually faced with long wait time. A very good option if you don't feel like making the trip to Queens or Manhattan for shanghainese food.

Ordered for pick up, went there with my daughter to pick up the food. It wasn’t ready so we waited inside because it was cold outside. The girl at the reception seemed arrogant and rude, seemed very unhappy that we were waiting inside. Lo Mei and other food that we ordered had barely any chicken in it, instead it had lots of onions and broccolis. Long story short our first and last experience ever!

The restaurant is located in the Bensonhurst section of Brooklyn. They prepare Chinese cuisine. I ordered the hot and sour soup which was not thick. The steamed crab and pork dumplings were too soft, watery and lacked much filling. The shanghai spring rolls were too oily. The chicken, shrimp and pork in lobster sauce with a choice of noodle lacked lobster sauce. The chicken and black bean sauce had little sauce. The tofu family style was bland. The food was expensive and lacked flavor.

A dumpling and noodle shop with some traditional Chinese dishes. Service was very good, prices good and food was average. We had some jellyfish, steamed baos, scallion pancakes( bit dry), fried rice, rice cake with vegetable, tofu. We had some sesame balls for dessert and ( tapioca and black glutinous rice free).

Went there for lunch based on the reviews. The food was overall below average and very plain. The chicken we had was rotten and looked like it`s been stored for over weeks, absolutely gross. Customer service was the worst part, they acted like food safety is no big deal at all and simply did not even care about customers` feedback. We've had below average food before occasionally, but rarely such horrible customer service that would just completely deny customer`s feedback. We advice to avoid this place for food safety concerns , not to mention the horrible customer service on top of that.

Love these pork soup dumplings and the fried rice! We also had the pork belly and my daughter ordered jellyfish! I’ve never tried that before but it was pretty tasty. Great service, great food, great ambiance.
Some of the best Chinese food available in Brooklyn. The soup dumplings are addictive. Everything I've ordered is made with care. Service is always pleasant and thoughtful. I come at least once a month with the family.
The food was perfect and the said that because we were short on cash they could make it smaller but it was still huge

DECEPTIVE & DISHONEST BUSINESS practice by LUI SHANGHAI (my experience)I included an honest review of my food order below. If you choose to order food at this restaurant then I hope you do not have the same experience.The food was poorly flavored.The Soup dumplings were overly sweet and lacked the flavors normally associated with quality Asian soup dumplings.I also ordered chicken and Broccoli and pork fried rice. Here was my experience:There was Certain low quality food preparation.The pork fried lacked visible culinary effort and was greasy. A quality cook would use high flame in the Wok (an obvious thing) to obtain a nice quick smoky char to the fried rice. This pork fried rice was undercooked and greasy.The chicken:They included a very small amount of finely chopped chicken meat with nearly half the portion being finely sliced chicken slimy SKIN. I was in disbelief and thought the sliced chicken skin was a random piece of fat, but I soon noticed a LARGE AMOUNT of uniformly sliced chicken skin added to the dish along with a small amount of actual chicken meat. This seemed to me as a deceptive choice made by the business to cut their costs.I would not recommend this business, and my phone experience with the business owner was negative, as she was terribly rude to me. I give this place a two thumbs down.
