Dishes were forgettable. The young male server didn’t mention until after we finished that they only take cash/Venmo/Zelle, and then he pushed hard for a tip. We still left 15% just to be polite, but he didn’t earn a penny of it. The whole thing felt shady. Definitely won’t be back.

The waitress’s attitude was awful — it felt like I owed her money or something. She looked down on me while taking my order. I asked for a serving of xiaolongbao, and she told me she’d give me one for free. What, do I look like I can’t afford it?

Soup dumplings and a myriad of chinese delicacies including soups, noodles, roasted meats. I had the complimentary soup dim sum after ordering chinese meatballs and shrimp in rice noodles. It was delicioulsy served steaming hot in Bamboo steam trays. Service was prompt, friendly, and accomodating. This cash only emporium is a must try if you puruse the samplings on 40th road in Flushing, China Town. Great eats, priced right!

Very decent food for outdoor dining in the midst of winter. There's positive pandemic pricing where u get a basket of 6 Shanghai soup dumplings gratis if u spend over $10
I went there again with my wife & a friend on 10/10/25. We had 1/2 of the Peking duck that came along with the 6 soup dumplings, gratis. We had this beef tripe dish, which I didn't lime too much. My friend order some savory soy soup. That was OK. The Shanghai chicken, which looks like Hainese chicken, doesn't taste as good as the latter. We also had shui Mai, which is not as tasty as some other dim sum places. For vegetables we had the pea sprouts. The best was the Peking duck & the soup dumplings. For some reason the shredded cucumber they serve for the Peking duck doesn't look too fresh. It was translucent as if it was kept in the freezer for quite some times.
Absolutely love this place. Shanghai You Garden might look like any ordinary Chinese restaurant from the outside, but it’s easily one of the most heartwarming dining experiences I’ve had in New York. The food quality is way above expectations, my scallion noodles even had shrimp the size of the ones you’d find back in Taiwan. I ordered just $12 worth of food (rice rolls and beef balls), and they surprised me with extra soup dumplings and sweet rice wine balls. In a city that can feel cold and rushed, this place served me genuine warmth and care. Truly a 5 star kind of comfort that makes you feel seen, full, and grateful.

A must-stop in Flushing. There's nothing like Shanghai You Garden duck 🦆 buns and soup 🥟 for breakfast for an authentic Chinese experience. There's something heartwarming and inspiring about walking into this huge restaurant early in the morning and seeing elderly Chinese couples sitting down and enjoying breakfast. You can grab their 2.75$ duck buns at the window takeout but I will offer you to step inside. They have a free set of dumplings 🥟 on each set you orders. We loved the duck 🦆 buns ( mine wasn’t the first time 😃🥰🤗) and the soup dumplings were delicious and so comforting. The staff is welcoming and friendly and the Tea they served as basic treat was good too. Don’t miss this place 😃😃

I flew in from Florida this morning just to eat here. Shanghai you Garden never disappoints and always delivers a great meal. From the dumplings to the duck and fried rice. It's all fantastic!

Arrived at the restaurant at 9:00 PM on a Saturday, both the Google page and sign outside the door said the restaurant would be closing at 10:00 PM. When we walked in we were seated by the host and given menus. After sitting down for a moment a man approached our table and told us the restaurant was closing at 9:30 because they needed to “clean” and that we should leave, don’t restaurants need to be cleaned EVERY night? If you want to close at 9:30 change the hours posted outside and on your website. I have eaten at this restaurant before but after my experience this time I won’t be returning.
