Came for the soup dumplings, left with a happy stomach.Pictures don’t do the pork soup dumplings justice, you just gotta try them out for yourself. The skin was super thin and the filling was making it burst at the seams—best type of dumpling, imo.The mapo tofu and crispy noodles are fantastic, but it’s not something you’d spam your mom’s phone about.Wonderful food, awesome service. 9/10

The crab and pork soup dumplings had very delicate and thin skin but it held the hot soup inside perfectly, very well executed. The flavors were good and light. We also had the thinly sliced beef and beef stomach appetizer and it was also a very delicate taste. I'm definitely looking forward to going back for another meal! Prices are very decent, place is clean.

Stir fries had no wok hay and no visual appeal. The shredded beef with bamboo shoots was bland, shoots were very tough and fibery, and beef was in chunks in instead of shreds. The udon noodles completely broken. The soup dumplings, scallion pancake, sticky rice shumai and pan fried pork buns were ok.

EDIT March 13, 2022:We placed an order at 7:45 PM for pickup at 8:30PM. They weren't able to give me the order until 9:05PM. Don't think they started making the order until I walked into the restaurant.....Had a similar thing happen a few weeks ago, very frustrating. Both times, it wasn't busy inside.For pickup orders -- I've walked in and the order isn't ready. No problem. Half hour goes by, I ask again and the order is sitting at the front getting cold. Happened 3-4 times now.Original review:Absolutely love this place! The food and quality is excellent, some of the best Chinese food I've ever had. Sesame chicken is crispy and without a ton of oil. The Shredded pork in garlic sauce is my favorite, very spicy and good ratio of pork to veggies.Their prices are higher than a standard Chinese restaurant but you really do get excellent quality and portions.

Absolutely the best Shanghai food in south Brooklyn. Been going here for two years now food consistency has not once changed ever. Soup dumplings are to die for. Food is super clean in terms of taste and prices are very reasonable. Always puts a huge smile on my face when I dine here.

Dine in and and take out good experiences. Amazing soup dumplings

Soup dumpling is good. Skin is very thin, have to pick them up very carefully otherwise it breaks easily.

Food was delicious, so much flavors ?. It was an amazing experience. Budget friendly ,staff friendly. Definitely recommend ?

Very good food they have. We ordered out, and I don't think it was wise. By the time we got home food got a little cold and dumplings were getting stuck to the bottom of the to-go dish. They would break when pulled up, releasing all the delicious juice because of that. Other than that food was awesome. Dumpling's dough was extremely thin and tender. Meat inside was tasty and juicy.

Juicy dumplings love it. Egg yolk shrimp tasty. My kids love the Scallion pancake.
