What Yvonne S doesn't like about New Shanghai – Ashfield:
Overrated. Last order was 8:30pm. The best cruise is pan fried pork buns. Other food were soso, not as good as I thought(I’m Asian). Not worth for long queue. Staff were not friendly. Disappointed. View all feedback. What Vivien Pisano likes about New Shanghai – Ashfield:
I thought the restaurant would be very busy at around 12pm on a Saturday afternoon. However, surprising we got a table of six very quickly, the service was friendly and attentive. The menu had a variety of dishes. Larger portions than some restaurants I have been to. Excellent food Would highly recommend! View all feedback.
