I go here a lot. The food is consistently good and reasonably priced. I get the wonton soup and sweet and sour pork. This appears to be a family run business with dad acting as busy, but affable waiter and granny acting as cook and mom and kidshelping with the ever-present take-out orders. I prefer to eat in. There is nothing fancy about the decor, but I like thesimplicitude of it and the friendly service. View all feedback.
What User doesn't like about Shanghai Dumpling King:
We got 5 different types of dumplings and none of them were good. The soup dumplings had little or no soup and all the dumplings were really doughy and oily. They also just don't taste good. View all feedback.
Soup dumplings are delicious! Thought I'd splurge a little and order the fancy version with crabs roe but to my surprise the owner friendly reminded me that the CHEAPER regular version is more delicious, which I went with in the end. Never have I experienced a restaurant owner giving up making more money for the sake of customers' good, so 4 star on food plus 1 star sincerity for you :
One of my all time favorite restaurants!! Amazing dumplings and service for an incredible price! Don’t miss out and order 2 spicy chive and pork dumplings, Shanghai (soup) dumplings, string beans, and Shanghai style noodles!
We ate here on Friday, New Years Eve. Ever since Ton Kiang closed we have been searching for another place to eat Dim Sum/dumplings in the City. We saw this place on a list somewhere and decided to try it out. We ordered the spicy dumplings, spicy shrimp and chive dumplings, pea shoots in garlic sauce, chive pancake and pot stickers. We asked the nice waiter if we were missing anything good and he suggested the Shanghai dumplings and the steamed pork buns, which we added. Let me tell you, everything was AMAZING! The spicy dumplings came with different sauces, one with peanut and the other a thinner soy based sauce. Both were great, not super spicy but really good! The Shanghai dumplings were wonderful, savory and a little bit sweet. The potstickers and pork buns were really flavorful and good. The pea shoots were delicious. The chive pancake, while very good, was the weakest part of the meal (though was still devoured). Other than a light vinegar sauce that was brought out to the table nothing that wasn’t sauced in the kitchen came with any, which was sort of lacking. But since all of the food was delicious and cooked perfectly (not dry) I didn’t miss it in the moment. I’m already looking forward to going back!!!!
I am a vegetarian and i had the vegetrableDelight plus atring beans .. wow wow wow .. friendly non rushed service .. we will be backFood: 5/5
Such great food! The veggies are cooked to perfection. The sweet and sour pork is tender and moist inside and crunchy on the outside. We love the soup dumplings too.Food: 5/5
