This place doesn’t miss. Food is incredible.
I had:
- ‘Exclusive Chinese Chili Chicken Noodles’
-‘Thinly sliced Pork Belly with Horn Pepper Slices’
Just had shanghai fresh for the first time and it is excellent. I was not feeling adventurous, so I got my guilty pleasure Americanized Chinese food - sesame chicken. I thought all sesame chicken was the same, but this is outstanding. The sauce is complex and full of flavors, and the chicken is cut into perfectly sized chunks, and fried to a nice crisp. I'll definitely be ordering again, and trying something more "authentic".
I did try this place. This is my second time to eat here. The food is so good. The taste is really Shanghai flavor. It will be my favorite restaurant.
Tried 2 times after pandemic, sad to say the chef must be changed.
*The black pepper beef chunks taste so different from before. Not juicy not chewy and no sauce at all.
*The sweet n sour ribs taste nothing but hard to chew, the flavor remains outside and not strong enough.
*The Chestnut Chicken stew - the chestnut itself has chemical taste and the chicken, not marinated enough so it tastes nothing either. They need to add more soy sauce and sugar to make the flavor stronger.
I really Hope they can change the chef back, cuz this is really not an authentic Shanghai Food for me anymore. Will come back if they change the chef, otherwise, not an any chance.
With the opening of Shanghai Fresh, I finally had to eat my words on the lack of authentic Asian food near Central. I am picky about Chinese food and in that domain, this is unquestionably the best on offer on this side of the river!
