Shanghai Eats

By far the best pan-fried dumplings in NYC. The bottom is fried to a perfect crisp, and each bun contains a full spoon of soup. The taste is authentically Shanghainese: slightly sweet, light, and not overbearing filling. Also got their drunken chicken which was also quite nice. Strongly recommended, even though the buns cost more than $2 a piece.

The food is pretty good, highly recommended their pan fried soup dumplings. The bao crust is crispy but is filled with delicious soup stock and meat.

Food was ok, nothing to rave over about. The food was a bit under season for my taste. The scallions noodles only had a taste of soy sauce. The fried rice was lacking, had to add hot oil. The XLB was good and thin skin but a bit on the pricey side. The panfried soup dumplings were different and good. Service was very tentative and constantly refilling our tea and water.

Very tasty and fresh food. Especially the soup dumplings that have a thin but strong skin with well seasoned soup. Today was their first day. Will definitely bed back
