Got to be the best Chinese I've ever had freshly cooked food, clean restaurant great friendly service, wish I'd tried it ages ago will differently be going regularly. Ordered 18 dumpling, won ton, sweet and sour pork for two people and took takeaways couldn't eat anymore for $64 great value.
Food is consistently good ! My go to family gatherings for a dinner. The lemon chicken, eggplant and duck are my favorite dishes. Music can sometimes be loud on a quiet day. They don’t give bowls, only plates so you have to ask for it.
Food was great, good value for money. We loved the beef brisket soup. Hubby and I went there to celebrate our anniversary and we enjoyed every bit of it. The staff was friendly, accommodated for my allergies. The place could use some soft music to match the aesthetic, either than that all was lovely.
My wife and two of my daughters and I had lunch here. It is a lovely restaurant, nice, friendly staff and the food is of a high quality, extremely well presented, and delicious. Wife + Daughters loved the place and declared it a new favourite. I also enjoyed the food as well but not as immensely as they. The reason is because while the food is very high quality and delicious, I personally found it a little (just a tiny bit) watered down to cater for western tastes. I am not saying it is not authentic, just not quite as layered in its flavouring as you find in some other Chinese restaurants. If you look at the photos you will see that the food is high quality, but you can also probably also tell it is lightly flavoured. The only chilli sauce offered is a sweet chilli sauce that looks just like what you get from a bottle at home. I asked for some chilli oil and got some, but it was fairly bland. Edit: I have since done my research on Shanghai style cooking which apparently has an emphasis on sweetness, lightness, and freshness. So my comments on 'watered down' may be awry, it may simply be that I prefer a more robust regional style of Chinese cooking and this restaurant is offering a genuinely Shanghai style. This style may be influenced by the 100+ years Shanghai was a western entrepot to China.
An excellent chinese restaurant in Hamilton. We took the Pejing Duck and it was excellent. They serve good quantities, you won't be hungry when you'll leave. For 2 ppl, I'd recommend to take 1/2 beijing duck and something else with it, juste to enjoy different courses :) we took the dumplings and they were also really good. Price is more than correct imi
I thoroughly enjoyed the dining experience at Shanghai couple days ago. The decor is nice - tidy and clean. Staff were really polite and helpful. We ordered a couple of small dishes and two main dishes. The roasted duck was juicy and tasty. The vermicelli wongbak in crushed garlic paste was also tasty but slightly salty for us. It would go well with rice. The steamed blue cod was perfect. I am looking forward to try some other dishes next time.
Had dinner there last week. Great environment and friendly service, will be back again.
