Shanghai Bistro Lǐ Yī Jì Shēng Jiān Guǎn

I like the Shanghai pot fried dumplings! the teig is pretty good! the one-pot is also good!

I considered it the best Fried Pork Bun for about a year. However, my today's visit totally disappointed me and I wouldn't go back: the pork was not fresh! It had a taste with the smell that the meat was about to get bad. In addition, their packaging was plastic for carry out fried one had a small piece of aluminium foil that was too tiny to cover the bottom of the box! How much could that save them or cost them just to make the foil a bit bigger? The steamed ones were so so as well but at least the meat was not bad yet. However, 6 were juicy out of the 12 we bought. Thus, manage your expectations hahaha.

The buns were cold. They tried to give me someone else's pickup order from 1 hour ago. We know the buns are best when fresh out of the pan.

Highly recommend Sheng jian bao and steamed soup dumpling (xiaolongbao)! One of the best Sheng jian bao in bay area, very juicy and thin skin.

Very yummy popular Shanghai style noodles and dumplings. Still covid limited the service and makes it not as comfortable as a year ago but the food is good.
