Shanghai Tea Garden - Perth

We had a great meal at Shanghai Tea Garden, I have always wanted to pay them a visit and it did not disappoint. There were 8 of us and we ordered a range of food. <br/ <br/ The stand out dish for us was the Special Lamb Ribs, Shanghai Dumplings the String Beans with minced pork and chilli. The Dumpling fillings were full of flavour especially the broth in it, it was so tasty that we all fight for the last piece. Lamb ribs receive a lot of rave reviews on our table, the meat was on point so were the spices they used. I have had a fair share of stir fry string beans with minced pork and chilli, their version here has a lot more depth of flavour. The eggplant minced pork clay pot was very popular on our table too. It was grandma first time having eggplant and she likes it. <br/ <br/ Average dish of the night was the pork belly in bamboo box, the sauce that the pork was coated in lacking some depth of flavour in compare to the rest of our dishes. <br/ <br/ We would definitely return to try some other dishes as we were eyeing off other people's food throughout the night.

This place is located in william st, Northbridge. The entrance gate is traditional gate. It brings us back to the old Shanghai. And inside has a nice decor too.<br/ Food- we had Shanghai dumpling- the dumplings ' skin were thick, but the flavour of the pork mince and cabbage were nice..when you bite it the juice still in there<br/ Szechuan 'dan-dan ' noodle dry..I love every bit in it..noodles were nice and chewy..love the combination sauce, cucumber and mince pork in it too.<br/ Fried pork chop noodle soup- noodle nice and chewy. The clear soup was a bit bland for me<br/ <br/

The Xin Jiang Spicy Chicken with Potato and Hand Made Noodles is a must try.  The other dishes are quite good too.  It was impressive to have a decent Hot and Sour Soup for once.  Prices are quite reasonable.  Would definitely go back.<br/ <br/ The only down side is that the owners, should install a light down the walk way to the toilet.  Can be quite hazardous especially at night.

Fast and friendly service, huge portion sizes, nice decor. BYO so bring a bottle. Two of us ordered 2 entrees, 1 main and steamed rice and we couldn't quite eat it all great value as you don't need to order 2 mains cos' the serving sizes are so good. They also have some share bowl things which we saw 6 people sharing.

Relaxed surrounding and delicious foods, and kindly chef as well. Lovely space sooooo much, I’ll be back regularly.
