"You can find good Chinese food all over Oakland. But if you want great, like 2014-2019 Golden State Warriors great, head to Shan Dong in Chinatown. The big draw at this institution is the thick, chewy hand-pulled noodles that are made fresh behind a glassed-in counter at the front of the restaurant. The best decision you can make is to order the saucy sesame paste noodles, and the Shan Dong dumplings with chicken and dry-braised green beans. Just prepare to wait outside in a line longer than the DMV." - lani conway, julia chen 1
"This popular spot serves wheat-heavy, northern Chinese-style dishes including hand-cut noodles and dumplings. Every crevice in the thick noodles soaks up gravy and sauce, while the dumpling skins provide a satisfying bounce with every bite. Order zha jiang mian (spicy meat sauce noodles) or the ma jiang mian (sesame paste noodles), and get a scallion pancake too to add some crispiness to the mix." - daphne wu
"Known for handmade noodles and house special pancakes." - Momo Chang
"Shan Dong is known for two things: dumplings and handmade noodles — in particular the “hot and spicy chow mein,” which you should definitely request with those thick, toothsome handmade noodles. The restaurant is open for takeout and delivery (via third-party app). It’s also selling frozen dumplings, $28 for a bag of 50." - Luke Tsai
"Probably the East Bay’s most long-established dumpling and house-made noodle spot, Shan Dong has a variety of frozen dumplings available for pickup — $28 for a bag of 50." - Luke Tsai
