Shanghai Chinese Restaurant 富仔記

For the quality and quantity it’s over price the chicken was raw i asked them to cook it again they came back like didn’t touch, the other plate we didn’t even touched it the pork pieces was raw also and slimy

My family and I have been coming here for 10+ years and every time it’s an amazing experience, exceptional service, beautiful place very welcoming, and even with the area around changing throughout time due to new places; this place will always feel special to me.

You have to try their salt and pepper short rib if you eat at this Cantonese hidden gem! All the others are great too.

I ordered through Uber Eats and the food was horrible. The Butter Nan was not fresh, my jaw still hurts from chewing it, looks like it was made yesterday. The Goat Massala was 80% sauce and bones and just literally 2 pieces of meat, horrible, and to top it off, i don't like spicy and i said i wanted mild and it was really hot. Don't go to this place

Good old fashion Chinese food. Very friendly team at this restaurant. The waitress works there part-time, was very hospital, and provided a list of recommended restaurants in Bellaire Blvd. We brought back leftovers and were very good the next day. We thought about going back. However, we wanted to try as many restaurants as we can during our visit. There were a lot of take out during Christmas Eve, though they were one of a few restaurants opened in Diho Square, east of Ranchester Drive.

This place is family style, so each dish ordered is shared with the table. The servers are all super friendly and helpful! They gave us dish recommendations and filled our waters and cleared plates regularly too. Food was delicious!

Very delicious. Very good service. Very good atmosphere. I've been coming to this restaurant for 20+ plus years. I know it has changed hands several times and menu has changed but it is very good food. Large portions. Staff always helps out and comfortable atmosphere will keep us coming back for more🇺🇸🦀🍚🥡🍤🍜❤️

Been years since my last visit, food was good, way better than the past few times I went! The wait is about 30 mins, but we knew gonna be a bit of wait because there was a big table and 3 small tables ahead of us.

Delicious and no nonsense service. Family friendly establishment. Chef Special Tofu - light crunch on the outside and fluffy pillows of tofu on the inside, a must order item. Sautéed Egg Plant - they did not have a beef ribs for the eggplant and beef rib clay pot so we pivoted to sautéed Egg Plant. The eggplant was tender and the flavor was so good. Baby Bok Choy and Chicken - Bok choy had good texture and the chicken was tender and moist... Good Dish Salt toasted Spare Ribs - I know it has salt in the name but it was a little too salty.

Had to dock it one star because we returned and it just wasn't the same. Ordered the peking style ribs again and it was pretty bad. Could tell it had been fried and refried because the outside was not crisp. It was just tough and the meat was overcooked. Tried the house special tofu too - it wasn't bad but not the best tofu I've had, so can only give it a 3.5/5. This time, the water spinach was also not great. It was mostly the thick stems with no leaves. Very disappointed by the lack of consistency - wish it was as good as the first time. Not sure I'll be back since I don't want to gamble when I'm craving good food.

Ordered 140.00 dollars worth of food. We ordered salt and pepper spare ribs, ong choy with garlic, beef cubes mushrooms/asparagus, and green onion steam chicken. Spare ribs was full of fat and bone! No meat! Ong choy was undercooked and felt like I was eating rubber! Beef cubes portion was a sham. I almost thought my uber driver ate my food! Good thing I came to ready these reviews. Def small portions more like robbery. And the steam chicken no flavor. I grew up coming to this place and I would have to agree not like it used to be. You guys need to do better.

Friendly staff, but portion sizes were too small! Okay food, but lots of hit and misses so just try the soup and some signature dishes you might recognize. Unlike the name, this is owned by a Cantonese-speaking family and most dishes were Hong Kong- and Guangzhou-style. The most authentic Hong Kong-style dish we tried was definitely the eggplant with chicken--had it in Hong Kong and we definitely taste the similarities here! Fried rice and seafood rice porridge were both a bit too oily for our taste... Fried calamari was tough and tasteless. Soup was great but mediocre. Walnut shrimp was also very good but again, portion size was too small for a family of four to have more than two each. Pork ribs advertised on the sign at the entrance were mediocre as well. Beef slices in a sweet & sour sauce marinade was, again, too oily as well. Over a table of food filled with nine dishes (including the fried rice, soup, and porridge), the only dish that made the a-little-less-than-$200 price worth it was the eggplant.

Adding this to my pocket list of Chinatown restaurants. The English name of this restaurant is super misleading because you think it's Shanghainese food but it's actually Cantonese. This review is based on my takeout order. The salted pork spare ribs were definitely a standout dish. My husband said we should've ordered 2 of them lol. Even after the 30 min drive back they were still crispy, tender and juicy. The black bean rice noodle had good wok hei and wasn't overly salty. It was spicier than I expected since they added chili peppers and jalapeños but I enjoyed it. The Cantonese style sweet and sour chicken was good but nothing stood out compared to other restaurants serving the dish. The last thing we ordered was the beef pot, which came a lot more saucy than I expected, but the beef taste was still very strong, and they gave good portions of meat. Overall enjoyed all the dishes a lot as the taste of this place kinda straddles between the homemade and restaurant tasting line. Dishes aren't overly salted or enhanced with MSG which I appreciate. They also have a lunch special that seems to include weekends so will have to come back to try that.

The food is cooked per order and its tastes wonderful. Definitely will try the short rib casserole and walnut shrimp on my next visit. If you come during the week it's very quiet and relaxing.

Love the food & services here. The basic typical stir fried beef with flat noodles here is delicious. (够锅氣 = Have the wok heat flavor) staff server Thuy is excellent in recommending great dishes. She is friendly & courteous. Will return next time when we are in Houston area again.

Best fried spare ribs in the city! Great veggies and excellent walnut shrimp. The hot and sour soup is also really great, different than anywhere else I've had. Awesome food, casual atmosphere, great service!

Used to love coming here. It was my go to for take out but the quality has been so inconsistent lately. Sometimes it's good but other times it's so bland. I always get the salt toasted tofu but the last time I got it they must've went really light with the salt. If it weren't for the peppers it would've tasted like nothing. The only thing that's consistent is the Mongolian beef. It's always good but they give you so little beef now. Idk I like this place but it's such a letdown whenever the food comes out so plain. Especially compared to how it used to be. No idea what happened

The food never disappoints me every time I come here. Even if they don't have it available they will still try to come up with a solution. Service- always good and personable Ambiance-I like the traditional feel of it.

This place is always fantastic. I have never been disappointed with anything I have ever ordered here. I don't care where you live in Houston you need to get over here as it's not going to blow you away with how pretty it is inside it is definitely not an instagrammable place but that shouldn't be why you were going out testing food in houston. You need to visit Shanghai and get yourself some great food ASAP

This use to be one of my favorite Cantonese restaurants. Recently the quality has really declined. They use frozen peas and carrots in their soups which gives it that freezer smell. The salt and pepper ribs are dry and don't have much meat. Service is pretty slow but it isn't anything out of the ordinary.

This Shanghai Restaurant 富仔記 has served me some great meals. That's why I have an upgraded opinion with this updated review. I came here one night looking for some home style dinner. It was cold winter in the middle of the week. I didn't know the closing time but I saw a couple still eating there. I ordered pepper ribs and a bowl of rice. I didn't think of anything but realized the employees are eating... Appeared to be eating dinner as end of their shift. Oh shoot I said. One employee came to me and said, "no hurry. You can stay until you're finished." Wow. So nice. Yeah. I hate to be rushed. It was actually my first-time dining in. I loved the decorations and those home feeling. No wonder it's been featured by Chow Down in Chinatown group many times. For the same reason I recommended my neighbor brought her family to dine here tonight. Because they took good care of me that night.

Been going here ever since I was a child and it has never missed! Food is classic Cantonese and feels like home cooking, 10/10! Service is great every time, mainly because they know my family and I. Would definitely recommend for anyone looking for classic Cantonese food!

If you try anything, you need the general tso's chicken, sweet and sour pork, and the fried spare ribs. Hands down the best! Seated immediately and they were able to accommodate a large party. Service was fast and staff were friendly. They came around often to refill drinks. Everyone enjoyed their food. Great portion sizes and great prices. You can tell this place has regulars and fills up quickly.

No nonsense Chinese food that's been around for a couple of generations. They're known for their deep fried ribs and tofu dish. Give this local spot a try. They won't disappoint.

Extremely disappointing with the service. We've been here once and the staff was so sweet for our first time so we came again. The staff shared at that time how she had great memories eatingGeneral Tso there since she was little and now worked there, she made our day that time. We came again 5 ladies (including our mom because it's Mother's Day and one child 9 years old) .The restaurant opens at 12pm we got there 12:40 and it was busy due to Mother's Day or maybe just because it's a Sunday. We were behind a group of three elderly people and they went in easily being assisted by a young woman. You could say that it was because they are a smaller party it went smooth. When waiting to be attended we asked a man who looked at us (possibly the manager) but did not approach us to help if we could get a table for 6. We thought at most we'd be told to wait since it was busy. He just said no and pointed around to show the table of people (all who looked at us and we could only assume he meant it was busy) and said there was no space. I asked if there was a wait time as that's the most appropriate way to ask or be told when coming in to a restaurant. He just shooked his head and when we just stood there a bit taken a back, he then realized that was not what we asked and said an hour(we thought that's objectively an average wait time is normal) What was unprofessional was the fact that there was tables( maybe we thought they didn't have enough staff and that was the reasoning behind the odd behavior), they did not ask us to wait inside, and it felt as if we were ushered out as another employee was making there way towards our side to squeeze her way, so we just told our party to let's go outside and "wait". The shocking part was when this staff member turned off their OPEN sign. We definitely did not feel welcomed at that point. At no point were we disrespectful nor was there a language barrier/miscommunication issue. We saw more people enter and we noticed they did not come outside like we did. They probably weren't told they had no space. The light was turned back to reflect open like the picture below. More people went inside within the few minutes we had left outside. They must have thought we left but we only had moved to the side to gather our thoughts if to leave or wait the hour since there wasn't a list or place to put our phone numbers (which honestly not a problem; it's everything else that transpired that was weird). Was it prejudice? Were they just extremely busy and overworked? I want to think better of others but actions say otherwise. What it definitely was, was unprofessional and disappointing. Hope this please doesn't happen again.

A favorite place for us!! Ventured back since pandemic (been awhile) and found the same friendly faces and fantastic foods. Ms Queenie, not there today, once told us her food was Cantonese style. Her sister runs it now and she's an absolute joy and remembered us! Newly remodeled and fresh in red decor the place seems nicer new and fresh. Our dishes were absolutely fantastic. We were told no beer or wine license and no mention of BTOB. The entire Plaza has been remodeled and adds alot to be seen. Casual dining atmosphere and unrushed. Check for hours of operation. See ya there!

I've been dining here for almost 2 decades when their location was closer to Fiesta on Bellaire. I know the husband/wife owners as he is the chef while she manages the register. I remember seeing the chef on his wife beater shirt chatting with patrons while the wife never had a good attitude serving customers. There're a few other Cantonese restaurants throughout the years and I haven't been back since 2018 until yesterday. We were deciding where to have lunch and my husband pointed at Shanghai restaurant thinking they serve xialongbao. Well, their restaurant's name is mis-leading as it's a Cantonese restaurant and almost everyone speaks Cantonese. It has been a long time and I thought why not? The place was completely empty for a Sunday's lunch around 12:30 pm. The server greeted us with paper menus and seated us afterwards. I wasn't sure if they are still owned by the same couple but turned out yes! I saw their now adult son sitting in the back. We got a couple of rice plates: beef with bitter melon and fish filets with veggies. I also ordered their poached chicken (1/2 chicken) served cold and dip with ginger scallion sauce. Both rice plates tasted good; lots of rice but small portion in terms of proteins/veggies. The chicken dish was average but the ginger sauce helped. I love this and always get more in the past. I have never been charged extra for the sauce. Naturally, I asked for more. I was surprsied to see $1 for the ginger sauce. While I don't mind paying for it but think the waitress should inform us first. In addition, if the chicken has more flavors, we probably don't need so much sauce to eat with. Maybe we'll be back in a few years...

I couldn't resist trying the salt-toasted spare ribs, and they were absolutely fantastic! A definite must-try when you visit. The staff is incredibly friendly, providing top-notch service, and the food arrived surprisingly fast. Highly recommended!

Family-owned and time-tested, this authentic Chinese restaurant has been around for a reason. While grocery shopping at Welcome Food Center, I suddenly craved Chinese food and decided to try this unassuming spot. Though it may not have the glitz and glamour of newer, fancier places, the restaurant is clean and surprisingly busy, with about ten sizable tables occupied. I ordered a dish to go, and the service was exceptional. Despite not dining in, the front desk staff were friendly and informed me there might be a slight delay due to being short-staffed in the kitchen. I appreciated the heads-up and found it completely understandable. When I returned, the staff continued to impress with their attentiveness--they asked if I wanted water while I waited and kept me updated on the progress of my order. This is the kind of service that makes supporting local businesses worthwhile. The food was excellent, and I'm looking forward to trying their salted toasted pork ribs and other dishes. Highly recommended for both great food and hospitable staff!

If you're craving authentic Cantonese food. This place offers the best ones. I've been coming here since I moved to Houston but with the influx of new restaurants I haven't been here for a long time. Plus they opened at 12 noon while others opened at 11. I happen to be in the vicinity so I decided to dine here. What I noticed is it's almost empty unlike before but the food is still good. I surely will comeback soon. Lets support good food Let's support this restaurant

The salted ribs are AMAZING!! Definitely one of the best in the city. The basil clams were spectacular as well.

Taste :4.1/5 Environment: 3.8/5 Service/: 4.4/5 Aged family owned Cantonese style place . The environment is a bit old but the waitress are friendly to mitigate the atmosphere. It's the place suits for 3-4 ppl above in order to share plates Recommend fried pork 炸排骨&魚香茄子

Thanks dad. Never would have ever known this spot existed if not for my dad. It's in the Welcome shopping plaza. The place is close to his doctor's office and he noticed that they advertised congee. My dad loves congee (rice porridge). So we deviated from his usual spot to try this place. We went during off peak hours so it was empty. We were seated quickly and then left to our for a bit. It looks to be family owned based on the banter between the people. The only thing that was uncomfortable was a man walked in who clearly worked there and started to admonish the older lady that was working in the back area. My dad was very upset by this and didn't like the manner in which he spoke to her. We ordered the plain congee, yes plain. And the beef with vegetable chow fun (w/gravy) and a side of white rice. My dad enjoyed the congee esp since they didn't add any extra seasoning to it. Some places add seasoning to the plain congee and he doesn't like that bc sometimes it makes it salty. This was perfect and the waitress made sure it was extra hot (tempature not spice) as my dad requested. The chow fun was delicious. Just wish there was more noodles. It was very moist and flavorful. Overall it was a nice experience. There is a broad and diverse menu and I would love to go back and try more yumminess.

Fat noodles w beef and no gravy is absolutely delicious!!! I can't remember the proper name but it is very delicious

If you want authentic Chinese food, this is the place to go. They're family owned, from the chefs to the servers. Really hard to pinpoint down to what is good but just about everything you order is good and very flavorful. It's all family style, so the more people the more dishes you can try.

Claim to fame. This is actually where the song "Walk Like A Shanghaineseman" was written. You know, the 80s hit for the "Shangles." True story. What is - as of now - unconfirmed, is that cops have temporarily relocated from Shipley Donuts to Shanghai because of the deliciousness of the Beef with Mushroom dish. What to order: Beef w/Mushroom What not to order: Me around Came here to play word games (Shangman), and chill with some friends (were were just Shanging out). Thought it was an airplane shangar or a Star Wars-themed place (named after Shang Solo), but it was neither. The beef with mushroom was the real star of this restaurant. It was absolutely delicious from the first bite until the last. And a nice happy portion too. I'll definitely order it again next time I go back. The wings were a little dry, but very tasty. I would re-order them as well. They're one of the most popular dishes on the menu, but the beef was the clear winner. The tofu was not wet enough and not flavourful or spicy enough although the texture was really nice. It was a three or four. If I'd only ordered the tofu, there's no way I'd have given this place 5 stars. Overall the restaurant is a five-star Place, but some of the food was somewhat disappointing. The prices and service are pretty good and it would definitely come back here again for the two aforementioned dishes and other new stuff as well. One of many great authentic Chinese restaurants in the Chinatown area of Houston.

Ordered to go during the covid lock down. We ordered the black pepper chicken with mushroom and asparagus, snow pea leaves, toasted ribs, salt pepper squid and house tofu. I was told over the phone that the house tofu takes a while so it would be at least 20 minutes. I arrived after 20 minutes and my order still wasn't ready. It was pretty disorganized because after waiting for about 10 minutes at the restaurant they told me they didn't make my house tofu dish and that if I still wanted it I would have to wait another 20 minutes for it...Not sure how they messed that up unless they gave my order away to someone else. I did not end up getting to try the tofu dish but everything else tasted really good.

A good place for a sit down Chinese family dinner. The dishes are aplenty and range from soups to casseroles, claypot rice to seafood (whole fish, fish filet, shrimp, and more), Chinese vegetables to fried noodles and rice. Service is mostly efficient but needs prompting at times. The servings are also on the smaller side compared to other competitor restaurants. Everyone raves about the ribs and I agree that they are awesome, as the family usually orders two instead of one plate. The special "pei pa" deep fried tofu is also an honorable mention. I am usually a huge fan of honey walnut shrimp (super small portion for price and not enough dressing) but this wouldn't be the place to get it unless this will be the last meal you'll ever have.

I'm so glad to be back in the amazing city of Houston. Something I love about my city is how diverse it is and the different places you can discover new food at. My little bro and I checked out @shanghai_restaurant_htx in Bellaire and holy sh*t it's delicious. We had fried egg-rolls for appetizer but they were so good that I wasn't able to take a pic. I also had fried beef w/ flat noodles which was amazing but the star of the meal had to have been the fried salted toasted spareribs. They needed no sauce and they were hot, crunchy, and full of flavor. Unfortunately due to the coronavirus pandemic, many local Asian restaurants are losing sales so make sure you support local Asian restaurants and discover new food while doing so. Thank you @shun.htx for recommending this place!

Best Wonton Soup. Excellent service! Very quiet in Chinatown near huge grocery. Excellent

Before I mouth off this review, please be aware that this restaurant does not serve Shanghainese, the word Shanghai in the name is just a name not indicative of cuisine. I came here instead of a grand steakhouse because of the reviews of the tofu and the salt n peppa spare ribs. I was all, "a Texas steak sounds amazing, but the tofu and spare ribs just had that edge I was looking for" And that they were... The tofu was nicely unique, had the texture of soft omelet cakes on the inside, light, crunchy and delicious on the outside. Never had this kind but was worth the visit. The spare ribs were ooooh so delish, yes, never had this either: loved the kick the pepper imparted and the nice sodium edge to this yet another crispy dish. I love texture, ha ha!. The noodles were also very good, strikingly Cantonese, not Shanghainese noodles. So, the service was so awesome, my waitperson kept coming back checking for oolong tea and water refills, and asked if I liked the food. Maybe she knew I was gonna Yelp the resto, 'cause I was taking pics, LOL She packed up my leftovers she said, I "shouldn't be wasting food" I responded, "I would love to take them home, I'm staying at a hotel". She said, "Ill be right back" and carted off the food. She comes back with them packed ready for the microwave and gave me some chopsticks. Nice, happy to be cared for by my Chinese mama. Glad I had Chinese. Visits: 1 Tip: Get the dishes Yelpers rave about. You'll totally enjoy it here.

This is our first visit here. Very friendly staff. The food was really good. We ordered off the lunch menu that they have 7 days/week. This was my first time trying this dish, Shrimp with Peas & Egg Sauce. I was surprised how tasty it was. So much so, I finished it all. My husband enjoyed his Kung Bo Chicken. It was spicy enough for him. My son enjoyed the Pork Spare Ribs with Choy Sum. We enjoyed our lunch here today.

Their ginger sprout chicken is a classic from HK that I missed . Fried pork intestines with sweet dip sauce, clams with black beans is amazing. Lobster with ginger and onion sprouts is just the right thing in a chinese restaurant. Duck tongue with pepper salt flavor is one of my friends favourite too. Sweet & sour chicken is my favourite lunch item .

It's good to go into random Chinese restaurants and support Chinatown during these difficult times. I had the beef cubes and it was tender steak. it was fine.

I came here for a birthday dinner on a weekend night. Service is really mediocre at this restaurant. One of the waitresses rolled her eyes and scoffed at my friend when he asked a simple question about the menu. The staff was just plain rude to my table throughout the dinner. I really hope they improve their customer service in the future.

I love both Americanized Chinese food and traditional Chinese food and this definitely falls into the later category. I've been here twice in very different situation and both times been pleased but not blown away. We had a large group in one of the rooms off to the left one busy Saturday night. About 15 of us squeezed in around one of the circular tables. The staff was nice and accommodating and efficient. We've also been here midweek for dinner and the place was dead. Favorites foods: egg rolls, sweet and sour pork (delicious!), and the shrimp with walnuts (the mayo on them isn't for everyone but I loved it!) Least favorite: roasted duck (when a table of 15 leaves this uneaten, you know it isn't very good). The price is right at under $10 per person. There is plentiful parking in the huge lot, and if they are too busy, you can always walk to one of the other restaurants in the same strip mall. Notable: It's BYOB and a lot of people walk down to the store and get six packs of beer to share at a table (didn't see any wine, it's a beer kind of place).

What in the hell is this? Don't know why this place charge u an arm and a leg for a little food. And tastes shitty! The hell?!

Not impressed. My friend and I, on our food trip through Houston, decided to eat here because it was already 9 pm and they close at 11 pm. The decor and tables are pretty standard for Chinese restaurants -- a bit sticky and you don't know when it was last cleaned. That aside, the menu is huge and there is something for everybody. They have party rooms, which were full when we got there but the overall restaurant was pretty empty. We ordered clay pot dishes because we didn't want something basic. For ~$15 each, it is a substantial amount of food. I got the beef short ribs with eggplant, and it was just too fatty for me. My friend got the tofu claypot and it came with mushrooms and was saltier than my dish. Also had a fishy taste but I think that was part of the dish? I'm still not sure. While the food, service, and ambiance is a solid 3.5 stars, the reason for my 2 stars is purely hygienic. I was washing my hands (darn sticky tables) and noticed that there was someone else in one of the stalls. There are 2 stalls, and 1 bathroom sink so I tried to dry my hands quicker so the next person could wash their hands without waiting for me. I hear the flush, and I'm about to step aside for them to use the sink when I notice them walk past me and out the door. Yep. Flushed the toilet and walked right out the door. This wouldn't be such a huge issue if they weren't an employee who was stacking all the clean dishes in the back of the restaurant. With their bare hands. And served us our dishes. With their bare hands. Gah.

This was my first experience with real, authentic Shanghai cuisine. I was very impressed with everything we tried. My favorite was the pan fried noodles and a brisket stew dish!

Meh. The inside smelled like cigarettes and it just felt very dingy. We got a slew of dishes for 6 people and nothing truly stood out. They do not sell alcohol here but do allow BYOB if that's down your alley.

This place is okay, nothing special. We got the Singaporean noodle and the crispy pan fried pork noodle. Looking back at some of the reviews, maybe we should have ordered what people recommended like the Chef's tofu. Oh well. The atmosphere is dirty and the service is mediocre at best. I also hate the parking lot here.

1. Service - I've been here a gazillion times, and the service has never changed once. They're always friendly and nice. There's a waitress that doesn't speak very good English, but ask for Queenie as she can translate. This is one of the rare restaurants in Chinatown that accepts credit cards! 2. Price - Very reasonable, they have lunch specials in the back part of the menu. Average price for lunch specials are $5 a plate. If you order off the regular menu, portions are bigger and you can pay $8-15 a plate depending on what you order. 3. Ambiance - The venue is a bit 90s looking, but don't let that turn you away. Try the food first. 4. Food - The Chef brought his style of cooking from Hong Kong to the West and he tames his fire like no other. He puts just the right amount of wok flavor to the food, that it makes you crave for more! If you are a newby, try their beef chow fun, and their pork spare ribs. 5. Cleanliness - No complaints.

This place is solid and authentic Chinese food, been coming here since I was a young one well- ever since they had a smaller location called Marco Polo of which they then moved their location now Crispy noodles with beef and gailan Clams with black bean sauce Fried stuffed tofu Lobster ginger and scallion Steamed fish Fried pork ribs Squid scallops and shrimp Ong choy Just to name a few dishes I ate growing up in houston on special occasions. They also have special rooms where you can reserve for big parties but a minimum charge of 250. The service is typically china town service but it's family owned by hard working people.this is not a sugar coated place with bad taste, this is straight forward ordering with straight forward ppl that have been doing this for years. This place brings almost all Chinese clients, it's authentic, and I haven't had an issue with any cleanliness, all those speak loudly, all their dishes I have listed above are very tasty The taste is Chinese, the clients are Chinese, the staff is Chinese, the food is chines- what more can you ask for

This restaurant is one of the older ones in the area but food is great. We ordered the salt and pepper lobster, chinese broccoli which were both great and house special noodles which was a little bit on the salty side. Overall, we had a very nice lunch

Beat Chinese food in the county. Chrisp, fresh vegetables, prepare with thought and caring. Loved the perfectly cooked seafood, as well as the spice and flavors prepared to order. Excellent service and cozy inviting atmosphere without being pretentious.

This is our family favorite and go to dinner place in Chinatown. We run into church friends, family, and family friends wherever we're here. They do normal seating and have party rooms for reservations. We usually come once a month for dinner and know the owner and waitresses pretty well. They know us well enough to know what we eat and drink. Today my family ordered the flat noodles, Gai Lan and beef, Ma Po tofu, and clay pot chicken. It comes with unlimited pots of rice and a pork/pork bone soup for appetizer. The service is always great and I've never eaten anything bad here. My brother and I both had our high school graduation dinners here and had all three party rooms reserved for the multiple course meals. They people here speak both Cantonese and mandarin.

The other day I was having a conversation with my gf about chinese style ribs. And she was like OoO you gotta try shanghai it's her favorite. So I came in here with high hopes. I think if it wasn't hyped up I would have enjoyed it more. The first couple of salted pork ribs were meh at best. However, the last couple were better as it was more covered in the garlic and special salt. They are bigger in size than the ones I enjoyed too. I like the smaller spare ribs. We also ordered the snow pea leaves. My favorite place used to be Chinese Cafe for this dish, but they are now closed down. It was good, but overall, if you offer this dish, I have not seen a place mess it up. Finally, we had the ginger lobsters. It was pretty lackluster in flavor. I usually LOVE chinese style lobster. Overall, the food was just OK. The service here is good, but the kitchen can be really slow. Also, it's actually to have a big group seated than smaller groups since they only have a limited number of 2 and 4 tops but they have 6 or so bigger tops that they reserve ONLY for big groups.
