Soup dumplings, huge menu, large outdoor dining setup

"On a Chinatown corner this Shanghai-specialty restaurant serves braised pork shoulder, Chrysanthemum fish, and West Lake beef soup, and it’s also a strong weekend dim-sum spot with sturdier-than-Cantonese dumplings, cold-buffet dishes like mock duck and raw crab with soy, aromatic beef, and the expected Shanghai soup dumplings (with or without crab)." - Eater Staff
