Shanghai Dumpling Shop - Millbrae

This shop is sadly permanently closed since 5/30/24. It was my go to for delicious Shanghai dumplings (xiao long bao), potstickers, the freshest fried bread (you tiew), sweet soy milk, and ja jiang mein. So sad I didn't get to say goodbye and eat here one last time before they closed. Will always have such happy memories of coming here with family <3

It appears that this place is now closed. Not sure if they are going to reopen again. But their last day was 5/30/24.

I can’t really understand why other people are giving this place 4 stars or better? The food is totally unimpressive. The woman cleaning was wearing gloves to protect herself… I watched her clean a table, then come over and handle my dishes and food with the same dirty gloves. Yuck.

Shanghai Dumpling has great soup and pan fried dumplings! Best Shanghainese food in the area. They have a huge menu that caters to all the best Chinese food including dim sum on top of all their other food. Their lotus wrapped sticky rice is great considering its the only place that does night dim sum in the area. The workers are kind and quite easygoing. Vegetarian options: There is the option to eat rice with the non-meat dishes like spicy tofu or green beans but I wouldn’t say it’s vegetarian focused or a great vegetarian experience

Great soup dumplings with thin dough and tasty meat. Other dishes are mediocre.
