Shine

Have been here several times for the Shanghai menu but honestly might not be coming back in a while. The food is rather authentic and so it really helps to come here when I miss my hometown flavors terribly. The menu carries lots of traditional and “real” dishes which is what we love and crave for. However, lately the quality has been inconsistent. The fish 熏鱼 and the pork 红烧肉 are both soft and tender one day, but hard and over-cooked the next. Soups can be super bland one day and way too salty on another. We have tried to put in notes when ordering (e.g,. Less spicy/salty) but felt that they were never honored. Overall, it feels a bit “try your luck” each time. The other thing is that sometimes when you order ahead the person who answers the Wechat messages can be a bit rude… finally, it can get a bit pricy if ordering seafood (crabs especially) and from the Shanghai menu only. We’ve been here 5+ times and it’s always been ~$200 or more for 4 people. In short, I truly have mixed feelings for this place and wish that the quality can be more consistent. If that can be achieved we’d be more than happy to make this place the go-to for every occasion.

Wow! We almost didn't choose this spot. The food was fantastic and they had so many options that sounded very tasty. And on top of that the service was the total package. They were all very friendly and courteous. They have such a nice feel and ambiance. We felt very comfortable and will definitely be back.

The place is very relax and the atmosphere is delicate.The service is wonderful very polite and respectful. the price is regular is not expensive. The food is good for me, I ate the same food in other country and this restaurant it’s not bad. But I recommend for me try the fried rice all the combination is excellent, and 1 plate for two is good because is too much for one person before may you try appetizer.
