Fiery Shanghai - Pleasanton

Good food. for covid. service is great! xialong bao were delicious.

Authentic Shanghai region eat with thoughts prepared, light touch high quality ingredients. without being Shanghai-sweet, the dishes reminded those we had in high-end restaurants from all over the ocean. seafood were fresh, bark meat was tender, fruity were both. fried entrees came crispy, suppe in several layers of taste, xiao lung bao satisfying. exclamation for garnel with walnuts, in which the (smoking) garnels were delivered, not overwhelmed with mayo (as many others:) very difficult to do exactly with such large pieces garnel. the (d smoked fish was also a standout to be meaty tender as some shanghai restaurants manage. all classic Shanghai dishes were made with competency and a retaining flair.

Very good food. service, and ambiance overall. Good COVID safety precautions with well-spaced out tables and some outdoor dining. The Shanghai dumplings and dumplings in chili oil were huge and delicious. The noodle dishes were plentiful with fresh perfectly cooked noodles. Perfect place to stop after outlet shopping or fruit picking in Brentwood. Will definitely return to try more dishes.

Not the best chinese food and dimsum we’ve had. The hot and sour soup was good, the combination fried rice was ok. The dumplings in chili oil, shu mai and beef with scallions was a disappointment. The shu mai was all rice and hardly any meat you can see the pictures), the beef with scallions was a tasteless version of mongolian beef, and the dumplings in chili oil has a sweet taste and no flavor also. This restaurant is serving Shanghai style chinese food. I did not know the different styles of chinese cooking but when I asked, the lady server said that Shanghai style are more on the sweet side than other chinese food. I guess you live and learn. $72 down the drain.

First ever Chinese food has low sodium. Definitely coming back again.
