    Winter B.

    Solid asian restaurant in Eugene. I really liked the mushroom chicken fried rice. I liked that it had broccoli and veggies in it. Very flavorful. Large portions here. Nice menu with dumpling, noodle, soup, and rice options. Good for sharing. Servers are extremely friendly and prices are not bad. Small inside but cozy and good vibes.

    Shang Hai Steamed Fried Bao Zi(6)-(6)
    Loc N.

    Well-done pan fried dumplings with affordable prices. The location is near a park, which could get really crowded during the weekends, otherwise parking should be relatively easy to find. The servers are attentive and decent with their service. The space inside is pretty comfortable and has a very large table for a big group, we walked in as a big group of 8 people and were sat instantly. The foods are authetic but the menu are quite large, so take your time to look at the menu before you go if you want to speed up the process. I highly recommend any pan fried dumplings, especially their Shanghai dumplings and shrimp pan fried. They were crunchy and tender at the same time.

    Service was quick. Ordered a bottle of sake (they do have wine and beer though) and steamed pork buns, as well as panfried pork dumplings, and spicy wontons. The panfried dumplings were juicy inside and seasoned well. The soy sauce and vinegar are provided at the table so we can mix our own dipping sauce (though they didn't give us separate small bowls to create the dipping sauce). The steam buns were also made well and tasty to eat. The flavoring on the spicy wonton was perfect. This dish can look spicy to the uninitiated, but it isn't really -- and my guest who was worried about how spicy the wonton sauce appeared ate half the dish without having her delicate palate troubled. I'd return again for the quick service and solid dumplings. My only disappointment was that they didn't have the shao long bao (juicy dumplings). Maybe next time. Parking was available -- conveniently the main entrance is off a central parking area downtown.

    Best food I've had in Eugene!! The Bao buns were phenomenal and my soup was REALLY flavorful. Great portion sizes as well. Service wasn't great but not bad enough to not return.

    Beef curry bao
    Mel H.

    Great location and service. Food had a lot of flavor. I had the vegetable bao and was impressed with the flavor profile (it is sometimes hard for restaurants to pack flavor into a vegetarian option). The cucumber salad was excellent (a little spicy...but not too hot). I am currently meatless...but my daughter loved the beef curry bao and said we are definitely coming back!

    Spicy chicken noodles
    Carolyn T.

    So glad I checked Yelp reviews . Would never have found this place . Excellent food . Quick fresh service . Fully stuffed pork dumplings . Delicious beef noodles with lots of beef and vegetables. Spicy chicken noodles , hot n no soup.... Delicious . Wish I lived nearby as I wanna come back ! Very diverse menu .

    Veggie Fried Rice-秘制蔬菜酱炒饭 we are disgusted.

    my friend was eating there vegetable fried rice and found a literal claw in it. we were already eating it and then got so grossed out. manager was VERY apologetic and offered us a voucher but we will not be returning so a voucher doesn't do much. Other food was fine but not worth finding a claw in it. this was also our first time ever getting it and we will never get it again. A CLAW. SUCKS.

    Came here on Christmas evening and wow was this place busy! Recommend calling ahead or making a reservation. Ordered their curry beef bao, chicken cucumber salad, and shrimp noodle soup. The curry beef bao was the star of the show - super moist & flavorful meat stuffing. The prices were relatively reasonable and although the place was packed inside, the service was still good. Recommend this place for their curry beef bao!

    Jessica De Luna ..

    Definitely 100% recommend. I want to congratulate the establishment because I do believe it is harder to keep high standards when there is less competition in smaller towns. Coming from LA, this place is solid. Ambiance is great, service was very friendly, and the food WAS GOOD. The beef soup had a solid flavor with fresh ingredients, the spicy wontons were very very good, along with the steam dumplings.

    Pork dumplings in broth
    Bob S.

    Holy cow these were the best dumplings and Bao I've ever had. The pork dumplings in soup are absolutely amazing and I could live off of them alone! The fried dumplings were great and the BBQ pork Bao are out of this world. The curry beef Bao, cucumber salad and onion pancake are also super good.

    Had a road trip from LA to Seattle,I passed by this beautiful little town name Eugene today and…read moredecided to try this Chinese restaurant. It's a place that specializes in wheaten food and noodles. Looking at the menu, I noticed a wide variety of options with complex preparation methods. For example, the dough used for regular dumplings is completely different from the dough used for shrimp dumplings (har gow). Shrimp dumplings require wheat starch (cheng mian), which must be kneaded and shaped with water around 70°C (158°F) to form properly. The entire process is incredibly labor-intensive and truly tests the chef's skill level. Ambiance & Environment: You can tell this restaurant has been open for a long time, yet it remains very clean. There is a glass-enclosed prep area where you can watch the staff making the dough and noodles from scratch, which perfectly showcases their specialty. However, I was seated right next to the back door. Since customers have to use this door to access the restrooms, people were constantly walking in and out. The draft was quite strong, causing my food to cool down very quickly. I highly recommend installing a folding screen there. I also overheard other guests asking to switch seats for the same reason, so this is definitely an area management needs to work on. The Food: Since I was dining alone, I only ordered two dishes, but overall, the food deserved high praise: Griddle Cooked Beef (Gan Guo Beef): A classic Sichuan dish. The beef slices were large, the side ingredients were plentiful, and they definitely didn't skimp on the seasoning. It had a rich, robust aroma of spices that burst in your mouth. Delicious! Beef Dumplings: Easily the best dumplings I have ever had on the entire West Coast. The wrappers were thin, the filling was generous, and they were incredibly juicy--literally bursting with flavor with every bite. Highly recommended! Service: Absolutely non-existent! About five minutes after all my food arrived, while I was right in the middle of eating, a server just dropped the bill on my table. I was completely baffled. It wasn't until I pointed out that I still needed rice that they finally took the bill back. Once I finished my meal, I asked for the check. The server gave absolutely no response. Seeing a long line of people waiting outside, I proactively asked a second time because I didn't want to hold up their business. To my surprise, the staff member snapped at me impatiently, saying, "I heard you, I have to go over there to get your bill." It was genuinely infuriating. Good foods. No services

I always find that Asian food hits the spot when I'm really hungry, so I looked online for a place that "the locals" rated highly and I came across "Jade Dumpling and Noodles" on Willamette. Let me just say that the fine people of Eugene didn't steer me wrong! My oldest son loves dumplings and I love noodles (really any type of Asian food), so this place was a gem! We ordered 3 different kinds of dumplings, shrimp, pork and a spicy pork and they were All Delicious! These "soup dumplings" were small and bite sized but were packed with huge savory flavors! They are made right there and are amazing! I myself had the mixed noodles. House made noodles with beef, chicken, shrimp and vegetables, stir fried in a delicious lite sauce, that enhanced the flavors of the dish, without overpowering it. You could taste all the ingredients and they were fresh and delicious! I cleaned the plate and now I can't wait to return to Jade Dumplings and Noodles again and try their other dishes, that I know will be tasty! The staff is very friendly, helpful and attentive. The restaurant is very clean and comfortable, all in all, a Great dining experience! Try them out and you'll be hooked on them, just like I am now!!!

We weren't really sure about this place at first because it was empty and the lady didn't really acknowledge us. Infact, she kinda disappeared somewhere for a while. We looked over the menu and was thinking about leaving when one by one, people were walking in either for take out or dine in. We decided to stay and give it a try. We gave her our order and within minutes, the items came out hot and smelling good. The hot and sour soup. mapo tofu, dan dan noodles and spicy dumpling. Everything was on point and delicious. We've been back twice. Have to say that price point was a wee bit up there but it's a small town and we have to pay extra.

What surprised me was that most of the customers were Westerners--it's hard to imagine that everyone can handle such bold, heavy flavors, but I decided to give it a try. Environment: The overall lighting is quite dim, with black tables and black chairs. The ambiance is also on the darker side. Taste: We ordered shrimp wontons, dan dan noodles, and a bowl of maocai (a type of spicy boiled dish). The maocai was quite watery, not at all like the rich, thick broth of boiled beef in chili sauce--the ingredients weren't very flavorful. The shrimp wontons were very fresh. The dan dan noodles were delicious. Service: The restaurant is run by a Chinese couple who moved to Eugene about 10 years ago. You can tell they really love this place and run the restaurant with great care. When I was paying, for some reason my card kept getting declined, but the owner actively helped me figure out a solution, which eventually eased the awkwardness. I hope they keep getting better and better!
