Hole in the wall Chinese restaurant that I recommend. All the customers that ate there were Chinese which was an awesome indicator that the foods bomb. Of course these were all shared amongst 4 people since we had the pleasure of being invited by our friend to film a promotional video for this restaurant (we received two more dishes not shown in the photo).

This is update information of previous review. The picture is one of dishes. Please check the color of meat is very dark and it's not fresh and it's gross.

Tofu with Crab Roe
Sheila K.

We were in the area and as usual, I was so indecisive about what to eat so my husband just went ahead and decided for us lol We came for lunch and it was pretty empty so service was quick. I asked for a paper menu 'cause I was being lazy but the server said they didn't have any even though I saw some by the front lol We ordered: - Scallion Oil Noodle with dried shrimp: Not a fan, tasted plain to me. Hubby thought it was alright. - Steamed Pork Bun: It was pretty big but when you bite into it, the filling was so tiny. It was practically all bun lol - Steamed Mushroom Dumplings: Wasn't a fan of the filling, there was so much going on lol thought it would have just been lots of mushroom lol - Yangzhou Fried Rice: Was alright, they put spam in it haha didn't really taste like the Yangzhou fried rice that I know of lol - Tofu with Crab Roe: This was both our favorite, we finished the entire dish lol There were small pieces of crab and the flavor was just delicious! - Braised Pork Belly with quail eggs: Was okay, the meat wasn't too tender but the sauce was flavorful. The decor inside was nice! I also really liked their plates haha

Shanghai Bun Dynasty was great! Everything was well presented and the service was friendly. If you enjoy classic Shanghai dishes, this spot is definitely worth trying. I'd happily come back again.

Soup Dumplings are delicious

It place in the shopping mall, very easy to find a parking spot, inside of the restaurant has pretty nice environment,the taste and product are pretty good。

Sample of the delicious signature Shanghai smoked fish -
Joyce M.

I'm new to Shanghai cuisine, it must have shown on my face as I was studying the menu because the kindly chef came out of the kitchen and recommended his personal favorite dish, the one that he is most proud of - the Shanghai smoked fish - and he was kind to bring me a sample to taste (it's normally $65 for the whole fish as part of a 4 dish pre fixe menu, but I was by myself). His kindness, courteousness, and welcoming spirit was already a win, but then I tasted the delicious fish and it was wonderful - crispy on the outside, with a smoky almost citrus flavor, and the sweet and delicate sauce poured over it was unlike anything I had tasted, it's a must try for sure! Also, each of the pork xiao long bao produced a full "tang geng" (Chinese soup spoon's worth) of rich, flavorful, steaming hot sweet soup broth, the soupiest and brothiest soup dumplings I have ever tasted! The restaurant is now named Shanghai Bun Dynasty, I will definitely be back next time I'm in the area to try more of their signature dishes! I love that Chinese cuisine is so varied, so many regional cuisines to learn and appreciate! While their menu is intriguing (it includes some dishes from multiple regions - Taiwanese, Hainanese, Jiangnan dishes, even Chao Zhou's famous "mui choy cou yook") - the specialty here is Shanghainese, so if you're new to it don't be afraid to ask for some recommendations, they are all so nice! All of the wait staff are super tall, presumably northern Chinese, as compared to their petite cousins, the southern Chinese! I felt so warmly welcomed to try their cuisine, was so grateful they introduced me to their specialties with so much kindness. Definitely give this place a try, I had a wonderful experience here and will be back to try more of their menu!

You place your order through a QR code, which makes the process quick and easy. This visit, we ordered the salt and pepper chicken wings, Tidu Sliced Beef Pot, and Tianjin Eggplant. The wings are a must-order here. They're always perfectly fried and crispy on the outside while still staying juicy and tender inside. The Tidu Sliced Beef Pot reminded me of a dry hot pot. It had a great mala flavor with a subtle numbing sensation, and the peanuts added a nice crunch and texture to the dish. The Tianjin Eggplant was simple but delicious, with flavorful pork that paired really well with the soft eggplant. Overall, the food here is comforting and satisfying. It's a place I'll definitely keep coming back to.

It's in a busy complex, but there was enough parking. When I walked in, I noticed they had a half-empty dining room but a ton of to-go orders wrapped up, including mine. I really loved the Mongolian beef, and the eggplant dish we got was good too. The chow mein was good. I did like the cucumber salad, but it would be better if it were sliced smaller, so the marinade could infuse the cucumbers. Service was friendly. Food was very fresh. I did notice the portion sizes were generous and we had plenty of leftovers!

Large portion (especially for $7 when many other restaurants charge $10+ for this dish) and flavored well. A little bit spicy but mostly savory. My one nit was they were actually a bit too salty, so we waited until our rice arrived to eat them. The chicken with cordyceps clay pot rice was delicious. The chicken was well-seasoned and very tender and juicy. The cordyceps paired really well. They have their "secret claypot sauce" on the table so you can season to your preference.

The place was a bit noisy but it was nice and bright. When we walked in it was empty but soon filled up before we left. My friend had it doordashed to them and they were surprised the food came in a clay pot (I think it costs $3 more when you get it to go or delivered but I could be wrong). The rice in the clay pot was nice and crispy and the soy sauce was perfect. For some reason I can't find the pics (will post if I find them later) but it was all good! I was especially impressed with the way they did their chinese broccoli with oyster sauce. Would come by again if we were in the area!

Had a great experience prior to this with a friend so I wanted to bring my mom to try. My experience from the service however was a little uncomfortable. When I went with my mom there was no customers. The server seated us at the bench closest to the wall (the table was pushed into the bench against the wall so we had to move it.) Apparently a lot of the legs on some of the tables and benches are wobbly so they put things under to balance it. The servers told us to move it back under the table since we pushed the table out to sit into the bench. My mom is older and she has a hard time walking, she asked to switch to another table where the benches and tables were already spaced out properly because it is hard for her to bend down and move the things under the table legs. The server gave my mom an attitude and asked why two people couldn't fit into our current table.

The two of us ordered three dishes total went up to more than 70 dollars, and we ate everything (like every single grain of the rice), but we were not really very full, only semi-full. What I'm trying to say is, the price is relatively high for the portion. Definitely not the worst service, but just average. However, they still charged 18% mandatory tip for the lunch. I would love to tip more, 18% or even more than 18% if the service is good and of course tip 10-15% if the service is bad, but they just take that from your credit card leave you no options and I do not like that. Absolutely not going back again

Although the new Cupertino location is smaller than their previous spot, the food hasn't missed a beat. We started with the Taiwanese kimchi and century egg tofu with pork floss! both great appetizers that set the tone for the meal. For mains, we ordered the tendon beef soup, dry mixed noodles, and the peanut-braised pork feet. Everything was flavorful, comforting, and reminiscent of classic Taiwanese home-style cooking. The dishes leaned slightly on the sweeter side, which added to the nostalgic feel. The standout for me was the beef tendon braised soup! The soup was hearty with picked mustard elevating the natural flavor of the beef, super satisfying, perfect for me to order because I usually don't eat the noodles. The tendon so soft and melts in your mouth! W texture Service was impressively fast; our food arrived within five minutes of ordering. The interior, however, feels more like a commercial kitchen and retail space than a traditional restaurant, with shelves stocked with Liang's Village frozen foods and sauces available for purchase. It's not the most atmospheric dining experience, but the food more than makes up for it. If you're craving authentic Taiwanese comfort food in the South Bay, Liang's Village is definitely worth a visit.

It is a bit of a dumpy place right next to a gas station, across from an empty strip mall shop area! We weren't even sure the restaurant was open when we got here. We were asked to pick any table - mostly booths. There's a QR code to scan and place your order. After peruse quite an array of items we picked the ma po tofu and the beef with onions. Service was minimal- we weren't even sure presented with 2 cups and a carafe of water to start. Our order arrived and we got a complimentary seaweed miso soup. Soup was quite good with real seaweed - not the dehydrated stuff in some Japanese restaurants. Surprisingly the food was delicious! The ma po tofu was very authentic. There's schezwan peppers or Mala in it but it was not overpowering that it numbs your tastebuds! The tofu was soft and silky. The beef had good flavor and balanced the meal out. Beef was tender. Overall we enjoyed our meal. Will definitely come back to try other dishes on the menu If you're not familiar with traditional Chinese entrees the menu can be quite daunting and a turn off. They definitely utilize all animal parts!
