This place is truly a treasure! I've been here several times, and I've never left disappointed. The dim sum is hands down the best on Ventura Blvd. Every dish is fresh, flavorful, and consistently delicious. A special shoutout to Joshua for providing such amazing service. His professionalism, attention to detail, and warm, welcoming attitude made my latest visit even more enjoyable. He truly goes above and beyond to create a wonderful dining experience. The playlist also creates such a chill vibe. The mix of soft rock and disco was the perfect touch for a nice little weekday dinner and made the whole experience feel even more relaxed and inviting. I always love coming here and will definitely be back again soon! read more

We had such a blast! I have not been here since they moved locations and I was not disappointed. They play classic rock, friendly service, efficient and quality food, good menu options. The kids and I loved the easy parking and escalators and the ambiance inside was relaxed and family-friendly with a view. There was also an optional bar to hang at. read more

We visited Shanghai Rose with friends and our kids. The meal started off fine, but things went downhill quickly. During our visit, I noticed an employee named Joseph loudly yelling at an older gray-haired gentleman who appeared to be bringing food out from the kitchen. It wasn't my business, but it was uncomfortable to watch. The real issue came when I received the bill. I politely told Joseph that the white rice and Szechuan dish we ordered never arrived at our table. Instead of checking with the kitchen or handling the situation professionally, he immediately responded in front of other customers: "Yes it did! You ate it and now you're trying not to pay for it!" I was completely baffled. Does he really think I'm trying to get out of paying for a side of white rice? To make that accusation publicly in front of other patrons was embarrassing and unprofessional. At that point, it wasn't even worth arguing. I paid the bill and left. The dim sum was mediocre, but the customer service was far worse. Had I read some of the other reviews beforehand, I probably would have chosen somewhere else. After this experience, I can understand why so many people complain about the service. I won't be returning. read more

OMGosh!!! This was actually one of my very first reviews from ten years ago, which explains why I was so confused when I showed up at the new location. I had no idea they moved five years ago! But honestly, the only thing that changed is the address, the food is still just as amazing as I remember. If anything, I'm glad they relocated. The new spot is perfect for a family dinner or just hanging out with the girls. I ordered all my favorites, the pork buns, pork egg foo young, and Yang fried rice. Everything was delicious and tasted just like old times. And Rose is still the owner, which made it feel even more special. We used to stop by after the show for lunch, and she would always be there, so it brought back a lot of sweet memories. So nice to see a place keep its quality and heart after all these years! read more

We wanted Dim Dum and menu was a good variety, each tasting fresh and delicious . We also tried/ loved combo fried rice and garlic bok choy. The ambience was really nice. Jazzy music to favorite 80s- 2000s lyrics. Bar service made tasty drinks while watching World Cup games. Interior is dark with great cityscape shots. The outside booths looked cozy too. Underground parking. Great place for getting away but not going out of SFV. read more

This is one of my favorite restaurants in the valley and I had to come here for Mother's Day because the food is so good.

Really tasty dim sum but very expensive for what you get. So in order to get a big variety (which is part of the fun), you better be ready to spend $$$$. Service is good. Take your order and bring it to your table. No carts. Ambience is vibey. Dimly lit and lots of booths. read more

Everything is very delicious. Great service definitely going back. If you love Chinese food this is the place you need to go read more

Went there for quick lunch. Page was our server,she was very friendly with full knowledge of all different types of dishes. Her happy packed with energy attitudes made us more engaged and enjoying our meal even more. We ordered sweet and sour soup,wonton soup for the start then shrimp balls,shumai,chicken feet's that almost melted in my mouth,fried crabs,sautéed sting beans and hot green teas. Everything so delicious and fresh. The restaurant and rest room were extremely clean with perfect temperatures and lighting. They also served outside patio's as well for pets friendly.

Shanghai Rose - 90th birthday party - Dim Sum Near Me - Los Angeles, California

The service is slow. When we came, they asked us how many were in our group. We told them our group was 6, but two are currently trying to park, so they will be there very soon, and we should get seated. They said ok, walked away, and made us wait anyway until the other two came, even though the restaurant was very open and empty. Heck, the manager who asked us, he wasn't even doing anything when he went back inside anyway. Then he came back out about 5 minutes after and although he saw and knew we were all there, still asked us if our party was complete. He SAW US through the windows, c'mon dude! Ordering food and getting it was not an issue. The food is standard, but not bad. Better than other Dim Sum restaurants in the valley, but on-par with the worst of SGV. Come here if you don't want to drive far, but remember, it's only s0-s0. read more

Bf and I have been here a couple times and he likes to come here when he's in the valley. I'm impressed by how much we've made this latest meal stretch. We spent close to $130 for a lot of dim sum, 2 kinds of noodles, and green beans. All together we've gotten 5 meals out of this order (one each dining, and three with the leftovers). Their dim sum is really delicious and I like the size of their dumplings. They're hearty and full. I really like their bao although I wish some of the pork in it wasn't as fatty. Looooove their spinach dumplings and their vibrant green color. Wonderfully unique. I believe our server was Tony and he was sweet. Thanks for your help Tony! read more

I love this place, the food is very good and the service is outstanding. The dim sum is also delicious.

If I could leave negative stars I would! B Rating for this place at Ventura & Laurel Canyon. Was going to stop in an eat but was on a call and standing outside when the bar tender came out and told me to finish my call Somewhere else, I immediately said I'm coming in to eat and he said finish your call somewhere else. I told him to fuck off and left. By the way there was 1 other person in here. Never coming back and never went in. read more

Shanghai Rose - B rating. Terrible place - Dim Sum Near Me - Los Angeles, California

Bad service! The owner insults every single customer. The food is filthy and tastes terrible. I have no idea how anyone could like this place. I've seen many other reviews saying the exact same thing. read more

Honestly I'm giving it a 4 star because it was exactly what I expected before I walked in, had a rough day and wanted a greasy Chinese spot that slaps... you know it's super unhealthy and you know they use bunch of sugar in their dishes but it's exactly what you would expect from a second floor Chinese restaurant. I would definitely go back and eat the honey walnut shrimp again. Another nice thing bout this place was the service. The server was nice and on time... I wouldn't recommend getting the chow mien I personally didn't like the burnt taste it had. read more

The ambiance is nice, and the soup and egg rolls, too, but the Pan "fried" noodles not; they were like chow mein, soft and bland. The Kung Pao tofu was way below average. Overall, the food was not up to par. I'd prefer a hole-in-the-wall with great hot food. 3 stars honestly, but for the price, and being made to feel rushed, 2.5 stars read more

Tony was very kind and went above and beyond. He made sure everything was tasty. He also allowed us to try the sweet and sour soup which is amazing!!!! Leo the manager was very kind and checked in on his several times. The hot tea has a ton of flavor. We had the Shanghai pork, wild crab and shrimp, chicken spinach, and finished off with Sesame balls. The beef chow mein with black pepper sauce very good. The look of the seating is very open and inviting. You can sit next to the window and enjoy the view. read more

Not up to standard with freshness or food quality I love Dim Sum but this place has gotten pretty inconsistent and not fresh. The last time I was there, there was a sharp metal bristle in my scallop dumpling which the guy took off my bill obviously. But overall nothing tasted fresh or delicious and that was my last attempt at giving this place a chance. read more

Not sure why I haven't been to Shanghai Rose more often, but now that I have "rediscovered" after they moved, I will be back any time I crave dim sum. My first experience with Shanghai Rose was several years ago when they were at a different location on Ventura Boulevard. I liked it then but then hadn't seen them around again. I've been on a dim sum kick lately and found out Shanghai. Rose is now located on Laurel Canyon and Ventura Boulevard where Daily Grill was. I've been back twice in the past two weeks and we loved it! Shanghai Rose is very affordable, and has a great menu featuring all of your favorite traditional dim sum dishes, along with several other options. Their shu mai is fantastic, and so are the har gow, steamed pork bao, baked pork bao, and the list goes on. Basically, everything we tried we really liked, with the egg yolk, bao being a special favorite of my party. Finally, there is traditional dim sum that tastes authentic and delicious in the Valley so if you haven't tried Shanghai Rose, do yourself a favor and stop in. I prefer this over some of the fancier, new dim sum inspired restaurants we've seen around. read more

Service: 4.5/5 Ambiance: 5/5 Food: 2/5 or 3/5 Came here to try the following: Xiao long bao soup dumplings, 4/5 - good, but I've had better Jumbo Shrimp Har Gow, 4/5 - same, good but I've had better Beef rice roll, 1/5 - terrible! The beef tasted artificial! Crispy Crab and Shrimp Claw, 5/5 - very unique, would try again! Chicken Feet, 1/5 - tasted extremely oily and stale. Would not recommend Braised pork spare ribs, 2/5 - again, very greasy and not much pork. Mostly fat. Wish I liked this place more but sad it didn't work for me! Parking is extremely convenient. The beef, pork, and chicken dishes were quite disappointing although the location, ambiance, and service was pleasant. Having Jeni's ice cream afterwards was redeeming though :) read more

We went here on Christmas Eve and unfortunately the experience fell short. While we expected it to be loud due to several large parties (which was understandable), the restaurant clearly did not anticipate or staff appropriately for the crowd they had booked. There was only one waiter handling five tables, three of which were parties of 10 or more. Service suffered as a result. My dumplings arrived after a 35-minute wait and were cold, suggesting they were not freshly made. Most likely frozen. Our soup didn't arrive until halfway through the meal, which disrupted the flow of dining. The large parties were clearly on the books, so this situation could have been avoided with better planning and staffing. Disappointing overall, especially for a holiday evening when expectations are understandably higher. read more

I was a little nervous when all the servers were white. The food was surprisingly good. We ordered the kung pao shrimp lunch with hot and sour soup and a side of har gao. The shrimp was decent, it could have been spicier. Mom said the soup was super tasty. I was also impressed with the har gao. It had a ton of flavor and the shrip-to-skin ratio was great. The price for the dim sum dishes were on the high side though. The ambiance is nice and parking is decent. If you can't make it out to SGV and you're craving dim sum, this is a solid choice. read more

Pleasantly surprised! Ate outside, not busy on a Sunday aft and plenty of space to sit & enjoy. Food was great, had pork buns, sushi roll and chicken dumplings. Sooo hot and made to order! Portions are massive loved and everything seemed freshly cooked. read more

I've been here a few times and the food is always good! We like to go a little early to relax and take our time enjoying the drinks and food...

I really wanted to try this place for dim sum. We ordered a lot of food. None of it was memorable except for the fried rice. It was just awful. read more

We ordered delivery through grub hub. Food was fine, until my sister cut into her hargow and found a metal scrubby part. This is very concerning as our 4 year old eats this often. Thankfully our child did not eat this one. We immediately called the restaurant, spoke to the owner herself, Rose. Her response was that she cannot do anything about the order and let Grubhub know. This was a very disappointing response as to where my partner then wanted to speak with her. They exchanged words, yet, not sure how they will handle this matter internally. We have eaten many times at the restaurant. Unfortunately, we will not be dining here or ordering take away any longer. To ownership, please get rid of these metal scrubbies. You need to research for safer alternatives. They are a danger to ingest especially for children. This can cause serious damage to a persons health if swallowed. read more

Food is alright, but I found the dim sum we ordered to have a strange aftertaste. Mom thought it was tasty, but we would much prefer the authentic experience with the carts. Singaporean noodles were tasty tho, but def pricey. Free and plenty of parking, especially in the underground space. Won't be coming back. Review for 7/21/24 read more

This restaurant used to be great but the quality and service ha s severely dropped. Let's start with the food it came out Luke warm and taste like frozen store bought dumplings. The noodles were bland and just soggy. The service was just terrible and the manager or owner is just rude. In total my night was a waste of money and time. I would avoid this place just overall a bad experience. place looks nice tho. read more

Absolutely phenomenal fried rice and dumplings - and the staff could not have been nicer. Also located on the second floor of an amazing shopping complex in the heart of Studio City, and the views from inside and the patio are fantastic. One of my new favorite spots! read more

This is a new location, as they moved a couple of blocks over from Ventura Blvd to the intersection of Laurel Canyon and Ventura. The new location is spacious, appealing and includes inside and outside seating! I love the all-day dim sum offerings here. Honestly, that's my biggest draw. Plenty of options, prices are a bit higher than the traditional but not too far off, and every dish has been so tasty. Service was efficient, polite and fast. No complaints there. Plenty of parking in the lot and underground. I saw a valet option, but didn't partake. I'd recommend: shrimp rice noodle, scallion pancake, fried dumplings, juicy soup dumplings, rice wrap, sautéed string beans, and chow mein. Good for groups, individuals, and for couples to share! read more

One word for Shanghai Rose - YUM. If you're craving dim sum or non-greasy Chinese food, I would definitely check this place out. We went on a Sunday evening. It wasn't too crowded. Lots of families getting together, couples, friends. The restaurant is spacious, well lit and clean. We really liked the Shrimp Hargow, Crab and Shrimp dumpling, Honey walnut shrimp, Shrimp fried rice and Mushu chicken. The Mongolian beef was flavorful but the texture was a bit softer than I'm used to. The pan fried noodles were a bit too crunchy for my taste. Will definitely come back to try the Lo Mein and other Chinese food offerings. The service was great. Overall, a great find for a dim sum / Chinese food fix. read more

I just left the restaurant after I've been sitting for 45 minutes I ordered the moment I was sitting cause I knew what I wanted after 40 minutes. I'm asking the waitress about the order and he is telling me that they had an issue with the machine which I know it's not true because he came a few minutes before and asked me if everything is OK so I assume he was not even putting the order. This is a shame to let a client wait for a food for 40 minutes and then tell them That the machine is not working. Give me an excuse when I was asking how long it will take you said seven minutes which is clearly what it was supposed to take to steam a dim sum vegetarian. I will never be there again. Don't go there. The service is awful. They did not even apology for me leaving without Eating. read more

We went there to celebrate our anniversary with family. Made an order all food came without one dish my husbands favorite. In a half an hour it came but it was a wrong one that we didnt order and it was brought by a different person not a waiter that took an order originally. Instead of saying something she made a face and took it away. Two different people walked by asking if all is ok and we told two different people that we didn't get our dish yet. So now four are involved which would be comical but not in this place and not with this owner. Another hour and we finished the dinner and they brought our missing food. Our daughter asked the waiter for manager to which he said that owner doesn't walk and she should go talk to her. Our daughter did we were watching interaction from outside since we were on a patio. She told my daughter that she doesn't care what happened and is not going to remove it from the bill. Our daughter payed of course and came back very frustrated. My husband and I went to talk to the owner and it was not about money it was to understand what the hell was happening and why. So she couldn't even engage in a normal conversation all she was saying and in a voice close to hysterical was / no free eat no free eat / we are seniors and not in a habit to race our voices at anybody and obviously didn't do this time either which frustrated her a lot. And she kept repeating no free eat again and again to which I simply said it's a shame. forgot to mention she also insisted that the dish they delivered earlier the wrong one was what we ordered an all the waiters are just standing there not saying anything and she didnt ask anything. So it is obviously how this place operates and my only question remains how she is still in business? People like her shouldn't be anywhere near service. Also she didn't of course ruined our day but we definitely could have a better night and bring our money to the place that is grateful for business and respectful to their clients. I put two stars since food was good. Do not go there you never know what kind of misunderstanding may happen and than you'll have to deal with the very bad mannered person. Actually pure obnoxious. read more

Foods are great here. My favorites are walnut shrimp and shu mai. I would've given this place 5 stars but the foods from my last visit were disappointing. The bun was very sticky, the wrappers in rice noodles and shrimp hargow were thick and dry and calamari had an odor that we often can get from seafoods that are not fresh. Hopefully it was just that day the foods went wrong. My experience from previous visits was great, including the service. read more
