    Very delicious and traditional Shanghai food. Location is not that good, in the corner of a plaza. I am sure food is not pre-prepared, as the kitchen is just next to us. Food comes slow, which is expectable since it is cooked after ordering.

    Hole in the wall! Alley special! Whichever you want to call out, the food is great to my taste! All natural culinary and no gimmicks. The service is traditionally setting for Asian and not your boutique waitressing. So relax and enjoy this region of food and have fun.

    Best Shanghainese's style I ever had. Call before go, tell them what kind of food you like, A lot of great food are off menu.

    近期发现的宝藏小店,是个很温馨的夫妻店。点了香干肉丝,腌笃鲜,和荠菜馄饨,都很好吃,特别是香干肉丝,有很浓的葱油香气,很下饭!腌笃鲜也很香浓,连喝了好几碗。而且应该是没有味精,吃完完全没有口渴。

I think they put too much dark soy sauce for coloring. the soup came last in a big clay bowl. tasty but the veggie is a little too soft/overcooked, and not enough bamboo shoots. when we asked for check, the server asked if we'd like to have some chinese dumpling desserts, compliments of the house. of course!!! it was another big bowl of sweet soup with egg flowers and lots of small sesame stuffed tang guan (dumpling). perfect ending!! this place is a staple in the n neighborhood for a long time. the food was always on par and price is reasonable. however, this time I felt the the presentation and flavors were not the same as before. we will still come back when we feel like a quick Shanghainese food.

    LT Shanghai has officially become our go-to family gathering spot in Rowland Heights. If you are…read morelooking for authentic, family-style Chinese food that tastes like high-quality home cooking, this is the place to be. The most attractive part of dining here is their incredible "Buy 4 Dishes, Get 1 Free" deal, which they offer all day long. In an area where prices are constantly rising, this deal makes it one of the most affordable and satisfying options for a large group. Because of this value and the quality of the food, the restaurant is always busy, but it's well worth the wait. I like to recommend a few dishes there. Hu Nan Tofu: This is my mother-in-law's absolute favorite. The sauce is the star here--it's savory and perfectly seasoned, making the tofu taste amazing. Crab Meat Fish Maw Soup: I highly recommend starting your meal with this. It's comforting, rich, and high-quality. You must add red vinegar and pepper to make it perfect. Bitter Melon: They cook the bitter melon really well here, balancing the flavors so it's not over-powering. House Special Garlic & Chili Seasoning (Crab/Lobster): For special occasions, their seasoned crab and lobster are fantastic. The garlic and chili kick really elevates the fresh seafood. Whether it's a casual weeknight dinner or a big family celebration, LT Shanghai delivers consistent, comforting flavors. It truly feels like a "home away from home" for Chinese cuisine. Highly recommended!

    I visited this restaurant twice before its permanent closure on April 15, 2026. Some dishes were…read moreexcellent, while others were just average. Szechwan DanDan Dry Noodles w/ Peanuts: Excellent. It was a bowl of dry noodles topped with green onions, crushed peanuts, and sesame sauce. It tasted like an upgraded version of sesame noodles with a better texture. Ding's Special Cold Plate: Excellent. This signature appetizer platter was one of the restaurant's best. It included five items: dried tofu, seaweed, pig ear, beef tripe, and spicy beef shank. Fried Pork Chop + Green Mustard Fried Rice + Spiced Eggs: A must-order. The fried rice had great "wok hei" (breath of the wok). The fried pork chop, which had a bit of fat, was crispy on the outside and tender on the inside. The juiciness and the texture of the melted fat were perfectly handled without being greasy. Shanghai Sesame Fermented Rice Dumpling Soup: A must-order. The portion was huge and enough for four people. It used mini tangyuan (rice balls) with sesame filling, and the combination of osmanthus powder, fermented rice, and egg drop was excellent. Also, it wasn't overly thickened with starch like at other restaurants. Soybean with Bean Curd Leaves: Very good. The moisture was reduced to just the right level, and the flavor was as satisfying as a meat dish. In addition, unlike the cold appetizers served elsewhere, this one was served hot. Braised Pork Belly: Good. It came with two translucent-looking spiced eggs and four pieces of pork belly. The sweet sauce was well-absorbed, and the meat was stewed until it was quite tender with almost no "porky" smell. Overall, it was a good dish, but the version at Blue Magpie in Arcadia is even better. The following dishes were good but not must-tries: Pan-Fried Dumplings, Steamed Dumplings, Stir-fried Rice Cakes, Braised Beef Noodle Soup, Shrimp & Pork Wonton Soup, Fish Fillets in Rice Wine Sauce, and Stir-fried Spinach with Garlic. Steamed Stinky Tofu: Highly not recommended! Is this even Jiangzhe cuisine? It tasted more like Sichuan-style poached stinky tofu. It was way too salty, so much so that I stopped eating after about 60% and didn't even have the desire to take the leftovers home. Shanghai Style Salted Chicken: Highly not recommended! The chicken texture was quite dry, and the worst part was the abundance of small bone fragments. I was afraid to chew too hard for fear of damaging my teeth. 趕在 2026 年 4 月 15 日正式結業前造訪了兩次。整體而言,部分菜色表現亮眼,部分則較為普通。 大合特色擔擔麵:大推。拌入蔥花、花生碎與芝麻醬的乾拌麵,嚐著像口感更精緻的升級版麻醬麵。 攪和攪和:大推,本店必點招牌拼盤。含豆乾、海帶、豬耳、牛肚和麻辣牛腱五種綜合滷味。 醇香排骨雪菜炒飯滷蛋:必點。帶有鑊氣的菜飯,帶點肥肉的炸排,外層酥脆內層軟嫩,汁水感和融化油脂感都處理的極佳且不膩。 上海芝麻酒釀小湯圓:必點。份量頗多足夠四人吃。芝麻小湯圓配桂花蜜與酒釀蛋花。此外,完全不像其他店家會摻過多勾芡。 雪菜毛豆百頁:很不錯。水分收得恰到好處,美味完全不輸葷食。此外,不同於一般常見的冷盤做法,這道是以熱菜呈現,更有鑊氣。 紅燒肉:不錯。含兩顆晶瑩剔透的滷蛋與四塊燒肉;甜口醬汁入味,肉質燉煮得夠軟爛且幾無豬腥味,整體水準不錯。只是,阿凱迪亞的藍鵲仍稍勝一籌。 中規中矩但沒到非吃不可:生煎包、小籠包、炒年糕、牛肉麵、蝦豬大餛飩、糟溜魚片、蒜蓉炒菠菜。 蒸臭豆腐:超雷絕不推薦!這是江浙菜嗎?怎麼嚐著像川式水煮臭豆腐。太鹹了,鹹到我只吃了六成左右就不碰了,連打包帶走的慾望都沒有。 脆皮鹹水風雞:非常不推!雞肉口感偏柴,最討厭的是,容易吃到細小碎骨,我都不敢大力咀嚼怕傷牙。

We were mainly craving their dumplings and jellyfish appetizer, which we remembered enjoying in the past. The food came out quickly and the portions were a moderate size. The dumplings and jellyfish were great as usual and definitely lived up to what we remembered. The assorted vegetables and the shredded pork with preserved vegetables soup were also both solid dishes. The only disappointment of the night was the House Chicken. It was the first dish to arrive, but it came out only lukewarm, which made us wonder if it had been sitting out rather than made fresh to order. The chicken itself was also pretty dry and almost rubbery in texture, which was unfortunate. Overall, it was still a nice visit, and I would definitely come back for the classic dumplings and jellyfish.

Thankfully, she wasn't serving us.
