We had eight assorted small dishes and it was a very pleasant experience. The food had a strong Shanghai flare, light and delicately flavoured. The place is clean, but could do with a bit tidying up to feel more welcoming. I'm sure it would have been a lot better patronised if done. Our favourites are the salted duck and the steamed chicken.

The hubs and I ate dinner here our first night in Cambridge. It was very clean and the food came out hot, fresh and delicious. I had the soup dumplings and he got the sweet and sour chicken. We loved it all! The staff was very kind and quite funny.

Despite restrictions, we still had a wonderful time here. The food was delicious and reasonably priced. We had the mapo tofu, squid and broccoli, lamb and chili, Singapore vermicelli noodles. All great and we will be coming back again!

This cafe/restaurant opens at 11am, serves teas and coffee at very reasonable prices. Full meals also served. There is also outdoor seating. Service is friendly and efficient, and the place is usually quiet.

I went in because I miss the food from Shanghai. I didn't expect much as lots of restaurants name themselves sth but are not necessarily related. I ordered a few Shanghai dishes and they didn't disappoint. I plan to try a couple more dishes and will update this review after more attempts.

This is a small, unpretentious cafe that looks a bit meh. Go in and have some Chinese food, though, and you won't regret it. Really good. The house aubergine dish is especially worth trying.

I had the Chinese dishes here for almost two years now. They are amazing!!!! Healthy, fresh, beautiful, full of nutrients and incredibly tasty!!! The woman who own the shop is came from Shanghai and she really know about traditional Shanghai food and love her job so much! I really love this restaurant because every time I came here, I felt like go back to my home.

I've been coming here quite a long time, this restaurant really got me interested in Chinese food. It's very traditional style Chinese food rather than "British Chinese" so it was a pleasant change from many of the Chinese restaurants I'd been to previously. There is a varied menu with plenty of choice. I'm a fan of spicy food and there are plenty of great options here, in particular the Sea Spicy dishes are great, and the Hunan style prawns are amazing. That said I've sampled many of the dishes on the menu and have only had good experiences. It's a fairly small restaurant so there's no problem getting hold of a waiter, I've never had to wait long to place an order or get the bill. Prices are very affordable and whether eating alone or with a group you can have a feast at a very reasonable price. It's a family run restaurant (as the name suggests!) and it shows, the staff are very friendly and the place seems to have a loyal following of regulars as I often see familiar faces when I visit here.
