    I was invited to try out the truffle menu for dinner and it was amazing. We started with 3 different truffle dim sums, each with it's own truffle twist. The truffle honey chicken was very good, the sweetness of the honey paired with the earthy flavours of the truffle is perfection. Finally the truffle fried noodles were another stand out, flavoursome and with the added shredded duck it was a great dish to share. Please be aware there is another Shanghai restaurant in Emporium that claimed to be this business even though there is no link.

    Such a beautiful restaurant - it’s like being transported to another era. They have their mooncake offering at the moment and the truffle pork is the best (First time having a savoury mooncake). Great dishes and cocktails on offer as well - loved the pork belly, dumplings and spicy prawns

    So privileged to be invited to New Shanghai to try their range of short crust mooncakes. @newshanghai The owners Evelyn and Jerry are so generous and hospitable. They also lavished us with 15 tapa style dishes - each a signature dish and uniquely delicious. 🤩 Featured ⭐️Drunken chicken ⭐️Stuffed lotus root with sweet rice & osmanthus syrup ⭐️Garlic cucumber ⭐️Shanghai turnip cake ⭐️Chicken san choy bow ⭐️Peking duck pancakes ⭐️Dynamite prawns ⭐️Xiao long bao ⭐️Pan fried pork buns ⭐️Pot stickers ⭐️Shanghai spring rolls ⭐️Spring onion pancakes ⭐️Braised pork belly ⭐️Fortune rice pudding ⭐️Skewers ( pork belly, prawn paste, chicken wings, lamb cumin, salted chicken thigh) 🥮 Mooncakes All dishes were wonderful but my personal favourites are the braised pork belly (so tender and flavourful) and the fortune rice pudding. Their pork buns and pot stickers are generously filled and juicy. 🤤 And who doesn't love freshly grilled skewers marinated in secret house spices. YUM! 😋 When you step into this restaurant, you can see the care that was taken to make sure their guests are comfortable and enjoy the ambience. From its stylish bar to the modern furnishings and of course the extensive and mouthwatering array of dishes, New Shanghai has it all! 🤩 A must visit for your next meal or work function! Highly recommend! 💯

    This is in the 3rd floor of Melbourne Central near the cinema. Went here for lunch as walk in, steady traffic of customers. Service is quick, food cooked fresh, well seasoned and generous servings. Place is clean with ample spaces in between tables. Crispy rainbow beef was tender, xiaolongbao was soupy, spring rolls were crispy and good portions. The veg fried rice was to share good for 2. Had a great time here.

    The best dumplings in Melbourne. Love their potstickers, spring onion pancake, rainbow beef and Chinese broccoli with garlic. Service is super friendly and helpful.

    Lychee Martini was divine. Dumplings were good too. Favourite was the soft shell crab bao.

    Went here for dinner with my family on a Wednesday night, so it was quiet. Loved the ambiance, the lighting and music was very soothing. The food was fantastic, everything we ordered was really good. And very reasonably priced. They don't skimp out on portion sizes, we ended up having to take some home. They didn't skimp out on the drinks either, they were pleanty strong. Overall, had a great experience here, would definitely come again.
