The latest visit was this past weekend for a later lunch after ValleyFair. Both of my boys were very excited when I told them we were getting pho for lunch instead of theme park food. I'm sure we will be making more stops here for lunch this summer since our family has season passes to ValleyFair. The service was fast and the staff were friendly & attentive. We were happy to get our food pretty quickly since we were all very hungry when we arrived. The pho broth was delicious! My kids shared the meatballs pho while I had the pho with tripe & tendons. We also got an order of the spring rolls - it was good overall, a little bit on the dry side. Recommend checking out this restaurant if you are looking for some good Vietnamese food in Shakopee area.

The neon sign outside says "Dine In" and yet the woman who stands behind the Covid era plexiglass will shout at you "take out only!!" To that end, there is no service. They only take cash, (so I'm relatively certain they're not reporting all of the income on their taxes). And when I say they only take cash, I mean there's no other options. No credit card, no debit card, no Zelle, Venmo, CashApp... Nothing else. Now for the main attraction, the Food. I'm reluctant to critique anyone's artistry, but this food is shit. There is no nicer word. Relatively certain the eggrolls, the chicken tenders, all of it comes frozen and is loudly prepared on a grill. Since you can't see it being cooked, all you can hear is the metal utensil clanging loudly against the grill. All of the sauce is store-bought, prepackaged, sugary, gelatinous slop. I suppose the only nice thing I can say about this place they have free parking. Seriously, save your time and your cash. Do NOT eat here.

(Loved chatting with her, miss her.) Several times I saw whole HUGE beautifully roasted and decorated entire pigs sold out the door for private parties! EVERYONE came back then from EVERYWHERE! She was " famous" state wide for having the BEST DUCK. She had delicious big bowls of noodle duck soup too! Her roast duck and roast or barbecued pork were New York City Chinatown quality!!!!! ( I grew up & worked in NewYork for 40 years) Sadly she passed away and about 5 years ago I slowly saw the quality portion size cooking process and especially taste/flavor in the seasoning and marinating almost disappear. I wrote about this on my last trip from Florida where I moved 5 years ago. We permanently moved back to MN 1/26 and just returned to House of Wu today. OUTSTANDING.... Perfect Juicy. Just like in her original old days! Yay! Finally. Today the dining room was filled with 10 older and a few younger family and staff- - an EXCELLENT sign that her original recipes and wonderful care and quality of preparation HAVE RETURNED. Thank you. Thank you family.

The skin is so flavorful and the meat is tender. The bag of drippings it comes with it is liquid gold -- drizzle that over the duck and a bed of rice (rice not included). You can request extra drippings. Call ahead to reserve a roast duck with a pick up time, as they can get busy and run out. One roast duck fills a standard square styrofoam container. The restaurant is carry out only. It's located in the middle of a bunch of warehouses and there's a big free parking lot. The roast pork is also good and has a thick crispy crust, but the duck is definitely the star.

I reviewed Shuang Cheng previously, and the last time was a bit more than a year ago. In…read morere-reading my reviews, I stand by everything I've said about the excellent consistent quality of the food, the service, and how much I enjoy coming to this restaurant. I truly hope they are around longer than I am. I would hate to find out this was one of the choices no longer available to us. Please read my previous reviews for a more inclusive view; this review focuses only on their lobster. I had previously mentioned that they prices of their lobsters (I love the version with black bean sauce) have gone up tremendously. While true, there seems to have been a subtle change in their pricing strategy. Previously (as of before the pandemic), the lobster was priced by the pound, which is the conventional way of doing it. However, they seem to have two lobster prices. The first one is called "Big Lobster" and they say it's between 2 and 2 and half pounds per lobster. The price of that (as of this review) is $56 dollars, or $28 per pound. That's not really a bad price at all. It's expensive, but reasonable. The other lobster is called "Live Lobster" and is priced $10 less at $46. So the real question is how much does this second version weigh? I ordered the Big Lobster, but they said they were out of it. I asked the weight of the "Live Lobster" but I didn't really get a straight answer, but he seemed to say "about two pounds" which doesn't really make sense because that's the price of the larger, more expensive lobster. But I decided to go for it anyway. As I stated in my last review, I'm guessing this lobster is at least two pounds, based on many years of eating lobster. For this review, I had ChatGPT translate the the Chinese on the menu, thinking it was secret code for "if you can read Chinese, save ten dollars by ordering this version" but AI says the Chinese means "lobster" so if you spoke Chinese, you'd still be mystified. So my recommendation is order the version that is ten dollars cheaper and you may (or may not) be paying $23 a pound. Price aside, I love this version of lobster and it is certainly a better deal than what you would pay at an American style seafood or steak restaurant in the Twin Cities.

It was nice visiting and enjoying some of our previously go-to dishes. The soft shell crab made with golden garlic style was as delicious as I remembered, although at a much higher price now ($44+) for the dish. The seafood soup was a nice start to our meal, would have been even better if they had red vinegar. The mapo tofu and eggplant dishes that we ordered ended up being very similar in taste/sauce/seasoning but still pretty good. The service was pretty fast and the staff was friendly.
