This place is fantastic. The only thing I disliked is that we ordered through an app online so if your from California and don't have a proper cellphone service in Australia it will be difficult to order without getting charged for the data. Anyway the food was delicious you can't go wrong! It's better than PF changs in the states and PF changs isn't very good. The dumplings are just so so wonderful! We tried the pork ones with chives, the rainbow pork, the seafood stir fried noodles, and many other items and everything was balanced and so delicious. The PRICE WAS ALSO SO SO RIGHT! IF YOUR LOOKING TO TRYING THIS PLACE DO IT. read more

My friend & I visited for the first time recently and it was very disappointing. The staff were not friendly at all and we asked to give our order after no one came near us after viewing the menu for some time. No water was offered. One meal arrived 2-3 minutes after the order was given the second meal was a no show. After enquiring about the wait time, after which the first meal was almost finished the staff member did not return to let us know if it was on the way or whatever the delay was and no apology. The meal that did arrive was a beef dish and was dry. We will not return. Jill T. read more

The pork ribs were over cooked and dry. The pork and chive dumplings were mostly chives and tasteless. Will not return.

Great location, New Shanghai has the food that can capture your tastes buds and kept coming back to this place again and again.

Fairly new to Brisbane is New Shanghai, the newest addition to an established Shanghainese restaurant chain in Sydney. The ambience is one based on an old Chinese dining parlor, with wooden furnishings, traditional-looking decor, and walls of vintage posters and paintings. The thing about Shanghainese food is that it's carbs, carbs, carbs! I love carbs, but it is a bit hard to control yourself when things taste good, and then it's all over. I personally love Northern Chinese food because of all the carbs - soup noodles, dry noodles, rice cake, dumplings, and more dumplings! Yes please. =) We got the Drunken Chicken, Steamed Pork Dumpling Buns [Xiao Long Bao, ], Shallot Pancake [], and the Stir fried Chinese rice cake with Shepherd's purse & shredded pork [] between the three of us, and it was an adequate amount of food. The Drunken Chicken looked poor, and tasted too much like rice wine, and the other spices (except for salt!) were not quite there. The dish just tasted too much like alcohol and salt, and too little of much else. Their Xiao Long Baos (7.5) are actually ok, with meat, as well as some vegetable inside (which isn't typical), and the flavoring was alright. It didn't deserve a standing ovation, and was definitely not even close to being as delicious as the ones at Din Tai Feng. The first comment one of my friends made was that the makers (in the window up front) looked "noob," and that the dumplings weren't quite uniform... The Shallot Pancake (6) was an interesting shape, and not at all what I expected, as it was much bread-ier than the usual. I would just recommend buying the store-bought frozen ones from Yi-Mei. Those are absolutely delicious an easy to make. And economical. =) Lastly, we had the stir fried rice cake (11.8), which is actually one of my favorite dishes ever, but this one was quite disappointing. The texture of the rice cake was good, but the flavoring was just all wrong. Everything else had been quite salty up to this point - but this dish ended up being pretty tasteless after all that flavorful food. My overall experience was average, but the service was a bit frazzled, as they brought the wrong food to us twice. I would return, out of curiosity about their other dishes, but I wouldn't particularly say I would recommend this place for delicious, unadulterated Chinese food. read more

Rude cashier lady! Ordered take away meat buns today and proceed to wait outside as per instructed. While watching the dumpling kitchen, I noticed some meat buns I ordered were brought into a keep warm oven. Waited few more mins they still have not brought my order out, so went to check with the cashier. it was 4pm on Saturday which was not busy. The cashier recognised me without me asking and told me my order was not ready. I explained what I noticed but she flatly told me they were not for me without checking, and I have to continue to wait! A nice lady brought it out soon after. But that left a sour taste of that restaurant... read more

Xiao long bao!! The kitchen is a big feature of this restaurant in the Queens Plaza food court with a large window so you can see the staff making dumplings. We tried the hot and sour soup and a Shanghai fried noodle dish which were delicious but the highlight of our meal was the xiao long bao (soup dumplings). We tried the classic pork and the pork and crab versions and they were both amazing - flavoursome, good dumpling skin and cooked to perfection. The service was pretty good too - we didn't have to wait too long to get in and once we had ordered, the food came out quite quickly. read more

It is difficult finding good Chinese food in Brisbane but New Shanghai was able to give me a warm hug after being away from home for 3 months. Decorated as if you were Asia, the open kitchen window gave me a view of xiao long baos and dumplings being made. It was enticing enough for me to want to order all the baos and dumplings made by the professional rollers and wrappers. I ordered the pork and crab xiao long bao (14 AUD), braised beef noodle soup (15.70 AUD) and the pan fried pork buns (13.80 AUD). I grew up eating those 3 dishes and back home, those dishes were often critic simply by the thickness of the dumpling "skin", al dente and mouth feel of the noodles, the taste of the meat's soup and the fluffiness of the buns. I personally loved the pan fried pork buns more than the xiao long bao and noodles. The pan fried buns was soft on top and had a crispy bottom. Although it didn't compare to the crispy bottoms back at home but the buns maintained its soft and crispy structure even with soup inside the bun. The dish had 8 and don't let the pictures deceive you! The buns are very close to the size of your usually dim sum steam buns, maybe just a bit smaller. The xiao long bao had skins that were too thick. So once the soup dumplings cooled down just a bit, the skin lost its elasticity and become sturdy. Usually when you use chopsticks to pick up the xiao long baos, the skin would be perfectly thin enough to just hold the meat's weight to the point where it could escape. Unfortunately, the skin stood talk and mighty, and did not drope like it should have. The meat inside tasted like your original Xiao long bun. I guess the carb was overpowered by the vinegar, soy and pork. The trick to eating xiao long bao is to bite the top knot of the dumpling and because the vinegar and soy sauce was offered in pouring bottles, you just pour the sauces into the dumpling. Sip your meat soup and then devour the dumpling with 1 bite. One annoying thing about eating New Shanghai's xiao long bao was the pouring vessels. It LEAKED everywhere when you attempted to pour the sauce out. So make sure your phone is out of site and you have tissues around. The beef noodle soup had tender but small pieces of braised beef. The noodles was alright and soup based was a bit salty but still rich in beef flavour. Next time I'll come back to try the glutinous rice balls filled with pork and the happy hour offerings cause asian desserts bring me to my happy place. read more

I was driving home from a nice day trip out and about in the park when I drove past this delightful and charming looking restaurant called New Shanghai. I thought I'd stop in for a spot of dumplings, and boy was I glad I did! The dumplings were indeed outstanding, and tasted extra delicious through my Food Tube, the latest in high tech consumption apparatus from Johnson & Johnson. If you don't know about the Food Tube, let me tell you! It's an amazing food consumption apparatus, designed to blend your food into an easily digestible paste. I was a little apprehensive about getting the Food Tube installed, as it requires a full removal of all one's teeth, but they anaesthetise you good - it actually didn't hurt a bit when they pulled my teeth out. When it's time to eat, you simply numb your gums with a bit of Novocaine, switch on your portable food processing chamber, and slink that food tube into your mouth. Voila! Perfection! No need for that ridiculous, dated concept called 'chewing' and no more irritable bowel syndrome from having to break down foods! Using your large and small intestines to break down food is soooo 2008. read more

Hands down my new favourite Asian restaurant. This place is wonderful, the atmosphere is great, service is friendly, menu is affordable and the food is delicious. My friend took me here and I had a feast of goodness. They have these mango and lychee slushy type drinks that were off the chain. I've been craving another ever since. I just recommend you get there early before peak hour, but i can assure you that you'll leave beyond satisfied. read more

Visit 1: Think "I'll grab a quick lunch at New Shanghai before the real office lunch crowd arrives". I'm seated and left to my devices. For quite a while. So long in fact, and after attempts to lure the attention of a waiter, I leave. Visit 2: Take-away New Shanghai. "Pan Fried Pork Dumplings" are what I've been told are "the best" so I figure with a quick window between meetings I'll grab them take-away for a dumpling dinner. My order is taken quickly and I go to pay with Eftpos. They've got a $30 minimum. No biggie, there's my banks ATM just outside. Huzzah. Wait about 15 mins for the dumplings to arrive and I'm on my way. One word. Squirty. These little suckers are super squirty. Filled with a meaty pork parcel and surrounded by broth, bite into each dumpling delicately (one to avoid burning your tongue and roof of the mouth and two to stop it squirting all over yourself or into the face of the people you're dining with. You've been warned!). The dumplings were tasty but lacked, for me, any wow factor. I should say that while I like dumplings I'm just not at the crazy obsessed about them stage some of my friends are. New Shanghai might be located in a food court but it is restaurant style done pretty well. I feel I need to dine a few more times before I get the full experience and breadth of the menu. Stay tuned... read more

OMG! OMG! OMG! Xiao Long Bao in Brisbane!!! (I'm holding myself back on excessive use of exclamation points, people. Trust me, it's for your benefit). One visit had hubby & I planning our next trip before we were even out the door. This Shanghai-ese eatery located in the food court of Queen's Plaza (weird, yes, but delightfully cool) is fitted out to look a bit like Old Shanghai (or maybe a traditional Chinese tea house) and is just a treasure of delicious dumplings and yummy food. We literally ate 43 dumplings between the two of us. But, to our defense, the menu just made us so curious to keep trying more. (Not to mention the price - averages about $1.25 / dumpling.) The Pan Fried Pork Buns were an absolute treat, and the crab meat Xiao Long Bao reminded us of ones we had whilst visiting Shanghai in April 2012. The restaurant accepts bookings Mon - Wed, so we were seated straight away. By observing the Asian patrons, we learned to get service just to raise our hand. They are not licensed yet, but we were told they were waiting on that. Service was prompt and being able to watch the dumplings being made out the front add the wonderful experience. read more

We came during happy hour so we got free drinks! I like the Xiao Long Bao/Pau (8pcs for $9.50 with free drink, we chose dragon green tea). We also tried their braised pork belly meal with rice and additional jellyfish salad side. The meal also comes with a free drink if you will buy it during the happy hour window (3pm-5pm). read more

New Shanghai - Shanghainese Near Me - Brisbane, QLD

I went to New Shanghai for lunch with my relatives (eight of us!) and were lucky to arrive just before the lunch peak hour and score a table straight away. All dumplings were super fresh and steamed to order, we ordered almost all dumplings on the menu! The pork belly was delicious! Worth trying! Overall we had great experience and enjoyed the food. read more

My coworkers and I have eaten at this location twice within the last week. Both times we were told that the restaurant would close at 8:45pm and rushed to pay the bill. We received poor service because the staff was too busy with closing duties. Here's the deal: The currently employed wait staff are in a huge rush to close the restaurant as CLOSE to 9pm as POSSIBLE. They are so busy with refilling soy sauce and black rice vinegar bottles, sweeping, and turning stools upside down onto each table, that they seem to not give a crap about any of the customers beyond 8:15pm. I am 100% Chinese, but I am super ashamed of the Chinese boys and girls who work at this location. Effing pathetic. Sh@$ service. I've been to other locations...the wait staff elsewhere is better. read more

Went back 2 years later to see this place has still got a massive line up for dinner but it does move quite quickly. The quality of food was pretty high, I tried the deep fried versions of the dumplings too but I think the classic steamed were better. The Sweet and Sour pork in dark soy was really quite nice (I like the soft bones and there were plenty in there, so if you aren't a chinese 'bone cruncher' you may not like this dish). The drunken chicken was a cold dish, really tasty as well. The New Shanghai fried noodles with pork and vegies was okay, I found the noodles really fat... a lot fatter than hokkien ones which made this dish a little harder to eat but hey... everything we ordered came out quickly, hot, fresh and super tasty. 2 years and still kicking on with gusto... love this place. read more

No no no. Not a particularly good experience for me at all. Of course everyone will have their own opinion but for me as a vegetarian my time at New Shanghai was not good. Firstly we did have a fairly big group and it was a Friday night so we understandably had to wait a fairly long time for us to be seated - they can't really help if they're the new fad. When we were finally seated it took us two goes at having to physically get up and find a wait staff to bring us glasses for our wine before finally getting them. I mean seriously, having to go and find someone to serve you once is bad enough but for them to have needed that twice!? Similarly it took a lot of hand waving and various gestures to finally get someone to then take our order. The menu was fairly large and had a broad range of dumplings/gyoza but only ONE vegetarian?! When this eventually came out it was exceptionally ordinary and I could only eat a few of them. I also ordered "tofu in spice paste" which was in the vegetable section. However once I had got it and started to eat some of it I noticed that the dish actually had some type of meat mince throughout it all!? Why on earth would you sell a tofu dish, in the vegetable section without mentioning that there is some random meat mince in it at all on the menu description. I was mightily over it at this point and my perception of New Shanghai completely tarnished. read more

New Shanghai is one of Brisbane's newest dumpling restaurants.. and you know what? It ain't bad! There's tonnes of different dumplings to try which give more dumplings per serve than some of the other places I frequent. You get about 12 dumplings for $8 which is awesome. We went as a group of five and we ordered a stack of different dumplings and drinks and paid only $14! The dumplings are pretty good. They are made fresh on the premises. I liked the chicken and celery the best. I also recommend trying one of their frozen drinks. I had a slushy mango drink and it tasted great. Definitely worth a try! read more

So this is my favourite place. The dumplings are AMAZING. And I had a pineapple tea as well. Beautiful! Seated straight away, quick service, friendly staff, beautiful decor. I attended over the weekend with my partner and loved it. Definite date night material :) I bet it's fantastic for groups too. I'm looking forward to trying their soups, but I'm going to take a long while getting through the extensive list of teas and dumplings. What a menu! I can't wait to go back again. read more

Just tried this place last week, and will definitely be going back. Came in a group of 4 girls and got seated within five minutes even though it was really busy. Started with a chicken and sweet corn soup, one bowl was shared between us all but it really is more for one or two people depending on how your appetite is. We ordered a few dishes to share between us, I think that's the best way to do it. We tried two different kinds of dumplings that came out on a plate of about 8 or 12 but wasn't much into them as they had coriander in them. We also got a steamed rice to share but the best dishes by far were the rainbow beef and the green beans in garlic. I always look through the menu whenever I go to a new Asian place to see if they have their own variation of a shredded beef that is kind of deep fried and tossed through some sort of sweet sauce. In this case I think the sauce was plum or something, with a few whole chillies to give them a bit of heat. Not only was it delicious but they came out like a mountain on top of a plate! One of the best I've tried, and it's in my top two. It ended up costing under $20 each which is quite reasonable for Chinese food. We all enjoyed it and will be coming back again. Located in Queens Plaza near the food court under David Jones. Since this review was first written this place has gotten a lot busier, I'd suggest getting there around 11:30am for lunch as the line up gets really long. Although you may wait in line a while, when you do finally get a table your food comes out within a few minuets after ordering. Still one of my favorite places to eat. read more

I like the deco of the place, but wasn't happy with the service and was disappointed with the food as I was expecting more. I decided to explore this place today with my family and as we walk in, we did not got serve right away despite the fact is 3:30 in the afternoon and there is only 2 tables of customer. So we decided to just pick our own seats. The staff barely could speak English and it was lucky we could speak in Mandarin. We ordered some dumplings, fried dumplings, "xiao long bao" and shanghai fry noodle. That was, their popular dishes and is in a different font colour on the menu. It was ridiculous that they do not serve ginger with the dumplings and xiao long bao and we had to pay $0.50 extra for it. It is a traditional way to have dumplings and "xiao long bao" with ginger and vinegar, and we don't think New Shanghai is a genuine Chinese Restaurant....... We requested for Chilli oil which is common to have with fried dumpling since we did not want to pay for ginger and was totally disappointed when the staff say they do not have it. We ended up paying $0.50 extra for ginger that was not much to share among 4 of us. Overall the dumplings was averagely good, but the noodles is totally crap. I apologies, but it is. I would only come back for the dumplings only if I was so craving for it but I would rather drive a few more meters away to South Bank and have a proper Chinese food at Bamboo Basket! They serve pretty good dumplings and Xiao Long Bao too and with free ginger! Plus, the noodles are good. I will not actually recommend anyone to try this place, unless they are looking for a quick take away and something light - Fried Dumpling or Xiao Long Bao. read more

Choosing somewhere to have lunch just got a little easier for those of us who work in the city. Its seems that I'm dining at New Shanghai nearly once a week since my friends and I found this little gem. Great range of dumplings and other Shanghai cuisine which seems to becoming the new favorite food of Brisbaneites. There is nearly always a line up to get a table at lunchtime if you don't book ahead so keep this in mind. If your new to dumplings, I'd suggest you try as many different dishes that you can manage. We always tend to order heaps dishes but as it's so tasty there is never any leftovers. Be aware there is a $30 minimum on Eftpos so you may need cash if you split the bill as it's not very expensive. If your in the city and hankering for a dumpling head straight to New Shanghai! read more

New Shanghai is my GO TO for dumplings in town. Why you may ask? Before you get to the entrance of New Shanghai, you actually see people in the window making FRESH HOMEMADE dumplings! I like the prawn dumplings with chili, peanut and sesame oil! Very tasty. The spring rolls are also nice. I loved my hot and sour soup as well! The Shanghai stir fried noodles with pork is also a favorite dish. I could probably eat two whole plates, it is that good! If you get a spicy dish, order a fresh fruit ice drink- I had the lychee, and loved it! Service is quick, and food comes out relatively fast. There can be a queue to get a table; I tend to go during non-peak hours (say, 3 pm), and I don't have a problem being seated right away. read more

My impression of New Shanghai was that it's a take-away joint masquerading as a restaurant. It looks pretty, but the service and food is pretty meh. It's saving grace is the sheer amount of food you can get for $20 because otherwise, I'd only give it two stars. 12 dumplings for $8 is good deal, I'll give them that but they were nothing special. The Shanghai noodles with 'pork and stir-fried vegetables' we got were lacking in the pork and stir-fried vegetable department (as in there weren't any). Nevertheless, $20 to feed three people is nothing to scoff at so I'd say the next time its Friday night drinks in the city and the munchies kick in I'd come back for a feast. read more

Not bad CHINESE food, food can have 5 star, but there is typical rude Chinese service here. We came just after 8pm on a Monday, restaurant's trading hour is till 9pm. Straight away we were told it's the last order. At 8:30pm bill was delivered, and staff started stacking tables and chairs, 8:45pm all the sweeping cleaning commenced...it's not a nice experience! Most staff here are students, which has nothing wrong, they were not intentionally rude, however, staff training and management from the restaurant requires urgent attention. read more

AVOID RUSHHOURS! This place gets seriously packed in prime lunchtime, with ques out the doors for hours! The decorations,tables and chair are very shanghai styled. Service is absolutely teerible. Even after waving down a staff member, they either ignore you or say its someone elses job or will get to you.. which they dont. The food portions aint big, especially the noodles and rice selection even if the prices there are cheapish to moderate. The only highligh would be the dumplings and the sweet, sour and spicey soup... After the first tryout of this place with my mother, i do not believe i will revisit this place anytime soon or in the near future. read more

I went to your restaurant in the Queens Mall, Brisbane. I am ashamed I went there. It's the worse food, I've ever eaten. Truly shameful. 0/10. The prawns Dumplings were boring with only prawn, no other fillings- not even vegetable and there was not enough prawns. The Crispy Skin Chicken was too oily and mostly bones. -shakes head- It was thought the Chicken was gonna be cooked in the sauce. The service was very slow and not worth waiting for. I would not recommend this restaurant to anyone else. read more

One of the best places you can eat at in Brisbane. Reminiscent of the legendary Shanghainese places in Ashfield, Sydney. Few places in Brisbane have food this good. Ignoring the price. Dumpling skin is soft but has good structural integrity. The meat is succulent. The fried noodles aren't too greasy. All the dishes are done quite well. Wish they had more of these places in the food desert that is Brisbane. read more

New Shanghai has picked a fantastic location for their first Queensland outlet. Located across the basement food court in Queens Plaza, it attracts a healthy collection of curious onlookers to its dumpling-making window and it already sees a brisk lunch crowd during the week. New Shanghai's décor combines both decadence with its rich dark woods and lush reds, and classical by adding traditional wooden stools, red bunting across the exposed ceiling and bamboo screens. It's all a reminder of its namesake city, where old melds with the new. The menu is an assortment of modern Shanghai-style dishes of soup, noodles, rice and vegetable dishes. The Si Chuan style sauce stir fried with pork mince served with dry-noodle seems quite popular, but they stake their reputation on their dumplings. Punters can watch these dumplings made onsite, including the rolling out of the dumpling skin. Both the (Xiao Long Bao) and (pan fried pork bun) were surprisingly good. Given the dumpling skins are hand-rolled, the (Xiao Long Bao) skin was a little thicker than commercially available dumpling skins, but it meant the soup contained within the dumplings was secure when picked up with chopsticks. The (Xiao Long Bao) did not arrive as hot as I would have liked (not necessarily a bad thing if you have little patience and tend to bite first to suffer the consequences of hot soup spilling over your tender lips), nor did the waitstaff provide shredded ginger, one of the traditional accompaniment to this classic dish. Considering the food is fairly decent and the location is right smack in the middle of the city, I would consider the portion size for the price extremely reasonable. Their (Xiao Long Bao) are not the best we've had, but it's decent - I'd have them again. I much prefer their (pan fried pork bun). read more

Terrible service and awful australianized food. Not authentic. Also poor flavor. Grade F-.

Craving some crispy duck, we came here. Ordered the crispy duck and shared between us. It was excellent! Perfectly seasoned, served with fluffy bao buns, crispy lettuce, cucumbers and shaved green onions. Also ordered side of cucumbers with garlic..great appetizer. Service here is brisk...don't expect charming,chatty servers. But, food arrives quickly and efficiently, as do drinks. Prices are extremely fair. Expect to wait a bit at peak meal times...but that's a good sign. Every dish that passed us looked delicious. Will return on every Brisbane visit. Vast menu...everyone should be able to find something tasty. read more

Decent meals i guess, bit pricey but thats what you'd expect from new restaurants. If im paying 5 bucks for a cola it would be nice for it to fly itself in on a golden jet. They wouldn't let us or any of staff move 2 tables together, even though we were having a birthday dinner and the two tables were about 4 feet apart and no one could talk to each other. Was hoping for something as good as little Singapore but dissapointed by general lack of enthusiasm and interest in customers and meals. Ordered braised beef noodle soup, $13.50 and litterally got 5 pieces of meat the size of a spoon head and the thickness of a handkerchief. Literally... Unfortunately everyone in the party had to pay by cash because the card machine was broken, yes this stuff happens but only 1 machine for the whole restaurant? Its a ok place but i would definitely not go again. Edit. Was glad to see staff handle problems well. My brother got a dumpling dish and found bits of a plastic container in one, they replaced it and apologized. But the manager looked to give f**k all. The waiters/esses seem nice. read more

So my wife and I are both from Shanghai and use to authentic Shanghai food. Was on vacation for 2 days and the menu looked authentic so decided to try it. Order (a) pan fried pork buns (b) crab XLB - steamed soup dumplings (c) drunken chicken (d) kao fu cold appetizers. All were classic Shanghai dishes. [4/5] Pan fried pork buns The flavor of the insides was pretty spot on. The only flaw was the the buns were deep friend and not pan fried in the right way. Felt too greasy. Overall good dish. [4/5] Drunken chicken Very authentic and tasty. Th chicken itself isn't farm raised so didn't have quite as much flavor but the overall taste is really spot on. [3/5] crab flavored soup dumplings The skins were too thick and done right. The crab was cooked right either (not enough ginger, wine) so tasted a but "fishy". Overall taste and texture was ok. But definitely very average. [2/5] Kao Fu cold appetizer Didn't taste quite right. Texture was also very slimy. Probably the worst dish. I wish I had tried other steam dumplings without the crab flavor. Probably would have been 4/5. read more

So, my work team decides to Celebrate Chinese New Year at New Shanghai, Queens Plaza. I had been there before and thought it was OK. We sit down and order our meals, 5 meals arrive and then 10 minutes later my meal arrives - not what I ordered! So they take it back and I wait expecting the meal I ordered. 30 minutes later everyone else has finished and I am told my meal will be 2 more minutes, 10 minutes later still waiting. Oh sorry they are making a fresh one for me? At this point I told them not to bother and left with the rest of my team. Not a great experience. Would definitely not recommend this place and will definitely not be going back. 1 star only because there is no option for 0 stars. read more

I have always loved this place. The last three visits though have been disappointing, the soup dumplings don't seem to have any soup in them anymore? Luckily they have opened a small take away in the MYER center and I am happy to report that the dumplings from their smaller franchise are far yummier, just like I originally remember from New Shanghai! read more
