    Soup dumplings
    Meredith R.

    It's been decades since I've been in Flushing when the area was primarily Jewish. I was blown away by today's visit. Virtually every store is Asian except for the requisite McDonald's. The area is bustling. So many restaurants, so many everything! Better than any Chinatown I'd ever been to. My daughter, well familiar with Main Street, said Shanghai You Garden is a good introduction to Flushing's restaurant scene. The place looks deceivingly small on the outside. Mid-afternoon the restaurant was hopping, with a great mix of clientele. So .... ** We started with soup dumplings -- free!!! S taught me how to properly eat them, filling the top with ginger and soy sauce. ** Scallion pancakes with sliced beef. Very good. ** Pork and vegetable wonton soup. Tasty broth, delicate wontons. I was happy. ** Rice cake with beef, pork, chicken and seafood. I don't want to call this a dud -- but in my estimation it fell short with fake crab and little flavor. (Since my husband doesn't read my reviews -- guess what leftovers he's getting for dinner!) Cash only. Interesting menu. (If you're looking for deep fried hooves, this is the place.) 2020 Zagat rating.

    Large soup only dumpling - drink with a straw
    Gordon Y.

    Cuisine: 7 Service: 7 Decor: 7 Value: 7 Overall: 7 I guess this updated review is long overdue. I am harsh on Shanghainese restaurants because I grew up eating the real thing and just visited Shanghai last year. However, this restaurant has become the standard by which I judge Shanghainese cuisine in NYC nowadays. Let's start with the Shanghainese style dim sum that I love. As consistent as anywhere, I believe they have my personal favorite Steamed Soup Dumplings. I'm even a fan of their large gimmicky ones (though a real thing from Yangzhou, China) with the straw, especially the crab and abalone version. Another top notch item is the Turnip Puffs, which has a fantastic filling and amazingly crispy and airy crust. Most of the other dim sum items are decent. When it comes to the cold and hot dishes, they do most of the traditional stuff well enough. Not always up to my standards, but most people I have taken there enjoy it enough. I do like their Stir Fried Rice Cake w/ Sheperd's Purse & Shredded Pork, ad well as their Duck Vermicelli Soup. Also, since they started working with Corner 28, their Cantonese food game stepped up quite a bit. Roast pork and Roast Crispy Pig are both really solid. Pan Fried Shrimp & Chive Dumplings are good too. There are a few other Shanghainese restaurants that do certain dim sum or dishes better, but I do believe Shanghai You Garden is currently the best overall Shanghainese restaurant in NYC.

    Came here for a quick breakfast. The soup dumplings were good. The service is your typical Chinese restaurant. It was pretty busy. The chive thing was okay, I don't think it's my first choice. The soymilk, soup dumplings, and the free dessert were all good.

    This restaurant is pretty well known amongst the locals and for good reason too! Dishes are delicious and very reasonably priced. Though make sure you have cash on hand or can pay with venmo. Pretty sure you'll find that cash is king here in Flushing. Literally a hole in the wall restaurant. Turn left when you enter to be led into a narrow alley leading to the main dining area or head on straight upstairs for more seating during peak hours. Very foreigner/non Asian friendly as menu comes with pictures. Staff are very attentive and are always walking around. Staff can speak conversational English. Restaurant is as clean as it gets in Flushing. Their Xiao long bao is very good! Definitely a staple whenever I go. Shao Mai is good too. And omg the soup they gave you as a complementary dessert at the end is soooo good.

    One of my coworkers invited us to a lunch meeting at this restaurant. This place is crowded so I was so excited as I was looking forward to eating great food. The waitresses were very friendly and good. We ordered a few things. The soup dumplings flavor was good but the skin is way too thick. The restaurant is bright and clean. You may want to revisit the wraps of the soup dumplings.

    Garlic green beans, delicious!

    Service was great, plenty of help on the floor for quick seating and quick service. We are here in NYC for our beloved Dodgers vs the NY Mets. We took the #7 to the Flushing main St stop, wow! I read they had great Asian food here but I didn't realize I would be in Asia. We were recently in Tokyo and in Korea, it felt just like we were there again. Ok, back to the restaurant, we ordered seafood and noodles, garlic green beans and pork Shao mai, so delicious. And a secret we didn't know if not for a gentleman next to us. Below the Shao Mai there were complimentary soup dumplings!! And they were amazing. I'd come back here for the food (next time the Dodgers are here), it was very enjoyable. And you know you're in the right place when it's all locals enjoying this very busy gem.

    Great spot for family dinner. -Peking Duck: crispy duck skin with tons of Baos. We got half a duck and it came with 12 Baos. -scallion chicken: juicy chicken with ginger scallion sauce. Would get again -house fried rice: tasty, and was super generous in toppings (shrimp, pork, etc.) -soup dumplings: this was a freebie and it was delicious! Service was great and restaurant was clean.

    We had a group of 7 so we had free Peking duck buns, one per person. The food is always good here and the price is very fair for flushing. We love their soup dumplings. I do like the bayside location more than the flushing location because flushing only has one bathroom and it's a smaller compared to bayside.

    I'm here again in downtown Flushing, the place to go for reasonably priced asian food and reasonably priced anything. I gotta slow down eating out so often. I think I'm gaining weight. However, its somewhat diffucult because my whole family are all foodies, and my niece is a Yelper. In any case, my wife wanted to grab a few Peking Duck wraps, $2.75 each, at the outside takeout window. You can't go wrong with Peking Duck. It was delicious and very satisfying. Recommend if you need a quick bite to eat.

    Finally able to visit this popular spot. Been hearing great stuff for many years but never dine in until now. Came with friends for an late breakfast (or is it brunch?). There is a dine-in table promotion [must spend $10] which you can get a choice of either: 1 order pork soup dumplings OR 1 piece Peking duck bun per person at the table. We chose the soup dumplings. Family style meal; we ordered: Braised Pork, Fried dough rice roll, Spicy Pork Soup Dumpling, Soy Sauce Duck, Garlic Cucumber, Roast Ribs, and Pan-fried Beef Udon Noodles. Place is super spacious and stretch all the way to the back. Service and staff was quick; staff brought over stuff as soon as it was ready as it was early with only a few other tables filled. Lots of eyes to pay attention to us since they had just opened for the day. Food was good. Spicy pork soup dumplings were not that spicy. Everything was amazing! Flavorful and tender, crispy (duck skin), or crunchy (cucumber). My favorite (also the table's favorite) was the braised pork. So tender and flavorful that it melts in your mouth- goes great with a bowl of hot steaming fresh rice. The garlic cucumber provides a great palate cleanser as it was refreshing. I'm a noodle lover but we did struggle to finish the udon as it wasn't anything special compared to the other dishes. The udon was nicely charred (wok hay) but we enjoyed the other dishes more. Good thing it came last We finished everything even though some were abit heavy for a first meal of the day. That is why you wash everything down with many cups of hot tea!!! At the end of the meal, it even came with a complimentary dessert soup at the end. That was a lovely sweet surprise. Highly recommend! I'm super happy that I was able to visit here and try the food. Although it would also been nice to try their Peking duck bun as they are known for it. Perhaps another visit.

    I've been coming here since they first opened and I'm so glad their business has gotten better and better that they've expanded for more dine in seats (they got the place next door and opened up the upper floor). Pretty authentic Shanghainese cuisine, I know it's not as good as those in Shanghai ofc but hey, it's close! Deal for dine in: spend $10 or more and get either free pork soup dumplings (6pcs) or a pc of Peking duck bun per person at the table. I always opt for the soup dumplings! I usually come for breakfast/lunch so I regularly order the same (for 2 persons - to share): - salted tofu pudding - 4 pc turnip puff - 4 pc pork moon cake - shredded pork and preserved vegetable noodle soup - curry beef vermicelli soup Environment: usually busy Service: standard Please note: cash only

    Garden Special Soup Dumplings, pan fried pork and chive
    Aye K.

    This place is amazing! It was quite busy and we waited about 15-20 minutes to get seated for a weekend lunch, but they move quickly and the space is pretty large. First of all, every table gets a complimentary order of pork xiao long bao, which I have never seen any restaurant do before. The XLB had the perfect delicate wrapper with flavorful soup and juicy meat inside. We also tried the sheng jian bao, which are crispy pork buns. These were so good and I think I liked them even more than the XLB. The garden soup dumplings were a fun variety with different flavors. We also had the pan fried pork and chive dumplings, which were nicely crispy and very satisfying. Overall, an amazing spot and everything we ordered was delicious. Fast and friendly service. Highly recommend!

    Bryson S.

    Such an awesome place! That sells Peking duck bun by the piece! For a very reasonable price. Perfect for a flushing food tour, and delicious portion of crispy, fatty, duck in a nice bun. Would definitely go back and am salivating thinking of it!

    Yes we do. Please call 718-886-2286 for reservation. Thank you

    08 to 1100AM breakfast only?

    Do they offer gluten free food options?

    Rice is gluten-free but soy sauce isn't. So it really depends on your level of tolerance.

    Are there heat lamps for outdoor seating?

    As of October 2020 how much is the spicy beef tripe? After tax?

    $9.25 after tax

    It's been over 1 year since I visited. Do they charge tax for lunch takeout if I pay cash? I don't think they did but I don't remember.

    All soup dumplings are pork based? My middle easterner friends can't have pork 😅🙈

    They do not have veggie dumplings, and the only difference is you can get them all pork or pork with crab broth. You will be hard pressed to find halal dishes in Flushing, unless you go to a vegetarian restaurant. You can also try Joe's Shanghai, as… 

    How was the take out experiences? Long wait? Was the food as good as dine in?

    This food is meant to be eaten fresh, in the restaurant. If you get take out, it's still very good, but your soup dumplings won't have any soup left.

    Yes

    Can the restaurant do take out for breakfast?

    Yes, we do take out and delivery.

    Take credit cards (Amex)?

    It's cash only, they have an ATM. The food is wonderful.

    Hi Alexis, We don’t have the Yellow Canton SuiMai, we have the shanhaiese SuiMai which is just delicious as the canton one.

    Do you still have the free XLB if you order over $10?

    Hi G L, yes we still offer free order of Shanghai Xiao Long Bao with purchased over $10.

    Cantonese cuisine has seen a noticeable drop in the Flushing scene as of late, with Shanghainese…read morefare following suit. Lao Ke Le is one of the only dedicated Shanghainese restaurants left in the area and they've done an outstanding job at making the cuisine more relevant than ever. The name is super Shanghainese, "老克勒" is a local slang to describe a sophisticated old school gentleman. There are some controversies that debate the origin of the word and even one that promotes the idea that it's a western loanword for "old clerk." No matter how one slices it, it is an exclusively Shanghainese term. Located in the New World Mall, it has been a near annual destination for me whenever I visit Flushing. I appreciate the spacious booths, nod to old Shanghai with the decor and museum rickshaw piece, and the bustling staff who sometimes will loudly bicker in front of patrons. It's not a perfect place by any means, with high prices and occasionally subpar service, but the food execution has been good enough to trump it every time. It is a group friendly spot, a date friendly spot, and casual enough to enjoy quality fare without the pretension. (#1) The black truffle and pork soup dumplings (黑松露小笼包 - $16) as well as the crab soup dumplings (蟹粉小笼包 - $13) are divine. The soup to light skin ratio is on point, though I do wish there were more than 6 pieces per order. The Shanghainese style huntuns (aka wontons) (上海小馄饨 - $10) are very good. While their pan fried dumplings (老克勒锅贴 - $12) are fat pot stickers, but it's also one of the juiciest dumplings I've ever had. Almost every time I've sank my teeth in them, a shot of broth squirts out into the ether. (#1) I am also enamored with the fried gluten (四喜烤麸-$12), which has a tinge of sweetness and flavorful with every bite. I'm also a sucker for the soy peas with pickled cabbage and shredded bean curd (雪菜毛豆豆干 - $10), which is basically every vegetarian's dream at slightly colder than room temperature. Their pork rice dumpling is basically a meat stuffed tangyuan (鲜肉汤圆 - $12), and is a nice savory take on a dish that I would normally associate as dessert. Their Shanghai style hong shao red braised pork (招牌红烧肉 - $27) is diabolical with how well marinated it is. While I love it with rice, it is texturally complex on its own and is obviously one of their signature dishes for a reason. The sauteed crystal shrimp (水晶虾仁 - $26) is not a must-order, but a good-order and wonderfully presented with a good amount of shrimp. I can never escape a quality Shanghainese meal without enjoying a scallion oil noodle (葱油拌面 - $10) or even the Shanghainese pan fried udon (上海粗炒面-$15), both of which are excellent here. The ultimate dish for me has been their crab roe meat noodles (蟹粉拌面 - $23) which is one of the most indulgent dishes I've had. The crabbiness is on another level and the textures are so rich that the flavor profile is through the roof. It is with sincere hope that they continue to keep their high standards while remaining a quality establishment. At the rate most NY spots keep dropping, I hope they demand for Shanghainese far remains to keep the Lao Ke Le dream alive. ___________ (#1) Embarrassment? Yes. Delicious? Also yes. (#2) Ironic, given Shanghainese stereotypes.

    My friend and I were at New World Mall and randomly came across this Shanghainese spot, so we…read moredecided to give it a try. Soup dumplings (pork & crab) - not bad, but I've had better. The filling was decent, but the vinegar on the side was too mild. I'm used to a darker, more robust vinegar with XLB, so this didn't quite hit. Braised pork - very tender and flavorful, served with quail eggs. This was one of the stronger dishes. Yangzhou fried rice - not too oily which I liked, but served with only 5 an small shrimps... Sweet & sour shredded potato (cold dish) - slightly spicy, I really enjoyed this one. It was part of a promo where you can get it for $1 when you spend $30 on entrees, so definitely worth adding. Overall, I enjoyed the meal. Not everything stood out, but it's solid enough that I'd recommend it, and I'd come back to try more of the menu.

The skin was thin but held up well to the filling and broth without any spillage issues. The pork filling was so juicy, and the broth was sweet and rich with pork flavor.

The pork belly in mashed garlic was good, but I wish the cucumbers had been more chilled and fresh. I liked Uluh's version of this dish more. Next time I would try the boiled chicken in chili sauce or the crispy fish. The flavor and texture of the braised pork belly were amazing. The pork was tender and fatty. The prawns were fantastic and very garlicky, just how we like it! The rice was pretty good and actually had a decent amount of seafood, but I found the shrimp to be the same quality you would get from a takeout Chinese restaurant.

    The serving sizes were a bit small for a few items. Really enjoyed the ma lan tou tofu salad,…read moreoffering a wild flower plant I hadn't tried before. The wontons were large and amply filled.

    We came here for lunch today, and unfortunately, it was a disappointing experience overall…read more I had heard about this Shanghai-style restaurant for quite some time and was really looking forward to finally trying it. Sadly, the food did not live up to my expectations. On a positive note, the service was good. There was only one server, a young woman working this afternoon, and she was courteous and pleasant throughout our meal. For drinks, Hubby ordered Aunt Xu's Blood Glutinous Rice Milk Tea, while I had Aunt Xu's Blood Glutinous Rice with Fresh Milk. Both were refreshing and delicious, and these were probably the highlights of our meal. I ordered the Stir-Fried Tomato and Scrambled Eggs Mixed Noodles. It was decent, but nothing particularly special or memorable. The biggest disappointment was the Double Mushroom and Vegetable Heart Gluten Pot. There were barely a few pieces of gluten (面筋) in the entire dish. For a dish that features gluten as its main ingredient, the portion was incredibly disappointing. The taste was just okay--nothing particularly memorable. Gluten pot is one of my favorite Shanghai dishes, so I was especially excited to try it here. Unfortunately, the dish was far from what I had hoped for and made the experience even more underwhelming. Hubby ordered the Crispy Bottom Pot Stickers, which he described as just okay--nothing memorable and certainly not something that would make him want to order them again. We really wanted to love this place, but unfortunately, the food simply did not impress us. Aside from the refreshing drinks and good service, there wasn't much that stood out.
