I also ordered the coconut dessert, which was cancelled from my order because they were out. Sometimes when this happens, restaurants will call to suggest an alternative. I do wish they would have done this, but overall, a great experience.

I had not been back to Tipsy Shanghai for perhaps a year or two, and I was surprised by how much…read morethe food quality seems to have deteriorated. We ordered three dishes that I had either enjoyed before or was familiar with: Wuxi Pork Ribs: The ribs were quite decent, tender and juicy, with a nicely balanced sauce. But there was nothing particularly memorable about them. The menu says the secret recipe has been passed down through generations for more than 110 years, but I found that claim hard to reconcile with what was on the plate. Slow-roast a slab of pork ribs for four hours at 250°F, I can get a very similar result at home. Famous Assorted Bowl: This used to be one of my favorite dishes here, and I ordered it almost every time I visited. Unfortunately, this time it was a real disappointment. The ingredients no longer tasted freshly prepared, well-seasoned, or flavorful. Instead, much of the dish had the bland, slightly lifeless quality of previously frozen food. Even the shrimp in the soup did not taste particularly fresh. Boiled Shredded Dry Bean Curd with Chicken and Shrimp: This is a classic Yangzhou dish and another item I used to order regularly. In the past, the bean-curd sheets were cut into extremely fine threads, with a soft and delicate texture that absorbed the flavor of the broth beautifully. This time was completely different. The bean-curd threads were hard and dry, with the texture of a packaged frozen product, and they had absorbed almost none of the broth's flavor. What had once been a delicate, carefully prepared dish now tasted surprisingly flat. Overall, Tipsy Shanghai used to be a restaurant I returned to for several specific dishes. However, both the quality of the ingredients and the care in preparation seem to have declined noticeably.

The restaurant itself is clean and well lit--a great place to stop by for a good, hearty meal. We ordered the Lanzhou Beef Noodle and Pork Hamburger. I really enjoyed both dishes. The noodles were cooked perfectly, and the beef was delicious. I will say that I wish the broth had more flavor, but it did feel light and clean. The pork hamburger came with a good amount of meat, which I appreciated. It was super juicy and flavorful. The service was quick and attentive, and I felt that the prices were reasonable. All in all, super great meal!

The place was exactly what we were looking for... Inexpensive, cozy and comfortable atmosphere! The place was a little busy, and didn't take reservations, but we were seated immediately. Amazing service and delicious food! The food was fresh and came out fast. Portions are generous, so you definitely won't leave hungry. My favorite dish was the Signature Lanzhou Beef Noodle Soup, which was delicious and flavorful, and also gluten free, dairy free and soy free. Others had something else I had no interest in to remember the name. Their menu has many options to offer, including gluten free, soy free, and dairy free options. We would come back again and highly recommend you check out this place if you are in Murray Hill Manhattan. My only complaint was that I noticed a male staff member leave the restroom without flushing the toilet, which took away from an otherwise positive dining experience.

We all got the dry spicy oil noodles and we all loved it. The noodles had an amazing chew and bounce to them and the sauce was delicious. Highly recommend this location.

Decent noodle joint for a quick bite, but nothing spectacular!…read more My friend and I stopped by for dinner and luckily snagged a table right away. Service was a bit all over the place. We got our mains well before our drinks and apps. It was all over the place and hard to grab someone's attention. We got the Scallion Pancakes to share, which were crispy and tasty! I got the Spicy Oil Spill Noodles, which was certainly flavorful and spicy. I liked the chewy texture of the noodles.

I really appreciated that. And then when the server was taking my order, he also made sure to outline some of the potential risks, such as the soft boiled egg in the ramen. I came here for lunch on a weekday, and I thought that the portion size for what you pay was great. I got the tonkotsu ramen and california roll. I left feeling comfortably full. I appreciate that we never felt rushed to finish our meal, even though the restaurant was pretty busy during lunchtime. It's clean and I like the modern ambiance, and there's also two bathrooms available for use. I would definitely come back for lunch or dinner!

Service: 4.3/5 Food: 3.5/5…read morePrice: $20-$30 if you love carbs, you'll love their lunch deal--$24 for ramen + rice bowl/sushi (dine-in only). I do find it weird that some items on the lunch set menu are missing from their full menu. I guess that helps incentivize? quiet on a Friday at lunchtime, only a few tables were occupied. What I Ordered: - Pork Gyoza: crispy + flavorful dumpling, I liked the fresh grated scallion sauce, but could've done without the extra oil drizzle - Tokyo Chicken Ramen: tender chicken, solidly good broth + noodles, a side of pickled cucumbers is an interesting choice - Curry Don Rice Bowl: classic taste with chunks of pork belly, good sauce to rice ratio

Had walked by a few times but a on post gym Trader Joe's run the pictures were enticing enough…read more Got a Lanzhou beef noodle combo with a drink and a lamb burger. The beef soup is clear and light and the noodles have a delightful texture, with a slight chew and good bounce. There's a good portion of braised beef as well. Tender but a bit fatty for my taste, but given the portion it's not going to kill you. Lamb burger ended up as overkill and will be consumed as leftovers but a quick sampling let me know that it's gamey and fatty with strong notes of cumin. Not a bad thing, but something to note for people that might not generally enjoy lamb or cumin. Black pepper beef rice bowl was solid too. Spice wise, you can calibrate accordingly but I'd recommended at least their regular spice level. Decent amount of tenderized but still chewy beef. Both dishes came with a salad of celery, carrot, cucumber, peanuts and seaweed strips in a light sauce. Couldn't quite figure out the sauce but it was lightly tart and refreshing. Space is clean and modern. Neutral wood, well lit. Service is friendly enough. If you dine in, you order at the kiosk and they'll deliver to your table. We had leftovers that they graciously packed up. Solid choice. I hope they stick around as they do bring a different cuisine to the area.

We then asked about the ahi nachos and he said they were awesome so we agreed. And he was so right. Delicious!!! My friend said, "I forgot all about that crispy rice!" Ha ha We had a great time and a great meal. Great service rounded it out. Love Wagamama!

I really really wanted to like this place and if I'm in the area I'd give it a second shot but…read morewouldn't travel to eat here. Pros: nice ambiance and the server was fantastic. Very polite. Attentive. Got us food quickly. Cons: our $6 rice ball was essentially all rice. My cold sesame noodle was a bit too salty for me. The wings were WAY too salty. To the point of almost inedible. And when I say something is salty that's saying something cause I LOVE salt. What I like others usually say is too salty and so for me to complain about salty is probably on another level for regular customers. I will say I did enjoy the cold noodles and my wife enjoyed the chicken you noodles so again it wasnt horrible but I was a bit disappointed.

The dipping sauce is quite salty on its own but dipping the bouncy noodles into them made the seasoning level just right.

But it was completely not spicy. Still great! Vibe is casual but nice. Staff were lovely. Service was fast. They were quick on refills of the Banchan too. Highly recommend.
