" On a whim, my friends and I decided to check out TJ's Shanghai Dumplings since we were craving authentic dumplings. The first thing that stood out was how small and unassuming the place was, but don't let that fool you! Once you place your order, it's a busy atmosphere as you see them prepare each meal fresh. We ordered multiple types of dumplings to try everything, and the flavors were out of this world! I especially loved their special ginger dipping sauce which took the dumplings to a whole new level. The service was fabulous—the staff was friendly and even gave us a free drink while we waited, which showed their genuine hospitality. I'm already looking forward to our next visit, and I highly recommend anyone searching for the best dumplings around to make the trip here! " (*Curated Review*)

I ordered the pork dumplings and was blown away by the juiciness of the filling, coupled with the delicious dipping sauce! I also had a green onion pancake that was flaky and surprisingly delicious. The owners were the sweetest people who made my experience memorable with their genuine hospitality. It's a small takeout place but filled with charm, and the food is authentic. I'd highly recommend it to anyone who loves good dumplings! " (*Curated Review*)
