" I had high hopes for Tipsy Shanghai, and thankfully, it lived up to them! I was especially impressed by the vegetarian hot and sour soup, which packed a punch compared to regular take-out versions. The staff was friendly and attentive, and the restaurant had a lovely, warm atmosphere that made it a great spot to relax with friends. If you're in Chinatown, this is definitely a must-try place for delicious authentic food! " (*Curated Review*)

" What a hidden gem! Tipsy Shanghai is a quaint spot in the heart of Chinatown where you can savor some authentic Shanghainese dishes! I loved the flavors of the xiao long bao—they were juicy and perfect, and the service was prompt. I noticed everyone around me enjoying their meals as much as I was. The atmosphere is cozy, making it a great place for small gatherings or a casual date. Can't wait to come back and try more dishes! " (*Curated Review*)

" I visited Tipsy Shanghai recently and it was somewhat underwhelming. While the ambiance is lovely and the dishes looked appealing, the taste was far from authentic. I ordered the drunken chicken but found it to lack depth in flavor, and the service, while friendly, was a bit slow during peak hours. I think I expected too much based on previous reviews. It's nice for a casual meal, but I wouldn't recommend it to someone specifically looking for authentic Shanghainese fare. " (*Curated Review*)

" On my latest visit to Tipsy Shanghai, I expected more based on other people's reviews. The establishment has a cozy feel, but my meal was lackluster. The noodles tasted packaged rather than fresh, which is disappointing in a restaurant that claims to specialize in authentic food. Service was a hit or miss too, as I felt a bit ignored at times. It might be worth another chance, but this visit left me with mixed feelings. " (*Curated Review*)

" In search of authentic Shanghainese food, Tipsy Shanghai was a mixed experience. The food was decent but didn't blow me away, and some aspects, like the speed of service, left something to be desired. It's a nice place to kick back and share a meal with friends, but I expected more authenticity given the name. " (*Curated Review*)

" A cozy place with potential but falls short on authenticity. The pork soup dumpling was underseasoned, and the broth left me wanting more depth. However, the staff were friendly, and it's a nice retreat from the noisy streets outside. It might appeal to those looking for a relaxed dining vibe over genuine Shanghainese taste. " (*Curated Review*)

" I often visit Tipsy Shanghai when I'm in Chinatown! Their soup dumplings are the best—so juicy! The traditional decor adds to the entire experience. Service has always been friendly, and I've always felt welcomed. It’s a perfect spot for a flavorful meal after exploring the area. Looking forward to my next visit! " (*Curated Review*)
