" I had high expectations for this restaurant based on reviews, and it did not disappoint! The stir-fried vegetables were fresh and perfectly cooked. I also tried the fried rice, and it was substantial! The service was warm, and the waitress was attentive, ensuring my drinks were refilled promptly. A good place to enjoy traditional flavors! " (*Curated Review*)

" I had a delightful meal here recently. The garlic shrimp was exceptional and indeed authentic. The staff was very welcoming and made suggestions which I appreciated. The atmosphere could use a bit more ambiance, it's a bit stark. Nevertheless, I enjoyed my time and will be coming back for the food without hesitation! " (*Curated Review*)

" I was hopeful about this restaurant due to various reviews, but I must admit I was let down. Though the food was decent, I expected much more in terms of authenticity. The service was friendly, but I found the atmosphere uninviting. Perhaps I came on an off day. I may give it another chance, though. " (*Curated Review*)

" Shanghai Yau Fat is my new favorite! I was particularly impressed with their orange chicken and fried spring rolls. The flavors burst in your mouth and transport you straight to Shanghai! I found the staff very attentive even though they were busy. The atmosphere lacks a bit of charm, but the food more than makes up for it. " (*Curated Review*)

" Had a very satisfying lunch here! The wonton soup was fantastic—it felt like a warm hug on a cold day. The staff was friendly, and the meal was well-priced for the amount of food you get. While the atmosphere could use some sprucing up, the flavors keep me coming back for more! " (*Curated Review*)

" Each time I visit, I leave satisfied! The food is always fresh, and you can taste the effort that goes into every dish. Their fried noodles are amazing and worth every penny. The staff is hardworking, but sometimes the service can be slow when it’s crowded. The atmosphere may not be fancy, but the flavors make it feel like home. " (*Curated Review*)

" I have mixed feelings about my visit to Shanghai Yau Fat. On one hand, the food was delicious – definitely authentic in flavor, and I loved the salt and pepper shrimp. On the other hand, the ambiance felt a bit dirty, with sticky menus and tables. I think if they focused on cleanliness, this place could be an absolute gem. Will definitely return for the food!
