" I've heard so much about Sang-Ji Fried Bao, and I finally paid a visit. I have to say, it lived up to the hype! The baos are made fresh on the spot and they taste delightful. The various flavors, especially the curry and original, were fantastic. The seating is a bit cramped, but the quality of the food makes it worth it. The staff are friendly and attentive, making it a great spot overall. " (*Curated Review*)

" Sang-Ji is now on my radar for quick and delicious meals when I’m in downtown! The baos truly feel like a taste of home. They have stripped down the menu to focus on quality, and the service reflects that. If you want to enjoy juicy soup-filled buns, you can't go wrong here! " (*Curated Review*)

" This is my go-to place for a quick, filling meal! The baos are phenomenal, and the warm soup they come with is wonderfully comforting. The staff are hardworking, but a little overwhelmed during lunch rush. Still, the food quality truly makes the visit worthwhile. " (*Curated Review*)

" A hidden gem if you’re willing to navigate the tight seating! The baos were truly exceptional, with plenty of savory liquid inside. I loved how fresh everything was, and would love to see more options in the menu in the future. Definitely going back! " (*Curated Review*)

" I love the fact that Sang-Ji prioritizes quality over quantity. The limited menu gets straight to the offerings of delicious baos, and the authenticity shines through. My only recommendation is to add more seating options. Overall experience? Five stars for sure! " (*Curated Review*)

" I ordered takeout from Sang-Ji, and the experience was smooth and efficient. The baos arrived hot and fresh, even after a 20-minute commute. The pork filling was savory and well-balanced. However, the prices are slightly higher than I expected—still worth it for the quality. I’ll definitely return but might opt to try next time for the full experience! " (*Curated Review*)

" As a Shanghainese, I have very high standards for fried baos and the ones here are among the best I've had outside of China. The soup filling is generous and flavorful, and the dough is cooked to perfection. The only downside was that I visited during lunch, and it was quite packed. Still, definitely returning for my fix! " (*Curated Review*)
