" Good vegetarian options but not the best I’ve ever had. The atmosphere is casual which I enjoyed, great for a low-key lunch with friends. The service was okay; not much to rave about but nothing terrible either. Overall satisfied but looking for something a little more authentic in flavors. " (*Curated Review*)

" I must say, Shanghai Villa really impressed me with their variety. They even have a great selection of vegan dishes! I tried a few dishes, including the sweet and sour 'chicken', and it was transformative! The atmosphere brought a sense of calmness after a long day. Will be back again soon! " (*Curated Review*)

" I visited Shanghai Villa with my family, and they loved it! I enjoyed the Mapo Tofu; it was spicy and well-balanced. The staff was very friendly, and our meals arrived quickly. They even offered us a complimentary dessert, which was a nice touch! Overall, a fantastic first visit, but I'd love to see even more variety in the vegetarian dishes next time. Will be back to try more! " (*Curated Review*)

" Had to wait a little longer than expected to get our food, but when it arrived, it was absolutely worth it. The dumplings were the highlight of the night! I loved the warm atmosphere and the friendly staff made us feel welcomed. It would have been perfect if the portions were a bit larger. " (*Curated Review*)

" Wow, just wow! The food at Shanghai Villa has redefined my expectations from vegan cuisine. The flavors are authentic, and I particularly loved their chili wontons! It's a hidden gem—very peaceful and quiet. I went on a weekday and was shocked at how low the prices were for such quality food. Highly recommend this place for anyone, vegan or not! " (*Curated Review*)

" Popped into Shanghai Villa on a rainy day, and it was a delightful find. The service was attentive, and the dumplings were delectable! While I didn't love their scallion pancakes as much as I expected, the rest of the meal was pleasant. Cute spot to enjoy vegan Asian food! " (*Curated Review*)

" Amazing experience! Food was phenomenal! The service was on point, very attentive staff. The dumplings were tender and bursting with flavor. The ambiance felt delightful. I highly recommend Shanghai Villa for anyone wanting a quality Asian meal with a cozy environment and great service! " (*Curated Review*)
