"The incomparable steamed soup dumplings served with pork or crabmeat make this humble gem popular with people from all over (the long waits attest to this). Joe's Shanghai also warrants high marks because it offers superb Hong Kong-style delicacies such a..."

"If I had to recommend one Chinese restaurant in the five boroughs of New York, "Joe's Shanghai" would be it. This very popular, highly successful eatery presently has four locations, two in Manhattan and two in Queens...."

"In addition to hip, handsome, friendly waiters (even, shocking for Chinatown, some women) and an exciting menu of Shanghai specialties, these spartan restaurants, serve awesome dumplings filled with soup. The xiao lung bao are modestly listed on the menu..."

"Joe opened his first Shanghai restaurant in Queens, but buoyed by the accolades accorded his steamed soup dumplings -- magically filled with a rich, fragrant broth and a pork or pork-and-crabmeat mixture -- he saw fit to open in Manhattan's Chinatown, and..."

"The wait to get in can be long, but it's worth it for the xiao long bao---Shanghai steamed buns that somehow manage to enclose hot soup in pastry. Order them with shrimp or pork, then suck out some of the savory broth before dipping the dumpling into blac..."

"Joe's Shanghai is alright; it's not great and there are definately better places to get your Shanghai fix in Chinatown. However, one thing Joe's Shanghai does have going for it is that all the tourists and Chinatown visiters seem to make a pit-stop there...."

"This unprepossessing Chinatown restaurant introduced New Yorkers to the delights of Shanghai cooking, and right away, its soup-filled dumplings became a passion. Although you can find them elsewhere, Joe's remain the gold standard...."

"It’s true that most of Joe’s customers here aren’t from Chinatown, and that Joe’s menu offers some mall-friendly, not-so-Chinese creations, such as sesame chicken. Still, customers line up here for a reason: Joe’s cuisine is..."

"Shanghai is somewhat the French cuisine of China, complex and rich, but with an infinitely more unusual variety of dishes. The jellyfish is almost crunchy, the fish head casserole is most popular with local Chinese, and the raw "drunken crabs" are conside..."

"Let's just get the soup dumpling thing out of the way, seeing as that's what everyone talks about. Deceptively called 'steamed buns,' they look like squat, onion-shaped dumplings and have an incredibly light filling of pork or crab and a hot broth...."
