Shanghai Taste Noodle and Dumpling Restaurant — Restaurant in Melbourne

DO NOT ORDER OFF UBER EATS FROM THEM! At 9:45 I ordered 1 Vegan fried rice and vegan dumplings. 10:30 the vegan dumplings arrived but the VEGAN fried rice had EGG in it! 10:35 I re ordered the vegan one again. 40 minutes later the order arrives, and once again to my JOY it has EGG in it!!! I call them because uber eats won't let me tell them its wrong. The lady who answers was extremely rude on thew phone to me and employees were laughing in the back ground. she says she will call me back in 10 minutes and she doesn't. so I call back and a man answers. he was nice to start but after I explain what had happened. after a 15 minute phone call he ends up saying he will make m e a vegan friend rice but he explains that they call the vegan fried rice has egg in it. I told him that he needs to change the menu and then he started being extremely rude. After, I asked for compensation for what had happened he offered me a lemonade... A DRINK. I was supposed to eat at 10 and its now 11:30. I nam outraged. oh AND he hung up on me. if I could I would give this dump 0 stars. oh AND I asked to speak to the boss and he said he didn't know when he would be in and he said he does...

Have been to this place twice. The first time was because it was one of the only places open after a late Penguin Parade, and the second time because we were craving their noodles.

TLDR: This is one of the places rated criminally low for the quality (and quantity) of food they serve. So do pay them a visit.

Their Vegetarian Shanghai Fried Noodles is a thing of beauty. Costing around 15 dollars, it is a steal for that price. Two people can comfortably share that and feel full, but not too heavy.

Their dumplings in spicy soup was a revelation, and so was the vegetarian steamed buns. The former left our taste buds tingling and everything, while the latter calmed the entire palate. Paired with the complimentary chilli oil, the buns just transported my husband and me.

However, one thing the both of us were apprehensive about is communication. The family who run the business are very friendly, but they have trouble understanding what we're saying, and we have trouble understanding them. It's definitely not going to stop us from hitting the place again, but it's just something to keep in mind if you're planning to...

The shop had a Chinese lady doing front of house. I ordered a singaporean fried noodle with pork instead of prawn for takeaway as I am allergic to prawns. My friend was with me when I was ordering who speaks Mandarin as he is a native Chinese. He repeatedly told her to make the dish spicy as I really love spicy food. Not only was it not spicy at all, even to my friend who eats very little spices, but there was no pork in the dish at all. I suppose the cook messed up the order because it was late? However this is no excuse as they charged me the same price. Moreover, when we called to let her know, she argued that it is indeed spicy and that they put pork in the dish. I am pretty sure she did not taste the dish from my box before serving it to me?! After some back and forth she conceded and asked us to return back for a second box. However we were both tired from work and had no energy to drive to her place again. I would have given one star had she not asked us to return to fix...
