The best Korean-Chinese style restaurant in Bellevue!!! The Jajangmyeon and Jjamppong are both above average. This place is also great for hanging out with friends, enjoying delicious food, and having a drink! The food is really tasty!!

Shanghai House has been on my to-try list for quite some time, as Chinese restaurants on Eastside are usually pretty solid - I grew up eating Shanghai food, so I was excited to stop by and see how it is done in the greater Bellevue area. We went on a Wednesday around 6:30pm and had no wait to get seated. The restaurant has parking that is shared with many other vendors along a line, and I can definitely foresee parking becoming a issue during busy hours as there aren't a ton of parking spots - just to note during peak business hours. We were the only diners during our visit, so service was focused entire on us - I personally felt that the service could have been better as the waitress made us feel a bit rushed when ordering. The ambiance is casual dine in, with Chinese inspired decor. The lighting was a little bit off as it was pretty dim with a fluorescent color - unfortunately felt a bit like they were at closing time with the ambiance vibes. We ordered three dishes, which I'll review down below: Lions Head Meatballs ($25): I've had lion's head meatballs at another Chinese establishment on Eastside, and these are decent meatballs in comparison for very slightly cheaper. Tender and nice light flavor, it is nice that they are supplemented with bok choy as they are quite hearty. Salted Egg and Shrimp Tofu ($20): I think this was my favorite dish out of the three. Better quantity and the salted egg gives a nice creamy and subtle savory flavor, and goes nicely with rice. Tofu is cooked well, and there is a small scattering of shrimp throughout the plate. Shanghai Style Braised Kaofu ($15): A cold Shanghai kaofu is a classic dish that I've tried many times, and I think a restaurant should serve if they are Shanghainese. The kaofu has nice flavor - not too sweet and not too salty with a pleasing spongey texture. I only wished that the quantity was bigger for $15 - the spoon for scale really gives the impression of how large the plate was, and underneath the initial layer of kaofu you see in the picture, there unfortunately wasn't any more, just other components like bamboo shoots and woodear. Though most of the dishes had good flavor, the pricing was steep considering the amount of food you get for the price you pay. I left still feeling a bit hungry as Shanghai dishes are usually lighter and don't fill you up as much. Though there aren't too many other Shanghai restaurants to compare to on Eastside, I'll probably put Shanghai House at like a 3.5/5 in all things considered.

This place is own by Chinese but they got Korean style Chinese menu and they are so good. I think best in Seattle area!!!! Jjampong is so good. Pork tangsoouk is amazing. Will come back again.

Not sure why Yelp also has this place listed as Korean in addition to Chinese but it's definitely wholly Chinese lol. We came on Chinese New Year and it wasn't very busy. Service was pretty fast too but the dishes each came out in very distinct intervals. For 3 people, this was a perfect amount (we finished everything) - kao fu, veggie fried rice, salted egg yolk covered pumpkin, red braised pork belly, and green beans. We weren't originally going to get the fried rice but rice was $2 a serving anyway so we figured might as well. I've never had kao fu before but it's this seitan dish thats's saucy and sweet. Quite good. Green beans were good as the standard, and I love any salted egg pumpkin dishes anywhere so that was good. The pork belly was quite thick and sweet for me but I'm weird about not liking that. Others definitely did. It also came with tofu skin knots in it which was good. Overall good taste but a bit expensive and it's weird we were able to make our way through so many dishes. Could probably do with slightly larger servings.

Only Shanghai restaurant in Seattle area. Have many very shanghai dishes. But they moved to this much smaller place, so that it seems the options of dishes are less than before. I recommend to dine in, the dishes take-out is not as good as fresh cooked. Some dishes are pricey. But this is the only Shanghai restaurant, so we have no choice. Free Parking. Service is good. this restaurant has been remodeled so it's better than soft-opening.

I really enjoyed this Shanghainese restaurant. Every dish was perfectly cooked to the right texture. Nothing was overly salty or greasy. All flavors brought me back to Hong Kong Shanghainese flavor. I also enjoyed their private rooms for our party of 6.
