This review is for a two-item takeout order. The deep fried cashew nut pastry was excellent. It was warm, nutty and crispy. Enjoyed it. But the minced meat balls were absolutely disappointing. It was extremely salty. The meat balls were salted without the sauce. I think the chef put way too much salt in the sauce then even the bok choy was almost not edible due to the salt. This is a traditional dish in Shanghai cuisine. I still don't understand how yu garden self-declaring as a famous Shanghai restaurant failed it so badly. Hence they deserve one star for this experience. Additionally this dish is $15.99. The same dish at Shanghai Dim Sum restaurant on hwy7 is only $9.99 and is way better.
The service is okay. The atmosphere is on the quiet side. The restaurant looks clean.
