Frequently Asked Questions

Does Shanghai Taste have vegetarian options?

Yes. Shanghai Taste has a dedicated vegetarian section along with meat-free cold appetizers, vegetable dishes, and Scallion Oil Noodles. Ask your server for the current vegetarian selections.

How much does it cost to eat at Shanghai Taste?

Shanghai Taste is priced at $10–20 per person. A basket of handmade soup dumplings (Xiao Long Bao) is under $15, making it one of the most affordable places for authentic Shanghainese food in Rockville, MD.

Are the soup dumplings made fresh?

Yes. Our Xiao Long Bao (小笼包) are hand-pleated with 18 folds and made fresh daily in our Rockville kitchen — never frozen. We cook the pork aspic filling in-house in small batches throughout the day.

Can I order from the menu online for pickup?

Yes. You can order online for pickup, and both dine-in and takeout are available. Ordering ahead is recommended on weekends, when Shanghai Taste fills up.

Is Shanghainese food spicy?

No. Shanghainese cuisine is not spicy — it relies on a sweet-savory balance of dark soy sauce, rock sugar, and Shaoxing rice wine. If you want heat, chili oil is available on the side.
