Fav go to for Chinese food. I will never not take visitors here it's a must on my going out places. They're quick with the service but I will say it gets super busy so keep that in mind when planning your dinner.

I mean what can I say that isn't already known. The spicy bean sauce fish is excellent. The dumplings are hit or miss. The ladies are always nice

This was the hidden gem in the heart of Oakland Chinatown. This is a family style small seating so make sure you go there early. They make hand pulled noodles. It was so yum that we couldn't stop eating. We also ordered spicy fish with black bean sauce it was delicious. Ordered mushroom soup and veg dumplings they're not disappointing. The service was excellent and fast. I'd go back there with bunch of my friends who love Chinese cuisine.

I have heard so many great things about Shandong and it definitely lived up to my expectations. Growing up eating at Chinese restaurants, I always found that my favorite restaurants always made amazing handmade noodles. Shandong is no different Their chow mein with house-made noodles were top tier. I'm already thinking about the next time I can go back to try them again. The salt and pepper squid, green beans, and beef dish were also all phenomenal. It's some of the best Chinese food I've had in a while. All the portions were big and for a great price. The inside of this restaurant is always busy and bustling and there is usually a wait time, but it is so worth it.

I've been in DT Oakland for the past decade or so for a conference every year, and my friend recommended this spot. I'm glad to finally check this out. AMBIANCE: Parking: Street parking, usually metered parking. Seating: Great for groups. Room for about 70 people with good groups for 5 or more. Vibes: Welcome to Downtown Oakland. You're close to a lot of other good eatery spots, historical monuments, and other pleasant sightseeing places. The place itself is nothing too flashy. It's a grit and grind area, but they are unapologetically proud of their social recognitions. There's nice pop music in the background. Great place for a food adventure or family/groups. FOOD: Deluxe Combination Chow Mein (Recommend) This is a wonderful medley of beef, bok choy, bean sprouts, onions and chicken with their hand-cut signature noodles. The noodles were truly one of a kind, from their appearance to their soft/chewy texture and nutty flavor. The sauce was reasonably mixed around, which made it pretty savory. Be sure to ask for some hot sauce! CUSTOMER SERVICE: Great! Ordered for pick up and they were prepared! TL; DR OVERALL: 4.5 Stars. Fantastic! Good food, reasonable prices, and a calming experience. Yes there are lot of food choices here but their noodles really do stand out. I appreciate the delicious food and their hard work. Wishing the best to Charles Hung, family, and team on their business! TIPS: * Too many choices!

Came in early on a Wednesday and there was no wait! We went with some hand cut noodles chow mein, Shan Dong dumplings, chicken with broccoli, and the chive-filled pancakes. The waitress warned us about the wait for the pancakes, but we already knew about that. Everything was great, but the chive-filled pancakes still really takes the top prize. It is nice and crispy and a great filling. Definitely worth the wait!

I think this 5 item deal is such a good one that I had to circle back for lunch with the Team. 5 for $59.95 We had: Beef and broccoli Prawn with green beans Fish in wine sauce Shandong Chicken Eggplant in Szechuan sauce White rice and Deluxe Combo chow mien with house noodles Parking was an adventure but Service was fast and friendly. Food came out fast with fresh hot vegetables-yum! Great experience.

No other hand-pulled noodles in town could compare!!! Pay the extra $1 for fresh noodles they make in-house, right up front. My go-tos are the green beans, spicy fish in black sauce, coconut shrimp, and of course the sesame noodles are a must. Cons: I'd watch the hours since they close for lunch, and parking in the area is a bit tough. I'd give a 10/5 if I could!

Shandong is a must try and Oakland staple in Chinatown. It's super authentic and the noodles are hand pulled tops it all. The shandong is the perfect orange chicken. It's saucy and crispy at the same time. The spicy chow mein w hand pulled noodles are definitely a must try. Everything comes out hot and fresh.
