Hai Shang has the best soup dumplings! We love coming here and usually take people from out of town when they come in. The food is always delicious. We usually get soup dumplings, jellyfish, lemon chicken, shrimp with vegetables, and we'll try a new dish too.
The shrimp tastes so fresh and juicy. The soup dumplings are very tasty.
Everyone who works there is so nice and always remembers us, even though we don't go in that often.
Fantastic soup dumplings! I think they are only available on the weekend but wow. The service was also superb, with an owner coming and speaking to our table about recommendations based on our preferences and cravings. Excellent all around.
One of the best Chinese food restaurants in Winnipeg. Very far down Pembina almost at the perimeter. Parking is free but not a lot of spaces, but street parking closeby. Service always friendly and attentive. Our large takeout order was ready on time and we got an extra pork dish for free because of how much we ordered. Sauces are excellent. Their crispy ginger beef is well prepared but they should use better quality beef, otherwise, dinner was excellent. We would definitely order from there again. OK for eat in, clean and basic, and able to handle large groups.
Very very good food and very nice hosts! My personal rating is higher than a 6. Very helpful with choices if you ask , their food is fresh and flavourful. I have never had a bad meal here and I’m a regular of 7 years. If your looking for authentic Chinese this is the place, the bigger places lose their quality control but this small but bizzy place is always spot on. The hosts and chef are one hundred % great ! Try here you will not go anywhere else after! My favourite eggplant hot pot - garlic galane!
Went here to try out the soup dumplings I had seen all over social media. The restaurant was empty when we went and an older woman was out server. She assumed we had come for soup dumplings. We ordered a couple (one for myself and my friend) and to try something else different, we ordered the jelly fish. I have never had jelly fish before. The texture was weird but not off putting and it tasted pretty good. I may not Order again but it was good to try something new.
I had never had soup dumplings before and our server was kind enough to show me how to eat them. They were good. Nothing amazing but good. Our server treated us like we were guests in her home. She was literally the sweetest server ever. We tipped her well for it and she was sooo nice she said “oh no too much” and ended up running outside to give us cans of coke 😂😂 lol. Will return soon.
First time and it didn't disappoint! When I heard they have Xiao Long Bao (Soup Dumplings) I got excited to come here.
When we arrive, they're still closed (they close between 2:30-4:30pm) and we got there almost 4pm but the owner still entertained & welcomed us. We ordered their Chicken Chow Mein & Xiao Long Bao (8 for $8.85). Everything was good! Although I thought the dumplings would be bigger, they're the perfect size for me, the soup inside was really rich and flavourful and the filling was tasty as well. Their Chow Mein was good too and noodles were perfect for me.
Service was fast and friendly! Clean place too.
Would definitely come back and have Xiao Long Bao again and probably try their other menu.
Hai Shang is unique in Winnipeg as the only Shanghai-nese restaurant in town. And yet they do not rest on their laurels but instead serve great authentic Shanghai cuisine, led by a great version of Xiao Long Bao soup dumplings. And while the menu is diverse enough to accommodate Cantonese and Western style palates, you would be remiss to miss their Shanghai inspired items. An easy recommendation.
The place is very clean, always friendly and reasonably priced. The owner treats you like you're family and the food is great so why go anywhere else?

This is our go to for take out. We live about 30 mins from Winnipeg and order from here every chance we get. Been to many Chinese restaurants in Winnipeg this is top of our list!
I have gotten takeout on numerous occasions and the food has always been fresh and excellent. I have eaten at a lot of Chinese restaurants across Canada and this one has proven very good time again. As others have stated already, the Crispy Ginger Beef is worth the try.
