Oriental Gourmet Chinese Restaurant 1646 South De Anza Boulevard, San Jose, CA 95129

"this is truly one of the most authentic shanghainese restaurants in the cupertino and san jose area. their specialty is the sheng jian bao (pan-fried buns) and xiao long bao (soup dumplings). this restaurant is usually not busy at all, but the service can still be a tad bit slow due to limited workers. the prices have also gone up recently, but the quality is still authentic nonetheless."

"My party was standing in the front for about 5 mins waiting to be seated because there was only one lady. Foods were kinda salty overall and not very traditional. Portions were just ok. Will not give it a second chance."

"Great food! Everything was delicious here with great price! Ordered the steamed fish, the crispy chicken with oil and the tofu with mushrooms and cabbage. Also got the Shanghai pan friend buns as appetizer. All well seasoned and yummy! The crispy chicken was especially good, with the chicken deeply fried in oil, soaked in slightly sweet sauce. The steamed fish was very fresh and with a hint of steam fish oil and scallions, making it enjoyable. I love the pan fried buns too as it was authentic and full of hot, flavorful soup. The tofu was good too, though not as impressive as other ones. Overall a very good restaurant indeed."

"A neighborhood Shanghai cusine restaurant run by a couple. With very limited resources, customers really need to have patience and call ahead for large groups and reserve special dishes. The dishes were a hit and miss kind, some were good, some were not so good. Family style!"

"Definitely a hole in the wall Shanghai restaurant. Nothing fancy about the place. 6-8 tables with little decor. Just so good, so inexpensive, so yummy. Besides, all the 3 dishes (total $19.50+T) we had are not as greasy as the ones at most Chinese restaurants. Unlike some cheap restaurants, the Oriental Gourmet accept major credit cards, incl. Amex. It also looks quite clean and parking is pretty easy."
