Sheng-Shui is the BEST hidden-gem, authentic chinese food spot in South Orange County, the interior is absolutely beautiful, service is magnicifcent and friendly, and the food is so tasty and flavorful. I have no doubt will be returning VERY soon!

I had no idea what to expect fish soup to taste like, but really enjoyed it. The spicy sauerkraut fish soup is delicious - the fish soup is very well balanced (not too fishy) and the sauerkraut gives it a yummy pickle-y kick.I returned with my husband because I thought he would like it, and tried the stir-fried pork belly that time as well. I liked the stir-fried pork belly even more than the fish soup!I highly recommend this place.

Food is good. Service is bad.The lady at the counter was absolutely rude. We had a group of 9, though we ordered individually at the counter, we served water ourselves, she charged each order with a 20% service fee. What service?

Uni fried rice was unique. I have never had any fried rice like it before. The fish rice noodle soup was rich, thick, and had depth. It almost tasted like beef bone or chicken bone soup, but much healthier. Im coming back here again to try some other stuff, too. I also took home the salivating chicken, which was spicy and delicious. The server was terrific! He worked alone, but he was attentive enough and generous.

Seems like a mom and pop type of noodle restaurant that specializes in fish broth. The service was slow considering they only had 1 student looking server. The food came out in random order. I don’t recommend the chicken kaarage, the chicken tasted a little off and I was nervous it wasn’t fully cooked. The noodle soups and fried rice was pretty decent. It was good to try something new but we probably won’t be coming back.

This place hands down to the best fish noodle soup. I only get fish noodle soup here. There are other dishes and are great but I just stick to their house special fish noodle soup. The broth is rich and not fishy. Super tasty. You can choose ramen noodles, rice noodles or udon. My recommendation is go with the original rice noodles.

Have you tried Chinese fish noodles? My first time trying and I love it!Highlights of the menu:1. House special fish soup - light fish broth2. Salted egg with pork fried rice - super yummy. Rice is dry with tasty salty egg flavor3. Sauteed clams4. Fried calamari

TL; DR: great food and environment. Definite stop by if you want to taste authentic Chinese rice noodle.The fish soup was on-point. Maybe a little blend for some people, but just a hint of salt is all that’s needed to enhance the flavor. Beef brisket was great with the tomato soup. If you are a fan of tomato based hot-pot, definitely try it out. Beef tongue tasted like how it should, and the fried calamari was pretty flavorful.

So I dont like fish soup but this place makes really good fish soup. The broth is hearty and good and not fishy at all.They dont use msg or anything of the sort. Def. Became one of my togo places.
