Our Story

A kitchen built on love and flour

Shanghai Ravioli isn't just a bakery — it's a doorway. Step inside 25 Howard St and you'll find the scent of pan-fried soup dumplings drifting through the air, trays of golden turnover pastries cooling on the counter, and the quiet hum of a kitchen that has been perfecting its craft for years.

Our recipes carry the spirit of Shanghai street kitchens — where every pleat on a xiaolongbao is an act of patience, and every batch of scallion pancake is folded with intention. We bring that same devotion to everything we make, right here in Boston's South End.

What We Make

From our oven to your table

Every item on our counter tells a story — of early mornings, skilled hands, and flavors that have been refined over decades.

Fresh xiaolongbao soup dumplings

Soup Dumplings

Delicate wrappers enclosing rich, gelatinous broth — each xiaolongbao is a test of technique and patience.

Assorted fresh pastries on display

Artisan Pastries

Buttery, flaky, and baked fresh every morning — from egg tarts to sesame balls, each one is a small work of art.

Hand-pulled noodles in broth

Hand-Pulled Noodles

Stretching dough until it sings — our lamian noodles have a spring and chew that no machine can replicate.

Golden pan-fried scallion pancakes

Scallion Pancakes

Crisp on the outside, layered and soft within — our cong you bing is the kind of thing you drive across town for.

Assorted dim sum selection

Dim Sum

A curated selection of steamed and fried favorites — har gow, siu mai, and more, made in small batches.

Steaming steamed bao buns

Steamed Bao

Cloud-soft buns filled with deeply savory braised meats — each bite is a balance of texture and umami.
