With most sushi places in Shanghai being priced out of the budget diner's list, Sheng Sushi (盛寿司 Shèng Shòusī) is a little sushi shack on YongKang Lu welcoming you with open arms. The tiny restaurant has only about 8 seats (4 of which are at the bar) or a tad more if the lone table outside is set up. Extra stools are pulled down from the storage space above the sushi bar to accommodate a couple more people. Most of its business seems to be geared towards home delivery, operating between 10:00-21:00.Upon arrival, grab a seat if you are so lucky to find one or prepare to queue. Take away is also an option, though there are not many nearby spots favorable for sitting to eat. The menu is listed both in Chinese and English with descriptions and explanations of its rolls, most of which are named after major U.S. cities and some of which are misspelled e.g. "Salt Lack City." The menu could have been copied straight from a Californian sushi joint take away menu that made its way to Shanghai. A lot of the rolls include some aspect that does not require a variety of fresh raw fish like tempura, cooked shrimp, crab, cucumber, or eel, which is broiled right in front of you. Considering this, it may be the reason that the costs at Sheng Sushi are kept down. Also on the menu are ramen, hand rolls, sashimi bowls, maki, and various other sides.
The Phoenix Roll has cucumber and crab and each piece (8 in total) is topped with a generous sliver of salmon, a round of cucumber, and roe. The whole thing barely fits into your mouth. The salmon sashimi (25RMB) was five thick slices of salmon served with raw radish and tasted fresh, not being rubbery or taking on a sheen from fish left out too long. The bulk of the other roll shared had tempura and a heavy drizzling of sauce. The rolls are big and surprisingly filling. Two rolls, salmon sashimi, and draft sake cost a total of 152RMB.
The sushi and its offerings are no frills with several choices of Californian-style rolls that are not commonly offered in other establishments serving sushi (aside from the classic "Californian roll"). While not being exceptionally fancy or amazing, the sushi is great for its price and the quality is a lot better than you would expect for a budget sushi place.
