The food is always amazing. The portions are huge. You will definitely have enough food for leftovers the next day. Everyone that works here is extremely friendly. Andy is often the waiter that helps us and he is so nice. If you eat here, ask for Andy, he will take good care of you.

This guy big lair complain about service, I sit next table behind him and his wife, he complaint because he want free food, male service very very good, and super nice service. Very very friendly and happy, I will be back, restaurant, again, I hear they both ask for fried rice, but the service said fried rice is cost for extra, but they both don’t want pay, that why get mad and complaint about this stupid, he super super good service, and happy smiles, food super good, they both lair everything, I see service guy very happy and friendly never upset anything about service with them, I see them when another restaurant try complaint because want free food. The service guy show them how to put food on the bag but they said I know how to do do it. They both big lair, the owner don’t need believe this guy comparing they lair.

Shanghai in Milan is hands down the best Chinese restaurant I’ve ever had in America! The crab rangoons and egg rolls are absolutely amazing, and every dish is full of flavor. Consistently fresh, hot, and delicious — truly a hidden gem in the QC!

Major drop off in quality. I’ve literally visited this restaurant since the late 1980’s and back in the day it was some of the best Chinese food around.

After a change in ownership I initially thought it was just as good but something here about the consistency has seriously changed.

It used to be 9/10 times it was great, but as of late the chances of getting a good meal has dropped significantly.

I don’t know how else to say it, the food tastes like it’s leftovers. Once upon a time every meal was served hot and fresh with ample sauce, now the food is often times tough and chewy, with no sauce. You know how that happens? Microwaved food.

My guess is that due to lack of staff at the beginning of the week they make large portions of their food, and then just re-warm it as necessary. It creates a very unpleasant mouth feel and it makes the food taste and smell weird.

When this place is good, 5 stars all the way, but that doesn’t really happen anymore. After 3 bad meals in a row, I don’t think I’ll be going back, which pains me to say.

Not at all like we remember, very disappointing. Order food to go and 3 of the 5 items were over cooked, dry and hard.
