Shang Hai River

Me and my family have been going here for well over 15 years and had been our absolute favorite chinese restaurant untill today. We haven’t ate here in a good 4 months and went for dinner on a saturday night, big mistake. The girl serving us messed up every SINGLE order that sat down with wrong food orders, overcharged on our bill and didn’t know how to be a server at all. There were 5 other families and they all had the same issues too including a door-dasher on the way out. Food came out MINUTES apart and not to mention the quality of the food has gone down so much and the sesame chicken was overcooked. The robot could have done a better job. Probably will not go back again.

Hands down some of the best Chinese food I've ever eaten.

I just had vegetables with rice and some egg rolls but it was really good! The egg rolls were delicious too ! I definitely will come back and try something different. Service was good too!

Their new upgrade is so nice. It was much needed. The food is always spot on.

The food was great

What a Golden Gem and we plan to return!!!!!

Big fan of this hidden gem... Food is always fresh tasting... Soups are fantastic

Gave my nephew a boat for free 🔥

One of the best Chinese restaurants in the area. The food was cooked perfectly. The employees were extremely friendly and polite. I would drive 45 minutes just to get food from here again!!!

I have only gone for takeout, but they have the best Chinese food that I’ve ever had.

UPDATE 2025: New & Much Larger Restaurant Now! They've got room for those who love to eat in & enjoy savoring their delish food made fresh from the kitchen. Make sure you get some of those steamed dumplings that come with a duck sauce & a spicy horseradish mustard sauce that is so, so good. They have a wonderful oolong tea & I love that as well.
By far, the best fried rice in the county! Every dish I’ve had has been delicious. From Walnut Chicken, Chicken Egg Foo Young to Mu Shu Pork & Pepper Steak it’s all amazing.!!!!! This is our family favorite pick for over a decade now & we love it!
5 Star Restaurant ***** --- A Gem In Boardman

best chinese food in boardman!! must try!

It’s hard to find great Chinese food outside of the nyc area but this place is definitely one of the exceptions. The sweet and sour chicken and general tso were great tasting. It was a little busy but worth the wait. We don’t live in Ohio but whenever we are in the area visiting family, this will definitely be our go to Chinese spot.

Mostly a take out place but there is a dining area. Very courteous server. We ate there. Spring rolls were nice and crispy. Crab Rangoon delicious. Orange chicken was perfect. Hunan chicken spiced just right. Fried rice was excellent. We Recommend it!

Our favorite place in Boardman for Chinese. They have good tofu dishes. Always quick and, if not friendly, at least not rude or ignoring you at the counter!
