When we were the only people in the restaurant at 6 p.m. on a Wednesday, I should have gotten the message.
I ordered the Pineapple Delight, and it was anything but. The shrimp tasted fishy and the chicken was sour; no matter what sauce I put on top, it was completely unpalatable, and I was finished after two forkfuls. My wife had the vegetable Lo mein which is one of her favorite Chinese dishes and she couldn't eat it, said it tasted weird. We left 2 full plates of food on the table and walked to the front and checked out, the waitress was no where to be found ( not like she was busy when we were literally the only customers in the place) I wasted $50 , could of bought bought myself a $5 frozen Smart Choice Pineapple Chicken dinner, It would of been tastier. The Chef needs to find a new job.
Love this place! Bring back lunch buffet!
Really wanted some sweet and sour chicken and this place hit the spot!! My sister and I split our meal because we got so much!! Great prices for the amount of food you get. Service was quick
My family’s go to Chinese restaurant! Great food and atmosphere.
For the second time I ordered delivery only to sit and wait …. And wait … and wait. Then when I called to check on my food I’m told “sorry we just saw your order and the chefs gone so you won’t vetting your family’s dinner tonight” how does a restaurant not see your order for 2 hours? No one checks? Utterly unacceptable. And like I said this has happened multiple times . I will NOT be ordering again.
Ordered teriyaki beef appetizer and was very disappointed. I get this from Chinese restaurants all the time and have never had fried meat taste so bad before. Sour and undercooked. Don’t order this if you expect teriyaki or if you like good food.
This is a cozy traditional style chinese restaurant. I love the menu options. Great place for a date night or take out.
My favorite is the Singapore Noodles. (I recommend it for those who like curry.) Second runner up is Pad Thai. #3 is Spicy Drunken Noodles.
Always good food!
The food was ok, but I was overcharged on the prices and I was supposed to get free egg rolls and fried 🌾 for spending over $70, but I was charged for them.
Waited three hours for takeout on Christmas Eve. Food was awful! I was super disappointed with the entire experience. Won’t go back!

the food wasnt that bad but there was no in there except for a guy at the bar(this was at like 7 pm on a friday) and not to mention there was BUGS IN THE SOY SAUCE. im not kidding you when i tell you my family and i found out there was a bunch of little dead bugs in the soy sauce bottle that was on our table. absolutely disgusting. we got up, obviously didnt pay for the bug-infested food, and left. never going back again.
This is my favorite spot for Chinese food. The food is great and they treat us like family. Love them!

Not great food. Fried Chicken was soggy, “crispy duck” mostly bones and was also soggy like heated in a microwave. Do not recommend

My family has gotten takeout from Shanghai for many years, and while the results have been a little variable for specific dishes, we've always very much enjoyed them, and Shanghai remains our go-to. Last night my wife and I were especially wowed by two of the 4 dishes we got: Chicken Pad Thai and Kung Pao Chicken. Both were incredibly bright and flavorful, probably the best we've ever had here or anywhere. Will definitely try those again soon to see if this is a consistent result! The other 2 dishes were also excellent: General Tao's Chicken had large, very gently breaded chunks of chicken breast and plenty of tangy sauce, while the Chicken Singapore Rice Noodles -- our first time trying this -- was slightly salty but loaded with chicken and egg, mild curry flavor, and those wonderful thin noodles. All portions were very generous and will provide leftovers for at least a couple more meals. We were so impressed with the entire order that we called the restaurant to let them know. The owner was appreciative and, as always, so pleasant. I asked the name of whoever prepared the food and she told me it was Mr. Xu, and that he is always the cook. I will remember that! I'm always happy to give this family-run restaurant our business, and today a 5-star review for particularly outstanding dishes.
