If you know me, you know that Chinese take-out is one of my go-to comfort foods. This particular place is right around the corner and the temptation proved too great one night when we were too tired to cook.
The egg drop soup was good. Not too gelatinous and nice amount of egg. Savory flavor.
The Mongolian Beef was spicy! Surprise! YES! Extremely tender beef strips, soft cooked onions & peppers, and a different (to us) brownish fried rice that was tasty.
The chicken Lo Mein was very generous with the chicken and veggies, and was just warm and comforting.
The vegetable egg roll (no meat) was delicious. My husband says he thinks it might be one of the best he's had. All the veggies inside were so crisp and fresh.
The spring rolls were good. Nice veggie mix.
All in all, a good experience. Definitely will order again, looking forward to trying more. -

I have no idea how this place got any 5 star reviews. It's it absolutely disgusting. I dined in and ordered chicken fried rice and sweet and sour chicken and that was enough for me to never go back. The sweet and sour chicken was completely flavorless and the chicken looked and tasted old. The chicken fried rice was flavorless as well and dark and tasted like it was reheated. The chicken inside the rice was gross.
That's not all. I went to use their restroom and there is only one restroom where you can't close the door to! There's a urinal in there and anybody can walk in on someone peeing! Even though the stall in there closed, I was so afraid someone was going to walk in and use the urinal right next me!! So weird and very uncomfortable that you can't close the door. When I went to wash my hands in the sink it was covered in black, thick calcium deposits. If they can't keep the restroom cleaned it makes me think they definitely don't keep their kitchen cleaned.
I never write reviews, but I feel like people need to be warned before someone gets sick. -

Called in General Taos chicken with Lomé in noodles, mushy pork, fried rice and egg roll. Was told 20 minutes but I got there earlier. Paid for order and had to wait about 5 minutes more. The order was worth the wait. This place is nostalgic me because my mother loved it and so do I. The staff verifies the call by phone number when you pay and when they deliver. The meal portions are large so I will about 3 more meals off of this.

I hadn't been here in years, told my husband and daughter that it was great. To my surprise the food was not as I remembered. It looked old, smelled old, tasted flavorless and old.
I wont be going back and my family wont take my suggestions anymore! Thanks Shanghai..not -

Been a couple of times its not bad. Last visit i ordered kung pao chicken asked for it hot. Took my food to work. To m6 surprise it should have been kung pao veggies. The flavkr was nice no heat and hardly any chicken. I know had a few tiny pieces but very few. Few bites had chicken the rest all veggies. May give em another shot will definitely look at my box before leaving
