Customer Reviews
Very delicious menu dishes. I recommend trying all the Currys, fried egg rolls, the lemongrass dish! The sesame chicken was really good as well, but the curry dishes are amazing. Haven't had a chance to try the noodle soup there yet. Definitely worth giving this place a try.
Shanghai Cafe has an excellent staff. They are friendly and willing to take the time to explain their dishes to you. Our party ordered the Mongolian beef, sesame chicken, sweet and sour chicken combination plate (with ham fried rice and a Vietnamese egg roll), egg drop soup, along with cream cheese wontons and the tempura vegetable platter. Our food was served to us quickly and every item was hot and delicious. The portions are large. Plan on taking a lot of food home, which makes this restaurant very well worth the money! Our waiter was quick to take away dishes that were no longer needed and to refill our water. He was attentive and made us feel appreciated. I’ve been coming here for years and it seems that the food just keeps getting better. Shanghai Cafe is one of my favorite places to go to in the city. I highly recommend.
This place is so cute! First time eating here tonight as take out and it was a really great experience. The front desk service was very polite. They offered me a beverage as I waited. The owner was also very sweet. The food was also amazing!! I’m so excited there is a vegan/vegetarian friendly restaurant in town. Portions are great and not overpriced. See photo. I ordered the vegetarian hot and sour soups. Vegetarian beef moo goo, orange veggie chicken and Chinese flat noodles with tofu (just to try a bit of everything) and it didn’t disappoint. Definitely coming back as a regular!
Not very impressed by the food here. It got great reviews and I even talked to a lady picking up a to-go order who said it was her favorite Chinese restaurant, so I had high expectations, however, they fell very short. I ordered the vegetarian egg rolls and they were so burnt and hard that they were hardly edible and lacked flavor - all you could taste was the extremely crispy wrapper that had the texture of chewy burnt cardboard. I also got the Szechuan chicken and it had a very odd, sweet flavor to it, which was unlike Szechuan I've had anywhere else. I didn't care for either, but the worker assisting me at the counter was extremely polite and friendly and the portion sizes were large.
Food is good. I wish their menu would include a better description. The Orange Chicken item does not state that they put BROCCOLI in it, and I HATE broccoli. I usually remember to request no broccoli but have forgotten and have had to chuck it in the trash when broccoli is included.
