As a Chinese Restaurant, Shanghai Taste is described by some patrons as a quaint and charming "mom and pop" local spot that offers flavorful food. One reviewer highly recommends the General Tso's chicken, combination fried rice, and steamed vegetable dumplings, describing the dumplings as amazing.

The service at Shanghai Taste is noted to be quick and friendly. A unique feature mentioned is that almost everything is served in to-go containers, which offers convenience for taking leftovers home.

However, another recent customer had a less positive experience, stating that the chicken in both their dishes tasted old and reheated.

A quaint mom and pop local spot that's charming as it is flavorful! I order the general tso chicken, very very good, the combination fried rice and the steamed vegetable dumplings which are amazing! Definitely recommended!

Service is quick and friendly. Unfortunately the food was not it for us. The chicken in both plates tasted really old (like it was reheated and tossed in). We did like the pork fried dumplings the best. Almost everything is served in to go containers so you can easily pack your leftovers and take them home which is nice. Could’ve been just an off day when we visited since a lot of reviewers seem to enjoy it.

Excellent no-frills place. We had the Mongolian beef and shrimp with vegetables. On weekends they also have fantastic pan-fried soup dumplings. Really kind, attentive and friendly servers.

I mean the food is good, but I’m just not super impressed by the food. Overall, the service was good. We had a metal strip found in the lamb dish that we ordered!!! Thankfully, we didn’t feed that dish to our baby. They were nice to remake one for us. However, we probably will not come back.

Absolutely lovely place for Soup Dumplings and whatever else they make! The soup dumplings were juicy, fresh, and tasted exactly right. Very tasty, well priced, no frills place that reminds me of childhood! 10/10 would recommend!
