Opiniones de Shang Hai Restaurant Orlando
Best take out on this side of john young, small place but the best food always comes from small places! Everyone who works here is so kind and so friendly, can’t beat this kind of service! So thankful Shang Hai is so close to me, thank you Shang hai!
I am very picky about my food, and this place has the best food! Every time I order something or I go, the food is extremely fresh! I never have to worry about anything! I have tried many different restaurants! I am so thankful I found this restaurant because I no longer have to search for quality food! They deserve beyond a five star review!!? Exceptional quality and excellent customer service! 💗🫶🏽
I absolutely love this restaurant they are always friendly and smiling and the food is very tasteful i dont care how far i live i will come from anywhere to eat it
The food is delicious and affordable, and the owners are lovely. Very nice people, and the food is always made in under ten minutes, sometimes under five. I usually peak inside the kitchen when I’m picking up an order and it always looks pretty clean in there. I’ve been eating here regularly for a few months but I believe they’ve been in this neighborhood for years. I’ll keep eating here as long as they’re around.
My favorite place to eat at. They treat me so nice and she always has my food ready for me. Super friendly.
Excellent food and fast. Much better than the place next store.
The food is amazing, the price is affordable . The place is very clean and the service is excellent!
Been coming here since 2014 the best Chinese food in Orlando they are literally like family
We own an Airbnb near this restaurant, and every time we visit for inspections, we make it a priority to order from Shanghai. Though the establishment is small, the service is exceptional. The staff, particularly the guy at the front, is always welcoming and accommodating. Most importantly, the food is consistently outstanding—we have yet to experience anything less than excellence. A sign on the glass before entering proudly proclaims, "Best Chinese food in Florida," and it truly lives up to the claim. I highly recommend this restaurant.
Amazing customer service they actually know my family’s order by heart 🤣🥰
When I called the lady wanted to get off the phone and just kept saying come in, so my family said find a different place she was rude. I read the reviews and looked at the pictures, the food looked good and decent reviews so I still went. I was on vacation by seaworld and drove here, I ended up spending over $100 and the food was excellent. After the lady realized I was placing a nice size order she was super super nice and inviting. I definitely would recommend, everything was good rice, chicken wings, rice noodles, crab Rangoon, general Tao’s chicken and egg rolls
The woman at the counter was really nice and the food hits when I come here. Goto spot.
I’m from New York and New Jersey and this is by far the best Chinese restaurant that I can compare to home!!!! The food is always fresh and on time with great prices
Hot and Sour soup made fresh!!! I will always go out of the way to order here, see you everytime we come to Orlando!!!
I order sesame chicken and boneless ribs, everything was delicious. The amount of food served is amazing.
Ordered from here after hearing all the positive reviews. Food was excellent. Nicely seasoned and delicious. Small place with only a couple of tables so more suitable for takeout. Would not hesitate to go again.
Ordered for the first time today and I’m a very picky eater. Really, really enjoyed this meal! The sauce was thick and tasty and there was plenty of it. The meat quality was excellent. It was hot and fresh when I received it. Great food! Highly recommend!
Sea food delight is sooo delicious I get it like twice a week.
Joey is awesome here, the quality of the food is for sure great and the service and attention to detail is great I truly recommend!
Food was hot very tasty and fast service. Friendly and clean.
I've been a loyal Customer for over 25+ years!! I refuse to eat at any other Chinese Food Restaurant. The food is always Delicious, Fresh and NEVER once have I had any problems. I drive about 30 mins to get Chinese Food from this place, the Best in Orlando!!!
Zoe and her family are the BEST at what they do and the most definitely can throw it down in the kitchen! 😋 They cook very tasty, delicious food and always remember my family's order to PER-FEC-TION!!! The food is always correct, exceptional, and EXTRA WELL DONE the way we like it!!! They as an establishment are Top-Tier and provide the best service in my eyes, especially when you're particular and find a place that will willingly cook your food the way YOU want as the customer!!! They have us as a loyal customer and if I could I would give 10x the 5 stars I already gave! Thank You Zoe, you're the best! Point blank and simple!!!!!! 😁👌
They always treat you like family, the food is great and overall the best in the area! Thank you for my keychain and for the amazing food🤍
I’ve been going here since I was a teenager and food has not changed once I always order a pt of shrimp or pork fried rice with only onions and sometimes chicken wings. The service is always excellent. Today They gave me a cool keychain never seem to disappoint me

Finally, I found New york style Chinese, and they have the bbq sauce. I still have to try the ribs. Nonetheless, the sauce is there. They have lunch specials Monday-Sunday till 3 pm, just like NY. There is a worker there, not sure if she is an owner or not. She told me they are from Canal St. in Manhattan. I highly recommend giving them a try. It's very well worth it. Bonus they offer fried green plantains.
I’ve been there 3 times this week already and gonna go back today. I absolutely love the egg drop wonton soup. It’s always ready and hot when I arrive after calling my order in. Definitely recommend to anyone in the area if you’re wondering about GREAT Chinese. Mami at the front is awesome. That’s my new friend. :)
Still the same owner! Thank God! I have been coming here for at least 5-6 years, so I don't understand why all the reviews are gone. Their food is delicious. I only get the curry shrimp, but everyone I know goes for the shrimp fried rice. The owner's are some of the nicest people you'll ever met. Joey is the sweetest and I love her. She always greets me with a big smile and "Hello honey!" They make me feel like family. If cleanliness is important to you just know that this place is spotless. My favorite take-out by far! The prices are also very reasonable for the portions that are given. One large is two meals for me. See you soon!
I have fond memories of growing up enjoying meals from this Chinese restaurant, which is widely regarded as the best Chinese food in Orlando. The entire town knows it! Their fried chicken wings, in particular, are seasoned and cooked to absolute perfection—just take a look at my picture! The food is consistently well-prepared, the prices are fair, and the service is always exceptional. Every time I visit home, stopping here for chicken is a must on my list.
It is the best Chinese food I have tasted in Florida, I loved the special rice of the house, the meat with broccoli and the spring rolls, recommended, it is a place to buy and take away.
This is the best tasting Chinese food I have had since NY. But they are better than the NY Chinese food in their dumplings. They have absolutely the best dumplings and their chicken is just like the NY chicken wings ❤️❤️❤️.
Very tasty! I had chicken broccoli 🥦 Good flavors. Lots of chicken. Fresh broccoli with nice tasty sauce. Spring rolls are .excellent. Wanton soup was really good.
Hands down the best Chinese restaurant in Orlando!! Always fresh, hot with great portions!! Go out of your way to stop by, you will not be disappointed!! 😋 #besteggrolls

Their general tso chicken dinner is delicious, and a great value. The staff are friendly, and the food is ready quickly! I go all the time for quick food pickups
No pictures for this review but you’ve got to believe me when I say this was a great find while I visited Orlando. Shang Hai Restaurant was great. I ordered spring rolls, a shrimp roll, shrimp with mixed vegetables and sesame chicken. My food was delicious, hot and flavorful. My order was fresh and ready when I arrived. The customer service was great as well. I would recommend you try anything on the menu.
Their Popo platter is the best. It’s really amazing. I always come here when I crave Chinese. Anything on the menu is really good. It’s the best Chinese place in this area.
Has great food and a lot of options from their menu. I don’t wait a long time to get my food so great service there. I’ve bought food from this place since 2016!! I haven’t had any issues from this place. The best chinese take out food you can get from here!!!
This spot reminds me of New York ! Super fast, super good and they are really nice people!

I don't eat out much. Today I had desired a take-out meal and had a little bit of extra money for it. I wanted bourbon chicken and fried rice. It's a real treat. I also was interested in trying their steak egg roll. I got the bourbon chicken combo, and paid $2 extra to sub the regular eggroll with a steak eggroll. I pay for my meal and run over to the Publix for some drinks. I come back, and my food is ready. I take it home, happy as can be. I open my bag and notice there aren't any sauces, fortune cookie, napkins, or even plasticware to eat with. I take a bite of the bourbon chicken, and it was not sweet like I was expecting. It had a weird, saltiness to it that I wasn't prepared for, nor enjoyed. The fried rice was pretty great, but no sauces for it. The steak eggroll turned out to be a regular eggroll too. I am very disappointed in my first experience at this restaurant. I am not able to eat out often so I was really hoping this would be what I expected. Since the fried rice was so good, I am willing to give it another chance. I won't be trying the bourbon chicken again. Probably the sweet and sour chicken.

Update: Company refunded my money! I need a refund! I bought sweet and sour pork with fried rice and I was served dried dough balls with tiny pieces of pork in it! I know my Chinese food and this is definitely not what sweet and sour pork looks or tastes like. They shouldn't be serving this to people. I got home and had to separate the dough from the pork because if I wanted dough in my order🙄🙄🙄, I would have stopped at Dunkin instead.

Man, I hate doing negative reviews, but this isn’t right. I think today will be my last time coming to this restaurant. so I’m sitting in the lobby waiting for my food and a gentleman in the kitchen decides to (Spit) on a trashcan and I literally like saw him in like i’m still standing here, that is not something you do in the kitchen I mean, go to the bathroom or go out back and spit outside or something, but you don’t do that 👎 🤮

Beef with chinese vegetables is good, Lo Mein is ok but boneless spares plate is horrible.
My spouse and I decided to give this place a try this evening because our usual Chinese food place is closed on Mondays. The first thing we noted was the minimal and same amount of fried noodles served, even though one of us ordered a small Egg Drop and the other, a large Mix Wonton Egg Drop. The soup was passable, but the fried noodles were so stale, they were almost buoyant. We had higher hopes for our main course, a large Beef and Broccoli. We were incredibly disappointed upon tasting the over-salted sauce and oddly textured meat. After chewing relentlessly, I gave up and swallowed a piece almost whole. The entire meal tasted as though everything had been made last week and reheated. We quickly assessed that we had spent over $22 on something that neither of us could bear to eat. My spouse is one of the least picky people I know, so that is saying A LOT.
Very greasy and general tso’s chicken was all breading. Would not recommend for your classic Chinese take out joint.
Never give me enough soy sauce anytime I uber eats
DOESN’T EVEN DESERVE ONE STAR!! The rice was raw and grainy, as well as bitter and moldy. There are no words to describe the chicken because of how bad it is. As a person who loves Chinese food, I’ve never bern to a place this bad.
Go to the Chinese restaurant across the street instead!! I got the beef and broccoli lunch special here was not happy the meat was so chewy and weird looks good but was not I just ate the broccoli and rice also food just taste bland. My boyfriend ordered boneless spare ribs very bland as well definitely had better that’s forsure!
I ordered orange chicken, they make people believe they're getting chicken but it's not, it's fried dough. If anything, they give you three pieces of chicken. It's a rip-off.
