    Shanghai Garden is the kind of restaurant that makes you feel relaxed and happy from the moment you walk in. The space is spotless, the decor warm and inviting, and the overall atmosphere cozy and comfortable—perfect for settling in and enjoying a great meal. The staff are wonderful, too. The hostess and waitresses were genuinely friendly and attentive, adding to the welcoming vibe that makes dining here such a pleasure. The cocktails were another highlight—beautifully presented and incredibly well mixed, with just the right balance of flavors. As for the food, everything we tried was fantastic. The Hunan chicken with five spice was packed with bold, delicious flavor, while the rice cakes dinner was a real standout—perfectly chewy and bathed in a savory, well-seasoned sauce that tied the dish together beautifully. Every detail, from the service to the food to the ambiance, feels thoughtfully done. We’ll definitely be back again and again.

    Finally! Great Chinese food! This place reminds me of places on the East coast. Freshness and delicious. Awesome egg rolls. Orange beef and mu shu pork were amazing. GO! Go now!

    I got the impression we weren’t welcome due to my infant daughter being with us during the dinner rush. An older woman essentially removed the host to tell us the wait was too long…

    Wow! They need to pat themselves on the back because everything was absolutely delicious. My wife and I are so glad we found this place. It’s hard to find good Chinese food nowadays, but this spot did not disappoint. The service was excellent and truly top notch. I wish I had taken pictures because the presentation was beautiful. We ordered the General Tso’s chicken, orange chicken, egg rolls, cheese wontons, and BBQ pork bao. Everything was great. I didn’t care for the bao much, but those egg rolls were amazing. So fresh, crispy, and full of flavor. The business hours were a little different than we expected. I wish they stayed open longer. I also loved the cute Chinese to-go boxes. They reminded me of back home. Highly recommend this place. We’ll definitely be back!
