    Get your fortune cookie on... I stumbled on to this restaurant as I was shopping in the Colonial Towne Park Center. It has a few tables and not very fancy. Most of their business is clearly take out, which is what I did. I ordered hunan beef and Kung poa chicken and shrimp fried rice. The hunan beef was lean very tasty. The Kung poa chicken was yummy and the shrip fried rice exceptional. The food was fresh, not greasy and excellent. Parking is a little challenging.. I would say that this is a keeper. Fortune cookie says, "You will have a pleasant surprise..."

    Two down one to go. We were looking for a good hot dog (FOUND! Hot Dog Heaven), a good pizza (quest continues with some "okays") and good Chinese. We had been going to Hop Sings but it changed owners. It's still okay. Tried Shanghai and like it better. Each dish has been very good, portions good, price decent and selection good. They are FAST, food's always hot. Several dishes have been very good and while a boring staple to some, finding good Egg Foo Young is a win! I echo the comments so far, particularly the parking which makes this a bit dicey if you're by yourself...best to have someone you can drop off and run in!

    First experience very good. Take out was excellent, fresh and fast! Note that online menu does not have chef's specials (e.g. General Tso's) so ask if you have a favorite. Restaurants seem to come and go in this center so I hope they make it.

    This place is a nice addition. I have been there 4 times since they opened and the food is consistently very good, delivered quickly, and at reasonable prices. The dumplings are quite good and the curry noodles are excellent. They have a few tables, but this is primarily a takeout establishment.

    Just finished my meal and had to come right in to review. I lived in NYC area my entire life and this is a great representation of it. All the ingredients were fresh and cooked perfectly. Plenty of natural food flavors coming through, food not greasy or filled with msg. I highly recommend giving it a try. Employees were friendly and food order piping hot when I got it home.

    I am quite happy to say that things are still great here from my perspective. All of the food I have ever ordered in about 10 trips here has been excellent. Shanghai has become a regular stop for my take-out Chinese slowly edging out the still very good Chop Stix in Lake Mary.

    I am per se not a fan of take out as I prefer to dine at restaurants where I can simply sit back and enjoy my meal. Especially since, I am perpetually in my kitchen whipping up the next masterpiece. After having an overwhelming hectic April I was feeling rather lazy and since my family adores South Eastern Cuisine, not to mention that Shanghai is practically in my back yard; we ordered some take out. Having absolutely no expectations (being disappointed way too many times with Chinese takeout in CFL); the food at Shanghai was a refreshing welcome. We ordered the typical dishes readily available in most takeout joints: Chicken Chow Mei Fun, Sesame Chicken, Kung Pao Chicken, Shredded Pork with Garlic Sauce, and Hot & Spicy Beef. Even though we stuck with the basics, they were non-greasy, light, and bursting with bold flavors. One could easily conclude that the dishes were made fresh to order. The spicy beef was 'spicy', tender slices of beef sautéed in a spicy dry sauce. The Kung Pao & Sesame Chicken were not much to speak about in flavors. They were simply average. The Pork on the other hand was very tender, bursting with garlicky flavors. Nicely done! The interesting fact to know before you order at Shanghai is that they have two menu prices, $5 for a small carry out box and one $9+ for the bigger portions. The $5 price is ideal to try new dishes without breaking the bank. Another advantage Shanghai restaurant holds is their location. It is conveniently located right opposite World of Beer. Now all of you that are privy to World of Beer, you are familiar with their policy to allow BYOF (bring your own food). So any particular day you are craving a beer, head on to Shanghai restaurant, grab a bite, and nurse a beer on the patio of World of Beers; it's the ideal marriage of beer and food. Bottom line is that it was perhaps the best takeout I have experienced in CFL. Whether you are in a hurry, being lazy, or just strolling around Colonial Town Park, give Shanghai Restaurant a chance. Like me, you will be pleasantly surprised too.

    Sorry, I had to log back in and downgrade this place one more star. The counter woman turned her back to the seating area and started reading the paper. Soon after, the owners started yelling at each other, and it was so uncomfortable I had to leave before I finished lunch (they didn't notice or care). Likely explains my original comments below. I realize people have problems - my issue is total lack of awareness, and not caring about customers. Food was as expected and good value. Would rate 3. Service was non existent, or worse. Lady threw my food on the table and walked away. Thanked her throughout ordering and service: not a word in response. Stick with take out here. *edit - or just avoid it.

    This place is awesome. I heard about it from work and they said that they were good. I had gone to try their Orange Chicken, it was great!

    Not a good experience today... cashier lady was really unfriendly and my takeout sweet and sour shrimp was doughy inside the batter. Sauce was delicious though.

    The wonton soup was almost flavorless. The curry shrimp was also surprisingly bland. I had hoped to find a new local spot for Chinese food, I regret that this isn't going to make my list. It is 7 pm on Friday night and there are very few customers, not a good sign.

    The food is very tasty and very cheap you can get pretty much a meal for two for five bucks I have to say though I always feel sluggish after eating here it must be the MSG.

    Food was not bad but found a dead bug in the food that my kid was eating. Would never return to the place. When informed the lady taking orders, reaction was very cold and was offered a prompt refund. If the place can't maintain clean standards, not a place I would visit again !!!!

    Poor service, average food, found a fly in the soup. There are several better Chinese restaurants in the area.

    Tonight we tried this place tonight for the first time and we weren't pleasantly surprised. We had the hot and sour soup which was alright I love the mushrooms that they put in it here in Florida but is difficult to mess up. My wife had the lemon chicken to which she has tried at no less than forty different Chinese restaurants and was disappointed, the chicken was "adequate" and the lemon sauce was "horrible". I had the house lo mien and thought it was ok, no complaints. For a quick bite that isn't so expensive it's not horrible.

    Take out joint with fresh and flavor- it's early but so far so good. Let's see if they can be consistent. Chicken and broccoli - a staple and you must be able to make a good dish - results were outstanding with flavorful brown sauce - well done! The chicken with string beans - outstanding! Dumplings - fresh, made in house and totally rocked. Great dumplings sauce. The white rice was fresh, light, with a little sticky which is perfect. Not a big fan of the fried rice - it was more like bad Spanish rice. So far, the best Chinese take out food I've had in Florida - and I'm used to NYC and NJ Chinese food which is the best in the US.

    Pretty good take-out food. Everything I've tried has been tasty and better than expected. I appreciate that it's lacking the super oily after-taste of many other fast food Chinese places. The only downsides: 1) Parking 2) A bit pricier than other similar places Aside from that, it really is some of the best Chinese take-out I've had in the Orlando area.

Chinese Cuisine

The popularity of Chinese food in America can be adjudicated by the appearance of China Town in many major cities in the United State of America. The popular trend of ordering or opting for Chinese take away food isn't unknown in America. Chinese take away food comes to rescue when you're too tired from work or too exhausted to cook. No one can resist the temptation of eating spicy noodles, shrimp, chicken, beef or pork cooked in the sweet and spicy sauce. The cooking method of authentic Chinese food is a lot different compared to what is served in America.

Generally, Chinese use dark meat small bones and organs to cook dishes but this changes when you are eating American-Chinese fusion food prepared using white boneless meat cooked with broccoli, carrots and onions. Back in China, the food is less spicy and oily as they favor steaming and braising method for cooking the most popular dishes. So, if you have a taste for authentic Chinese food, then try finding a real Chinese restaurant in the city. You can also try the most popular fusion Chinese food like Pecking Duck, Chicken Feet, Hot Pot, Shrimp Dumpling Soup, Mapo Tofu, Wontons, Chop Suey, Egg Rolls and not to forget Fortune Cookies.

There are not many restaurants in America serving authentic Chinese food. A little research on Restaurant Listings directory can help you locate the best Chinese restaurants in the city. Chinese cuisine is continuously evolving, and you can find a variety of dishes categorized as the food for lactose intolerant, gluten intolerant, vegan, vegetarian, and diabetic friendly. So, if you have a group of friends with different taste patterns, save the hassle and visit the nearest Chinese restaurant in your city.
