" I ordered takeout from Shanghai Inn last night, and I was genuinely impressed! Everything was beautifully packed and the presentation was great. The garlic chicken was flavorful, and the fried rice had the perfect texture. I could taste the freshness in every bite! I’ll definitely be returning soon to try other dishes on the menu. " (*Curated Review*)

" Just had another fantastic meal from Shanghai Inn! I tried their crab rangoon and sesame chicken this time, and they exceeded my expectations. The rangoon was perfectly crispy and not greasy at all, and the sesame chicken had a delightful crunch with all the right flavors. No complaints regarding service; they were timely and welcoming. I’ll be back again soon to try more dishes! " (*Curated Review*)

" I have to admit, I love this place! Their egg rolls are possibly the best I have ever had, crispy and bursting with flavor. I typically favor takeout, and Shanghai Inn does not disappoint in this area—the food arrives hot, and the portions are always more than adequate. It’s the perfect quick stop for a satisfying meal, and I look forward to many more visits! " (*Curated Review*)

" While the food here is generally good, my experience with delivery was less than satisfactory. The food arrived later than expected, and when it did, it was lukewarm. The Mongolian beef lacked the savory kick it usually has and felt somewhat greasy. However, I do still appreciate their portion sizes. I often enjoy dining in; the atmosphere is warm and welcoming. " (*Curated Review*)

" The first time I visited Shanghai Inn, I completely enjoyed my meal! The shrimp fried rice was delightful, and the portion sizes are generous. The atmosphere holds a nostalgic charm that adds to the experience. However, I did encounter a bit of inconsistency in the service, as it wasn’t as prompt during peak hours. That said, I will absolutely be coming back for those fantastic flavors! " (*Curated Review*)

" Last night, I had the displeasure of ordering from Shanghai Inn. Sadly, the experience fell short of my expectations. The Mongolian beef I received was primarily bell peppers, and the gravy tasted bland. The fried rice was decent, but I was hoping for more flavor. The service on the phone was professional, but the food didn’t meet my standards. I wouldn’t recommend this restaurant to someone looking for an authentic Chinese meal. " (*Curated Review*)

" Decided to try Shanghai Inn last week, I was met with a warm greeting from the staff, which was a nice touch. However, while the meal was tasty overall, it wasn't as authentic as I had hoped. My Mongolian beef was a bit too saucy for my liking and lacking in authentic spice. The portions were generous, and I appreciated the quick service. I might try a different dish next time. " (*Curated Review*)
