“ Always good always good service and so nice I wish the dining experience was better maybe some music and idk why it's always so dead ”
“ Never a wait, today a very nice guy greeted us and our five year old, food is always good and prices are reasonable. ”
“ so yummy! the people working are so nice and brought my food out relatively quickly. i had the egg pho something, don't remember what it was but literally so delicious! and the vegetarian pot stickers/dumplings were to die for. something that i really love about this place is that the tofu doesn't taste bland, which is something a lot of places struggle with. the broth was really yummy, too! if you're not vegetarian but have vegetarian family members this is a good place to go because there's an equal amount of vegetarian and non vegetarian options! the walls were also beautifully decorated, and their placemats gave descriptions of the chinese zodiac (how cool)! 10/10 would give more stars if possible lol! ”
“ We love Shanghai Cafe! There are so many options for vegetarians. They are consistently good. We don't go eat out often, but when we do, Shanghai is always one of the options we consider. The bathrooms are always clean, the service is always fast. ”
“ We went here on a suggestion from a friend. We wanted vegetarian food and this place did the trick. There were almost too many veggie options. Many in our group ate meat and they had tone of options too. The food is an Asian mix. We all loved the food. Great taste and quality. The dishes are really large so either share or be prepared to bring home. The bathrooms could use a coat of paint and a scrub down, but the rest of the restaurant was fine. ”
“ STEPH JUDGEMENT: Good food and service in a spacious setting. We happened to spot this place driving by and saw the big sign proclaiming vegetarian options and were intrigued. We stopped in for an early weeknight dinner and had plenty of tables to choose from. After settling in, we ordered the Vegetarian wonton noodle soup and a Vietnamese curry, which I don't think we've ever seen offered anywhere before. We enjoyed both dishes; the veggies were fresh in the noodle soup and noodles not overcooked. I hate mushy noodles. The Vietnamese curry was interesting: while the flavor was good, if a little sweet for my taste, it was also a little on the soupy side, which I also didn't really care for. The hubby liked it better than I did. Portions were generous and we had some curry leftovers that were good heated up the next day. Service was efficient and prompt, and overall it was a pleasant visit. I wouldn't mind going back to try other items the next time we're in the area. ”
“ I have been coming here for years and this place is always a crowd pleaser! We drove from the east coast and knew we would have our first meal back at Shanghi. We had the tofu lettuce wraps, the curry with potatoes, broccoli and carrots and the kung pao veggies. What a taste sensation! ”
