Shanghai offers specialty dishes such as steamed whole fish, stir-fried lean lamb, varied selections of vegetables, and many tofu dishes. The diverse menu preparations are complemented by freshly made egg rolls, vegetable dumplings, and the best hot appetizers. Of course, your instructions are always most willingly accommodated. There are separate menus for lunch and dinner, as well as weekly lunch and dinner specials that introduce patrons to less common specialties, such as Spicy Singapore Lo Mein, Chow Fun, Szechuan Lamb, Fresh Tofu with Bok Choy, and Cantonese Flounder Filet.

overpriced and worst service
by csb8
Whenever i have gotten take out pieces have been missing from the order (including whole dishes). Table service takes forever and most importantly they do not deliver most of the time, even if . When they do deliver they consitently change the delivery range, sometimes delivering to places others not to the same address, getting lost 9 out of 10 times and taking over an hour on average.
I will not spend another dollar there but instead drive an additional ten miles (as opposed to three) to get decent chinese take out. This barely qualifies as passable.
- Pros: passable take out
- Cons: disaterous customer service.
nice place, good customer service, food definitely lacking

I looked this place up before we went, and their website, menu, and atmosphere are nice, but the food is exactly what you would expect from some hole-in-the-wall general "chinese" restaurant. I had the lamb in garlic sauce, but I never would have guessed thats what it was if I didn't order it myself, since it tasted just like the beef that my friend ordered. It was also supposed to be a spicy dish, but there seemed to be no spice whatsoever.
Flavors were bland and thrown together in that overly saucy, cheap american/chinese food kind of way, the egg and shanghai rolls were pretty tastless. The soup was alright though, and our waiter and the owners at the door were really nice.
Would not recommend if you are looking for something more authentic and flavorful. Look up Champas in Raleigh (even though its Thai and not Chinese), it's definitely better.
- Pros: Nice atmosphere, good service
- Cons: Food was disappointing
