Shanghai is great and we will be back soon. Service was amazing. We had our 4 and 5 year old with us and the food was delicious so they were happy. Quite affordable for the quality of food. Oh, and get the hot and sour soup over egg drop...soooo good!!!

The food is very tasty. I had the Governor's chicken. I don't understand some of the bad reviews. I didn't feel that way about this place. Sometimes I wonder if the bad reviews are from competitors . I don't always believe the bad reviews.

The only thing better than the pho, crab Rangoon, and shrimp toast is the service! I will 100% drive the 90 miles away that I am to eat here again

All of the dishes look very nice, good customer service. I tried some Vietnamese foods, they do not taste like Vietnamese flavor but they are delicious by their way.
