Hot and Fresh! NO MSG
I love their 10.99 summer special! That price can't be beat. 3 items + rice, 1 soda, 1 cookie. I can get 2 meals out of this special. Let's get a fall special New Shanghai!
The salt and pepper shrimp is very strange tasting, a spice I've never had before. They were soggy as well because they don't vent their containers. The ginger beef was tough and bland. The deep fried wontons were the only thing that was ok. Barely. We ended up eating mostly coconut rice which we made ourselves. Will never order again
There are plenty of Chinese restaurant in town and somehow this restaurant has the highest price of them for no justification. Almost $30 for a chicken wing appetizers? Clearly the restaurant owner smoked their own product as they do own the weed dispensary as well. Skip this as the higher priced food is not justified by the portion, quality, or taste. There are better Chinese restaurant in town with authentic taste that doesn't try and rob your wallet. Try Dumpling House on the West Side, Imperial China, Fusion on the South Side or Spring Roll on the North Side. Better value, better taste, better food.
This place is a rip off. Prices are up to 50 percent higher than what can be found in Calgary. Authenticity is a stretch too. Chinese for Caucasians. Maybe the prices are so high because they actually use chopsticks made of gold.
Our family loves the New Shanghai! Delicious food, large portions and amazing service. The best in town!! A special thanks to Tim, our usual delivery driver. He's like part of our family and takes the time to visit with our family and pets each time we see him. Thanks again for another amazing dinner.
We were looking for a new Chinese food restaurant that my wife wouldn’t get a migraine from (MSG Allergy). The food is very fresh, tasty and ready in 15! Thank you Eddie and team for making food well-worth the money. We will certainly be back!!
My favourite restaurant! Fresh, delicious and good price!
GARBAGE! Thought we'd try this restaurant since reviews are good. Wow who gives reviews or am I just a better cook? I made the garlic fried pork ribs and the Ginger beef. I usually do the lemon chicken too,since NO restaurant makes it good. So, we decided to order the special fried rice which didn't have any taste. Fried wontons-the meat was like jerky and the wrapping very greasy. And salt and pepper shrimp-coating mostly off and another tasteless dish. Glad I made the best Ginger beef and garlic ribs in town! So, the one picture shows what we ate and the rest went in the garbage.
Not good at all
ordered take out from a flyer we had delivered to our house. Very good for the price!!
I found a long hair in my pineapple chicken as well as a short one. I had already left the city.
Great food. Warm when arrived. Delivery driver gave our dog a treat. Would recommend.
Our favorite Chinese in Lethbridge !! Hot and fresh!
The owner is a complete tool.
My first time ordering from here. Our order was ready in a timely manner and the food was tasty and warm. Food
Ordered ginger chicken. For 20.00 received a small container of tough, stringy breaded meat. I have never known chicken to be that stringy and hard to chew!??!! The cabbage in the chow mein was mushy and overcooked. An expensive, mediocre dinner. Would not recommend this restaurant and will not order from here again.
Great food Great service everytime we go here
Best Chinese food in Western Canada !!! Ordered a good supper for four.
Our chicken chow mein had about 2 pieces of chicken, and 10 noodles. It was 90% cabbage. Chicken was also over cooked. I was not impressed.
Love the food great place to eat take out its Asome
Service was good. But the dish I ordered didnt taste like Asian cuisine at all. Tasted like stew and too salty
Great food every time we go there. Its worth driving in from coalhurst. Food always hot and fresh.
The best Chinese food in Lethbridge. The staff are sooooo friendly too. Definitely worth the money! You will enjoy it.
Simply put Garbage, if there was a 0 rating, this place certainly deserves that, nothing more
Absolutely horrible. If I could rate negative stars they would get a 5!!! Each dish was tasteless and soggy. Even the cabbage in the chow mein was soggy, the chicken balls and egg rolls had such a strange taste they went in the garbage because we couldnt be sure they were actually not spoiled!! Found 2 small pieces of hard clear plastic in the rice as we were eating it. Would not recommend this place and this food to my worst enemy!!!! Absolutely horrible...... dont waste your money!
the food was not to bad but ... the Dry Garlic Ribs did not taste like they had any garlic on them and the Shanghai Noodle with Beef and Broccoli was supposed to be hot and spicy but it was NOT hot at all :(
This is the best Chinese food place in Lethbridge. Dont go anywhere else! The service is amazing and the food is delicious.
Everything tasted like old deep fry oil. Would never order again! We will go back to our usual - modern Chinese. Waste of $125
Ordered Beef Chow Mein off of DoorDash. Not what one might expect for $20 (25 after delivery fees, etc.). Literally just Cabbage, Beef, and a disappointing amount of noodles (weirdly shaped too, probably just a preference). Other places offer more for the price point and there was certainly nothing special about the flavour or the pound of unseasoned rice that was thrown in with the order for some reason. Will probably be looking for a different Chinese place in town.
We have always got great food, and terrific service!
Everything was excellent. GREAT FOOD !!!!! Vegetarian options: Great selection of veggies. Food : 5/5 |
Ordered the dinner for 3 , the chowmein that came with the meal was horrid . I ve ordered chowmein for years . It s one of my favourite dishes , although what I got from here was not chowmein. It was mushy flavourless cabbage with a few noodles and looked like left over chicken scraps ( looked like cat food ) . First and last time I will order from here . If you re looking for chowmein this is not the place to get it I suggest they update the menu to WARN customers of what their idea of chowmein is . I think these are the only people who don t know how to make their own national foods lol. The little white girl taking orders is completely simple it s kinda sad ( stay in school girl ) I called to see if there s anything that can be done same girl said we can make the Cantonese chowmein but you ll have to pay the DIFFERENCE. My husband picked it up and was made to pay full price . I warn you , do not waste your time nor your money here . Hospital food is better than this garbage they call food . It s bland , they can t cook , then don t HONOR options being offered. This place should be shut down .
Horrible we had chicken fried rice and all we got was just dry rice with almost no chicken
Our favourite Chinese take out restaurant.
bland and expensive compared to other establishments
Great experience and fantastic food.
great short ribs Generally a solid option for takeout and delivery. Some items on the menu are unspectacular but the short ribs are standouts, and about half of what Ive tried here was very good.
Best chinese food in Lethbridge. Great portions. My definite go to!
March 14 2021 My order was put in at 4: 27pm This was with out doubt the worst Chinese food my wife and I have ever had. After tasting the items we ordered, it all went into the garbage. My dog would not eat swill like this. The people who own this establishment have no idea what cooking is. I can only worn people to go elsewhere. On the back of the menu, it states they were voted Lethbridges best of the best in 2021. This must have been put there by the owner. If I could give 0 stars I would
Amazing food super quick. Easy to order. The delivery guy was very friendly! Definitely our favorite place to order from! They really give us a reason to continue to order. Just call them!
This was my first and last time ordering from this place. First off I looked up there menu online and apparently they have not updated the prices. I called to place my order and was told a combo 3 for 1 person was now 16.45 and was not told that there was also now a 6 dollar delivery charge plus 1.75 for using debit. The delivery driver was rude and would not even look at me when dropping off my food. I had pineapple chicken (so greasy, no flavour, and the chicken inside was rock hard and had skin), fried rice( tasted old and no flavour) , and finally chow mein (very soggy, slimy, and no flavour) . It also came with some brown sauce that was supposedly sweet and sour it was gross. I tried to call and complain but they apparently don t take complaints. What a waste of 26 dollars. I will definitely not be ordering again.
Wasnt that good...
Best food best price
I initially thought I was ordering from the Shanghai opposite Galt Gardens. The two used be run by the same owner and then they split. The quality of the food at this Shanghai is slightly less than at the Galt Gardens one but the recipes are very similar, and you get larger portions, so where the quality is only slightly less, they make up for it in quantity. I would go here again over the Galt Gardens one.
Absolutely Outstanding! Best in Lethbridge for sure. Great people and fair price.
The special almond chicken never disappoints!
Bland and underwhelming in general. Even the sweet and sour sauce tasted weak. Then ginger beef was most unfortunate. Did they run out of ginger (and MSG)?
We enjoyed our meal so much. The order was perfect thanks to the lady on the phone and the delivery guy is always awesome. Great service all around!
Normally you food is amazing and decent delivery times as well. But now i cant order because when i call i get a message saying the number is disconnected...
Very fast and friendly service. The food is very good. Always arrives hot and you get a decent amount of food. So glad to see them open again. .
ordered wor wonton. the broth and vegetables are delicious but the wontons are bland and flavorless. the hot and sour soup tastes like ketchup with sugar. the chicken fried rice is disguisting the first bite I took it literally tasted like crystal meth. I have no idea how they managed to give it that flavour.
Fast , good food I would eat here again .
Special fried rice!!
Honestly this was a horrible excuse for Chinese food spent about hundred dollars on what was reviewed as a 4 star restaurant, everything tasted sub par except the breaded chicken which was just ok at best, the sauce drippings seemed to have some old grease dripping taste or maybe it was just spoiled. Definitely avoid the place if possible
Dont listen to any of the other reviews as they were probably only made by close contacts or faked, these guys tried to pass off flavorless wonton soup, dumplings and fried rice as Chinese food. Some of the dippings made a few of my friends actually throw up almost immediately. Dont come here unless youre trying to prank someone with food poisoning.
Best Chinese food in town and the delivery driver always brings a treat for our dogs the gingerbeef is actual gingerbeef not sweet and sour beef like every other restaurant in town
Best...
Ed and the staff are amazing and their menu is delicious. Especially the Wor Wong ton soup!!
All I have to say is the owner is a horrible horrible person. Out there just to get in your pockets and take away from your family.
We ve ate here a few times now, we have always done delivery and it is fast and efficient. The food always comes hot and very delicious! One of our go to restaurants for takeout! Thanks!
Food was ok. Had better from there
Staff super friendly, and wortip sauce is really good.
Terrible service. We placed an order at 12 today for Christmas Eve dinner upon our arrival they told us it would be a 1 hour wait. A bag full of bricks to Shanghai Restaurant.
Did a takeout order for the first time. Was quick, food was very good. Will be back next visit to Lethbridge.
Ordered for the first time last night and I was so impressed. Food was outstanding and the delivery driver was so friendly, even had a treat for my dog. Will definitely be ordering again.
Food was disappointing
Love it! Its one of the few places that still makes the chowmein with a cabbage and thick chowmein noodle like Mings in Vauxhall, as well the sweet and sour spareribs still have the dark (soya) sauce on the ribs. (not breaded pork real ribs.) I like the old fashioned food!
place is nice food is meh. u want good eats go to mimis. Ive been to every Chinese place in lethbridge and this I would give a 3.5 but mimis is a 5/5
Excellent food as always. Had the salt and pepper chicken for the first time, but it definitely wont be the last.
Amazing !! Better than ever .. You will not be disappointed. Really nice Reno! Welcome back !
Food is great,portions huge,good service
Ive never had an issue with the quality of their food. I find New Shanghai to be the best Chinese in Lethbridge. Shout out to the delivery driver, best delivery driver in Lethbridge. He cares; recognized me even though I moved to a new place.
Our fried rice was burnt and the chicken balls were terrible. Complaining does not help so I decided to write this review!
Good prices, friendly people and tasty food
Really good food and was hot Was glad I didnt have to wait long for my order Just the won ton could use a little more meat in it
This was perhaps the worst Chinese take out food experience that I have had in my 62 years of existence. The food wasn t even close to what one would expect. Complete fail
Just ordered tonight, best place in the city by far. Possibly for any cuisine! Don t change a single thing, especially the delivery guy. We think he s great
Great food...incredible portions...table by the window and good friends...a great experience
Extremely average food. fried rice was good, chicken balls were tasty. But generally in my experience chow mien has noodles in it not just steamed cabbage.. costs entirely too much money for the quality.
Great Chinese food in Lethbridge fresh food every menu are delicious. I recommend sweet sour ribs you have to try it s the best!!!
Always good food
Food is great. Delivery driver is one of the nicest people ever. Always has treats for our dogs!
Take this review with a grain of salt because Im sure that most of the issues were caused by the Christmas eve rush. We ordered from them on Christmas eve at 5:30. All other Chinese restaurants stopped taking orders but they accepted our order. we chose to do delivery because we were quoted 2hr dlvry and 1.75hr pick up. We didnt receive the food until 8:30, 3hr after ordering but it was obviously a busy night so no problem. when we sat down to eat, my wife took one bite of the Mongolian beef slices and got a bad reaction and couldnt eat the rest. I found later that there was cauliflower in the dish and we specifically requested on cauliflower due to an allergy. The food was not bad for myself. Again I believe that these issues were caused by the crazy busy rush of Christmas eve. However our experience was less than appealing. Will try again later to see if issues were a fluke.
Staff very helpful and friendly. Foods dee-lish.
Not impressed at all. Was looking forward to going here, had heard good things. Wont be going back. Ordered 2 Dinners for 1. Ordered at 5:30 pm so food should have been fresh and at its peak Chow Mein - meh, Chicken Fried Rice - minimal chicken, a few specks of green onion, no other vegetables, below average, Dry Ribs - meh, Sweet & Sour Ribs - okay, Pineapple Chicken - chicken was tough.
Absolutely delicious food. We will be going back. The servings are very generous and a perfect takeout spot
Had a pretty decent take-out meal from here. They were willing to change up the order from the original dinner for one and switch items. Good service and reasonable prices!
Extremely nice people and good service, but the food was beyond disappointing. The broth in the won ton soup was lacklustre - a basic chicken stock would have been better. The breaded pineapple chicken was almost entirely bread. The chicken fried rice was actually just a glob of rice with precious little chicken or other vegetables, and certainly not freshly fried. The chicken chow mein lacked chicken and was very light in noodles, but had plenty of what seemed to be regular cabbage. 2 stars because the people were so nice - but the food was really sub-par
Very good food with a fresh unique taste. I would recommend to all.
It has good food
A+. Good customer service on the phone. Very quick delivery and the best Chinese food in Lethbridge. Nice delivery portion sizes. Very fresh and not overly greasy! I could not recommend this place enough. I will order again and again.
Fast delivery, great food. Large portions. We ordered 4 dishes and 3 of us were stuffed. Will order from here again!
Very good owner enthusiastic..
Great food take out or delivery only
For Lethbridge they have the best Chinese food!
