What User likes about Shanghai Classic:
Been looking for a good chinese restaurant close to home. the food is great, service is good and one might think its a little overpriced but.....when you get the dishes...unbelievable the amount of food! We (hubby and myself)ordered sweet and sour pineapple chicken, chicken fried rice and tenderloin with broccoli..that is the best rice i have had in a very long time. All the food tasted great but we had enough for 2... View all feedback. What User doesn't like about Shanghai Classic:
The food here is about average. We don't like to order Westernized Chinese food, but when we ask about the real Chinese menu, we are often discouraged or told we won't like things. There are items on the menu that are only in Chinese, which is problematic, and does them a disservice, because there are many non-Chinese people who love authentic Chinese food, and don't want to be stuck eating pineapple chicken.

Glad we stopped for lunch. Got lots for our $10. Awesome ginger beef. "just be yourself, you are wonderful". My fortune cookie made me happy.

Good Chinese food! Tasty, fresh, hot and yummy! Fast and excellent service! Conducive to a large group with fun "lazy Susan" tables!

Shanghai Classic is a neighborhood Chinese spot where regulars are treated well by polite staff. The décor is standard but clean. The menu is not extensive, but the food is consistent and authentic. The restaurant is busy during dinner time but worth the wait. Regulars love the dumplings, salt and pepper fish, and congee. Lunchtime specials like congee and noodle dishes are delicious. The Peking duck and shrimp and tomato sizzling rice are excellent. The lunchtime noodle and rice dishes are flavorful and satisfying. If in the mood for noodles, this restaurant is a great spot to visit.
