Best

Authentic Chinese food on Grand Avenue! We offer dine-in, delivery, take-out, and a lunch buffet (lunch buffet not available on Sundays.) Just make your way to our local location ...

Worst

Food here is ok,far from the best in the twin cities though. Tonight we were told 1 hour delivery time and it took 2 hours. When we finally received it we were missing 3 orders of...

The chicken with garlic is one of my favorite meals and its always amazing! Today it was perfection with my Chinese greens. Thank you. more

Editorial review from Citysearch 12/28/2012

After hearing many good things about the Grand Shanghai, a few of my friends and I decided to try it out one Saturday evening. This is definitely one of the best Chinese restaurants in the Twin Cities! The wontons on the appetizer menu are a must have and the beef lo mein was superb. Two of my friends had the lemon chicken and the third had the pork lo mein and none was disappointed. If you happen to be in the area, I highly recommend the Grand Shanghai!!! more

I have never had better peking duck than what I have been served here. It is available in one, two, or the full three courses. \r \r They have other food here as well apart from the usual american popular chinese ""junk food."" They are kings of the bamboo steamer. \r \r If you come in here and have some dumplings, pork bao, and the duck with a couple of friends, you'll see why I gave them five stars. more

Editorial review from Citysearch 11/27/2012

Big eaters delight as the Buffet is a real bargain at under $8.00 for lunch \r as far as selection? Yea OK a bit limited but for the money it still is a bargain and what they do offer is very good. Atmosphere? Well if you are hungry that does not matter and while the place is not fancy it serves very good food and I am likely to return for this lunch buffet. Just east of Hamline on the very trendy Grand Ave, Parking can be a tricky on weekends but most weekdays it just takes a bit of parallel parking skills. more

The waitress was very friendly the amount of food was great and the food itself was just mouth watering, literally! me and a group of my friends were starving that day and we didn't realize how much food we really ordered! but it was gooooood. more

Five stars for what this place does well 4/3/2012

Five stars for what this place does well.I have never had better peking duck than what I have been served here. It is available in one, two, or the full three courses.

Nice 3/22/2012

This place is as busy as it deserves to be! Food is great as usual. more

Quite Good Vegetarian Food 3/15/2012

Service was excellent. For a non-vegetarian restaurant, the vegetarian meal was quite good. more

I will be referring more friends here. 3/7/2012

Both my husband and I liked the great service from Li and Ying, keep up the good work!!! I will be referring more friends here. more

I come here all the time for many years now, and I love it! 2/27/2012

The food and service are great. As you know I come here all the time for many years now, and I love it! I live about a mile east of Como Lake and I don't mind driving all the way here to get my food. more

Worse than Leann Chin 2/23/2012

I'm really sorry but at least when I eat fast food Chinese, I usually don't feel sick to my stomach 2 hours later. Tried the buffet. Got there an hour before it ended yet I don't think anything was replenished while I was there. A couple of things were passable but at least one item - the beef and potatoes, ended up in my napkin (not in my pocket for later, but spat from my mouth. yech). Now it's 6 oclock and I feel woozy as all getup, If you think all Asian food is delicious, or you're offended that I would use Leann Chin's name in vain, you might dig this place, as the price is super low. But I don't think quality and all-you-can-eat have to be mutually exclusive. With so many other choices on in the Twin Cities and especially Grand avenue, I think this place is a total fail. more

I Wish I Could Eat Here Every Day 2/17/2012

I had never been to this place - I was driving around looking for an alterations shop and just got super hungry, but I'm seriously glad I did. I tried the black bean chicken and it was hands down the best thing I've ever eaten - and I'd never even heard of it before. I wish I could go there every day...actually I might try :) more

Great food and service. 2/14/2012

Great food and service. I believe we will be coming here more often. Thanks for the hospitality. more

Big Eaters Delight 2/7/2012

Big eaters delight as the Buffet is a real bargain at under $8.00 for lunch. As far as selection? The food is plenty and varied and it is a fantastic bargain. While the place does not need to hide behind fancy decor it serves very good food and I am likely to return for this lunch buffet. Just east of Hamline on the very trendy Grand Ave. more

Really good food. 1/31/2012

Really good food. I am a picky eater and I was able to really enjoy a few things off their menu. more

This is our place, and it's great! 1/24/2012

The service is great, even with just two waitresses, who know us well. I stopped at the sixth chamber bookstore first, while my husband went in. My coke was brought out without him ordering it. I got my usual, garlic chicken. I have never seen anything like this on other menus. It's loaded with onions, shredded carrots, bamboo shoots, sliced chicken, and what seems to be jarred garlic, gently tossed in a light sauce.It's not a saucy dish. I love it so much I don't add rice. I only eat a few onions, and they are so tasty that I take them home to use in other dishes. My husband got his usual, kung pao shrimp, always good. One note, they have some of the best egg foo young, served in a delicious gravy. more
