Generous portions that include rice, appetisers and sides, good value for money, polite and quick service, and a clean, wheelchair accessible setting are highlighted, along with praise for vegetarian and vegan options. On the other hand, several diners report excessive salt in dishes such as fried rice and Pad Thai, with fried rice sometimes described as inedible despite being hot and served in reasonable portions, and at least one soup pairing failing to compensate for the main dish. A number of long-time customers describe the food as delicious and the staff as friendly, setting the tone of a pleasant place that remains a favorite for some. Overall impressions suggest Shanghai Grill can deliver solid experiences but consistency in seasoning would help.View restaurant profile
