Several reviews of Shanghai Grill describe a mix of positive impressions and seasoning concerns: chicken fried rice and hot sour soup arrive hot and in reasonable portions, but the fried rice is often overly salty and not satisfying as a main dish, while the soup is acceptable but cannot fully compensate for the salt issue. Other diners highlight a pleasant atmosphere and very friendly service, with repeated visits for lunch and some calling it a favorite. Two reports about Pad Thai note the dish being too salted on separate occasions. Overall, the sentiment points to inconsistent seasoning that should be addressed, alongside praise for the service and some tasty options.View restaurant profile
