Review Summary

Shanghai Grill offers a clean and pleasant environment with generally friendly service and generous portions that represent good value for money. While many visitors appreciate the consistent quality and accessible facilities, experiences remain polarized due to significant inconsistencies in food preparation. Some diners find the meals delicious and flavorful, whereas others have encountered issues with excessive saltiness, overcooked ingredients, or a lack of seasoning in various dishes. Despite a history of being a reliable spot for Chinese takeout, recent visits suggest a decline in quality control that leaves some patrons disappointed, though others continue to regard it as a favorite location for both lunch and dinner.

This place was our go-to Chinese takeout spot when I was a kid (it used to be called Chine Toque). I have been back a few times over the years & consistently have a pretty decent meal. Prices are fair & you get a soup, an appetizer, & a main dish with a side of white rice.

Unfortunately tonight I had a very mediocre meal there. The soup was okay & the peanut butter dumplings too, but the main dishes, chicken with crispy spinach & general tao's chicken were both honestly really bad. They used to be predictably delicious with lots of sauce & tons of flavour. Tonight the general tao's was basically chunky fried matter with some overcooked chicken inside & a small pool of sauce underneath. The chicken & spinach looked great, but the chicken, which was doused in sauce, was tasteless. The crispy wantons they serve at the beginning were served with a little dipping cup of ketchup. Finally, i don't know where they are sourcing their fortune cookies, but these are obviously the cheapest things on the market, they have the texture & sheen of product packaging.

I am disappointed since I am so used to getting a tasty & consistent meal at Shanghai Grill. There is a possibility we will give it another chance but definitely not anytime soon.
