Reviews
Shanghai is the best Chinese food in Visalia, hands down. The service is always excellent, food is freshly made and the consistency of their dishes is great!
Came here for the first time the other day for dinner because we've never been! Walked in and the lady working there in the front desk was on a phone call with a customer and didn't even acknowledge us walking in. The customer on the phone sounded like she was ordering food for a party so it literally took 10 minutes of our time. My daughter and I just sat there waiting for our order. The lady then had another call coming in so we waited ANOTHER 5 minutes without being acknowledged. When she got off the phone, we finally got our order (it was a phone order). We ordered one of their dinner combinations that came with orange chicken, fried wontons, egg roll, fried shrimp, chicken broccoli, chicken chow mein, and pork fried rice. I remember the total being $16+ as of 6/2024. Not bad ! We took the food home and everything was delicious. Orange chicken was juicy, fried wontons were fried to perfection, egg roll was yummy, fried shrimp was fried to perfection, chicken broccoli was yum, chow mein was delicious, and pork fried rice was yum! I'm so happy we found something closer to us than Panda Express if we're in a hurry for Chinese food. Wish the service was a bit more welcoming, though. Come check them out!

I've been here a few times when I used to live close by. Decided to try it again post covid and it doesn't feel the same.. the hard part is.. its sometimes salty and sometimes not so salty. I think this place is def a hit or miss but the locals within the area seem to love it alot.
