Shanghai Garden

Can I give them no stars?
Wow first time I wanted to order from them, they said no problem 15 – 25 mins, called after 35 mins and the lady on the phone said they just started making it,(busy on a Monday night? Come on) well I wait more and then 1hr 20mins later I call and she says it’s ready waiting there but they don’t have a driver, do I want to pick up? Really, why would someone not tell me that it was going to be that long and that I need to pick up? So I canceled it and order from someone else and got it in 25 mins. So not work the wait.

This is the best Chinese food I have had in a long time. Normally after I have Chinese takeout I feel sick to my stomach and curse myself for even thinking about egg-​rolls; however, I never feel that way after I eat here. The food is fresh and delicious.

Fast and Friendly, delicious and fresh. By far my favorite Chinese takeout.
Love the soups, love the cheese wontons, especially love the dim sum and the cold sesame noodles.
They also server KILLER sesame shrimp.

The food here is regular, generic Chinese food. Nothing special about anything. No dish stands out. It is your last minute decision on dinner when you just don’t feel like cooking and because it is close you order. Their delivery service however is horrific. They once told us 30 minutes and it took an hour and a half to get our food. Anytime we ever ordered for delivery it just takes forever. Needless to say we have switched out Chinese take out place and have had better results so far. Shanghai needs to get a grip on their service. Leaves a lot to be desired.

Good, not great.
It’s a run of the mill Chinese Take Out.
I would say it’s the cleanest Chinese place in the area, and the Lo Mein is the best I’ve had from a Chinese Take Out type place.
Other dishes are average, and they do not know anything about Gluten sensitivities.

Super solid Chinese food. I order here once a month. Hasn’t let me down yet.

I ordered wonton noodle soup but got no soup. My chicken wing had a hair in it. Never ordering from here again.

The food is generally good for a take-​out place, but the person who takes your order should speak and understand English better.

Just tried this place for the first time and was very pleased with it. I ordered Singapore noodles that was very good. The amount of shrimp, beef and chicken was perfect and it was not overly oily like a lot of places. Portion size was good. Will go back and try the rest of the menu.

Fresh food best in the Patchogue area. Clean and fast delivery.

Been looking for decent Chinese in the area. Read reviews and thought we’d give this place a try, especially since they advertise «Chinatown Style Noodle Soups!» I’m a sucker for propaganda and an even bigger sucker for savory soups so off we went.
The place is, in fact, very clean. Much cleaner than any other take-​out only place we’ve been to. But where others gush about «ambiance» is beyond me. It’s a take-​out joint. Nothing more, nothing less. What made me laugh, though, was this «award», proudly displayed and framed on their wall. Check it out and you’ll see what I mean.
Buddanyway…
The staff WAS friendly. We placed our order and it was prepared pretty quickly. While waiting, we noted several regulars who came in for their orders so, that’s a good thing.
The steamed shumai was pretty good. Savory and moist with a decent dipping sauce. The pork fried rice was unremarkable. The shrimp lo-​mein was pretty good but also somewhat unremarkable (except that it was less greasy that others we’ve had). Wife liked the Mu-​Shu shrimp. Got the roast duck noodle soup which was pretty good.
Chunks of savory duck in a heart broth. We were a little unaccustomed to having actual bones in the pieces so next time, we’ll probably order a soup that will take a little less work to enjoy but it was a great dish nonetheless.
The price won’t break the bank either.
Our initial impression, therefore, is that it’s a decent little place. We will return though will probably focus on getting their soups. Give them a try. I think you won’t be disappointed.

Went here tonight, the food is always fresh and just right. Restaurant is clean and service is fast. We are new to the area and hadn’t found any good Chinese for awhile, but this one is at the very top of our list for good eats. Will definitely go back. Good cheese wontons, dumplings, sweet and sour chicken.

Eating at the right time is pretty tough but this place can make a great dinner for you to enjoy in 15 minutes. They use fresh ingredients and the place looks clean. Its not sticky and grimy like some take outs. They took an extra minute to make sure they got my order right which I have to say means a lot. Their noodle soups are very close to the chinatown variety so don’t write them off because they are a «fast-​take out». I enjoyed it.

Went here for take out, last time I was here was easily 15 years ago. Everyone enjoyed their dinner. Singapore Mei Fun was especially good, as was Chicken w. Mixed Vegetables. The chicken noodle soup broth was tasty, and not too salty. I felt the restaurant was especially clean. It is a take out place with a large table with folding chairs so you can stay and eat your grub. We will definitely be back.

Great Food at Good Price! Best Chinese in Patchogue.
