Better than most take out places… nice people, well prepared food, and would like more traditional Chinese items(I am sure they can do it!)

Love this place. Best Chinese takeout food along the Cape-Atlantic Jersey shore area. We have tried multiple Chinese take out places since we re-located to the shore 10 years ago– from Cape May thru Atlantic County, and this tiny, little family owned/operated business on Maryland Ave in Somers Point is, without a question in our minds – the single best place for Chinese takeout food! The owner is the best – very friendly, efficient and looks after orders to make sure they are correct. Look, we have not had a bad experience here. We regularly travel the 25 miles RT to enjoy this takeout food. The brown garlic sauce on the shrimp/chicken/Chinese veg combo is awesome! Certainly recommend trying Shanghai House for wonderful Chinese takeout!

TERRIBLE, TERRIBLEEXCUSEFOR A CHINESERESTAURANT I ordered takeout from this establishment and I’m quite dissatisfied with the food, as well as appalled by the service. I ordered a gen. tso’s combo and an order of steamed dumplings. The dumplings are very mealy and quite tasteless. Also, their small container of sauce tastes like a tablespoon of soy sauce with a cup of water– quite watered down. The gen. tso’s is WAY, WAY too salty and it all cost me over 17 dollars! That means that we spent $ 10 on gen. tso’s chicken that was unacceptably salty and more for crappy rubber dumplings. On an occasion a few weeks earlier, someone in my family ordered crab wontons and chicken and vegetables. Their chicken and vegetables were almost inedibly salty(they didn’t even eat half) and the crab wontons came with no dipping sauce. I’m definitely not wasting money here again because I feel that good customer service can smooth over mostly any scenario in the food industry, as opposed to not giving a flying buck. I called to tell them what I thought however they were rude and apathetic; like many places, they haven’t caught on to the fact that word of mouth and your reputation take you a long way in this business. Thus, this makes another Chinese takeout place scratched off my list and another restaurant I will make sure I tell EVERYONE to stay away from, including all the summer tenants that rent our properties during the busy summer months. I just don’t understand why one can’t find a good Chinese place around here. Seems like anyone can open up a shack and serve salty and expensive nonsense these days. It’s alright, however. Establishments that treat their customers poorly seldom survive.

I think this is the best Chinese food on the mainland. The food is always good and fresh. I always get the vegetable mei fun. The portion is big and the vegetables are fresh and crisp.

My family’s beloved Golden Point has closed(anyone know what happened?) and we had to find a new place. First time, I was unimpressed, boring soup, greasy lo mein(my take out chinese food test item) and decent fried rice in take out… also $ 0.50 extra for chili oil, outrageous! It wasn’t even that great. I heard good things so we gave it another try. Shared the flounder special(flounder, ginger, veggies) and the dry fried string beans. This was awesome! The string beans were a step above the norm with good wok hay blistering and a tasty garlicky sauce. The flounder was insanely good, philly chinatown good! Perfectly fried fish with well-cooked veggies(a few too many onions but it can slide) and well-balanced ginger sauce. I ate this way too fast, we also devoured the rest as meal 2 the next day, the portions were well-sized as most places tend to be. I look forward to trying the rest of the menu especially looking forward to an egg roll in my future.

Still looking for my «go to» Chinese restaurant on or around the Island. The cashier was friendly, the portions were good, and the prices were very reasonable. Its an open kitchen so you can see whats going on, and I’m almost positive the cashier also made my meal while the cook was sitting down. If you are sensitive to sodium, please by pass this place. I am very sodium tolerant and was still left with a headache after eating their food.

I have never been a fan of take out Chinese food. The ‘dark, I am not sure that it is chicken but what the hell’ meat that you usually get. Dried out fried rice, etc… but this place is different. Surly not P.F. Chang’s but the chicken is white meat in the General Tso’s Chicken. The fried rice has really good flavor. Now the ambiance is nothing to talk about, it is still Chinese take out… but the food is far better than the average.

Best Chinese outside of AC. Lo mien is good. General Tso is great. Looks clean inside. Only place we’ve found that can satisfy our craving.

If I were to title this review, it’d be «Two Out of Three Ain’t Bad». This is an unassuming small storefront on the road from Somers Point to Longport. Blink and you may miss it. There are a couple tables inside but no wait service. It’s basically a takeout place. As Chinese takeout goes, especially at the Shore, this is better than average. We started with very good won ton soup, delicious steamed meat dumplings and a disappointing veggie egg roll(overdone, too much curry). Moved on to a wonderful General Tso’s with, yes, real chicken, not ground up processed chicken product. Nicely spicy and sweet. Also quite yummy according to the group was the Shrimp and Chinese Vegetables, chock full of large shrimp and crisp veggies. The Veggie Fried Rice, on the other hand, largely consisted of onions. Disappointing. Not a broccoli floret to be seen. We’ll definitely be ordering here again as it’s the best we’ve found in the area… so far.

I hate that I never tried this place before… and now I’m moving away in a month. Looks dubious on the outside, but walk in and you won’t be disappointed. They have maybe 4 tables inside where you can eat in. People behind the counter were very friendly. Food is definitely better than most hole in the wall Chinese places. Dont forget to get the house fried noodles with homemade duck sauce! Try this place… you’ll thank me later.

Generals TSO’s Chicken, use real white meat, unlike other chinese take out joints that uses processed chicken. though pricey for chinese take out. you pay for the quality. would have gotten 5 stars if their white rice didnt suck.

This joint makes me enjoy chinese food. Everything here is delicious! As a vegetarian, I love the veg spring rolls, veg fried rice and recently it’s all about the ho phun… I hear the general chicken is great too!
