Family in town so we stopped by for dinner on a weeknight and it was packed. Everything we tried was good- garlic shrimp, eggplant w pork, sweet pork ribs, and salt and pepper fried fish. Next time will try the more authentic Shanghainese dishes. Service was quick and served family style.

We recently decided to try Shanghai Kitchen for takeout, hoping it would become a new go-to Chinese spot after seeing a glowing review posted in a Facebook foodie group. Unfortunately, it was a major disappointment. We ordered the Salt and Pepper Pork, which was mediocre, and the Crab with Rice Cakes. To our disbelief, the crab, aside from one half piece, was completely devoid of meat. It felt as if they had reused empty crab shells, which was both shocking and disappointing. To make matters worse, there was an overwhelming amount of rice cake compared to the scant crab. At nearly $30, the crab dish was a complete ripoff. Regrettably, I can't recommend Shanghai Kitchen. For a satisfying Chinese food experience, I suggest looking elsewhere.

It's nice to have a go-to restaurant in your direct vicinity and I must say that this Chinese restaurant is one of them (although I don't utilize it enough.) A few days ago, a little past 9pm (on Christmas Eve to be exact), on my way to go to a friend's house, I stopped here to get me a few items. There was one group of people (the last diner of the night) that was finishing off their late night meal. Other than that, I appeared to be the last customer for the night. The lady that greeted me asked me if it was for a dine in or to-go (wonder if she would have accepted me had I said dine in? Not sure.) I immediately responded, "To-go, please."Like I stated earlier I only wanted a few items (a few sides.) I got me the pork dumplings and the veggies egg rolls. The lady said it'd be 5 min.While waiting, I looked around the dining room and took a few photos. Nicely dimmed lights, each dining table was neatly arranged/set. Very clean and inviting. I like the bright red napkins. This restaurant appears to have received several accolades in the past (there are frames magazine articles on one of the walls.) As promised, it was about 5 minutes before my food was ready. A different lady gave me a bag that contained my food with a nice smile. Service is good here.I didn't eat the food until next day. Sometimes there is a huge difference between eating it fresh or a day old so I'll be fair with this review based on the fact that I ate it when the food was half day old. Overall, both of them were good. To be frank, when it comes to dumplings or potstickers, I prefer them to be pan-fried to be deep fried. I wonder if they ever make them pan-fried or even steamed. This will be a little request I'll be sure to make upon my next visit for sure. The veggie egg rolls were a bit small for the price. Tasted good however. I really need to try their main dishes in the future. Then I'll be able to elaborate more on their food in a real sense. Until then my hon/frank rating shall be 3-stat.

Shanghai Kitchen serves up some extremely delicious food, especially if you like Szechuan style food. The Szechuan style green beans are a must try. Their flavor will be what brings you back to Shanghai Kitchen over and over. I have tried many of the dishes in the menu and can highly recommend the Szechuan Style Triple Delight and the Orange Chicken. The service is always attentive and the restaurant itself is comfortable offering booth and table seating. I would suggest dining in as the times we have ordered food for take out have been underwhelming.

Shanghai Kitchen recently introduced two new popular Shanghai dishes, the crab roe noodles and dry pot lamb chops, rarely seen not only in Denver, but also also in Los Angeles or New York. For foodies crave for authentic Shanghai food, these are must try. The other dishes are xiaolongbao, sweet and sour baby ribs, Buddhist delight, vegetable spring rolls and shepherd's purse tofu soup.

I honestly didn't know what to expect when it comes to Shanghai food in Denver area - not many restaurants have been able to do SH food justice imho.I'm impressed by this place! They have some ver decent and authentic /staple / traditional shanghainese dishes here! Just need some prerequisite SH food knowledge to know what to order!

$25 for two egg rolls and general tso's chicken. It was so mediocre you have no idea, how does this place have great reviews lol?! I feel like because Denver's food scene is mediocre, people delude themselves into thinking places have good food. This isn't it.
