Shang Hai Restaurant

We called for carry out. The fried rice was pretty good but the orange chicken was "meh". My daughter liked the wings and fries.

My husband and I's Chinese carryout place for a while! They do not open the whole day and they seem to update their hours often but the food is good! It's a stand alone restaurant and never seems too busy. We like to go here when we crave Chinese carryout because they are very reasonably priced and it comes with generous amount of food as well.

Seems like every time I try to go here the hours change. We've lý ever been successful twice in ordering food from here. Both times were amazing. New hours as of September 21st 2023

Consistently great Chinese food takeout. Very friendly, efficient, flexible, reasonable pricing.

Solid local Chinese food. The hot and sour soup is my go to. Beef and broccoli is good as well.

The food is amazing! I've lived in Olney for 8 years, and just discovered this place. Yes, its hard to tell their hours, but just place an order when you can, its so worth it. We really like the Hunan Chicken. The beef was also great. Today I tried the barbecue pork appetizer. It was absolute heaven. Couldn't stop nibbling until it was all gone. Nice portions, very good prices. Seems to be carryout only. We used to drive to the Far East in Rockville for good Chinese. Shang Hai is just as good, and just around the corner.

Eight years ago, I consistently reviewed this restaurant as a dive with horrible food. Eight years later, it is still a dive but the food is amazing. Everything on the menu is good and if you ask, they will sometimes make you dishes that are not on the menu. The service is consistently good. The dumplings are the best I have ever had. I would have given them five stars but the ambiance is just horrible. At first glance, you will likely tell yourself not to go inside and order food. Don't be fooled by the look of the place. Yes, it looks like a dive. However, the food is just amazing.

Singapore pork Fried rice was spectacular. 10/10. Great service. Lady behind counter was very nice.

Moved to Olney recently and have been looking everywhere for good Chinese food. Finally found it here. Great service, great prices, large portions and very flavorful. The chicken is moist and not all rubbery like I have found at other places nearby. The dumplings had a lot of flavor. The staff was also very kind and helpful. Recommend for carryout because is quite small. Hopefully remains consistent because this will be new go to for carry out.

This is the best Chinese carry out in the area. Note that I said carry out. Do not go there to sit and eat. they have a few tables, but it's not really set up for dining in. The food is excellent and the prices are good value for the portions you receive.
