Shangri-La — Restaurant in City of Lloydminster

Passing through Lloyd on a roadtrip and as we were driving along looking for somewhere to get fast food from, on a whim we decided to get food to go from Shangri-La. Wow.

The veggies in the Shrimp and Broccoli were so fresh and the veggies and shrimp were cooked to perfection!

The Beef Shanghai Noodles were so flavourful, the beef slices were incredibly tender and juicy, and the noodles were cooked really well; not too chewy and not smooshy soft either. We also had the Shrimp Shanghai Noodles and they were equally delicious and perfectly cooked! Nice amount of bean sprouts, sliced onion, and sliced cabbage, and a wee bit of julienned carrots for some colour.

The Sweet and Sour Ribs were in a really great tasting homemade sweet and sour sauce (if you'relooking for that red gluey kind of s&s, keep going, because this is not the kind they use here!). They aren't boneless ribs, and are actually the kind with the white gristle-y bones...these are my favourite kind and I was ecstatic to discover them! Every piece had a nice big juicy chunk of pork that was cooked to perfection and fall off the bone!

The Spring Rolls (4 pcs) were also very yummy and nice and crispy! They seem homemade, with a very tasty bit of flavourful veggies inside.

We got everything to go and all of it was ready in less than 15 minutes. If you're really in a hurry, you could call ahead. If you're eating on the go, be sure to ask for chopaticks/utensils, as none came in the bag, but there was plenty of soy sauce and plum sauce. The inside of the restaurant was very cozy and cute, with some beautiful massive koi in a tank in the middle of the restaurant.

Definitely would order from here again on our next...

By far the best Asian food period. The Ginger sauce they use for the Ginger Beef and Ginger chicken absolutely can not be beaten. The new location is definitely a welcome change from the older smaller that was on the Saskatchewan side of lloydminster. Inside it was not really changed from the Ricki's restaurant that used to be in this location, so it is still pretty nice inside. Back to the food... the special fried rice has everything in it, including chicken, pork, beef and shrimp if you want shrimp. The portions and quality of the ingredients are top quality for asian food. Basically if you like Chinese food you better hit up this place and if there is an older lady serving you, tell her the place is awesome cause she...

Reason for low rating: food appeared to have been cooked earlier and rewarmed using a microwave. Everything was dry, and some parts were got while others were cold. Service was good, plenty of parking and restaurant was reasonably clean. Their dishes, cutlery and plastic glasses were covered with water spots. Maybe a water softener would help them out. We both had option "b", chicken balls, pork ribs, rice and greens. Food apart from being dry and cold was meh. Also ordered a side of 4 spring rolls. I'm guessing they came from superstore or similar, frozen and the no name brand as these were nit real appetizing and small. Overall would not recommend...
