Shanghai Restaurant — Restaurant in Paterson

I hate to do this review but I have no choice. I feel like it's a public service and I have to even though I don't usually take time out of my day to put stuff online... That said... I ordered from uber eats and they had a good rating on uber eats, which now I see is misleading, because the rating here is terrible and I wish I knew that. When the food came, I put it immediately in the fridge, because it was for me to use the next day and it was late at night. The paper bag I realized the next day smelled like cat. Urine and I don't have any pets and I am allergic. I broke out when I ate the food and I didn't know why. I think there was cat urine or something that smells like it on the paper bag and the smell permeated the food, and II was very confused. Everything ended up in the garbage, and my fridge still smells like cat. Urine, I had to empty everything out and clean it, but it seems that it got into the butter and the milk the smell was just overwhelming. I saw it when I pulled out the bag and smelled it. The first time is that maybe something like one of the vegetables spoiled, but nothing was spoiled. And when I smelled the bag itself, it was a shocker. The food it smelled like it and immediately went in the garbage. It was really bad. A lot of money wasted and nowhere to put this post on uber, which I guess is why they have such good ratings. I honestly hope this helps somebody not to order from here. My fridge is contaminated!!!! I don't know how to fix this. Smell my whole kitchen smells like it when you open the fridge just from one night of that food being in there. Nothing was left outside. I took the Uber bag straight in. And I really don't know what to say, because the food itself smelled like cat urine. Also, the beef may fun did not have any beef in it, except maybe two 1/8 inch by 1/5 inch pieces of beef that did not smell like beef. It was immediate garbage....

Our normal Chinese takeout was closed so we decided to try here. When I first called they actually asked me to call back in 20 minutes but then said hold on. When she came back on the phone and I mentioned takeout, not delivery, she said okay and I gave her my order. After ordering four large dishes and an appetizer I asked about the coupon for the free chicken and broccoli (with $35+ order) that I saw online. She said she had no idea what I was talking about and said we don’t give away food for free. Embarrassed I said okay and left it at that. I then asked how long as again we were going to do a pickup. She seemed confused and said she would actually call me when the food was done. Not ideal as we were 10 minutes away when meant at best the food would be 20 minutes before it got to my table. After 40 minutes since my order my husband decided to just go anyway. Well he got there and found the order done sitting there even though no one called. So he arrives with food that I would not consider hot and a menu printout with the coupons (same as on their website that I thought were maybe just dated) right on there listing the coupon I asked about. From embarrassed to now annoyed. Food was okay but not fan of their lo mein which to me was more spaghetti like. Won’t be returning and will find another...

Keep supporting this restaurant!!! These are hard working and kind people that have amazing deals on ubereats! Take advantage of them while the promotion is still going. The food is always amazing!! It's also hard to find a really good shrimp with broccoli and these guys have amazing deals on them! Always happy to go back. *Update, some people are stupid anyone reading this must realize that. The food is food and the service is good, stop being so selfish and arrogant and just order your food. I've ordered the same shrimp with broccoli over a dozen times for awhile especially just in the recent months, never disappoints. Always attentive and never a problem when I ask for extra hot sauce. Order your food properly, don't be a dick, and you will recieve good food. Although I ordered the boneless spare ribs once and it was good but I like smaller and slimmer cuts instead of the big cuts they provide, minor personal issue, doesn't take away from quality though. Last thing, just because you don't recieve utensils, or sauce packets, or the person was "rude" over the phone, doesn't have anything to do with the quality of food. I hate seeing bad reviews at a place to eat that have nothing to do with the...
