豐味小館Shanghai Bistro — Restaurant in Reno

Absolutely phenomenal. I got the la zi ji with wonton soup and they didn't hold back on the spices. Pictures on the wall of you don't know what you want.

Yes they have some American Chinese stuff, and even some more pan-Asian like pad Thai, but you're not going here for that. You're going for Chinese deep tracks with soul infused. The name says Shanghai, but the menu is rich with Sichuan and Cantonese offerings as well.

Food comes out when it's ready, not in some artificial order based on who ordered when. They have tables with lazy susans for your family, where you can order entrees family style and split them all. If you order a whole fish you get the whole fish. Etc. etc.

With due respect, anyone who gave a negative review because the staff aren't bubbly and their their "fried meat with sticky sauce" wasn't up to their imagination has missed the point entirely. This place gets it right. If you want it...

Planned to have have dinner here last night but while one if the servers was helping me and trying to take my order the chef or whatever he is comes out the kitchen SCREAMING at her she didn't even finish helping me and went to the kitchen area where he could still be headed and seen SCREAMING at her. I felt so bad for her and the lack of disregard he had for the customers is insane.

He didn't care that he was being loud, disrespectful and causing a hostile & uncomfortable environment for customers.

I was so disappointed and disgusting by his behavior that I apologized to the waitress and left.

I didn't not want to support a restaurant that treats its employees like this and make for an uncomfortable environment.

On this alone I do not recommend...

We have been here many times. The food is always top notch. I read a review on the Mongolian beef that said it was rubbery. Apparently the person doesn't know what velveting is. The beef is always amazing. Never chewy and always soft with a nice bite to it. The flavors are wonderful. Probably the best Mongolian beef in town though I'm partial to the Mongolian lamb at Crawfish Asian Grill.

Everything I have had at Shanghai has been wonderful. Their whole fried flounder is great, their dry scallop fried rice is spot on, the services is great, the food comes out really fast.

It's hard for my wife and I to find something we don't love...
