Best

My favorite Chinese in Chicago! The Xiao Long Bao (soup dumplings) are awesome, as are the scallion pancakes and nian gao -- rice noodles.

Worst

Their food used to be great, but my last few orders have had extremely overcooked food. Look elsewhere for great chinese food.

Large portions. Tasty food but as delicious as Lao Sze Chuan or Lao Beijing. more

I love the pot stickers and soup dumplings here! Other dishes are very good as well but these are the show stealers! more

This is easily some of the best Chinese food you can get delivered in Chicago. We order from Lao Shanghai at least once a week, and have even stopped ordering Chinese delivery at home because we'd rather wait and order from these guys when we're at work. AWESOME. more

Great food! Delivery can sometimes be a little slow but other times it's really quick. Might have to warm it up when it arrives but the food is worth it. more

Lunch delivery was fast and food was ok. Better to eat the restaurant but price is good for the amount of food you get and the quality more

BEWARE 5/16/2008

I recently visited this resturant with a class of 11 students. I thought the food was okay going down. But I suddenly became gravely ill 4 hours after my meal. I was vomitting and had dyskensia. My friend from class also became very ill with the same symptoms and ended up in the ER. It was a party of 11, 5 students became ill with the same symptoms. I was in bed for two days. I do not recommend anyone to taste this resturant. I have ate in the past raw sushi and other ethnic foods and have never become sick. Beware this place should clean up there kicthen if they want to continue to serve others. I ate Lo mein shrimp this should have not made me sick, what are they serving? more

This is our favorite Chinese food in Chicago! We order the lo mein every time, it's excellent (possibly the best I've had)! more
