Place is great. The food is significantly better if you eat at the restaurant, and you have to order the right food. The hot and sour soup as well as the sesame chicken were probably the best I've eaten in the area.
This is the best hidden gem. Boneless spare ribs are the best that I have ever had. Sesame chicken is banging and good chicken too. My go to.
Best Chinese food around. Food is always consistent and NO grease. Excellent food
Ok food for quick take out.
Updating my review. Things were much better the second time. I'll chalk up the first visit to pandemic issues. Food was better and yay sauce etc!The food is alright for the area, but the takeout system is weird. Not including any sauce packets or at least a fortune cookie, with a $40 takeout order, is stingy.
I've had good experiences buying takeout food at this restaurant for sometime, but yesterday ended the string.The food was so bad we had to throw out what was leftover.I sensed something was wrong when I didn't see other lunchtime customers on a Friday.Tasteless..I wonder if their cooks prepared it or it was put together by the young ladies who took the order and handed it to me..never again!
Fantastic dinner!! Wonderful owners. Thank you for serving us with such a yummy meal. The kids loved it too!!
Best take out chinese food in the area! They are very receptive to special instructions such as light oil. The food is very fresh and consistently excellent quality. The spare ribs on the bone and and sesame chicken are top notch
Some of the most authentic Chinese food in this area. Highly recommend
Our second time ordering from Shanghai Gourmet since moving to Wilton. It was a big family order and it was outstanding! We ordered at least a dozen different dishes and everything was hot and delicious. After trying many average and subpar Chinese restaurants in the Wilton and Norwalk area we have finally found our go to Chinese place. Highly recommended.
