Had a nice meal delivered to me from this restaurant well, staying in Detroit downtown. Enjoyed steamed dumplings and the general chows combo. Would not change my order.

Stopped here for a quick lunch and everything I tried was delicious! I really liked the Deep-Fried Squid off the Dim Sum menu. I've had this type of dish before, and Shangri-La did a really good job. The squid was just a touch on the chewy side, but not too bad. The batter was wonderfully light and crispy. I would order this again. The Steamed BBQ Pork bun was very good as well. The amount of filling was generous, and the sauce wasn't too sweet. Finally, I tried the Fried Rice with Shrimp and BBQ Pork. The taste of the dish was far more delicate (and less greasy) than many fried rice dishes I've tried. I liked that. The veggies and pork were plentiful. There weren't as many shrimp, but the ones that were added were larger than I would have expected. I enjoyed this dish and would order it again.

Great food all round! and amazing service! We had such a great time eating here. Our server Isabel was the sweetest and very attentive. The sushi was very flavorful and fresh, the dim sum was well seasoned and generous with filling inside, pad thai tasted good as well! Would definitely stop by again if we're ever in the area!

WOW! The food at this restaurant is absolutely delicious. Cantonese dishes, fresh Sushi and Dim Sum. My husband had the Shrimp in Garlic Sauce. He loved it, so many shrimp. My Dim Sum choices were so flavorful. Stuffed eggplant, Shrimp Balls and steamed dumplings. The Service is good and the staff help one another. I left my purse hanging off the back of my chair. I didn't realize this until I was almost home. I was sick. I called the Restaurant and they had it. Upon my return, they would not accept a reward. This is a place to return time and time again. THANK YOU!

I tend to get this to-go and have had it for years....but i visited and sat at their bar for the first time the other day and was very well-attended to! I had the ginger scallion lo mein w chili oil and (3) pan -fried dumplings. I've had many of their other dishes but eating it in-house was a treat and the best I've had here. The dumplings were also the biggest I've seen compared to many places around the area...so pleased and happy I finally dined-in!!

Food is delicious and authentic. The service was a bit slow due to them being understaffed and the wait time for a table took forever when they told me it was a 10 minute wait. It ended up being a 30+ minute wait. This place was clean and had 2 floors and a bar seating. Definitely would recommend their dimsum options and entrees.

So, I'm typing this review on a Tuesday night, while I stand in the lobby of the restaurant waiting for a carry out order. Mind you, I tried this place for the first time 3 days ago. Yes, 2 trips to the same restaurant, one that's an hour from my house, in a 3 day period. It's that good. The dim sum offerings are amazing, the red bean bun and sesame ball are the show stoppers. Best I've had in the Detroit area. As far as entrees go, I'm usually moderately adventurous with my Asian food but sometimes a nice basic almond boneless chicken is what is needed. That was the case during visit one. I've been thinking about it ever since, this the return trip. I also got beef Lo mein and sesame chicken today as well. I'm sure they'll be just as good. The restaurant itself is quaint and clean. Watching the staff is a lot of fun, everyone is totally in sync...it's a well oiled machine.
