I recently had dinner there. The employees were super friendly and seated us right away. I ordered the crab rangoons, general tso chicken, and shrimp fried rice. The crab rangoons do not lack filling! While the flavor is fine, I do wish the filling was a tad sweeter. The general tso chicken was as expected. I prefer mine a bit spicier but that didn't detract from overall flavor. The shrimp fried rice was a little bland. It definitely required soy sauce! The interior is quintessential OG Chinese restaurant. A bit rustic and dim. Beautiful and spacious.

Ms. Shirley's is hands down the best place to eat! Service is efficient, courteous, and friendly!…read moreBoth times we have visited this restaurant, Ms. Shirley has personally come to visit our table. She remembered us the second time and asked why our daughter wasn't with us. When we told her she was busy with a school event Ms. Shirley packed up a full order of dumplings (on the house) because she remembered how much our daughter enjoyed them. Lets talk vegetables...fresh...fresh...and fresh!!! Ambiance is upbeat and clean, people overall seem happy to wait to get a table because the majority of those that we spoke with are return diners. That in of itseld speaks volumes to the loyalty we locals have for Ms. Shirley! Many of us have been fans of Ms. Shirley since her ownership of Royal China in Metairie! Ms. Shirley we hope you see this review! You are like the friendly grandmother that so many of us miss in our lives! Thank you for feeding us from your heart!

The wait was worth is because we had a great time at Miss Shirley's. Once we were seated we were brought dumplings, I couldn't have any because I'm vegetarian but I appreciated the quick and complimentary plate! I would say there was about as many vegetarian options as I thought there would be, which is a moderate amount. I didn't really like the vegetable dumplings (pictured with the skewers through them) mainly because I just didn't know how to eat them. I think if we had received chop sticks I would have enjoyed eating them more but having to use the fork was awkward. The sauteed tofu was the best thing I've ever had at a Chinese restaurant, I've been thinking about it frequently over the last 24 hours. Even if you aren't vegetarian and if you've never had tofu before but been curious - you have to start there. Or actually don't because no tofu will ever compare haha! From my non-vegetarian dining partners: the xiaolongbao that came on the mini swings was yummy, the crab meat shu mai could be skipped, the chicken was delicious, the fried shrimp balls are a must have, and the gyoza was good. We also were surprised with mini beignets at the end of the night! I thought that was super cool and they were delicious!

All of their menu items are extremely consistent and although my family has a set of favorite items that we order, I've never had anything from their menu that hasn't been excellent! I also really like that this is just a single, family-owned location. The owner is really nice and pretty much does all of the work with only the help of one extra cook. I'm sad to see that one other negative review on here with the person upset about the small price increases--I've always felt that they are very reasonable and only meant to account for rising food and business costs and not just a money grab, to be deceptive, or anything like that. Plus I really don't mind paying a little extra for good food that I know is also helping to support a nice, hardworking local family.

This place is a hit or miss. Since I've moved here I've came here a couple times but mainly for take out. It's quite cheap, but it's nothing exciting or special about it. It's affordable and does the job. The service was good enough, and the portion sizes were generous enough. Overall was satisfied, it didn't wow me. read more

This started out as a 4-star review, but after finishing it, I realized I did not have a single drawback to mention about this visit, so here goes... Called out for 2 roasted pork eggrolls, wonton soup, crab rangoons (5), and beef mai fun. $29 with tax w/o tip, and ready within 5 min of the promised time for pick up. Loved that sauces & plasticware were on the side; hate to waste what I won't use. Eggrolls were tasty and properly cooked all the way through. Rangoons tasted homemade, were large and came with ample sweet & sour sauce. Wonton soup came with crispy strips, and there were plenty of wontons for the amount of broth. VERY yummy. Beef mai fun was just what I was craving. Lots of tender beef, not tons of veggies. (Okay, maybe a few more veggies would have been nice.) Reheated easily since there was no way I could finish any of what I ordered in one sitting. I made 3 meals out of it. Service was very nice and friendly. Order was well packaged and easy to unpack and repack. Cardboard was even used to make sure my mai fun container wasn't crushed.

This was a Thursday takeout lunch order as a treat for my birthday. Came recommended. Was warned…read morewhen I called in the order they were cash only. Don't know if this was just a fluke, because their menu says they take CC. Order was ready when I arrived in 25 minutes (said they had just bagged it - and it was still hot) and service was friendly. Quantities are huge. However, I struggled with the taste of almost every single item we ordered, and I ordered a lot to be sure I could get a feel for their quality: sm egg drop soup, lg hot & sour soup, chicken lo mein (meal, not lunch special), app of crab rangoons and 2 lunch specials, both with egg rolls, one w white rice, one with the shrimp fried rice, one roasted pork with vegetables, one pepper steak. There is no description on the menu for most items. Crab rangoons: huge amounts of filling, but the filling...what was it? It was seasoned and was not like anything I've ever tasted. I'd almost venture to say it was a crabcake filling. It was definitely lacking in cream cheese. I ate 2 and had to trash the others. Egg drop soup: wrong texture, wrong taste. Most went down the drain. Hot & sour soup: gelatinous texture instead of smooth, brothy texture, and seasoning was off. Nothing about it was hot & sour. Most went down the drain. Lo Mein: OK, the to go menu I picked up while I was there said "made with thin egg noodles." Picture is below. Nothing like expected lo mein; more like a chicken dish over lots of angel hair. It actually had a good taste - for something other than lo mein. Took 2 bites; rest is being given to co-workers who might enjoy it. Egg rolls: large, well cooked. Tasty filling except for the fact they had shrimp in them. If I had known, I would not have ordered. Roasted pork: nice flavor, pork a bit dry on edges. Picked shrimp out of fried rice (expected to do this; did not expect to bite into shrimp in my egg roll) and rest of rice was nicely flavored. Pepper steak: lots and lots and lots of dark brown gravy with moderate flavor. Again, thick texture to gravy (like above soups). Beef was tender, peppers were cooked just right and white rice was nice texture. $65 before tip. So, if you want friendly service, large portions and are not hung up on flavors (I'm probably ruined by years of New York Chinese food), this might be your spot. It's just definitely not my spot.
