    My family ordered dinner from Mei Shung Saturday night. We had a delicious feast. I neglected to take photos of the dishes from this order before we ate. So, please bear with me. We ordered plenty of food to enjoy and had enough for a couple of leftover meals. Beef Noodle Soup - This might be the best beef noodle soup dish I had besides my mom's. There were plenty of chunks of beef and the noodle itself had a nice bite and almost seemed homemade. The broth was frequent and well-seasoned. Garlic Eggplant--Very garlicky, this eggplant retained the hot temperature from a 25+ minute ride home. It was mouthwateringly delicious. The sauce was a great compliment to the steamed rice. Mongolian Beef - Although I was never a fan of Mongolian beef, it was delicious. They didn't skimp on the beef, and it was tender and flavorful. Beef with Chinese Broccoli - Tender slices of beef stir-fried with Chinese broccoli are always a wonderful combination. Beef Chow Fun - My favorite Cantonese dish! We have tried to duplicate it at home, but it does not compare to the hot flames from a Chinese restaurant. Homestyle Bean Curd - Deep-fried tofu stir-fried with pea pods and carrots with plenty of gravy for the rice. I haven't had much of an appetite for some time now and I ate a lot to compensate for the past few months. I am very satisfied with the meal, and I cannot wait to order from Mei Shung again. It seems they don't offer dine-in since the last time I visited. They set up a pickup station at the front of the restaurant. There are plenty of paid parking spaces available in front of the restaurant. Public transportation is also available.

    Food was fine. Fried rice had good flavor and the pork belly (bao) was tender, falls apart nicely. Our issue was with the service. Staff acted like they didn't want to be at work - sat at another table chatting, only coming over to bring food from the kitchen, never checked if we needed anything. One of the staff was passive aggressive when it was clear they made a mistake trying to charge my friend's credit and we asked about it. They should have come to us to tell us and ask if we could give them more time or if we wanted to pay with a different credit card or cash. I just paid cash so we could get the heck out of there.

    Decided to spontaneously eat here on a friday night while walking past and did not regret it…read more The restaurant wasnt overly crowded or loud and, the service was great while the food was even better. The taiwanese style popcorn chicken and pork cutlet were super juicy and tender with nicely crisp breading. The sausage had a pleasant sweetness to it and was served with garlic chips, which added a nice touch. Finally, the broth of the Sichuan noodles was packing with flavor: sweet, tangy, spicy, umami - truly hit all the spots without being too numbing to your mouth, if thats one of your concerns Would definitely return to try the other menu items, especially their hot sizzling plates and their dessert/drink offerings

    Valentine's Night in Chinatown is going to be a long wait for most places ... this was the 3rd or…read more4th place we went to and got only a 30 min wait (slight lullaby in patrons) vs the 90m to 2 hours from the Shabu Rotary and Sushi Plus across the street. Its a smaller place but has updated and cute design and vaguely anime vibe. The tables have little drawers with napkins and flatware like some Korean places do as a nice surprise... also the QR code menu on it. Food is Asian fusion and primarily Taiwanese I guess so it was different but familiar and I got a Hotpot to appease my disappointed shabu craving... pals like their dishes as well... drinks were pretty cute - especially the chocolate sugar bear. Good place to hit ii Chinatown next time youre down there.

    Such a pleasant, fulfilling surprise. By chance we stopped at Shang Noodle, looked in the window…read moreand was drawn inside. Atmosphere was great; a little noisy, but in a good way. Lots of friend groups and others, enjoying their together time, incredible meals, and just sharing together. Serious stuff: Ambiance was very inviting, letting all clientele the opportunity for unfettered enjoyment. Food was flavorful, sumptuous - just delicious and more than ample. Service; quick, courteous, attentive. Waitstaff proving good information on menu items and pairing suggestions. They checked on us several time, ensuring everything was to our liking. If ever back in Chicago, I will definitely be look for Shang Noodle!

    Went here on a whim last night after reading all the glowing reviews on Yelp. Before that, I…read morechecked out a few eateries on the 4th floor of the Nordstrom building, but nothing really stood out, and honestly, none of them seemed very busy and the one restaurant Lao Sze Chuan was way too expensive, $30+ entrees were average and the place wasn't busy at all. So I decided to try Shang Noodle, which was tucked away on a side street off Grand Ave., just steps from Michigan Ave. It's across from the Nordstrom building, past Labriola's, down some steps and about a block away located on the south side of the street. As soon as I walked in, and I wasn't expecting this but the restaurant was extremely loud and nearly every seat was taken and everybody seemed to be enjoying themself, families, couples and groups. I figured that was a good sign and it signaled to me that the food was probably good! At first, the host wanted me to sit at the bar, which I politely declined because I don't usually sit at bars, also, I was there to eat, not pick up somebody! I noticed a small table open, pointed it out, and he kindly let me take it. No 'tude either! As far as my server goes, she was efficient, friendly, and very helpful with recommendations since it was my first visit and probably because I didn't look like the other customers who were more familiar with the cuisine. She suggested the pot stickers over the hot and sour soup, and the beef Chow Fun instead of chicken Chow Fun. The pot stickers were a little small, but crispy and very tasty. I also asked for some sweet and sour sauce on the side which I'm glad I did because it paired nicely with the pot stickers instead of that plain vinegar sauce they usually serve you. For my main dish, I ordered the char-grilled beef Chow Fun. The portion size was more than generous, and the char-grilled beef had a great umami flavor. A few of the rice noodles were a bit firm, likely undercooked, but overall though it was quite enjoyable. What I appreciated the most about Shang Noodle was the value. $18 for the beef Chow Fun and $9 for the pot stickers felt reasonable to me, considering it was on the dinner menu, the portion sizes were humongous and the restaurant was located on the Near North Side, which is usually quite pricey. I'll definitely be back, though next time I may try lunch instead, or go with friends of mine.
