I would give this place 4/5 . Food taste fresh, chowmein was tasty and my first time ordering spicy orange chicken was good. Price was similar to other Chinese restaurants. We went around 1:30 so no lunch rush hour . Ambiance was normal for fast food Chinese place. read more

Chinese food is decent Forsure it's the best in the area I have tasted by far it's pretty cheap and good for the price

This place has been around forever. My mom used to get me chinese food from this place once a week when I was a teenager. Anyways, many years later, I decided to stop by to grab dinner. I was helped right away, and went with combo 1, chow mein, fried rice and 1 other item. Everything was delicious and portions were huge and plentiful for the price. read more

Shanghai Express - Combo 1 and an egg roll - Chinese Near Me - Moreno Valley, California

Buyer Beware... My family use to love this place but lately their food has declined .. Today we asked for BBQ Chicken and when I got it .. It looked like Beef Jerky .. the chicken tasted off .. we also ordered a Wong Tong soup .. Only to be disappointed that one of the Wong tongs tasted spoiled .. I called and was offered replacement food but after seeing how bad the food is .. I'll just take a loss .. Btw the picture is of the BBQ Chicken .. you be the judge .. I spent $40 on food we didn't even eat .. read more

Shanghai Express - BBQ Chicken that looks like old beef jerky - Chinese Near Me - Moreno Valley, California

After reading several comments, the food is not tasty who ever said this spot is good eats garbage and doesn't know what good food is!!!!! The place looks clean and you would think it's a good spot but is not Ordered barbecue chicken but tasted like mystery meat. It was freshly made but didn't taste like it Same for the chow mein was fresh but was lacking flavor Wouldn't recommend this spot even if was free!!!! Mr. You down the street is worth you money not this place read more

High quality delicious food. Kind people. Clean environment. I'll be back soon. Thank you so much.

The food here is delicious!!! And the ladies are amazing! We came here about 3 weeks ago and got the whole family combo plates. They must have thought we were crazy because I sure did when I saw how much food they stuff into the plates. We ordered 5 combos and were able to feed 6 pple for lunch and dinner. read more

Employee was walking behind the counter eating food with her bare hands and then started handling my food. On top of that she was extremely rude! Only got a star because I couldn't post without one. read more

Walked in to being rushed on picking entrees and the place was empty. The greasiest Chinese food I have ever had. I purchased 3 of their 2 item combos. I ate it about 5 hours ago and my stomach hurts. The food appeared to be sitting all day. You would think by 5 there would be fresh food for dinner. Out of the different entrees I purchased, they all tasted the same so it seems the same sauce was used for all of them. If anyone claims this place to be great, they have never had good Chinese takeout. This is garbage. read more

I LOVE Chinese food, and this is a great spot in Moreno Valley if you're looking for some to-go Asian cuisine. Walking in, I was a little confused as to where was ordered. There was a small sign for Grubhub showing where to pick up orders but no large "Order here" sign like most places. I was promptly greeted by a young lady who asked me what I'd like to order and that cleared up my confusion. As soon as you walk in there's a break in the sneeze guard where the line would typically start (there was no line when I walked in). I ordered a 2 item with half and half. For my first item I decided to go with my typical broccoli beef. I was having a little trouble deciding between orange chicken and mushroom chicken so I asked the lady helping me and she informed me that the mushroom chicken was one of their top items and I should probably try that. She said she doesn't care too much for mushroom chicken but she loves the mushrooms here and the sauce everything is cooked in is delicious, so naturally I went with the mushroom chicken. After that was plated, she said I should also try one of the beef egg rolls. I was originally planning on ordering my typical spring rolls, but who am I to argue with someone who works here and can tell what I like? Out the door with a 2 item and 1 beef egg roll total was $11.85 (59¢) card charge. Let's get into the good stuff: -Broccoli beef. This place has my absolute favorite thing, thinly sliced beef that is so tender it almost melts in my mouth. And the sauce is an almost perfect blend of sweet and savory. The carrots and broccoli could have used just a tad longer to be cooked, but the overall flavor was great. -Mushroom chicken. WOW. The flavor really was great on this, truly one of the best servings of mushroom chicken I've had from a takeout place. The mushrooms are amazingly cooked and don't give me that "mushy" texture I don't care for. And the sauce really was a great savory, almost curry like flavor that paired well with the zucchini and the tender chicken. -Chow Mein. Relatively standard for chow mein. I would say it was a little heavy on the pepper, so beware of that if you're picky with your pepper (I am talking black ground pepper, not Jalapeños or anything spicy). -Fried Rice. Also fairly standard fried rice. A tad dry but I didn't expect anything grand. I usually soak mine in soy sauce and leftover sauce from my items anyway so this was still great. -Beef Egg Roll. Some people might not care for these as there isn't a whole lot of beef. I'm not sure why I was expecting a Filipino Lumpia, but that's not what I got haha. Picture more a large spring roll with bits of ground beef throughout. That's pretty much what these are, and the flavor is great with their sweet and sour sauce. All in all a great experience, and I can't wait to be back to try some orange chicken! read more

Should have followed my first mind today. The food was cold when I got home, it tasted old. My egg rolls seem like they'd been sitting for a while. must be under new management because the food is usually great. Not going back. First time shame on you, second time shame on ME. Go at your own risk read more

Absolutely the best Chinese food in Moval! I am not easily impressed and I can say this is awesome food! You get a lot too. Everyone so nice there too! So clean and delicious!!!! read more

Best Chinese food in town!! I'm from up north and moved here a year ago, finally found the best in town.

Look I'm gonna be honest I have lived in Moreno Valley for 8 years and about a year ago I finally found my Chinese food place here in the city and I loved this place so much until today because the first thing that happened when I opened my plate was I found the head of a cockroach. I was so excited to eat my food but now I'm just disgusted. read more

Shanghai Express - Cockroach - Chinese Near Me - Moreno Valley, California

Very slow service. They give priority to the online orders. Was waiting in line for over 15 minutes just being ignored. There's enough Chinese food places in town with a lot better service read more

We have been here before. The food is doable like most fast food joints. Today he ordered a Combo A which is 1 entree with fried rice or chow mein. For his entree, he ordered the house special which is saucy chicken dish with jalapeños and black pepper. It has a nice kick to it but like with all of their other dishes, it's missing creativity. I ordered the taro boba. I've had better bobas. The ice needs a bit more blending. Service has always been friendly and the venue is clean. read more

Definitely good food for cheap. Always friendly and pack heavy! Can't wait to go back for more :)

I don't know who is giving this place good reviews but it was the worst Chinese food I've EVER had! First of all, I ordered the shrimp in lobster sauce which has to be made specially in the back, it's not the pre made stuff they have out already to make the combos. So that's fine, meanwhile I ordered a 2 item combo. I was really hungry and wanted to have leftovers for later. I got BBQ pork, Kung Pao chicken and then half fried rice and half chow mein. The BBQ pork was so dry that I had a hard time swallowing it, I cannot express in words just how dry it was, it was more like BBQ pork jerky. The Kung Pao chicken had almost no flavor or spice and the rice and chow mein tasted the same and was very bland as well. I waited for about half an hour for my "shrimp with lobster sauce" I get it and go to my car. I decided to have a couple bites before going home to eat it. When I opened the "shrimp with lobster sauce" I discovered that it was just a large bowl of egg flower soup! I walked back in and told them that was not what I ordered. The lady told me that this is the "shrimp with lobster sauce"! It most certainly was not! As you can see in the pic, it's egg drop or egg flower soup. The picture of shrimp with lobster sauce that have on the wall shows the shrimp with peas and carrots with a creamy sauce over rice. The picture here is what I got. After arguing with me and telling me that I was wrong she finally gave me my money back and told me to throw it away. I didn't want to waste food so I kept it anyways. The best part of my meal was my can of Coke that I got there which I was thankful for getting because for one it helped me wash the dry pork down my throat and also helped me realize that my ability to taste was ok and it was just that the food was bland and lacked flavor and that I didn't have Covid and loose my sense of taste! I will never eat here again and I would literally recommend ANY other place than this one! read more

Shanghai Express - "Shrimp with Lobster sauce" - Chinese Near Me - Moreno Valley, California

Food was ok, would recommend this place if you are hungry and want something quick. I stopped by because I wanted something fast the service was decent but one thing that was frustrating was that I was charged $1 for a soda refill and there was no sign for it. They have a sign for everything else of course told the lady they should have one up read more

The food was excellent! However that's how much I got it a "two item." The place was dead at 5:30 so it's not like they were running low. read more

Shanghai Express - This is how much I got for a "two" item. Cost me $10 for some rice. - Chinese Near Me - Moreno Valley, California

SAVE urself the disappointment of eating a meal of SLOP. I took a chance but lost!...2 item combo the meat was horrible. Just as i suspected. Old stuff.. would have been more satisfied with a cheeseburger combo. Dont waste your money.I can see why they have so little turnover...= lots of food getting old from just sitting there....If ur a big person good luck tryin to sit in those cramped chinese bench seats. read more

Came here today for dinner about 6 pm and it was empty. I asked for a 1 item combo with half rice & half veggies (instead of chow mein) and an entree of teriyaki chicken. The workers couldn't communicate in English, one was telling me that she could give me vegetables as the entree, but it would take some time to cook them, another was trying to give me rice, chow mein & veggies as my meal. I'm not paying $9-$10 to eat rice and veggies. Anyway, I couldn't get what I wanted. At Panda Express, Mr. Yu's, and essentially any Chinese takeout place has servings of mixed vegetables for anyone who wants less carbs, so I'm not sure why that was so difficult to accommodate. I was most frustrated because they couldn't communicate in English and I've never had that happen any Chinese or Asian restaurant ever. Then, they charged me an extra $.60 for using my credit card. Poor service, poor selection of entrees, poor communication, I definitely would never come here again. It was the worst Chinese takeout experience I've ever had, and I have Chinese food frequently. After this experience, I realized I should have just gone to Subway or Del Taco. read more

We tried this place for the 1st time they are very friendly and food was very delicious. Finally found a spot .

You should definitely come here if you want good Chinese food and a ton of food. Their portion sizes are beyond worth the price and getting the "combo 3" will result in left overs. Enjoy! read more

5 stars for all the following reasons Cheap prices, with good quality food and huge portions (still love Panda Express though) its right by my house, they serve different kind of bobas and i really think their fried rice and chow mein is better than most of the fast food Chinese American joints out here. I'm big on sticking to local mom and pops so i will be coming here more often read more

got the combo 2 with sweet and sour chicken and mushroom chicken. didn't fulfill my craving for a british chinese as an american . Overall not very good flavor, but the coconut pineapple smoothie is great, sweet but still good read more

My husband and I love this place. We always order the chow Mein, fried rice and orange chicken with egg rolls. Their portions are big and it always hits the spot. read more

Been here before and the food is good but just walked in and seen a rat inside the place and they said cause people open the door. Not coming here again. Plus workers picking up the phone and not washing hands before serving food! All bad. read more

When it comes to Chinese food, I'm so picky about the noodles. Their noodles are so flavorful as well as the rest of there food.

This is not Shanghainese food; show me at least one from your menu. I lived in Shanghai for years, trust me, none of this food would be recognizable in Shanghai...misleading to say this is not real Shanghainese food. read more

Food portion was good, they charge .60c for card transactions and I paid cash. I paid cash and I was still charged those extra .60cents. I got home was eating and then bam! There was a human nail on my food. Stay away from here. The quality of everything just went to shit here read more

Great massage! Great location! One hour for twenty-five bucks. Ten minutes of a back massage read more

This was my first time coming here in many years and I have to say the food was almost perfect. I got the fried rice which could have been grainier, noodles were perfect, orange chicken was tasty and crispy, bbq beef was well done and easy to chew. Maybe I went at a good time around 4-6pm or maybe they just have some good chefs. I don't know but I will for sure be coming here again instead of any other nearby places with similar food. read more

This is by far my favorite Chinese aside from panda in Moreno Valley! I love the steamed vegetables they make fresh for me every time! Nice size portions for cheap! read more

Fresh full flavor food.....not sure how authentic it is but it tastes good not a place to dine in, kinda small and gets busy. They're really fast, friendly and helpful when ordering your food. Decor needs some help and maybe more food options to upgrade the place. BBQ pots and orange chicken are the bomb!!! read more

Have been here before and it was clean, today I went in and none of the staff was wearing gloves. I won't be back.

I love this place!! It's so good and not pricey at all! It's located in a very sketchy area, but that's not stopping me from coming here! Staff here are very friendly! I love their chow mein and orange chicken, their beef & broccoli isn't bad either! Very tasty! EVERYTHING. They have seating inside, so it's not just takeout. This place is pretty clean too! I am forever faithful to this place! read more

Well what can I say. You pay for what you get. Customer service is quite obnoxious. They keep grilling you about certain food so they don't have to throw it out. How about you give some extra food for paying customers closer to the end of the day, that would be a better marketing technique in my opinion. I wouldn't go back to this place. The food gave me the runs. For Chinese food you have to go to higher end establishments. read more

I'm not from here so I was looking around for the nearest Chinese food place, ran into this place and was highly disappointed. Everything was blan. I had the orange chicken bowl. The dish as a whole wasn't fresh. I could tell by the breeding of the chicken it was soggy and most of it had barely chicken in it! It was just fried batter in sauce over a bed of basic rice. The servers were nice and it was clean I'll give them that. read more

Food was tasteless, I've had better from Panda. The chow mein and rice tasted the same, as did the orange chicken and sweet sour chicken. There was a little boy in there, running around and coughing on everything, laying all over the tables, and going back and forth from the kitchen. That alone grossed me out and made me not want to eat there, but I wasn't alone so I didn't want to bother the rest of my party. Go elsewhere! read more
