Shanghai Gourmet 51 North 12th Street, Philadelphia, PA 19107

"Unfriendly staff, food is not that great and the portions are miniscule for the price. Everything is served in a six inch reuseable plastic container, props for that! I ordered a shrimp dish consisting of 8 shrimp, I laughed a little when the "cook" counted them in the container a total of four times to make sure there was eight and not an inch of a shrimp more...or...benefit of the doubt, maybe he was making sure I was getting the intended 8 and not 7, who knows. I couldn't help but walk away laughing."

"Excellent food and service! And you can eat your food on some comfy bar stools at their counter which is super helpful during the lunch rush.Highly recommend"

"Today was my first time trying this place out. I couldn't decide what I wanted to eat from Reading Terminal Market and then noticed them. The guy that took my order was very friendly. My order also came out after only just a few minutes. It was soooo good!! The veggie lo mein definitely exceeded my expectations and it was great for the price also!"

"After walking around many time I couldn’t deny my craving for shrimp dumplings. What a bargain! I also ordered a dumpling soup, Such a great broth perfect for me. The sesame chicken was a comfort and just what we needed."

"Good selection for lunch. You get a lot more for your money here. My favorite is the Shanghai Shrimp, spicy shrimp over rice with vegetables. Lunch is always busy which tells you a lot about this place. Try to get here just before lunch. If there is an event at the Convention Center, just get your door to go."
