    Great little Chinese place. We've been here twice for lunch and the food was very good. Portions were huge and service was friendly and fast. I can't comment on whether the fortune cookies are accurate.

    Well decorated, peaceful dining area.

    I dined in. It was quiet despite 4 or five other groups of customers. Great service, sat quickly. They have a full bar; I chose wine. Diverse menu and the food platters are large. I had a spicy chicken veggie combo. It was delicious. The spring rolls were also good. My waitress was attentive throughout. I drink lots of ice water and it was full all the time. I appreciated that. This is a solid option for good Chinese fare!

    Well, work has me in Monte Vista Colorado for an entire week. I decided to try something different but was staying in since I have to pack. Was in the mood for chinese. Monte Vista is an extremely small town, so this was the only chinese game in town. Although the reviews weren't half bad so I thought I would give it a go. The food was delivered to my room, and it was still extremely hot when I served myself. I wasn't going out at all today, so I ordered beef and broccoli and pepper steak. One for lunch and one to reheat for dinner. Boy, was I extremely surprised. The flavor to bother was just delicious. I am extremely happy with both of my orders. For those staying here at the Best Western, I highly recommend the food from China Graden.

    Friendly staff/owners. Fast service, generous portions. Great prices and decent Chinese staple food. Had the dinner combo w hot sour soup, chow mein and steamed rice.

    Enjoyed a quick bite here. We ate early so we had the place to ourselves when we arrived (people…read morewere starting to trickle in as we left.) Big menu... sushi, teriyaki, noodle bowls, salads, etc etc We had tom kha gai (coconut soup with chicken), salmon teriyaki and red curry. Soup had good flavor, lots of chicken & plenty of veggies. Salmon was tasty with carrots, cabbage & broccoli. Red curry was VERY GOOD! The star of the show tonight. We drained every drop! Seasoned well for us...a touch of heat and very flavorful. Sadly, no room for dessert... I was eying the Sticky Rice. ;) The table next to us ordered lots of sushi as we were leaving & had obviously been here before. :) Would definitely eat here again!

We didn't get a very peaceful dinner due to the souped-up motors, but it was mostly enjoyable. My significant other and I agree that the sushi place down the street is just a little bit better, but not by much. This place used to exist across the street and further down the road. I verified that with our friendly and efficient host/waiter. Here was our supper of the things I actually tried: Spring rolls ($5.95) - they were okay. My daughter who ordered them wasn't a fan. Crab rangoon - good ($5.95) Egg rolls - really good ($5.95) Mince pork noodle soup - it tasted decent, but I can see why my daughter preferred her pork not minced ($10.95) Top Model roll - very tasty ($15.95) Thai iced tea - way too sweet for me. I didn't even have boba ($3.95). Taro boba tea - not too sweet. The boba was nice & chewy ($5.50). I'd go here again if a friend chose the spot. I'd stick to sushi. No rice noodles for me!

Like most Chinese restaurants, it is mediocre at best. I haven't eaten at many Chinese restaurants over the past 25 year because of the lack of flavor and ingenuity. San Francisco has a couple of good Chinese restaurants and there is Tommy Wok's in Sausalito (at least, as of 2010), but other than that, I am continually disappointed. Shang Hai has very good reviews like many of the restaurants in Pagosa Springs, but the food is not worth the 4.2 rating. We had the Beef and Black Pepper, the Happy Family (Shrimp) and the Sweet and Sour Pork. The restaurant's menu forgot to mention that The Beef and Black Pepper was about 50% meat and 50% green peppers (by weight). In fact, there was no mention of green peppers. On top of having an inordinate amount of green peppers, the peppers were flavorless. The shrimp was okay. There was nothing special about it. The Sweet and Sour Pork was okay. It had too much sugar and not enough sour. Again, the dish was bland. Except for the person seating us (I believe it was one of the owners) we had a good experience with the two servers we had. They had good attitudes and were professional. If you are craving Chinese, I believe this is the only one in town. I cannot recommend Shang Hai Chinese Restaurant.

Prices have been raised and what once was included in a hibachi lunch is now extra. Yeah, so they raised the prices a couple bucks on all entrees BUT now you DO NOT get soup, salad or the yum yum sauce included - it is all ala carte. So that couple bucks extra is for MUCH less. If you want what you once got included you will pay +$2 per entree and then +$3.50 for the salad, +$2.50 for onion soup (the yum yum was extra too, but we didn't get it so now sure on pricing). $8 price increase for the hibachi lunch! OUTRAGEOUS!!! Now that was annoying enough, but the quality was lower too! The light japanese fried rice is now loaded down with onions (not the light leeks that once speckled it). My chicken was tough. The hubby's filet was tender, but something changed with it too because he said it just wasn't the same. The veggie mix was kind of light too and filled with bok choy - which is fine, but I don't want a pile of cabbage as my side. They do not emphasize the changes. They are simply whited out on the menu. It is a great disappointment to a once beloved place. I am sure the once or twice a year my mother comes we might stop in, but it is out of our rotation. Too expensive and not as good as it once was.
