Shanghai lily - Regina

Nice place, delicious food, good local family-owned business. Take out did not take long at all. If you live in Cathedral, easy place to walk to get food.

Great place if you want fresh authentic chinese cuisine, dined in many times ordered out multiple times as well, always amazing!WARNING: This is real asian cuisine not wok box or the like, if you come here looking for that you will be disappointed. I know some people can't handle real asian food and are used to westernized versions so you have been warned.If you are wanting to try the least risky menu items as a newcomer I would recommend the chicken fried rice as it's the best in the city by far, delicious! Or the kung pao chicken with steamed rice if you enjoy spicy, but be warned they come with full chili peppers, don't eat them unless you really love spice!Super friendly married couple as owners, very nice daughter and 2 cats around to pet before and after your meal! Maybe skip this place if you are scared of cats or have bad allergies.And again, I see some negative reviews complaining about food taste, if you are looking for westernized chinese you will not find it here! This is not popcorn chicken dipped in sweet and sour sauce everything is homemade by the lovely wife in the kitchen as authentically as possible.

Best dim sum ever! Such a wonderful, sweet family that runs the place and all our food was fresh and cooked to order. If you like gross, westernized buffet style food, this won't be for you. But if you like real, delicious, and home cooked, then this is the spot! I will definitely be making the 4 hour drive to Regina just for them!

I have never been disappointed by Shanghai Lily. The bbq pork buns and the soup dumplings are both incredible. I don't believe there is any other place to get soup dumplings in Regina and even if there was it's hard to believe they could be better than these. Shanghai noodles and ginger beef are also good but I generally order from the dim sum menu. Everything seems to be cooked to order so sometimes there is a bit of a wait but well worth it.

This is a special place ..the husband n wife owners are welcoming and friendly..I feel like family when I'm in there company..the food is fresh n authentic Chinese food..remember good..freshly prepared food takes time..but it's worth it
