Shanghai Garden

Recently moved to Union and wanted to try the closest Chinese restaurant. We support small businesses, tip very well even on pick up and do our due diligence when we can but this I'm hoping is a one off. We were able to find everything we usually get from a good Chinese restaurant which was a good start. Egg rolls, boiled dumplings, crab rangoon, beef lo mein, and garlic chicken combo with fried rice. The best and, I genuinely hate to say it, only good thing we got was the egg rolls. The boiled dumplings were hard to down. The surrounding noodle was too thick and dry and the filling was not appetizing. The crab rangoon which is a must where ever I go was absolutely awful. Never had a bad crab rangoon, including the frozen kind from Sam's Club but this was a first. The beef lo mein tasted like it was loaded with salt (maybe MSG?) It wasn't nearly as bad as the other items but wouldn't call it good. The fried rice I couldn't get past the first bite and my wife was able to stomach 2. The garlic chicken didn't have much flavor to speak of. I hope people try this for themselves and I hope we just got here at a bad night. I like to give the benefit of the doubt but we had to go back out for dinner because we couldn't finish this. Sorry owners and loyal customers, this just wasn't good.
