My Shangai never let's you down. Our family and friends all love it and we always try to find time to visit when we holiday in Northumberland. If you can't find what you want then I would be surprised, as the buffet choice is extensive and constantly replenished. Prices have gone up a little, but compared to a lot of places in the county still represent great value.

I am very disappointed in this restaurant. Me and my friends were meant to pay child prices and they charged us 20+ pounds based on our weight. Why are we paying more based on our height and weight. We are children (under the age of 18). The staff called us large people so we had to pay adult price. Also the way the staff were speaking to us was VERY rude. 0/10 experience and the food wasn’t even all that.

Arrived there at 12.15 a few people in we were offered a choice of tables then a drink and were told to help ourselves. There was plenty of choice and was all steaming hot,we couldn't fault any of the food on offer and we ended with a couple of fruit salads.The staff were attentive but not overbearing, all in all a good experience we will return,thanks again

don't bother reading the other reviews. this is the honest truth .... booked a table for 19.00. not a problem sat down ordered drinks served straight away. then to the food plenty of variety all piping hot for the price well worth it 47 pound for two people with a coke and a large mineral water, 3 plates of piled high food each and 2 deserts each. food was constantly being topped up. everything was spot on . yes the place could do with a bit of paint on the walls in a few places but it didn't spoil the food. there was other people sat around us and i heard only one complaint about the chocolate ice cream ....not to their licking the strawberry was good.

Not a regular attendee. Food was hot and plentiful, staff topping up food regularly. Prices gone up since our last visit, £14.95 I think it was for lunch. To be fair, I thought it was still worth it.

Food was vile. Wouldnt serve it to my fog. The prawn shells were all dried out so they had been hanging around for a long time. The chicken in the curry was so soft it cant have been chicken no texture like chicken. Noodles over cooked. Rice unpleasant.

Visited a few times with my partner, both vegetarians. We always go earlier in the day as we feel the late night prices are pushing it a bit for what’s available. There are some good veggie options but unfortunately not a huge variety. Mainly spring rolls, a dish of vegetables which do taste amazing, one or two noodle dishes, rice and I can’t really remember much else being there. The food is usually hot and does taste good. The staff are always welcoming! My rating of 3/5 is because for a buffet it’s just average. Some more variety in food options and a bit more flavour would greatly improve this buffet.

We used to visit here quite often and my wife decided she would like to return as it was our anniversary. Food was like warm in most instances with a limited range. Only "English" food I saw was roast beef slices. I discussed with the manager the lack of the Tapenyaki grill to which he answered that the hot plate did not get hot enough to act as a Full Tapenyaki and hadn't for some time. ( He may deny this statement with hindsight) In short they had 5 pre prepared dishes to which they would add various meats, YUK.All in all a very disappointing visit as they have gone the way of oriental buffets before them and started to cut down on the quality and variation of there offerings, spare ribs being an example in point, only 1 choice which was very salty and was more rib than meat.This was all on their GRAND BUFFET @ £13.50pp. We wont be back!

went on Tuesday afternoon and there was only 1 other table in the restaurant plenty of choice of food , some of which was piping hot others were lukewarm cant complain for £7.50 but was a bit dubious about how long some of the food had been there hardly any of the desserts available due to afternoon buffet , even though the menu doesnt mention this probably wouldnt go back as there are better restaurants for buffets in Newcastle

Avoid at all costs!!! Kids got in around half 4, and we paid up front for the meals @£8.60 per head x 8 - this was paid for 16:41pm and kids not ate yet. We got a call at 17:40 to collect the kids as they have been kicked out. We went back and spoke to the staff who sed they had to set the tables for the next Buffet but sed they could finish off their drinks in the bar area!!!! So if you are having food and it’s close to the next buffet time- be warned you might get chucked off the table!!! Absolute disgrace- took our money but cudnt wait to get them out. One of the lads only ate 4 chicken nuggets- expensive nuggets!!!WONT BE COMING HERE AGAIN- SPOILT MY SONS BIRTHDAY MEAL WITH FRIENDS- even no apology or offer to refund some of the money!!!! RIP OFF!!! Got their money and cudnt wait to get them off the table!!!

My Shanghai is like an Asian transport cafe / truck stop for people who want to pile their plates high with mediocre food as they think they are getting a bargain. The hot and sour soup was inedible for me and the the lack of sushi choice left me disappointed. The picture of sushi in the reviews here was taken years ago and even then it was bought in and not made in house. See attached picture for current sushi selection. Staff friendly and polite but I will not be returning. After my visit, several local people said I should have asked them first and they would have told me not to bother. Not for me!!

Eat as much as you want from the wide selection of sumptuous Chinese dishes or traditional Sunday lunch for a set per head, great value price. Really satisfying.

My mum wanted to celebrate her 80th birthday at My Shanghi. She goes every other Sunday but it was her Birthday. We asked if we could hang birthday banners and balloons, Michael one of the Managers said that was fine. We arrived early to do this. We where in a private room. Michael asked if we needed some white tac or scissors. They where very helpful. When the guests arrived they where shown to the room we where in. As usual the food was brilliant. Some of the party guests had never been to My Shanghi and didn't know what it was like. Everyone enjoyed it and said they would go back. Michael the other manager worked out the bill and it didn't cost as much as we expected. Again a plus for My Shanghi. Just give it a try you might like it as much as we do.

We weren't very impressed this time we went to my shanghai on a visit to see family in the area. We have been quite a few times in the past but this time the price had risen dramatically. The quality of the food wasn't as good and we both had dodgy tummies afterward. On the positive side there was more choice of puddings so that was nice. It wasn't awful but a bit disappointing.

It's simply a buffet in the mid range market, it's not your high end asian food banquet style food it's more your take away food but in buffet style. If your like me and like to try everything then they do small soup bowls you don't have to fill your boots and leave, I prefer to use the small bowls and try a little of everything and take my time, if you like to fill your boots however fell free you can do that as well. one of the best things about it is you can be there for 20 minuets or for 4 hours it depends on you and what you want your experience to be. Price ,i would say fair price for what it is (which isn't bad to be honest) The staff are usually very friendly and helpful, worth a visit in my opinion.

As usual when I visit my family i always ask to go to My Shanghi. My family go about twice a month. The place was crowded but we had booked. This was a Sunday. I asked for tap water and recieved it with ice brilliant. I am disabled so needed my niece to help me with getting my food. It was a good job she was there. What a great selection. On Sunday they do a Sunday dinner as well as the Chinese buffet. The Sunday dinners are ok but the mince and dumpling are really lovely. I decided to try the slices of beef in gravy, the beef was so nice and easy to cut and chew. The Chinese buffet bit is nice with everything coming out so we have a full menu to try every time . My sister always has the seaweed on her meal. She thinks it's just cabbage grated and fried but we are not sure. She always has it so it must be ok. After you fill up on dinner it's pudding time. Lots of ice cream, jelly, cake, lots of different fruit and rice pudding. I'm happy with that choice. Oh and they also have a salad bar which looks lovely but I never have it as it's a Chinese buffet so I want Chinese food. My niece always has the salad and says it's lovely with lots of choice. It does look nice. All in all a lovely meal. I will be back on my next visit up North.

Good range of choice, layout is more like a busy cafe than a relaxed restaurant. Lots and lots of children, however it was early evening on a weekend. Would be willing to go back at a quieter time. Staff were lovely, especially with how rude some of the customers were with them. Only complaint was the tiled floor was very sticky, like it needed a fresh mop over. Excellent dessert choice.

I spontaneously had the desire for an all-you-can-eat Chinese the other day and so we decided to try here as we drive past all the time. We went for the grand buffet which is the evening one and I think it’s about £12.60 per person. I think the food was pretty good, there was a reasonable amount of choice but I do feel buffets in the city centre of Newcastle have larger variety . I think it’s certainly worth giving it a go, and I also had a lovely glass of Savignon blanc!

It was on a fine wednesday afternoon when our party of 12 ventured out to this establishment to have luncheon.There was a heated debate about the quality of the coleslaw amongst our group. Although most of the food was nice the knifes were too blunt to cut pork and chicken nuggets. there was a distinctive lack of veggie food and the cutlery was cheap stainless steal instead of silverware, along with cheap pint glasses. the curry sauce lacked flavor, the noodles were bland and the spring roles were ghastly. Tongs were too hot and we had to use a napkin to avoid severe burns. the ice cream isn't the best, but led to an insightful debate over the merits of chocolate or vanilla ice cream. I was horrified to discover the rice pudding was stored in the same place as cold desserts, WHO LIKES COLD RICE PUDDING?! Although the floor was like an ice rink the price was very good and the food mostly good.

Came here for a friend's birthday, not really my thing. Had some chips and onion rings, which were fine, as well as some ice cream and a bit of a crumble. I wouldn't return simply because I'm not into this sort of food. If the sushi was better presented I might've tried that but it looked like it was falling apart. No idea if it was veggie. Although the rest of my group had many plates of food, the general consensus was that it was average at best and didn't share an interest in returning.

I dont know if its any different from through the week or sat as they have a Sunday dinner: with chicken,beef and gamman with the trimmers. It was just ok don't think i would have that again. The buffet was nice and hot plenty to choose from. Didn't have any salad but looks nice enough and plenty. Could do with more deserts not that much to choose from more fruit needed. It does need the chairs upgraded some seemed old and hagged. It was nice enough i would go again if passing wouldn't go out my way like we did from Gateshead

Heard really good things about this place so thought we’d give it a go, but if I’m honest I was completely underwhelmed. The food was edible but clearly not fresh, it’s hard to describe but some of the food had that weird frozen and then defrosted tastes. There wasn’t a great selection and the food wasn’t very hot. Some of the desserts were ok but nothing special. Again the profiteroles clearly weren’t fresh and the cream inside had a almost sour taste and the little tubes of ice cream are he same ones you get when your in hospital. I have to say I certainly won’t be in a hurry to go back. Been to better places like this and paid less. Not very good value for money.

We ate here because our daughter likes the place. The price for the amount of food you could actually eat was cheap but the food wasn't as hot as other restaurants that have food in heated containers. The meats were nice but the desserts were either tinned fruit, tasteless cake or tasteless ice cream. The frozen melon was ok but still a bit lazy and without imagination.

This was my first visit To 'My Shanghai' but it will not be my last for the choice and quality of food at lunchtime was excellent. The staff were efficient and friendly. If I lived closer I would be in there every day for its that good. Many thanks from Ken.

Plenty of food and it tasted ok. Price ok This venue lacks atmosphere but ok for what it is. My grandson enjoyed his meals and I enjoyed what I had but it seemed to get eaten way to fast😩😩 Free on site parking

Visited this week and am always impressed with the choice of food. We paid around £15 each for the grand buffet and a soft drink which isn’t bad. Food is regularly topped up and they have a good selection of deserts too. Service is good with the waiters coming around efficiently asking to take away your plate.

Food was fresh and there was plenty choice. Chicken, pork, beef, egg , sushi, mushrooms etc. There was a good choice of desert as well, some cream would have been nice for the cake etc. The live cooking station was not on during our visit. We would go back if we were in the area.

I've been here a few times and having nothing negative to say. Food was all amazing and a good variety. I'm quite fussy so a buffet gives me the opportunity to try small amounts of new dishes and I've definitly found a few I'll have in the future. My only recommendation would be maybe an unlimited soft drink option that many places offer now.

We passed this place a few weeks past , wondered what it was like . But in the area adding from north Northumberand and decided to give it a try .Normally £7.60 , £8.60 as it was bank holiday plus £2.80 for a large coke each , bill was £ 22. 80 for both of us . Now to the food . Food was nice and hot great selection of starters , including prawn cracker and crispy seaweed . I had a small sample of majority of chineese starter no chips etc . Good selection of main meals very tasty very hot well cooked . Kept going back for crispy seaweed with everything as it was very tasty . Nice !. Had a small sample of majority of main meals all very nice . There is a salad bar and cold shreded vegies . Good selection . Pudding bar plus ice cream . Staff very attentive and place was spotless . Tables cleared quickly and cleaned with antiseptic spray when people had finished their meals . Good to see that . I used gents toilet which was clean and well maintained . With hot water and soap . That's important to me . All in all , well worth the money and we will return . Resturant was fairly busy and staff coped no problem . Many thanks My Shanghai for a nice lunch at table 2 .

Nice place for families. Sushi by the bucket load. Good food. Would visit again. Good turnover of the buffet food too so it stayed hot and was fresh

We've done My Shanghai several times now with a few months in between each visit. That said the food and staff have been consistently good. On each visit the restaurant has been busy, despite this there's always been more than ample food on offer. The selections are many and varied, even delicious rhubarb crumble and custard. Salads and deserts are also plentiful. Everything was tasty and well presented, staff were polite and attentive. A very enjoyable Chinese dining experience.

we came here the other week, we had heard bad rumours about this place but it was actually a very enjoyable restaurant, nice polite staff and the food was tasty, obviously with it being a buffet it wasn’t amazing! But it was nice and for value for money it was definitely worth it. I really enjoyed it.

Decent selection of food available on an afternoon at a very reasonable price. The main teppayaki station isn't open through the day but there is still a good selection to choose from.

Called for tea, fri nite at 6pm. 2 adults, 2 pints coke = £30.80. Hubby had loads of meaty dishs- ribs/beef/prawns/mussels, i mostly ate veggie. Crispy duck was good quality. It was all hot & was replenished often. Normal food for a chinese buffet. Inc english = onion rings/chips. Desserts far better than most i have seen. Eclairs/Profiteroles were lovely. 3 flavs of icecream - strawb/vanilla/choc. Staff friendly, plates collected superfast.Will return when next in the area.
