My wife and I are fairly new to Phoenix and have been enjoying exploring all types of restaurants all over the area. I personally love Chinese buffets but have found many in Phoenix sub par to what I"ve experienced in Denver and Chicago. However the Shanghai is the exception. The seafood offerings are very good with a wide variety of shrimp dishes, clams, fresh oysters and mussels (which I would prefer cooked in a black bean sauce) The barbecue ribs are spot on! They is plenty of other non seafood dishes that please my wife, who unlike me is not a seafood nut. Sushi is okay and the desert bar is on par with other buffets. Give it a try on Friday, Saturday and Sunday nights.
