We visited Royal China frequently when we lived in New Orleans, so visiting Miss Shirley's new restaurant was a must when we were in town for a long weekend. We got there at 5 when they opened and the place was full in minutes. The space has been remodeled nicely with blue walls and gold accents. The vibe is classy Asian, and a large fish tank in the entry is reminiscent of Royal China. The cocktail menu was extensive and offered fun twists on classics. We ordered drinks and way too much food - soup, dumplings, chicken, pork belly, lo mein, and more. All of it was delicious and served with genuine hospitality. We had a great meal and will return when in town.

Miss Shirley in herself is an absolute gem and should be treasured by the entire city. Now with that I'm going to give a completely not biased review from a Chef who's gone to the best culinary school in the world and eaten at some of the best restaurants. Miss Shirley's is that special place I'll drive all the way from the Northshore because I can't think of anything but her egg rolls and amazing dumplings! The specials are always amazing she maintains creative and you can taste the love in every single bite. We are lucky to have this unique and traditional landmark to the melting pot that is New Orleans! Thank you for your continuous consistency and amazing food! We love you Miss Shirley! The service was impeccable thank you to the entire staff and as usual a beautiful space to dine and relax and feel at home away from home.

We like Miss Shirleys, Magazine St has so many little gems. It's hard to find decent Chinese Food outside of the big cities so manage your expectations. We had Shrimp Snow Pea Dumplings, Salt and Pepper Squid and Crispy Duck Wraps. All were delicious and filled us up. Miss Shirley is a delight and spends her time working the room making sure everyone is happy and they were. Did I mention I Love Dim Sum. The room s not too large and not too small and has a nice warm atmosphere.

Service was quick even when full. Food was super fresh and always steaming hot. As someone with a gluten sensitivity, they had a lot of options including the delicious egg rolls. Portion sizes are large so I recommend sharing and they are on the pricey side but very filling. Also got a complementary wonton and beignets Resturant is a bit small and tight, so I recommend getting there early because there was a wait when we left. Would go again!

This place has been here for so many years, but it never had a great reputation. It does seem to have one now. A lot of people go sometimes you have to wait in line to get in. I enjoyed it. Here's the problem I went for lunch had wonton soup and Kung pow chicken with rice and my bill was $36 And that's for lunch? So you were forewarned but if you love good Chinese food you really need to check it out.

Amazing!! The food was so good. Even though they were extremely busy the service was still good. I tried a little bit of everything. Everything I had was amazing. My favorites were the pork dumpling and the soup dumpling. It reminded me of the amazing food I had in China town in New York. Who knew I could get Chinese food that taste this good in New Orleans. The only thing that has kept me from going back is the wait to get seated. They always seem to be extremely busy. I hope that means they'll open a 2nd location soon.

Now this place has been recommended for quite a while, but every time I'm in New Orleans im wanting Cajun food. I finally had a want some Chinese and this place did NOT disappoint. We stopped in for lunch and man were the portions a perfect size. Mama Shirley comes by and checks on all the tables to make sure everyone is having a great meal. When we left, we heard that she will come by and offer different dishes to everyone in the restaurant, so we will have to make sure we stay for dinner so we can get that experience. Amazing place and fantastic food!

Miss Shirley's is such a delight every time I visit. It's cozy and very popular so it's always busy but the service is attentive and friendly. My friends and I ordered sooo much food because the menu has so many options and we wanted a taste of almost everything. We ordered the eggs rolls, shrimp fried rice, crab meat Shui Mai, shrimp dumplings, beef short ribs and sesame chicken. Everything was absolutely delicious and leftovers were great for lunch the next day. I can't wait to go back.

I needed some good Chinese since my last outing in NOLA was a bit of a disappointment. Let me tell you, Miss Shirley's got it on lockdown. After shuttering her last restaurant after an astonishing 40 years in business, she's back Uptown on the famed Magazine Street and serving delicious dishes once again. My bartender/server, Tim, is amazing. The kitchen is fast and creating not just delectable food but it's pretty. A little bit noisy inside but once you begin eating, you will drown out the din of everyone around you and be in your own world. I can't wait to return and try everything on the menu. They have plenty of veggie options and offer many gluten free options as well.
