Shangri-La in West Bloomfield Township offers a more considered take on Chinese dining than the typical quick carryout spots. Situated on Orchard Lake Road, this is a full-service restaurant where the pace is relaxed enough for a sit-down meal but still approachable for casual dining. The atmosphere suggests a focus on the food rather than flashy décor — it’s the kind of place locals come to when they want authentic flavors without the formal stiffness of high-end venues.

The menu here is impressively broad, catering to those who appreciate traditional favorites alongside less common dishes. Dim sum is a highlight, available throughout the day and served in the classic style on rolling carts. This makes it easy to sample a variety of items like spicy quail dumplings, steamed chicken feet, and taro cake, especially for those who are familiar with Asian dining customs or eager to explore them. The portions lean generous, so it’s perfect for groups or families sharing plates.

Diners who prefer heartier entrées will find options such as roasted duck, Peking duck wraps, and hot pot casseroles loaded with seafood or meats. Many appreciate that ingredients feel fresh and well-prepared, which elevates the overall experience beyond what you might expect from local takeout places. Soups like hot and sour or wonton are reliable choices that round out a diverse meal.

People typically visit Shangri-La for a comfortable, no-pressure meal where authenticity and variety matter. It suits both those who grew up with this style of food and visitors curious about more regional Chinese dishes. Lunchtime and early dinner hours see a steady flow of diners, many choosing dim sum as a weekend treat, while weeknights tend to favor the cozy hot pot offerings.

While service is straightforward and efficient, the real draw is settling in with multiple dishes to share, experiencing flavors that range from mild and comforting to boldly spicy. Whether you’re coming in for classic sesame chicken or venturing into less familiar territory like steamed chicken with vegetables or beef balls with watercress, Shangri-La provides a welcoming setting to discover local Chinese cooking in the heart of West Bloomfield.

My experience at Shangri-la was great. We were looking for a bit of an upgrade from the normal Chinese cuisine we normally eat. Didn't want to go full on high end but wanted an upgrade over the quick stop carry-out options we frequent. Shangri-la was just what the doctor ordered. We could tell right away the ingredients are much fresher than we received from our normal go-to restaurant. Food was delivered to our table exceptionally fast. We will definitely be visiting this restaurant again. I had the Almond Chicken, my favorite, and the Orange Chicken.

A Hidden Gem for Authentic Flavors I recently dined and was thoroughly impressed by the overall experience. If you are looking for a place that offers a genuine taste of Chinese cuisine without breaking the bank, this is it. The Food & Menu The first thing that stands out is the extensive menu. They offer a fantastic spread that goes far beyond the standard options, featuring everything from traditional Dim Sum and hand-pulled noodles to bold. • Flavor: Every dish we ordered had incredible depth. • Freshness: The ingredients felt high-quality; the seafood was succulent and the vegetables were perfectly crisp. Service & Value The service was surprisingly efficient and warm. Even though the restaurant was busy, the staff remained attentive, ensuring our tea was topped up and the food arrived hot and fresh. For the quality and portion sizes provided, the pricing is very reasonable. It’s rare to find a place that balances such a "premium" taste with an affordable bill. While the food and service were excellent, the table spacing and noise levels could be improved. During peak hours, the dining area feels quite cramped and the acoustics make it difficult to have a quiet conversation. A bit more room between tables or some sound-absorbing decor would make the atmosphere as perfect as the food.

Excellent Chinese restaurant. We came for Din Sum which if you've never tried, please do! When I lived in Asia I loved going out for it. Don't worry about what to order, the menu on the table has pictures which help you know.

Authentic dim sum in the heart of West Bloomfield, delivered to tables on traditional carts. It's an experience, but what really makes it worth it is the food. Just make sure you remember that each order is 3-4 pieces, or you'll end up out of room on the table like we did the first time we went. Quick service and great food.

Nice place to have some dim sum (all day) and other tasty dishes on the menu! We decided to not only having some dim sum items, but also ordered Congee (preserved eggs and porks), salted fish and chicken fried rice, half roasted duck, and spicy quails which all theses 4 ordered items were outstanding. As for the dim sum items: some are really Good (chicken feet,) while other are bland and tasted above average (beef balls with water creat wasn’t that good); Overall, we enjoyed our lunch here, and like the speedy customer service and food availability! If we are in town again, we will be back.

The food is consistent for the 30 years I have been frequenting. I appreciate they are open ALOT! I spend all my holidays there. I would love to see it get an upgrade. I would also like sriracha to be back for the dim sum- the chili oil is great... but would be nice variety again!
