Shagri-La Restaurant - Red Deer, Alberta

2 years ago: Most dishes were good/very good (Shanhai beef, some fried chicken dish, and vermicelli) but one noodle dish was very greasy (tasted like stale oil). It's in a motel and when you walk in, you are greeted with mildewy/stale smoky stench. The bathroom had a tiny bar ... of soap which probably was a left over from a motel room (petri dish of bacteria. Gross.). When they are too cheap to buy some liquid soap, you wonder what else they are doing to cut the cost. Service was friendly but the girl gave one container for two dishes mixing up the sauces. Sorry to leave a bad review but we probably won't go back. ------- Given excellent ratings on Google, we thought we'd give it another try after 2 years. Maybe it got better, we thought. Sunday lunch time and no one was there. The place still stank like smoke. I don't know if we were a bit disgusted by the pile of poop (either large dog's or human's) by the parking lot or the garbage that was spilling over by the hotel entrance, we decided to go somewhere else. So I really can't tell you how the food is now. Read more

My husband and I went to the Shangri La for the first time tonight, the food was so good, fresh, hot and delicious. I highly recommend this restaurant. We will for sure be back.

I can't believe such good pho came from this place! Hands down the best in red deer.

This restaurant would be my second best pho restaurant in my life... my wife and I never expected at all. My wife was into this broth perfect seasonings and perfect beef doneness. I was surprised. Restaurant served us as enough bean sprouts and rice noodle amount which make great. I ... am looking forward to come back. Read more
