Beware The Hipsters – Do you have a certain political slant or maybe a story of being wasted you'd like to share? Did you meet someone from that one band no one's ever heard of and can't wait to gush about it? Who or what makes you upset in the world this week? Can't stop hating popular culture long enough to discontinue breathing life into it by talking about it all the time? Then Shanghai's the place for you, baby. You can even call it "The Tun" if you like! Cool! You and your Bettie Page haircut can come and get your hips... read more

Mixed Bag – Went here with a bunch of friends, interesting underground location although you would not know you are in any type of tunnel. Food was spicy and pretty good, however: *no table service; order from the bar *you get your own water *someone came by to get our empty bowels because they were obviously needed elsewhere *18% required gratuity *kind of spendy for being a dive, $5.50 for a beer, most of the selection on tap was out. Despite the drawbacks, I am giving three stars for the pretty good food and underground l... read more

Go underground This place is right in the mix of downtown bars. I would only go here during the week. The weekends are a whole other scene. Most of the bar is underground and super dark. They serve average Asian style food, but recommend just sticking to a drink here.

Shanghai Tunnel- the bar I've never been on the tours, but the Shanghai Tunnel bar is a great find. It's built underground, in what used to be part of the actual Shanghai tunnels. The lighting is great- it's dark and moody. Drinks and food are a bit expensive, but the high prices are standard for this type of bar, location- besides, you're in a cool tunnel. It's hard to complain. A great selection of beer, pan-Asian foods, too.

LOve it! Oh I loved to be creeped out and this is creepy for sure! The tour was great and we loved the atmosphere of scariness! We were all scared and hanging on to eachother. Recommend for a good ol' Portland time!!

went bad – Over the last months this place went downhill so bad. Just a few months ago I rated this place highly and now it went really bad. Some staff members left which left only the very unkindly one's behind. I gave it more than two chances but that's it now. Not going there anymore.

worst management ever – we made the mistake of hosting our employee party here, and when it came time to pay we had a lot of extra charges on our bill that the bartender couldn't account for. When we asked for a manager, we were told that she was the manager and that the total was correct, but someone had paid a previous tab that deducted from our limit. I then asked for a copy of the previous tab that was paid and she couldn't provide me with a reciept. As a manager of a bar, I know that anyone with authority should be able... read more

best quesadilla ever! – Best cheese, rice and bean quesadillas ever. My boyfriend and I even have to split it, it's so loaded with yummy goodness. During happy hour, it's only $4 too. Along with a good strong drink... it's the perfect after work treat. Also, great wall murals in the place.

Cool bar, bad smoke – Shanghai is a really cool bar. It's different from most in Portland because it lies below street level. It has a funky vibe and low-key. Plus, drinks are cheap :-) However, the reason I cannot go back there is because of the smoke. I have barely walked in the main door upstairs, and I can already smell the cigarette smoke down below. By the time I've walked down stairs, my clothes, hair, skin is hopeless. I stopped going because of that. I realize that Oregon will be smoke-free in 2009, but it's not too... read more
