Lou Shang

Lou Shang, a charming Cantonese restaurant nestled in Lytham Saint Annes, has quickly become a local favorite. Diners rave about the superb quality of the food paired with stellar service that creates a warm and inviting atmosphere. As James Harrison noted, it was “the best meal” he’s had, underscoring the restaurant’s attention to detail and dedication to excellence.

Wendy Truscott highlighted Lou Shang’s beautifully decorated and immaculate setting, complimenting the friendly staff who enhance the relaxed ambiance. The restaurant’s signature dishes, such as the Dim Sum Combination and Chicken Curry, receive high praise for their rich flavors and generous portions, as Kieron Andrews experienced during a busy weekend dinner.

For those hitting a sweet tooth, don’t overlook the homemade apple crumble, which monster popsicle described as a must-try, even after a filling meal. Gareth's experience showcases how Lou Shang manages to balance a lively atmosphere with attentive service, ensuring a memorable dining experience. Just be prepared for the steep stairs to access this culinary gem.

“Delicious, Loved it, the best meal I’ve had, amazing “ were some of the words my dad said during the meal. Doesn’t say a lot for my cooking!! But I’d have to agree the service, food and attention to detail is spot on. We’ll be back.

Lovely Chinese restaurant once you get up the stairs as they’re very steep,(went with my parents in their mid 80s)but once up everything is absolutely perfect, Friendly staff, relaxed zen atmosphere,the restaurant was beautifully decorated and spotless, and the food was delicious.

What an amazing restaurant to eat Cantonese food at, amazing setting, fabulous staff always on hand and very hard working, the chefs are some of the best in the North West, we had ordered Dim Sum Combination, 1/4 Duck, Chicken Curry, Chicken Fried Rice, Cha Sui with Ginger & Spring Onion sizzling Plate with 4 drinks just a touch over 80 which I and you would think is a great price for the amount and quality of food you get, I can't believe how lucky we got with no reservation aswell on a busy Saturday night too was seated instantly, was a lively place but not too much, I can't put into words how much we loved our meal and will make the trip over more frequently to eat here again... hope this review will make someone else go and experience the same as we did

We accidentally walked past the entrance at first and had to double back. The door is right next to the entrance to the Tesco. We ordered veggie noodles in satay sauce, chicken chow mein with crispy noodles and salted spicy chips. The chips were absolutely the best thing I had all holiday! Not too spicy. Interesting flavours. Well cooked chicken. Plenty of vegetables! We were seated upstairs near the window and so got a great view of the high street. Everyone that waited on us was very polite and they asked more than once how our meal was. The staff were very friendly! We were so stuffed at the end that we couldn’t manage a dessert, although the desserts sounded fantastic. At the end of the meal we each got a fortune cookie with a little message inside. Very reasonable price! They have a cool little water feature at the top of the stairs that spits out dry ice smoke. There’s a sign on it that says “do not touch” so obviously everyone that goes past it wants to reach out and play with it. I resisted.

Have gone for decades, most of my life. Manager always looks pleased to see me and other customers, makes people feel welcome. Most staff have always been good. Best Chinese food in the area. Locals also know to use it for a better takeaway. The Shu mai/ dum sum isn’t the best, quite small and got no dip. As a takeaway there was a couple of times the meat was very dry, the egg fried rice was greasy. Can’t use it as a takeaway on a Friday or Saturday evening because it’s so busy. Majority of time food is excellent.
