Chinese cuisine in Shanghai is easy to find, you've come right to the heart of China's restaurant scene. From Cantonese to Hunan and Sichuan, you'll find a favorite place in Shanghai to appease your need for Chinese food while expanding your definition of Asian cuisine.
Old Shanghai Long Tang is a great restaurant for elegant, traditional Chinese food. You'll get to experience some local favorites as well as national dishes of yesteryear and today.
Old Dong Bei Dumpling has reached perfection in the field of Chinese dumplings. Come for a nibble and stay for a meal-- you'll find a whole new way to carbo-load in Shanghai!
Shanghai Ren Jia is traditional Chinese (Shanghai flavoring) done right. You'll love the every-day atmosphere and low-key staff as well as the moderately priced dishes that represent true Chinese cuisine.
For a really unique treat, Donbei Ren is a northern cuisine specalist with the interior decorated like a propaganda hut from the countryside. You'll find wonderful northern cuisine, mostly wheat based rather than rice based, dishes.
Spectrum Chinese is a chic, modern renovation of traditional Chinese fare. Great atmosphere, fun people and the color spectrum well represented in the food.
For Southern Chinese food, Canton offers spice, texture and sauces you wouldn't find up north, while in XinTianDi, Crystal Jade is representing a different aspect of southern cooking in their dumplings, noodles and lovely sides.
For two healthier options, Mao Ming Lu Hot Pot is a great place to dump raw eats into a steaming pot of water and oil. You can expect your food before its cooked right at your own table! And if that isn't healthy enough, Zentral helps you keep it all natural with their wild menu of nature's delights.
