39. Ren He Guan (Zhaojiabang Road)

2025 Global 100 – Local Restaurants

US$28Shanghai CuisineTime-honored Brand

Carol 旅聲筆記🌟Shanghai local cuisine with one Michelin star 🍎The portions of their dishes are small, so be sure to make a reservation! The location is suitable for 4-6 people. The seat is not big (B5), but the service is pretty good. Water will be poured all the time. It is not bad if you are treating guests. 🦀Crab Meal Bibimbap (199 yuan for 1-2 people) This is really good if you can order small portions. If there are not many people, the waiter will help divide the mixture after mixing. It is good for four people to have a small taste. 🍗The braised pork (27 yuan per serving) is for one person. If you don’t want to be too tired, you can share one piece for two people. The waiter can also help cut it. If you eat a small amount, it will feel good and it will feel more refined. 🍲The lion's head (1 portion 27 yuan) is also served per person and comes with soup. If you don't order the soup separately, this is a good treat and tastes relatively light. But the food was served very slowly. Even the pan-fried buns came and this one hasn’t been served yet. 👍The other dishes are also pretty good, and the taste is more memorable than the first time I ate it many years ago ⚠️Be sure to make a reservation! The queue on site started at 16:30 and ended up on the road until we came out at 19:30 after finishing our meal. 💰About 180 yuan per person

40. LE COMPTOIR DE PIERRE GAGNAIRE

2025 Asia 100 – Fine Dining

US$170Western-styleHistorical architectureWestern restaurantCourtyardDistinctive architectureChinese styleInternational themeInstagrammableGreat shot spot

honeeI called to make an appointment one day in advance, and they said I could only come at 12:30 noon. There were still quite a few customers when I arrived. The environment is really good. There is a row of western restaurants on the street in an old-style villa. The set meal is 398, with three courses. I think the bread before the meal is good, it is French bread, with butter, because I dare not eat raw. I chose sea bream slices for the appetizer, the dish was exquisitely presented. I was a little uncomfortable at first, the cream was a little sour, but I got used to it later. The portion is quite large and a little greasy. I chose veal with Indian butter rice for the main course, which felt like cream of mushroom soup. I liked the baked apple dessert very much. The coffee was too small a cup, not enough.

M29***65Although it lost a star this year, Yongfu Club still produced the most delicious pigeon in Shanghai: red willow, half-cooked, and smoked with a very unique herbal aroma. But when it was served, the tableware looked a bit like an urn, which was creepy...

M65***22It was a very good experience. They provided great help in all aspects from checking in to the reunion dinner. Thank you very much Alisa and Mickey. Five-star praise. I look forward to meeting you next time~~

43. Jia Jia Tang Bao (Huang He Road)

No.15 of Light Bites in Shanghai

US$5SnacksFilming Locations

PriyaJiajia Tangbao Huanghe Road Store is located on the famous Huanghe Road Food Street in old Shanghai. This soup dumpling store has a clean and bright environment, good service, and a very high cost performance. I chose the fresh meat soup dumplings with fish ball soup. The overall taste is very good, the soup dumplings are juicy, and the fish balls are firm. As a Chinese meal, it is a very good choice.

44. GGJ Muslim Restaurant

US$15HalalOpen Late

野枫印象I didn't expect that I could eat authentic Xinjiang cuisine in Shanghai. Located on Zhejiang North Road, the Muslim Guanguanji Muslim Restaurant features Xinjiang cuisine, and the interior decoration is also ethnic. There are several good set meals in the store, and the price is very high, but the price of a la carte is also quite affordable. The hand-pulled lamb must be ordered, that fresh, that tender, that's the taste, that's right😋 The lamb skewers are very fragrant and tender, and the taste is super good. After eating, add a few more skewers. The pepper chicken is spicy and fresh, appetizing and delicious, and the portion is quite large. It's just that the taste of naan is not as crispy as the one eaten in Xinjiang. The sweet embryo is delicious, the wine is fragrant, sweet and sticky, I like it very much. The service is good, the lady keeps helping to add water and change the bone dish.

Yolanda_zyI haven't been here for a long time, but the taste is still so good. The lunch set is very rich and well matched. Because there was a birthday party, they also gave me longevity noodles. The preserved plum and yam are refreshing and appetizing. The crispy pork belly is paired with yellow mustard, and there is no greasy taste. The beef is very tender and the mushrooms are very fresh. The soup is light and delicious. The yellow croaker is paired with a special sauce, which makes it more delicious when baked. The roast chicken is particularly ceremonial, served in a copper hot pot, and the ignition link is specially added, which means prosperity. The freshness of the Boston lobster is infiltrated into the vermicelli, the vermicelli is the most delicious, and the lobster is fresh and chewy. There are not many people at noon, and it is also good to have afternoon tea in the lobby after lunch to see the Bund scenery.
