D29***45So fun! I’ve been to most of the culinary provinces in China and this was a great way to try all of the different cuisines. The food was perfect and we were so full by the end. I would definitely recommend going for lunch and having a light breakfast beforehand. There is a lot going on. They usually give you a good amount of time to eat each course, but no pressure to eat all or most of the food. Would also recommend this to anyone who is visiting China for the first time because it does a great job of showing you all the must see places and introducing you to the food, then you’ll know where to go and what to eat before.

NicoleenBest experience ever. The ambiance, the service, the view and the food. Everything was impeccable. I had the best Lamb Shank of my life. Remember to make booking when you plan to go because they book out rather quick. I will definitely come back, I want to experience all of the wonderfulness allover again.

Francesco BenazziWithin Shanghai's Huangpu District, the BFC Bund Financial Center hosts Da Vittorio, a bastion of Italian gastronomy. A sunlit Friday brought me to its opulent threshold, anticipation filling the air. Having heard of its prowess, I entered, discovering a world of flavors. This legacy extended to Da Vittorio - Shanghai, unveiled in 2019, gracing the city with Michelin stars. The restaurant emanated sophistication. Interiors melded greens, woods, marble, crystal chandeliers, and stained-glass windows. Shanghai's cityscape through large windows complemented the feast for the palate. Opted for the 5-course lunch, wine pairings accompanied. Emanuele Restelli, the restaurant manager and head sommelier, guided my gastronomic journey. The journey began with an amuse-bouche trio, followed by **Hokkaido Scallops** with **Coconut and Ponzu Sauce** transitioned gracefully. The ponzu sauce's zest complemented scallops' sweetness, while coconut added a tropical note. **Roasted New Zealand Scampi**, adorned with bell pepper, peas, and capers, was a textured and flavorful masterpiece. **Linguine in Fish Soup** resonated with the sea. Cuttlefish and celery salad added refinement to the maritime theme. **Roero Arneis by Bruno Giacosa (Piedmont), vintage 2021** harmonized with the seafood symphony, showcasing pairing finesse. **Wagyu M5 Beef Tenderloin**, presented by Chef Alican Dadayli, reached a climax, its tenderness complemented by cooking jus. Emanuele returned with a cheese cart, showcasing **Formaggio in Paglia**, matured in straw.  Dessert arrived as **Domaine Franco Chinois - Petit Manseng 2017** embraced **Banana Cake, Passion Fruit Jelly, and Yuzu Cream**, blending sweet harmonies. An Illy espresso marked the conclusion, accompanied by petit fours and a cannoli filled with chantilly cream, a fitting finale. Da Vittorio - Shanghai was an Italian culinary symphony intertwined with Shanghai's allure, creating unforgettable memories.

TWSmileWe’ve visited 3 expensive restaurants in our short stay in Shanghai, and had the best experience at Jin Xuan, with its immaculate Michelin dishes overlooking the River and Bund. What differentiated this restaurant from others is specifically the attention to detail in their service. The restaurant gave a premium feeling from their service, where we were specifically waited by a waitress named Emma, who attended to us thoughtfully throughout our meal and even went above and beyond by helping to organise a surprise birthday cake. We could not recommend this restaurant more highly. Perfect for important client dinners or celebrations.
