What customers say?

“ Beautiful food. Loved the Deep Fried Shredded Mandarin Perch. Not exactly cheap at HKD418 for that dish, but a really excellent dish to have especially as the fish and the method of presentation is rare if coming from Western shores. The snowpea sprouts (dau miel) was super fresh and tender, done in a chicken supreme stock it was just wonderful. “Lao Shang Hai” (or Old Shanghai) is up a flight of stairs or an escalator ride in the Emperor’s Building in WanChai. Given the name, it is not surprising to find the menu is oriented towards Shanghai-style cuisine. Despite google providing an address on Hennessy Rd, it is actually on Johnston Rd, at least the escalators that take you up to the restaurant is on Johnston Rd, right next to the Emperor Jewellery store. Definitely worth a visit for fine dining that will be better than most Chinese restaurants overseas without breaking the bank. I’d say that price-wise it would be on par with fine dining at any up-scale restaurant in Australia and cheaper than any up-scale restaurant in the U.S. ”

“ This is one Shanghai restaurant in Hong Kong with quite a die-hard following. Some of the dishes may seem a bit challenging for those who are not used to having so much fat on their meat - Dong Pao Pork. Some may also find the cuisine too sweet for their liking. I personally think the cuisine has its unique appeal & I do enjoy paying my patron during my visits. ”

“ High quality, a good selection and probably one of the more authentic Shanghainese restaurants in HK. Though the location on the first floor is relatively new (since 2018) the restaurant has been in the building for over a decade. ”
