Shanghai

Chinese Restaurant

A unique change from the typical Chinese restaurant, Shanghai Dalston occupies the listed premises of a former East End pie and mash shop built when Victoria was on the throne, and the atmospheric old shop-front is still here, perfectly preserved.

Inside, the restaurant features contemporary Chinese imagery to complement the fine dining experience on offer. The rear of the restaurant is enhanced by warm natural light flooding in through the stained glass windows, whilst the long bar is the focal point of the front of the restaurant, alongside the oak booths and marble prep areas.

Offering something for everyone, the menu combines classic Chinese cuisine and favourites from the Far East with western influences for a truly delicious selection. The most popular choice is the Pork-Filled Fried Dumpling for starter, served with red vinegar and ginger strips, followed by a main course of Baked Fresh Lobster, with ginger and spring onions.

Renowned for its fantastic food and excellent service, Shanghai Dalston is also well-known for its lively atmosphere during the regular karaoke evenings. There are two karaoke rooms on-site, both able to accommodate up to 40 people each, and can be booked in advance for any special occasion.
