D了个YMy friend came from afar and stayed at the W Hotel, so he chose this Shanghainese restaurant nearby. The environment is pretty good, but there is no escalator in this area on this floor, so you can only take the elevator, otherwise you have to go around a long way. There were 3 people, 2 adults and 1 child, and we ordered the 988 4-person set meal. The food was served quite quickly. Seeing that there were children, they also gave us a pudding snack, which was quite humane. Overall, the taste was still online | Shanghainese braised pork^ It's really my favorite haha
Disadvantages
① There was a missed order when serving. I urged several times but it didn't come. Why? Later I found out that there was a dish missing from the restaurant's set menu. Thick|Hand-made fish balls in soup^ Fortunately, I read the reviews, otherwise I would not have noticed it at all. Secondly, the price of |Vegetarian goose with black truffle sauce^ was different between the two.
②The lobby seat. The tables next to it left early. It was just after 8 o'clock, and they had already started to turn off the lights and clean up. It felt like they were urging us to pay the bill and rush to close the restaurant.

Nestled in the bustling Magnolia Plaza of the North Bund is Shanghai Banquet, a authentic Shanghainese restaurant that can conquer the palates of all ages. Not only does it boast a superb location, but its 30-year-old chef's profound skills and Black Pearl-level service have made it my undisputed top choice for banquets in the North Bund. Recently, I took my family there, and we happened to catch their autumn new dishes, which received unanimous praise – a truly perfect experience! The restaurant's modern Chinese design language is cleverly blended with the charm of old Shanghai, offering both international style and a warm, homey atmosphere. Outside the windows is the dazzling skyline of Lujiazui, while inside is an elegant and comfortable dining environment. The service is also superb; from seating and tea service to introducing the dishes, everything is handled perfectly, making you feel respected yet completely at ease. **Lotus Leaf Steamed Lamb with Dongshan Lamb** Made with Dongshan lamb, wrapped in lotus leaves and steamed, this dish retains the lamb's freshness while the fragrance of the lotus leaves neutralizes any gamey taste. The lamb is tender and juicy, the skin is chewy and elastic, and it's rich in collagen. Eating it with the broth is both heartwarming and stomach-warming! **Four Treasures in Fermented Rice Wine Sauce** The aroma of fermented rice wine sauce is elegant and mellow, without being pungent. The edamame, shrimp, abalone, and duck tongue, each with its own distinct texture, instantly awaken the taste buds—a perfect prelude. **Alleyway Pork Belly with Steamed Buns** The pork belly, braised in a golden-red sauce, is incredibly tempting. The skin is fatty but not greasy, while the meat is tender and flavorful. Stuffing the pork belly into a steamed bun and dipping it in the rich sauce is a match made in heaven. **Pearl Snowflake Tofu** The tofu is cut into hair-thin "snowflake" shapes, served in a clear broth, and garnished with a pigeon egg "pearl" in the center. The exquisite knife skills are breathtaking. The broth is clear yet flavorful, fresh, and warming. **Fragrant Rice for Miles** This is a bowl of rice that will turn heads and drive food lovers wild with its irresistible aroma. Freshly cooked, piping hot stinky tofu and soft, sticky rice are a match made in heaven. Stir them well before eating—allowing the aroma of the stinky tofu, the sweetness of the rice, and the spiciness of the chili sauce to fully blend in the bowl. One spoonful, and the rich texture and electrifying flavor will make your mouth water just from the aroma alone.

I always thought the Bund's romance was reserved for Western restaurants, until I stumbled upon "Shanghai Banquet," tucked away in Magnolia Square. A single glass lantern shimmers in the dusk, a neon light adorning the riverbank.
