Shanghai Blues London Description

Shanghai Blues is situated in the grade II listed building that formerly housed the St Giles Library, the restaurant and bar is in keeping with the understated luxury of its surroundings. The menu focuses on traditional regional cuisine from Shanghai, offering a more purist dining experience.

Split into five distinct areas, the feelings of space and luxury is palpable throughout the venue: the bar is perfect for a pre-dinner drink while the mezzanine lounge is ideal for cocktails and canapes; the 'Silk' dining room invites diners for an opulent meal, whilst the 'Tea' dining room is great for smaller gatherings. The private dining room welcomes those guests who are after privacy. Elements of traditional Chinese interior design have been used throughout the restauarnt but have been pared down to a modern reinterpretation.

Customer Reviews for Shanghai Blues

The following customer reviews are not endorsed by Fluid London and are simply those of users who wish to publish their independent experiences of Shanghai Blues.

“Wow, wow, wow, wow, wow! Amazing place! Colourful decor, colourful food, attentive staff and style, style, style. What mroe can you want? Primarily, this place looks unassuming. From the outside, it's easy to miss unless you know what you're looking for. Once inside, however, you wonder how on earth you missed it because it's bigger than it appears. The food is fabulous, the service exquisite. Come here to eat at least once if you're in London and you'll know what style really means.”

“What an experience! When a friend invited me here I was sceptical but this is not just-another-Chinese-restaurant. This is pure class. Value, service and great food. What more can you ask for?”

Loved

"Food was great. Vodka selection refreshing. Atmoshphere definitely fun - live music and kareoke and staff friendly. Look forward to going there again." Which venue is this?

Hated

"The staff was awful: rude and obnoxious. Bouncers made the evening really miserable by being rude and condescending to all who entered including me. Completely unwarranted for such a small unremarkable..." Which venue is this?
