Danieli
Sophisticated Italian food on top of St. Regis hotel in Pudong. Diners
have an excellent view on Lujiazui. While service and food are perfect,
the +15 % service charge and the far-off location are definitely a
minus.
It’s the only hotel that you have your own butler for your room. Make reservations for a table near the window.
Danieli’s is a fine and sophisticated Italian restaurant, although it
is quite far away from the going out area’s it was worth the 30 minute
trip. the food was excellent and the service personalised, as the St. Regis tradition. The view was
very good as well. It was named best Italian restaurant of Shanghai a
couple of times and it definitely deserves this status. The price is
not cheap but for 400-500 Rmb.

Da Marco Italian Restaurant
Italian food at good prices. Slightly hard to find, but once inside,
you feel like in a true Italian. It’s home style Italian food. You should book a table on weekends. !Out of all the Italian restaurants I have been to in Shanghai this is
easily the best. Their antipasti, main courses and desserts are good,
they have a thorough wine list, and the service is excellent. I highly
highly recommend Da Marco. The Marco the owner has actually been in Shanghai for more than 10 years.
