Reviews
Only thing I would say is they didnt actually come and give us a jug or water or refill it for us we kinda were just given glasses haha. Will say the beef is a bit chewy but thats probably just my opinion. My partner and I loved it. Keep up the good work.
The portion sizes were incredibly generous — definitely “eyes bigger than stomach” on our part! Everything we ordered was beautifully presented and full of flavor.
The atmosphere is elegant and stylish. Honestly, it’s the only place I’ve seen in Hamilton that feels this close to a fine-dining Chinese restaurant. It’s fancy without being uncomfortable.
We’ll definitely be back again!
Music can sometimes be loud on a quiet day. They don’t give bowls, only plates so you have to ask for it.
To be honest I have no idea what exactly my Dad booked, but holy moly I have never seen so much food in my life. They just kept bringing more and more out, so much so that we had multiple bags to take away (can’t complain, love leftovers!)
I’d say the Peking Duck was my personal fav. Both assembling and eating the wraps was amazing. All I could have asked for, great time.
The moment I entered the restaurant, I was immediately captivated by the tasteful and sophisticated decor. The attention to detail was evident in every aspect of the restaurant, from the beautiful Chinese lanterns adorning the ceiling to the intricate artwork on the walls. The ambiance created a sense of tranquility, making it the perfect place for a relaxed and enjoyable dining experience.
The customer service at Shanghai Chinese Restaurant was simply outstanding. The staff members were attentive, friendly, and well-versed in the menu. They guided me through the extensive selection of dishes and provided excellent recommendations based on my preferences. Their professionalism and genuine warmth added an extra layer of satisfaction to the overall dining experience.
Now, let’s talk about the highlight of the evening: the food. Every dish that arrived at my table was a true masterpiece, both in terms of presentation and taste. The chefs at Shanghai Chinese Restaurant have clearly mastered the art of traditional Shanghai cuisine. Each dish was prepared with precision and care, resulting in an explosion of flavors that left me craving for more.
While every dish I tried was exceptional, two standout dishes deserve special mention. The Beijing roast duck was cooked to perfection, with a crispy skin and succulent meat that melted in my mouth. It was served with delicate pancakes and a selection of condiments, allowing me to create my own delightful duck wraps. The combination of textures and flavors was simply divine.
Another dish that left a lasting impression on me was the Buddha jumping wall soup. This rich and aromatic soup is a true delicacy, made with a combination of premium ingredients such as abalone, sea cucumber, fish maw, and other seafood delicacies. The flavors were complex yet harmonious, and the broth was velvety and comforting. It was a true indulgence for my taste buds.
Seafood lovers will be pleased to know that Shanghai Chinese Restaurant offers a variety of live fish and seafood options. Whether you prefer steamed fish, seafood hotpot, or wok-fried delicacies, you’ll find an extensive selection to satisfy your cravings. The freshness and quality of the seafood were evident in every bite, further enhancing the overall dining experience.
In conclusion, Shanghai Chinese Restaurant at SkyCity Hamilton is a hidden gem for lovers of authentic Shanghai cuisine. From the moment you step through the door, you are transported to a world of elegance and sophistication. The combination of the exquisite decor, exceptional customer service, and mouthwatering dishes creates an unforgettable dining experience. If you visit this restaurant, be sure to try the Beijing roast duck and Buddha jumping wall soup for a true taste of Shanghai’s culinary delights.
First time we visited in December 2023 during our trip to NZ and fell in love with their food.
Searched all over Sydney AU trying to find dishes as good as this restaurant served, but no luck.
Luckily we have returned to NZ this year as well and drove all the way to Hamilton just to have lunch there, ended up booking dinner for another day as well. Thanks team!
