A very good Meishilin restaurant in No. 18, The Bund. This restaurant also has a branch in London. The environment here is very good, and the decoration style inside is also good. It can be said to be very good. Their roast duck caviar is a major feature and tastes good.
Every piece is a work of art. Eating here is not only about the delicious food, but also about one's vision and ability to appreciate art. Therefore, the high price is inevitable. This is a restaurant with good taste and visual environment.

I have heard of Hakkasan for a long time. The words "No. 18, The Bund" alone are enough to attract people. I found a time to come and check in with my friends. Caviar and Peking duck^The signature feature is really delicious. The caviar and Peking duck are upgraded, and every bite is a pleasure. The price of 688 is of course amazing. The four-style dim sum is very delicate. In addition to the colorful appearance, the taste is also very good. Chocolate peanut caramel parfait is a dessert, sweet but not greasy. It also has a delicate appearance and a good taste. When eating in such a place, you really don't have to look for cost-effectiveness. Just enjoy the food with a happy consumption mood.
This caviar duck is the center of the show💕It’s so luxurious🔝 Hakkasan shines again! Is the light still there? There are two lunch sets, 338 and 398, which feel very cost-effective. But I don’t know why the lunch is still very quiet. Considering that there are fewer seats with a view, we still booked a week in advance. [Taste] "Caviar duck" At first, I thought that ¥688 was only half a duck (half a duck has 8 slices, 2 plates), which was not cost-effective, and there are many stores with similar practices. But as Hakkasan’s signature dish, I still ordered it. The juicy duck skin with a little duck meat fits perfectly with the fragrant and soft bread, and the caviar embellishment makes the taste richer. But in terms of the taste of roast duck, this one wins, and I ate a plate in one go. It is definitely a must-order signature. "Four-style dim sum platter" Hakkasan’s dim sum has always been popular with everyone. It launched a four-style dim sum platter, which is not only delicious but also beautiful, more like a bunch of flowers. It fully demonstrates the chef's skills in Cantonese dim sum. "Garlic and Black Pepper Beef Dips" This beef dips is obviously good in meat and fat. The beef dices melt in your mouth. The meat is fragrant and tender, juicy and full of taste. "Crispy Duck Salad" The taste combination is still very good. The duck meat is crispy and not dry, and paired with the fragrant grapefruit, it is an appetizer that makes people's appetite open. The only drawback is that it is a bit salty. [Environment] The view position of No. 18, The Bund, is definitely amazing. The Oriental Pearl Tower is right in front of you. It's so fun to enjoy the beautiful scenery of the Bund and eat delicious food! [Service] Maybe it's because it's quiet at noon, the service is exceptionally good. The dishes are served quickly and online throughout the whole process. It feels very worthwhile for the 10% service charge.
Today I went to No. 18 Bund again. Nothing new. I had Cantonese food from H. Let me tell you my impressions. It is indeed inferior to the Robuchon downstairs. It was already dinner time, but the door was still closed. There was not even a receptionist at the door. It was my first time to push this door. To be honest, it was quite heavy. The front desk was busy verifying the guest's information with a courier. When they saw me coming in, they were a little flustered. Because I had a group meal, they immediately asked me to check my coupon, take my seat, and pour me a glass of water. It's not good to take my time. Anyway, the first impression was not good. No wonder it has declined in the past two years. First of all, the service level is not good. The environment is still good. It is still the same. There is no change. The first-line Bund view is well-arranged, which is what a high-end restaurant should look like. There are many awards on the wall. If you look closely, they are all stocks from the past two years. It is really not good to rely on the old capital. The dishes are standard. Nothing is too amazing, but of course it is not a thunder. During the meal, I found water dripping from the air conditioner on the ceiling, so I asked the waiter. A lady who looked like a lobby manager came over calmly and brought two napkins. That was all. She didn't say anything more. To be honest, I was also surprised to hear such a way of handling things in such a restaurant. Overall, there is not much to say. Putting aside other things, the service has already lost half of the battle. There is room for improvement.
If we talk about the most difficult restaurant to get a spot in Restaurant Week, it must be Hakkasan. I never thought I could get a spot, and it turned out that I was obsessed with eating. Nanjing Road is hard to walk on during holidays. I finally moved to No. 18 The Bund and rushed in. It was much quieter in an instant. The environment is noble and elegant, and there are dragons and phoenixes embroidered on the sofa seats. You can see the Oriental Pearl Tower opposite and the beautiful scenery of Huangpu River from the window seat. I have to mention their service, which must be given full marks! ! Because it was raining, the waiter helped to deposit the long-handled umbrella, helped to spread the napkins as soon as we sat down, changed the plates in time during the meal, wiped the food residue on the table immediately, and even led the way to the door when asked where the toilet was. Such service is rare in many high-end restaurants in Shanghai. Alcoholics can drink anytime and anywhere, day and night, one cocktail per person, chic. -Vinegar Pearl Golden Pot Stickers The pot stickers are mini and delicate. I thought they were filled with fish roe, but they were actually filled with vinegar. The cooking method is very special. -Flower Season Dim Sum Assortment Even Chinese food is very particular about the presentation. Dim Sum includes caviar cordyceps dumplings, shrimp and lily dumplings, thousand-layer butterfly cakes and abalone matsutake cakes. The shrimp dumplings are chewy and delicious. -Salad Crispy Duck Pea sprouts with duck shreds and soy sauce seasoning taste sour and sweet, very refreshing and appetizing. -Chicken Minced Corn Soup A bowl of heart-warming and stomach-warming thick soup, the chicken minced is white in color, original and delicious. -Curry Sauce Shrimp Balls The shrimp balls are plump and large, and you feel very satisfied after eating them. The curry sauce is not poured on the shrimp balls, which seems a bit redundant. -Golden and Silver Egg Chicken with Soup It tastes like a home-cooked dish, very light. The so-called golden and silver eggs are nothing more than frangipani and preserved eggs. -Spicy fried rice noodles with shredded duck Low oil, taste a little bland, ordinary. -Fragrant coconut ice cream cake Even the dessert looks good, made directly into a coconut shape, with a rich coconut fragrance and endless aftertaste. -Lemon in a cup When I took the first bite, I thought it was so sweet, but when I took the second bite, it was really sour, with such a rich taste, it was even more amazing. Actually, I also want to eat their caviar duck, but the price is a bit expensive, so I can only wait for the boss to treat me to a second bite.
The environment is upscale. A 10% service charge is required, but the service is very good. You can make reservations for window seats in advance. Dishes: Caviar duck: 688 yuan, very delicious, not greasy with caviar, just the right combination. The duck meat is a little dry, but the enoki mushrooms are very tasty. Ordered a lunch set, which is very cost-effective; Four-in-one dim sum: no good or bad, not amazing In the set, I chose fried dim sum: pumpkin, 2 crisps, ok Salad crispy duck: vegetables are delicious Beef cubes: good meat quality Asparagus: clean and tidy Rice: rice is sweet Drinks: special, choose according to personal taste, the tea is strong Coconut ice cream: taste good after the meal~ Overall a good store~
