Ren He Guan (人和馆) is an excellent Chinese restaurant that does Shanghainese classics. The restaurant is decked out in nostalgic 1930s fashion with old-timey booths and art deco stained glass panels. Signature dishes at Ren He Guan include hong shao rou aka red braised pork (it’s out of this world!), crabmeat rice and tofu, sheng jian bao, and Squirrel Mandarin Fish, and more.

The restaurant gets pretty busy and bookings in advance are the only way to go, otherwise be prepared to wait for an unspecified amount of time.

There are two locations of Ren He Guan, one on Zhaojiabang Lu in Xuhui, opened since 2014, and another that opened end 2021 in Jing’an. Zhaojiabang Lu is the busier location, the one that holds a Michelin star, and the one I prefer.
