About Shanghai Restaurant
Shanghai Restaurant brings Chinese food to the Te Aro area, making it a handy stop for anyone eating out in Wellington. Its central position makes it easy to reach on foot from most inner-city accommodation.
Expect the flavours of China: at Chinese food venues like this, favourites such as xiaolongbao and sweet and sour pork are usually on the menu. It is one of 37 Chinese venues we list in Wellington.
Shanghai Restaurant is open seven days a week. The earliest start is 11:30 am on Mondays, and the latest finish is 11 pm on Mondays. Late-night diners are catered for on Monday, Tuesday, Wednesday, Thursday, Friday, Saturday and Sunday. Like many traditional restaurants, it closes between lunch and dinner service on several days, so check the times before heading over mid-afternoon. In total it trades for about 55 hours each week.
As a rough guide, expect to spend about $20–$40 a head at a Chinese restaurant like this. It is surrounded by other eateries: we count 10 more venues within about 1 km, which makes this part of Te Aro easy to explore on foot.
