[2025 Shanghai Restaurant] Travel Guide for GONGYAN ORIENTAL ART (Updated Jul)

I always think that the latest and coolest consumer experience is right to come to Shanghai. Although I have some imagination about the palace banquet, it is just like the specifications of the ancient emperor's banquet. It is a feast for the eyes and the details are really in place. I highly recommend it 👍next level! 🌟From a girl's perspective, "I am here to wear ancient costumes"! There are so many beautiful styles of Hanfu, such as chest-length skirts, large-sleeved shirts, and horse-faced skirts. It is best to come at 5 o'clock to choose and take pictures. When the dinner starts at 7 o'clock, it will not be so smooth to take pictures when there are too many people~ 📷 Before 6 o'clock, use your makeup and makeup to welcome the golden shooting time! There are almost no people in the hall, and the whole scene is like you have reserved it🤣The carved beams and painted buildings, red lanterns, and screen pavilions are very atmospheric, and it looks like a movie blockbuster no matter how you take it! 🍱The overall food is quite satisfactory, not as bad as the Internet says! After each performance, a dish will be served, and the historical story will be introduced according to the light projection of the dish. The performers' costume dance is delicate and moving, and it is quite atmospheric💕 ✔️Similar to Japanese omakase, you can eat one dish at a time. Before the main banquet begins, you can choose your favorite tea cup, eat snacks with a small pot of Dahongpao for each person; and "maids" will add sweet wine that looks a bit like fermented rice! 💰Banquet prices are divided into lunch and dinner -Lunch: VIP seat 498 yuan/person, banquet seat 398 yuan/person -Dinner: VIP seat 698 yuan/person, banquet seat 498 yuan/person 👗About changing clothes -Clothing and hairstyle: 100 yuan/person -Clothing, hairstyle and makeup: 200 yuan/person (If you go on your birthday, makeup and photos are free, saving 200 yuan directly 📍Building 1, No. 1485, Beijing West Road, Jing'an Temple Street #Shanghai Travel #Palace Banquet #Shanghai Store Exploration#Costume Performance

Totally worth it! 💗💗💗💗 Visited Shanghai and had so much delicious food. The top recommendation has to be this! 💗Imperial Banquet The food is incredibly tasty, and there are traditional Chinese performances to watch. It's a complete feast for the eyes and taste buds. Now I understand why ancient people didn't get bored without smartphones. 😹 The best part is it's only 600 per person! You can even add $100 for a costume change, which really enhances the atmosphere. 🤣 Plus, the photos turn out great. 💗Remember to book at least a week in advance! 💗

👨🏻🍳 Palace Banquet 📍 No. 1485 Beijing West Road, Building 1, Floors 1 and 2 "A once-in-a-lifetime experience 😆: The ultimate ticket rush 🥹" Highly recommended by friends, this is a must-visit spot. You need to book tickets a month in advance! 🥺 Tickets open for booking at midnight sharp, so make sure to set your date before trying to grab one 🥺. A deposit of ¥100 per person is required. Initially, we couldn’t secure seats together (since we were a group of four 🙈). But don’t give up! Keep refreshing the page, and you might get lucky 😆. Sometimes, people encounter payment issues or timeout errors, and their spots get released 🙈. Thankfully, we managed to snag four seats together in the end 🥹🫶🏻. Once your reservation is successful, you’ll receive a confirmation text. The day before the banquet, the restaurant will call to confirm your attendance and ask if anyone in your group is celebrating a birthday—they’ll prepare a birthday surprise 😝. If you plan to do makeup, change outfits, or style your hair, it’s recommended to arrive at 4:30 PM (the earlier you arrive, the better the outfit selection 🙈). We arrived at 4:30 PM, and some guests were already changing outfits. By the time we finished dressing up, the place was crowded, and the outfit choices were limited 🙈. If you don’t plan to dress up, arriving at 6:30 PM is fine, as the banquet starts at 7:00 PM 🫶🏻. Makeup + outfit change + hairstyling: ¥200 Outfit change + hairstyling: ¥100 You’ll first select your outfit, then proceed with makeup and hairstyling. The staff is very efficient 🙈, and everything gets done quickly. Afterward, you’ll have free time to take photos 😆. You can take pictures in the courtyard downstairs or indoors. Since it’s crowded, everyone cooperates to make space 🙈. — Food-wise, it’s truly impressive 🥹🫶🏻. The dishes are classic Shanghai cuisine, each carefully introduced, and the flavors are excellent! At the end of the banquet, all staff members, including the chefs, come out to thank the guests, adding a warm touch to the experience 🫶🏻. — Current Season Menu: Summer Banquet Ceremonial Offerings: Honoring heaven and earth, celebrating the abundance of nature, and expressing gratitude for the harvest.

They’ll also provide a warm towel for your hands and incense. 🥃 The Peach Blossom Perilla Drink is mildly sweet and sour, with a light alcohol content. I personally loved it 🤤. Palace Snacks: Black Sesame Glutinous Rice Rolls, Bayberry Cake Palace Cold Dishes: Pickled Lotus Root, Spicy Moringa Stems, Seaweed Peanuts It was my first time trying Black Sesame Glutinous Rice Rolls, and the sesame flavor was rich and aromatic. Both cold dishes were delicious, especially the Spicy Moringa Stems, which we described as "amazingly tasty veggies" 🤣. The Seaweed Peanuts were slightly salty 🙈. 🍲 Hot Soup: Jinhua Ham and Tofu Soup Rich and flavorful 🥹, with generous ingredients! The milky white soup was piping hot and incredibly tasty. The Jinhua ham wasn’t overly salty, with a perfect balance of fat and lean meat, and the tofu was tender 👍🏻. 🥩 Beef: Black Pepper Crispy Snowflake Beef This dish had a strong black pepper flavor, slightly salty but packed with beefy goodness 👍🏻. 🦐 Seafood: Green Crab with Sour Radish and Bean Noodles The taste resembled a spicy and sour soup 😻. The bean noodles were chewy and absorbed the flavors well. There were plenty of crab claws and meat, making it a hearty dish 👍🏻. 🐖 Pork: Dongpo Pork This was the best braised Dongpo Pork I’ve ever had 🥹🫶🏻. Even compared to renowned Shanghai restaurants, this dish stood out 🙈. The chef achieved a perfect texture for the pork skin, with balanced seasoning and an ideal fat-to-lean ratio. The rich, aromatic flavor lingered on the palate—absolutely divine 👍🏻. 🦐 Seafood: West Lake Water Shield Codfish Meatballs Not the typical braised meatballs, but refreshingly light and flavorful 🤤. The texture and taste were reminiscent of fish balls mixed with minced meat 🤣. The meat was tender and soft. 🍽️ Main Course: Chinese Noodles Longevity noodles, similar to scallion oil noodles 🤤. 🍧 Dessert: Osmanthus Honey Yogurt A delightful yogurt drink 🤤. Mildly sweet and sour, it satisfied my craving for yogurt during this Shanghai trip 🙈. Many restaurants offered yogurt-based desserts, which was a pleasant surprise 🤤.

"Gong Banquet" is a meal I highly recommend! It's quite cost-effective, and if you're in Shanghai, you must try it at least once. "Gong Banquet" is not just a restaurant; it's a feast for the taste buds and a cultural experience. Founded by Mr. Xing Bin, Vice President of the Beijing Culinary Association and the fifth-generation inheritor of imperial cuisine craftsmanship, Gong Banquet is dedicated to preserving ancient court dishes. With strict ingredient selection and meticulous cooking, it offers "new court cuisine" that is traditional yet innovative, blending heritage with modern creativity.

This Shanghai Palace Banquet is like going back to ancient times. You can wear ancient costumes and ancient accessories. It feels like you are in the ancient times. It is so fitting. There are also many delicious and unique foods, as well as singing and dancing performances, which are really dazzling. I will go again to watch their performance next time.

Gong Yan came highly recommended when I told a friend I was going to Shanghai. It was supposed to be set in imperial China (the current theme is Song Dynasty) and one is meant to dine like a palace noble. Coming in at about RMB 400 per person (lunch), it was a pretty good 10-course meal. We were seated and served high grade Da Hong Pao tea, 3 Deg Plum Wine, various pastries and side dishes first. When the show started, we were presented with the most delicious Jin Hua Ham tofu soup. The other dishes that followed were nice, but they seem to get culinarily lazier as the course goes. The meal ended with a clear noodle soup (very plain), and an osmanthus flavoured yogurt which I honestly do not think its very imperial China at all...? My mother-in-law who is lactose intolerant was given some cut fruits. Despite my criticism though, the food was still all in all high quality and worth eating for the price point. My main gripe with the experience though was my confusion with what I need to do at each point in time.... The intersperse of show and service left one with very little time to appreciate the food. When I find myself trying to watch the dance and understand the show, my food gets neglected and the next course is ready to be served. When I switched my focus to savour every morsel of food, I find myself dining in the dark (they off the lights for show effect) and thereby losing the visual appreciation of both my lunch and the performance - which I think is a little disrespectful too. What is one supposed to do when dining in the palace??? In the midst of my confusion, the 12:10 lunch seating very quickly become 2pm and I felt like I had been rushed through a meal, ready to resume my imperial court duties. I will sentence the director of this meal to experience this pandemonium for himself... T_T Perhaps that's just me. Seated in the middle of our group of 5, my experience was likely a moderation of my entire family. The mother-in-law on the extreme right had the best view of the show. She thoroughly enjoyed the food and experience. She also appreciates the accommodation to her dietary requirements (she also does not eat beef and they switched out her beef dish with chicken). All in all she gives this meal a 5-star rating because Shanghai was otherwise as exciting as memorizing the periodic table. My sister-in-law on the extreme left and also the last seat of the row had a whole other experience. She did not understand much about the performance and was fervently trying to keep herself awake during the meal. Doesn't help that her view of the performance was largely obstructed by a mega pillar. For this, we do not recommend sitting in seat North 11-11. As a foodie, she keenly awaits each performance to be over so that she gets more food though! After the meal, she continues to sing praises about the beef dish. Lastly, and something I wish the restaurant would pick up and improve on though, was how they treat their staff in plain view of t

The Palace Banquet located in Jing'an Temple is definitely a popular check-in spot in Shanghai. You need to reserve a seat in advance on the mini program and pay a deposit of 100 yuan per person. The deposit will be returned to you when you arrive at the site. The parking fee can be refunded to you in the Palace Banquet Hall after paying the parking fee in the parking lot. This time we experienced the winter dinner, which cost 498 yuan per person. You can also change your clothes and put on makeup while dining, which costs 100 yuan. The banquet starts at 7pm. Friends who need to change clothes need to arrive there more than an hour in advance to prepare. Of course, you can also dine without changing clothes. The dining environment is great, with an antique feel, as if you've traveled back to ancient times. Let's talk about the dishes: Palace tea: Wuyishan Dahongpao, which lets you choose your own teacup; Palace imperial brew: osmanthus and green plum wine 3 degrees, the wine glass is an ancient cup, quite interesting; Palace dim sum: bayberry cake, black sesame donkey rolls; Palace cold dishes: stir-fried loofah tips, hot and sour kelp, seaweed peanuts; Hot soup: Jinhua ham and tofu soup, the soup is very delicious; Seafood: black truffle shrimp balls, crispy onion and taro; Main course: Palace braised fish maw, black pepper crispy snowflake beef, the beef is very crispy and delicious, crab roe and sour radish with bean noodles; Staple food: three-strand chicken soup with noodles; Dessert: osmanthus honey yogurt. There are also performances while eating dinner, and they will talk about the origin of each dish before serving it. It is very good, and the performances are also wonderful: Chunshen Jun sacrifices to the five grains, the jade dance, when will the bright moon appear, a thousand miles of rivers and mountains, looking for the Song Dynasty, a thousand miles of rivers and mountains, and a thousand miles of dreams. These programs are very eye-catching and very good. There will also be interactive activities with customers, full of surprises. The whole dining time is about 2 hours. I highly recommend everyone to check in and experience it. The atmosphere is full, super good 👍🏻

As soon as you enter the door, it feels like you have arrived in another time and space. From the waiters to the interior decoration, everything feels great. There are also costumes for rent on site, and makeup and hair can be purchased. It is completely immersive. Enjoy the delicious meal while watching the performance. At first, I thought the food in this kind of exaggerated restaurant should be very ordinary. But it turns out! Big surprise! The food was delicious and exquisite. It was like a royal meal. It was very enjoyable. The performance was also very exciting. There was no dull moment. It was really worth experiencing here! !

This is the first palace banquet in Shanghai where you can cosplay and have performances. It opened earlier this year. You don’t have to go to Xi’an or Beijing to experience it! 👍 Those who like to cosplay and change clothes can go earlier, as it still takes some time to put on makeup and take photos, so as not to affect the dining and performances later. The lighting and shadow of the stage are quite good. Not only are there lights on the back screen and the stage, but there are also some projections related to the food and the story on everyone's plate at the dining table. Pay attention to these details when dining and watching! [Awesome] The meals were served in several batches according to the story. The taste was relatively light, and there was nothing too amazing. The main thing was to eat for the atmosphere and the immersive experience. The maids who served were all wearing veils, and it felt like there was a shortage of staff. When serving the meals, we wanted them to slow down and take some photos and videos (because the light was relatively dim and fast movements would easily blur out). Generally, they would politely tell us that they were in a hurry to serve other tables or subsequent meals, and had to leave in a hurry. It was a pity that there was a lack of aesthetic stay and interaction in the service process. The most annoying thing about the environment is the several pillars surrounding the stage, which will block some customers' tables. If customers leave the table to take pictures or watch, it will affect other customers or service staff, so it is bound to force everyone to go early and choose unobstructed seats. PS: It seems that the first row requires VIP reservations or extra money, so you know [Smart] Those who go early can also take photos in the courtyard at the entrance. The framing effect is also good. It seems that there are some private rooms in the courtyard that can perform solo. [StarEyes]

#localfoodies Royal Banquet Restaurant in Shanghai is a luxurious haven for those seeking exquisite Chinese cuisine. From the moment you walk in, the elegant décor and attentive service set the tone for an exceptional meal.

Each dish is a work of art, both visually stunning and full of rich, balanced flavors. Whether for a special celebration or a refined dinner, Royal Banquet offers a memorable dining experience that captures the essence of traditional Chinese luxury. Advanced reservations highly recommended! My rating: 5 ⭐️ out of 5!

I came to taste the palace banquet with my friends last night, it was really wonderful. Let’s talk about the dishes first. The first thing served was the Jinhua ham and tofu soup, which was salty and fragrant. Is the soup made with milk? It’s so milky white, and the tofu has the fragrance of old tofu. The following dishes were also of good quality. The braised eel with crab roe was delicious. The eel meat was sweet, tender and plump, and the garlic, like taro, had a soft and powdery texture. The crispy glazed pigeon is so amazing that it is served with peppercorns, probably the "Da Hong Pao". The numbing sensation helps to dissolve the greasiness of the pigeon. Remember, there is also black pepper crispy marbled beef, which is more delicious, not just in appearance. The dish of crab stuffed with orange and lotus seeds was not of the right season, and the crab roe was not fat enough. Even though it was seasoned with 10-year-old Shaoxing wine, the taste was not as amazing as expected. The meal was paired with red wines such as Longyu Winery's Long 12, which President Cui brought. These wonderful red liquids are rich in fruity aroma and layered texture, with rich tannins, and are a perfect match with the previous dishes. There must be an expert to give guidance at the palace banquet. The rhythm of serving the dishes is well controlled, with fresh and tender seasonal vegetables serving as commas between the fatty and greasy ingredients, making the taste buds less tired. What surprised me most was the singing and dancing performance! It’s simply the perspective of kings, princes, generals and ministers, a glance that lasts a thousand years! Song and dance performance! The dancers were definitely not perfunctory; they were dressed in feathered robes and spun lightly, as if they were traveling back to that era of prosperity and peace. This is not just a palace feast, but an all-round sensory experience of beauty! Mobilizing all our senses, when we drink to our climax, we can also see the performance of real-life garden in the courtyard, with colorful clothes, singing and dancing, sound, light and electricity, interpreting the fireworks of the world in Jiangnan County. Beautiful Jiangnan! Under the light and shadow of the palace banquet hall, in front of the blossoming plum trees, and in the mist of the real-life gardens, the charm of the prosperous Han and Tang dynasties can be recorded. Taste: OK, it is the taste I like in the free shipping area, no major problems Environment: Absolutely amazing. A glance at a thousand years, a scene at the level of a palace drama Service: The veiled lady is very patient. Cost-effectiveness: suitable for entertaining important guests. Or the young lady who loves to check in and take photos
