Parlay
Located in Shanghai's Shankang Li, Parlay is an American-style sports bar and BBQ joint from seasoned restaurateur Matty Waters, featuring pool tables, darts, and a large terrace—with exceptional Kansas City-style barbecue and premium pub grub.
The menu is a meat-lover's paradise, emphasizing house-smoked, dry-rubbed meats made fresh daily. Standouts include tempura spare ribs, a variety of smoked wings, and massive sandwiches like the Double G Combo and the Pastrami Reuben.
For the main event, choose from expertly smoked brisket, pork ribs, and char siu pork belly, all served with classic sides.
The vibe is relaxed and nostalgic, fueled by a 90s hip-hop soundtrack, live sports screenings, and weekend live music.
Parlay successfully merges the best elements of a sports bar with serious barbecue chops, quickly establishing itself as a unique and popular destination.

Homeslice's New York-style pizzas with sourdough crust are a Shanghai favorite––big, juicy slices with inventive, seasonal toppings that you fold in half like a sandwich.
Homeslice Kitchen in Shankang Li also has an expanded menu that ventures beyond pizza into full Italian-American fare.
Highlights include Melanzane Parmigiana—a flourless, layered eggplant dish brined and baked to perfection—and Four-Cheese Mac & Cheese—a mysteriously melty, stringy blend of cheddar, mozzarella, provolone, and parmesan.
For something more substantial, go for the Pan-Roast Rump Cap or Garlic Butter Shrimp with Focaccia—succulent shrimp drenched in garlicky goodness.
Their signature cocktails—crafted with local brands Julu Gin and Pao Drinks Co.—are also a must-try.

Spend RMB200+ per person, and club entry is free. Post-10pm, the lounge shifts into a vinyl-driven shisha spot, while upstairs, resident DJs spin house and techno in a tight, energetic club.

NEWA
Shanghai's dining scene has itself a serious dose of Himalayan spice in NEWA, a vibrant Nepali eatery tucked into Jing'an's M+ complex.
This is Nepalese cooking at its most unapologetically bold—a cuisine shaped by centuries of trade between Northern India and China's western frontiers, yet still largely uncharted here in Shanghai.
The restaurant takes its name from the Newa people, the indigenous inhabitants of Nepal's Kathmandu Valley, whose culinary traditions are as rich as their history, while the setting—dim lighting, discreet Himalayan motifs—is an elegant backdrop.
NEWA's menu thrills with spice, smoke, and slow-cooked depth, each dish a vibrant testament to Nepal's love affair with flavor.
