CHAR

At Hotel Indigo's new contemporary bar and grill, CHAR, superlatives are justified: the flavours are not only some of the boldest in Shanghai, the views will impress even the most worldly of travellers.

The foie gras parfait crumble with apple and red onion jam (130RMB) has an exquisite texture combination and is possibly the best foie gras in town.The CHAR banana cheesecake (70RMB) is divine. Read more

Steaks were good. The service great. I like that knife service. Love the unique salts. Stay away from the seafood platter . Wasn't fresh. Love the ambience. A fun steakhouse .

The gnocchis were delicious! So was the banana cheesecake- a must.

Steak is always overcooked. Ask for it to be one level rarer than what you want. Can always fix an undercooked but not overcooked steak .

Alisher Kurbanov

Nice view , big selection of tender steaks

Food, presentation, decor are great. However service is horrible. Being ignored at the bar , not getting steak knives, not missing champagne glasses... Be patient if you eat here

If you don't want the beef , grilled lobster is good. Service is mediocre.
