Wan Dao Japanese Teppanyaki is a restaurant to be taken seriously. If you plan on eating here over the weekend, I’d recommend getting a reservation. It’s often booked out, and their private rooms, which seat 10-12 people, are probably the best experience they offer, but they book out fast. For the price of RMB 380, you can really get your money’s worth provided you like meat, seafood, and booze. You’re welcome to eat your weight in sashimi, so you really can’t go wrong. Going with a big group is also beneficial to the variety you get when ordering.

So how does it work? We got a big group of friends together and ordered everything we could have possibly wanted off the menu. Among other things, we ordered sashimi (lobster, salmon, sea urchin, etc.), teppanyaki beef, foie gras, grilled shrimp, numerous vegetable dishes, and a few other random delicious things that came out after we told the staff to “bring us your favorite.” We were all drunk as skunks as well since the RMB 380 includes unlimited sake, beer, and plum wine. They were never slow about bringing it out, but the staff started bringing sake by the carafe. Eventually, the evening experience ended, and we had to put our shoes back on and hobble back out into Shanghai, but we’ll certainly be back.
