Lilong brings you an authentic Shanghai community and street dining experience. It is all about lively, memorable round-the-table moments with friends and family. Lilong is the name for the centuries-old street communities in Shanghai that are connected by laneways. A cross between English terrace-houses and the traditional Chinese courtyard, these residential back street neighbourhoods are tucked away behind the commercial centre of the city’s boulevards. At Lilong we re-imagine the pulsating melting pot of street food and the heart, soul and rhythm of the streets of Shanghai. The atmosphere embodies a cheerful meeting and eating place that has been such an integral part of Shanghai living. Lilong’s signature range of noodles, dumplings and other dishes reflects those genuine flavours and traditional cooking techniques.

Great food as always. Loved the warm sourdough to start with tempura veges. The quail is always a stand out and the gold band snapper was moist with a crunchy skin . The potato side was crispy with a dressed salad to compliment the richness of the fish and quail. Great friendly service.

Fun dining, reasonable prices and great food You are presented with a huge menu with pictures of the food and then an order form that you complete yourself. The food comes out in a random order but was all very good. Service was fine.

Great GF food and knowledge. Staff were great, although the manager could have helped with the drink service instead of sitting down to chat to a new employee. The young girl was flat chat making cocktails and serving drinks on her own with several tables full.
