Rui Fu Yuan (South Maoming Road)
瑞福园
A home-style Shanghainese restaurant opened in 1994, popular with local regulars. The yellow croaker soup with wontons and braised pork are highly praised.
Opened in 1994, Rui Fu Yuan started on Jinxian Road before moving to 132B South Maoming Road. It features three floors of dining space and private rooms, and is often filled with local regulars early in the evening. Signature dishes include braised pork, yellow croaker soup with small wontons, yellow wine-soaked chicken, and braised pork intestine with alfalfa. The setting is simple, and English service is limited, but some menu items have pictures. It gets very crowded during peak hours, so calling to reserve a table is recommended (021-6445-8999). Signature dishes like braised pork and river shrimps cost around 68–118 CNY per dish (based on undated review data). It is about a 10-minute walk from South Shaanxi Road Station, perfect for a meal after strolling through the Former French Concession.
