The Commune Social — Restaurant in Shanghai

This is one of my favorite western food restaurants in Shanghai. The concept is small plates/tapas style with some of the mains are bigger portions. Pricing is a bit on the high side given the portion size but this is consistent with most tapas places are My rating is based on the following:

Food: 5 stars Atmosphere: 4.5 stars Service: 4 stars Value: 4 stars

All the food I was good with some dishes exceptional. Suckling pig is probably my favorite protein. What I look for is crispy skin and juicy, tender meat. The suckling pig here hits those criteria. The apple sauce was also a nice touch giving the dish a hint of sweetness.

The other dish that I found exceptional was the beet salad. The dish was plated beautifully and the flavors were also on point. The sweetness of the beets was paired nicely with the umami flavor and richness of the cheese.

The brunch here is also very good. Menu items are similar to dinner but served as a set lunch. If you haven’t been here it is well...

This restaurant gives a very trendy, relaxed upscale vibe. It has simple but nice set up. I went in the evening before it closed, so it wasn’t as crowded. The staff was friendly and spoke both English and Chinese. They recommended some dishes. The food was tasty and they had a different array of foods and mixes of things. The portion size isn’t too big, so if you are hungry and a eater prepare to order multiple platters. The price was alittle more expensive compared to other places. Was it worth it? I believe so if you want to try different more exquisite type of Spanish themed dishes. They had light music playing in background but wasn’t overbearing. Overall I give this place a 4/4.5 but it was...

I went to this restaurant cause I was craving for Spanish dishes, I have been a lot of times in Spain so I know how it should be. Unfortunately I did not find anything I wanted on the menu, no tapas, no tacos, no Spanish ham, nothing to remind me Spain.. I just had..... Burger, mini burger, and my wife lambs chops.... After this I just went to Taco Bell's cause I was still hungry. Sorry to review like that but please, if you call yourself Spanish restaurant, make real food from Spain, it was good, in starter we took Spanish breakfast and that was great, but I was expecting more local...
