Restaurant

Nestled within the serene, design-forward ambiance of Demores Hotel at 1465 Zhonghua Road, Huangpu District, Shanghai (200021), CÉLINE RESTAURANT emerges as a refined culinary destination that redefines modern dining in the heart of one of Asia’s most vibrant cities. More than just an in-house restaurant, CÉLINE is a celebration of artistry, seasonality, and understated luxury—a space where the timeless elegance of French gastronomy harmonizes with the dynamic energy of Shanghai.

From the moment you step through its softly lit entrance, CÉLINE welcomes you into an atmosphere of quiet sophistication. The interior blends minimalist architecture with warm textures—polished oak floors, soft linen drapes, and handcrafted tableware—creating an ambiance that is both intimate and inviting. Floor-to-ceiling windows offer gentle views of the city’s rhythm, while the open kitchen invites a glimpse into the precision and passion behind every dish.

A Culinary Journey Rooted in French Tradition, Inspired by the East

At the heart of CÉLINE is a philosophy: less noise, more flavor. Our menu, crafted by an internationally trained culinary team, draws deeply from classic French techniques, yet subtly embraces local influences and seasonal ingredients sourced from nearby markets and trusted regional suppliers.

Begin your experience with a delicate foie gras terrine with Shaoxing wine jelly, a dish that bridges French luxury with Chinese terroir. Savor the slow-braised beef cheek in red wine sauce, tender and rich, served with truffle mashed potatoes—a signature favorite among returning guests. Seafood lovers delight in the pan-seared scallops with yuzu beurre blanc, where Japanese citrus adds a bright, local twist to a French classic.

For breakfast, CÉLINE offers a curated all-day menu that balances indulgence and wellness. Choose from flaky croissants with house-made preserves, free-range eggs any style, or a Shanghai-inspired congee with poached egg and scallion oil—a nod to the city’s heritage, served on fine porcelain.

Thoughtfully Crafted Beverages & After-Dinner Moments

The beverage program at CÉLINE is equally meticulous. Our sommelier-curated wine list features boutique selections from Bordeaux, Burgundy, and the Loire Valley, alongside a growing collection of new-world vintages. For those seeking something closer to home, we offer premium Chinese teas, locally distilled baijiu pairings, and a refined cocktail menu that includes the “Huangpu Bloom”—a floral gin-based cocktail with osmanthus and lychee, served with a twist of lemon zest.

After dinner, guests are invited to linger in the library lounge adjacent to the restaurant, where soft jazz plays under warm lighting, and a selection of artisanal digestifs and petit fours are offered—a perfect end to a memorable meal.

Perfect for Every Occasion

Whether it’s a romantic dinner, a business luncheon, or a quiet breakfast before exploring The Bund (just 2km away), CÉLINE adapts effortlessly to the rhythm of your stay. The restaurant offers private dining for up to 12 guests, ideal for intimate celebrations or corporate gatherings, and our team is happy to customize menus for special occasions.

Guests of Demores Hotel enjoy priority reservations and exclusive breakfast packages, while walk-ins and external diners are warmly welcomed—making CÉLINE not just a hotel restaurant, but a destination in its own right.
