NANJING IMPRESSIONS (DEJI PLAZA)

There are many branches in Nanjing city and should have no problem to locate one. Most are local dishes and have unique local flavour and characteristics. Order a beer with you as food are quite salty and taste pretty rich and heavy. Variety is broad...and more people can order more dishes to try. Which one is good really is personal taste. Service is very good and price is not expensive. Seats may not be perfect as most are without backing. The name “Dai Pai Dong” originally means street food stall but now it has moved into shopping mall and upgraded the quality of food but still maintained some traditional features like stool chair or bench seat. Of course there are some private section which has better arm chairs. So it is your choice.More

Go Where Local Goes

This is a place where the local people goes, you bet you can’t go wrong with it! Don’t know what to order? Not to worry, there are photos on each dish n there are English. Not sure if it takes good? Not to worry, there...are seal stamps on each photo, of course the more of the stamps on the photo the better! No need to bring money either, scan the WR code to worry n to pay! Many places now do not take cash in China now! Not even the so called “plastic”.More

SUPERB HOT POT

One of the best Hot Pots in Nanjing. In a very elegant mall adjacent to the Westin hotel. English/Mandarin menus. Very helpful waitresses who assisted in selecting the meat and seafood. Overall, an extremely delightful experience

this restaurant is permanently closed

We went to look for this restaurant on the 7th floor of Deji Plaza on November 8th, 2019 and found it was not there. We asked staff of two other restaurants on 7th. floor and was told this Nanjing Impressions closed permanently. Next day, we...ate at Nanjing Impressions on Shiziquiao Pedestrian Street that was opened and when walked in the Conficius Temple area, we noticed the Nanjing Impressions there was opened as well.More

The most innovated Chinese local food

It combines the best of the best of street foods of Nanjing, which many are not seen in today's China. It gives each Nanjinger of the older age a kind of memory of the past and gives the younger a good taste of the tradition.

This is a decent experience if you are travelling to Nanjing

The food is good enough here and the food is decent so nothing too scary for the unwary traveller. They are all over the place - but as I said decent enough, I live in Nanjing and have been a couple of times.

Excellent atmosphere with okay food

This place has great wooden "cubbies" where your party can dine in relative privacy, Chinese-style archways, and lots of paper lanterns. The service and food are mostly just okay, but I let my colleague order, so perhaps I could have found better choices. He said...this is a chain and not that special of a place to eat. It's in a mall, so that could be, but the atmosphere is great.More

Excellent and worth the wait

Visited as a guest of my local Nanjing colleague on my business visit to the city and was impressed by the taste and quality of food and remarkable efficiency of the service (once seated in the restaurant). Quite a long early evening wait for table,...but worth it in the end. Thank you.More

Good taste at reasonable price

You must try the taste of Nanjing at least once. I love their salt duck the most. However, the duck streamed bun quite disappointed, too oily.
