We found the terrace to be be a great place to escape the busy Shanghai streets. The service was great both times and we found the food comaparable, if not better, than many tapas options in Sydney. Would definitely recommend it. On holidays in Shanghai in May with my partner, Mum and Aunt and Uncle (for my Mum’s birthday) we had lunch at The Fat Olive twice.

Would definitely recommend it.

At least you were allowed in. My party and I didn't make it past inspection, possibly because we weren't fashionably-enough dressed, or possibly because we mentioned that one of our number who hadn't arrived yet would be bringing their baby. I've not encountered snippiness from service staff like that in over a decade. I was quite frankly shocked, and I used to be a member at several fairly exclusive clubs in Europe. Fat Olive? Fat chance in my book. Ha! At least you were allowed in.

I was just there yesterday, for the first time. I don't think I'll become a regular either. :) Fun to check out, though. Whoa, what a coincidence… I was just there yesterday, for the first time.
