Chef Zhao Kitchen, located in Palo Alto, CA, specializes in traditional Shanghainese cuisine often referred to as Shanghai Fusion or Hu cuisine. This popular southern Chinese culinary style is characterized by its complex flavors and cooking techniques influenced by the surrounding provinces of Jiangsu and Zhe-Jiang, featuring dishes that are typically red and shiny due to soy sauce pickling.

The restaurant, which opened its doors on May 27, 2016, offers an intimate dining experience with three private dining rooms suitable for small events. In addition to a diverse menu featuring cold appetizers, dim sum, soups, and seafood dishes, Chef Zhao Kitchen also provides business catering and party tray services to meet clients' catering needs.
