Featuring thick-cut, juicy steaks finished with a buttery crispness, this is an authentic, mobster-style hangout perfect for carnivorous high-rollers. Though a meal at this venue may not come cheap, complimentary truffle soup and fresh ingredients make this a not-to-be-missed fine dining experience.

Description -
Roosevelt Prime Steakhouse is located in the heart of Shanghai’s old French Concession, tucked away off the street at 160 Taiyuan Lu, beside the uber-exclusive Marshall Mansion Boutique Hotel. The steakhouse, with its velvet curtains, dark wood paneling and leather banquette seating provides a luxurious alternative to Shanghai’s contemporary dining scene. Roosevelt serves steakhouse steaks – big, thick cuts that are all 16ozs (448g) or more. Diners can choose various cuts from tender filet mignon, flavorful New York Strip, marbled bone-in ribeye or a real Prime aged Porterhouse. For lighter fare, the kitchen also serves many other steakhouse favorites such as grilled salmon steaks, a juicy roast chicken, or whole roasted sea bass. Pair that with many creative starters or our classic Caesar salad prepared tableside and finish with one of Roosevelt’s delicious, homemade desserts. This is honest, delicious dining with superior ingredients you won’t find anywhere else in China.

I'm a certified carnivore and when we went there two nights ago, I knew I had found heaven on earth.
My eyes instantly went straight for the steaks section on the menu and I literally spent ages pondering over which cuts to order. In the end, I settled for the New York Strip with blue cheese as a side sauce - genius choice.
However, I won't be going back for while - not because of the service or the quality of the steaks, but because it's really expensive and as bobcat pointed above, the timing to spend more given the current economic climate cannot come at a worse time.
Thumbs up to Roosevelt and what it stands for though! Great steaks.

Shanghai's Best Steaks | Presidential Cuts
For an extravagant steak meal, there's no topping this excellent American-style steakhouse. This restaurant, located in the former French Concession, is draped with twinkling, grand crystal chandeliers and done up in dark wood and leather and candles. A VIP cigar room even features name plated recliners. Pictures of former President FDR, provided by co-owner and presidential grandson Delano Roosevelt, will make you feel like like a Roosevelt too.
Though you pay for that privilege, the quality of steak is the best that money can buy, especially if you like an extra-buttery sear on a cut of Flintstonian proportions. After savoring a complimentary taste of truffle and garlic infused chicken soup, we tried The Delmonico (RMB650), a thick, moist, incredibly fresh tasting 16 ounce rib-eye with a glowing pink, ahi tuna like center. Even more gargantuan was The Butler (RMB1000), a bone in filet also weighing in at 16 ounces. This uniformly tender, leaner steak is an exceeding rare cut of meat. Both straight to our plates from the blazing stone oven. Lounging into our seats, we check "eat like a president" off our list of things to do. Joanne Yao

Great place to go if you enjoy dark wood paneling, nice atmosphere, a lovely staff and a really tasteful Caesar salad made at your table. If you enjoy all this pomp and circumstance by all means indulge yourself but don't go there if you love steak. This review is being written by two men from Texas (where steak is king). The filet mignon, which was ordered well done, came to the table with a warm red center. It was sent back to be properly cooked. The New York strip, which was ordered medium rare, came to the table with a bloody red center. Fortunately this idiot likes rare steak as well and did not send it back. (To send back a steak cooked rare that has been taken off the grill and has cooled down to have it cooked to medium rare will just dry out the meat as it changes the color a little bit.) And besides the fact that the chef does not know how to cook steak, the alleged Black Angus steak itself was tough. The Chilean wine was very good, but to pay USD60 for a badly cooked tough steak is not my idea of a good restaurant. We did get a free dessert for sending back the steak to have it properly cooked. Maybe we should have sent the other one back and got a free cigar, but then if a steak house can't cook a steak I doubt that they can keep the humidity correct in the humidor.

I ate here over the New Year Holidays. I've been here a few times before. It definitely offers the best steak in China. Its selection of cuts is wonderful. It is definitely pricey, but after every bite of steak, I have no regrets to splurge once in a while. This last trip I had the Black Angus ribeye, medium rare. Its one of the more affordable steaks. I also have had the New York strip, and the USDA Prime ribeye.All the steaks I've had have been cooked just about perfect. I sample side dishes of truffle macaroni and cream spinach. Both were delicious. For starters, I had the french onion soup, fois gois with toast and ceasar salad. Also delicious. To finish the meal, we had awesome desert, including chocolate with hot fudge, creme bulee and souffle. Definitely a wonderful meal. And will save up to return in the near future.

Roosevelt is the best place for steak in Shanghai, the only place in town that has real USDA Prime and Black Angus beef. The fact that it is often empty just makes a more intimate dining experience. It is certainly not inexpensive - but use the eHa telephone booking to get sizeable discounts.

Simply put, Roosevelt Prime Steakhouse is a true blessing to Shanghai.
I've eaten at Roosevelt maybe 10 times over the past year, and I can also say it's quite consistent. And yes, it's very expensive. Eating there requires a minor investment decision.
Here you can get a steak that is on a distinctly higher level than other steakhouses in Greater China. Better than Hong Kong / Macau branches of Morton's and Ruth Chris, and certainly better than anything I've had in China thus far.
Does anyone else know of an amazing steak in Shanghai?

To some, spending ¥1,250 on a steak, however good, is revolting, beyond extravagant. Fine. Don’t do it. Go spend it on your savings account instead. For this reviewer, it’s an outlay for a pleasure worth every mao, because at Roosevelt, the steak in question is a 28-day-aged Porterhouse 672g steak. While that price will make many choke, there are cheaper cuts, starting from the 227g filet mignon, at ¥300. But the best, as with the Porterhouse, are unashamedly expensive because they are USDA Prime, America’s highest standard of beef. Others in this category include an ¥875 bone-in rib eye, or the slightly more approachable ¥650 448g rib eye (really, does one person need more than 448g of steak?). They’re wonderfully marbled with fat, cut thick, and here, cooked expertly. If your obsession is with good meat, you should save up.
In truth, in this dining room, your focus won’t want to be anywhere else but the food. Ok, the retro classics such as Caesar salad prepared table side, complete with a rub of garlic around the wooden mixing bowl, or the duck confit with Puy lentils, are treated well by the kitchen. Non-steak mains, such as braised oxtail and beef cheeks, or roasted rack of lamb, though expensive, are good renditions. But the room itself is a half-baked attempt at gentlemen’s club grandeur. The leather chairs and cigar lounge seem like masculine atmosphere building, but the nauseous, circa 1980 lounge jazz and cowboy pictures on the wall undermine the effect. Forget that, and remember the thing you came for: the best steak in Shanghai.

My husband is a steak-lover so when we want a special treat we go to Roosevelt's. It is a prime steakhouse. Sure the price is high but the quality is great.
