Xin Rong Ji holds one Michelin star and operates from the PA Mall inside the Ping An Finance Center in Futian District, specializing in Jiangzhe and Taizhou-style seafood built around live tanks stocked with daily flown-in catch. Signature dishes include yellow croaker cooked in rice wine, drunken crab, and a selection of live seafood priced by weight and prepared to order, from steaming to stir-frying. The dining room is bright and businesslike, with large round tables suited to shared banquet-style meals and a steady flow of office workers from the surrounding towers at lunch; the atmosphere is lively rather than quiet, especially during peak lunch and dinner hours. Because pricing depends on live seafood priced by weight, dinner for a table can run considerably higher than lunch, and guests are encouraged to ask staff for current market prices before ordering. Reservations through Dianping or by phone are recommended for dinner, particularly on weekends when the live-seafood tanks draw crowds from across Futian.
