When we heard that Da Marco was opening a new location in Xujiahui it was the most exciting news we'd heard in a long time. Already, Da Marco's main location on Dongzhu An Bang Lu has been serving up Shanghai's most reliably good Italian and arguably the very best pizza in town. Da Marco's second location on the pedestrian street Yandang Lu was disappointing, so we had our fingers crossed to see if the new Xujiahui branch would be able to live up to the original's standards.
