Guangdong, China Food Guide: 10 European food Must-Eat Restaurants & Street Food Stalls in Dongguan
Find out what European restaurants to try in Dongguan. Dongguan is a prefecture-level city in central Guangdong Province of South China. An important industrial city in the Pearl River Delta, Dongguan borders the provincial capital of Guangzhou to the north, Huizhou to the northeast, Shenzhen to the south, and the Pearl River to the west. It is part of the Pearl River Delta megacity with more than 44.78 million inhabitants at the 2010 census spread over nine municipalities (including Macao) across an area of 17,573 square kilometres (6,785 sq mi). Dongguan's city administration is considered especially progressive in seeking foreign direct investment. Dongguan ranks behind only Shenzhen, Shanghai and Suzhou in exports among Chinese cities, with $65.54 billion in shipments. It is also home to one of the world's largest, though largely empty, shopping malls, the New South China Mall. Although the city is geographically and thus culturally Cantonese in the Weitou form and as well as culturally Hakka in the prefectures of Fenggang and Qingxi, the majority of the modern-day population speaks Mandarin due to the large influx of economic migrants from other parts of China.

Living on the outskirts of Dongguan, I always headed towards Dongguan city for western grub. Not necessary anymore. Winners is a fantastic place, very friendly and welcoming staff managed by Sam who is extremely pleasant. I've been here twice and had the Winners burger and a monstrous 16oz New Zealand ribeye. Both awesome food. Pricing is also very good, particularly compared to similar places in Dongguan. An unpretentious bar with great food good for all occasions. Many thanks for your review. We are glad you enjoyed your time at Winners and look forward to seeing you again soon!

Dongguan is a city for foodies. There are so many great places to go! I found it very average at Alan's & wouldn't recommend it. It's location is great so it's understandable why it gets traffic. It's in the middle of a Western strip of deli's & restaurants, and it's 5mins away from a cool mall called DynaTown. The Full English breakfast (for around ¥50) was underwhelming. They only offer white bread for the toast option (again, so 90's) and the hashbrown & bacon were fried in old oil. With so many fab places in the area (like Liberty Brewing Co literally opposite) I would not chose to go here again.Thanks for your review, we take all complaints seriously, as for your issue with the white bread for the toast, it has to be said that the large majority of our customers request white toast and therefore buying in brown bread ends up being a waste.Your oil comments were passed onto my manager , who assures me that fresh oil is used daily , and I think this is backed up by the huge amount of used oil we move out weekly.Over the years I have been in Dongguan, I have lost count of the number of damning reports I have read or heard from competitors about their opposition. I do hope that you enjoy the great beers etc in Liberty Brewing Co

Location - SUPER close to the Park Lane Hotel.Staff - all very kind and reserved. Leave you time to enjoy your meal but make sure that you receive good service.Food - I have been many times and enjoyed every meal. Pasta, fish and appetizers have been delicious every time.Decor - extremely well decorated and very relaxing for dinner after a long day of working.Prices - this restaurant is a treat if you are traveling for business on a travel budget. More like Hong Kong prices but well worth it after weeks of travel through Asia.I will always return to Grappa's on my travel to Chang'An!

A fantastic restaurant with fabulous atmosphere, great food and professional staff. The surroundings are excellent, I as staying at the Wanda Vista Dongguan and it's a 5min car ride. The Wacom is warm, the food terrific, waiting staff well trained and attentive so will continue to frequent this restaurant every time I'm in China on business. It's the type of establishment you can conduct a decent friendly business meeting, take the family or enjoy a romantic Italian evening with your loved one!! Great selection of Gin......and a great bar tender too. Love the Italian owners who wait the tables and add even more authenticity to the atmosphere.....well done, never tire of a night out here.Thanks

Maybe we were there on an unusually bad day. We were four and only one of us really raved about her food -- a pork roll. Two of us had the pork schnitzel in mushroom sauce and though the sauce was tasty the pork was dry and chewy. The last person in our group had one of the salads and said it was fine. The wait staff did fine but it wasn't like they made it a special experience to be there. We'll try again but for a first visit, I'd say it was a letdown.

If you're in China and craving thin crust pizza, Luigi's would be the place to go to. I've been eating at Luigi's for 9 years, all during business trips and staying at the Sheraton Dongguan (restaurant is located in the hotel). Have to say quality used to be better, but still very decent.

We were in China on business for 10 days, we used a service company that only wanted to take us to expat bars and dives, so bailed and made our own plans for dinner. Chose this place simply because it was near the top on TA (and we like Italian). As with the "Millionaire" TV prog, asking the audience paid off. Seated at a nice table outside (try to ignore the traffic behind the plants and dont think about the pollution - this is China). Wine was nice (let's get the priorities right). Finding good wine is an issue in China, but what is here is decent. Food was pretty decent too, nothing awfully memorable (if you want memorable try Tairyo Teppanyaki [é¿éåè·¯æç 广åº223å·] ) but on that night, in China, it was an oasis of European normality. The price was large. But hey, this is an Italian in China, you know it's expensive before you go, right? So it is what it is. For some reason, all our translators for days after kept saying "Oh, I thought that place closed" - if you are local you might know why; but it is open. Food is good, wine is good, service is good, and this in Dongguan so it is an oasis of stuff you know and like in a desert of chickens feet and stuff you might not choose to eat. Westerner in Dongguan and like food you recognise? This is the place.
