Malone's American Cafe, Shanghai

Malone's provides a casual option for lunches, dinners and after-work drinks for the suit-and-tie crowd. Often mistaken to be American, Malone's is actually a Canadian chain (a wooden Canadian Mountie stands near the front!). A big, broad bar stretches the length of the interior. It is the place to get an ESPN fix or try your luck on the pool tables upstairs. Enjoy American fare in hearty American servings. Prepare to loosen those pants after dining on the burger platters. The menu displays some depth in its wide offering of pastas, Tex-Mex, and pan-Asian dishes.
