Zhoushan is a prefecture-level city under the jurisdiction of Zhejiang Province and one of the two prefecture-level cities in my country that were established on the basis of an archipelago. Zhoushan has three major advantages: fisheries, ports, and tourism. It is China's largest marine product production, processing, and sales base, and is known as the "Fish Warehouse of the East China Sea" and the "Fishing Capital of China".
The main species include more than 40 kinds of fish, such as hairtail, hairtail, mackerel, conger eel, mackerel, horseface fish, grouper, swimming crab and shrimp. The four major economic fish in Zhoushan are large yellow croaker, small yellow croaker, hairtail and cuttlefish.

I drove to Shenjiamen to play. It's a very good restaurant with a good environment. The dishes are served quickly and the taste is rich. I highly recommend it. There are 4 people who ordered a lot, so the average price per person is a bit higher.
Every time I go to Shenjiamen, I still choose Gaojiazhuang. If you go late, you have to queue up. But now you can make an appointment via WeChat. They will call you when you are in line. The service is very thoughtful. I won't say much about the dishes, just one word: great! The portion is also very large.

Zhoushan's two most popular seafood restaurants. I ate at Ayong on the first day. Before leaving, I thought that I couldn't eat such fresh crab roe in Shanghai, so I came to this restaurant again. The roe was very plump. I really like this restaurant. Next time I go, I will definitely eat here again. All the seafood is fresh.
Arrived at around 2pm. First of all, I was very impressed with the service attitude. They gave us steamed cakes and milk as gifts. The dishes were served very quickly. The taste was also very good. The pea sprouts were really delicious.

Super cost-effective seafood food stall! You can see all kinds of seafood in the store as soon as you enter the store! The boss is also sincere in doing business without tricks. The lobsters you buy are killed right in front of you, and they are all the same from the beginning to the end! [Taste] It is mainly boiled or steamed, and then served with scallion oil topping. The main feature is the original flavor of seafood!
I came out of Zhujiajian Wharf and took a bus to Shenjiamen, and found this restaurant. There was a set meal online, and the price was good, so I ordered it, and it didn't disappoint. The portion was large and the taste was good.

Kaiyuan Guantang Fanjing Kitchen is a small Starbucks counter next to the restaurant of Kaiyuan Guantang Hotel. It is very convenient to drink coffee and lunch. Due to the epidemic, there are very few people eating lunch. The dishes are very stable as always. The tea is also very delicious. Recommended. But the price is definitely twice as expensive as at the foot of the mountain, and it is about the same as other stores on the mountain.
Fanjing Kitchen is near Fayu Temple. If you are visiting near Fayu Temple, you can choose it, so you don't have to go back to Puji Temple.
The environment in the store is quite elegant, not many people, and very quiet. We ordered a 228 three-person vegetarian set meal, which was very delicate and delicious. I also asked for an extra bowl of rice. When I went to the front desk to pay, they said it was given to us without charge, which was a big surprise.

Ajie Restaurant, in fact, I checked this restaurant myself before going to Putuo Mountain. The reviews are really high, and the price is also acceptable. That day, when our family of three arrived at the B&B, it happened that this restaurant was just a few steps away from the back door of the B&B where we stayed. The boss saw us going out to find food at the door and said, come in and eat, our prices are not expensive, and we won’t charge you a penny if it’s not delicious. We thought about walking around to see if there was anything else to eat. After walking a few steps, there were many women soliciting customers on the road. We said we had eaten, but they still chattered and chased us for nearly 50 meters before we got rid of them. I really hate this. Later, I thought about going to Ajie’s house for dinner. On the one hand, it rained in Putuo Mountain on the night of October 16, and on the other hand, I was tired. I didn’t want to leave after driving for more than 4 hours in Shanghai. 2 adults and a child ordered 4 dishes. I really didn’t regret eating here. Chef Ajie’s cooking is so delicious. It’s just enough to eat and it’s economical for only 130 yuan. I can eat both meat and vegetables. I will come again next time. Please look at my photos specifically, they are taken of the real thing.
Autumn is the perfect time to visit Putuo Mountain, with pleasant weather, delicious seafood, and the opportunity to experience its profound Buddhist culture. I've prepared a detailed Putuo Mountain food guide for you, hoping your trip will both satisfy your taste buds and nourish your soul.

I can't thank Amy enough! This was my first time in Zhoushan, and my first time staying at the Westin Hotel. I came to the city for my dad's birthday. The seaside was so romantic! Tonight's dinner was booked in the hotel's Dongsha Hall. Amy, the waitress, was the most energetic person I've ever met. Her smile was so warm, like a sister, and her service was excellent. I highly recommend it to anyone dining here! I highly recommend Amy's service!
Very good, the taste is different, you can try it
