Shanghai Moon Opens in Place of Asia Palace in Medford

Shanghai Moon, a new Chinese and Japanese eatery, recently opened its doors where Asia Palace once stood at 442 Salem Street in Medford, according to Eater Boston.

Three months later, the once vacant space features a revamped interior, a bigger bar and a menu which boasts a variety of dishes.

While the restaurant’s menu is very similar to its predecessor’s, there are a few Boston themed choices that should grab the attention of the locals. Eater says there are new special rolls named after the Celtics and Bruins.

Shanghai Moon’s owner, Leo Wu, told Eater that his establishment intends to serve as more of a sports bar. Wu is aiming to have live entertainment on Friday and Saturday nights.

The restaurant is open daily from 11:30 p.m. to 10 p.m. Closing time is 11 p.m. on Friday and Saturday nights.
