Opened in 2013, Dongzizhang currently has nearly 10 branches in Shanghai, and has won the honor of "Shanghai Popular Hot Pot Chain Brand" issued by the Shanghai Chain Store & Franchise Association, and has a good reputation among Shanghai Sichuan-style hot pot restaurants.

There are more types of pot bottoms than the previous ones, including traditional butter red pot, bone broth pot, mushroom soup pot, tomato pot, as well as the popular tom yum soup pot and bullfrog pot, as well as the slightly peculiar oxtail pot. When the red soup pot is served on the table, a large piece of butter that has not yet melted makes people feel full of ingredients, after all melting, the color of the whole pot bottom is dark, unlike the bright red and mellow bottom of the pot of Da Longyi, the taste of the bottom of the pot is full of stamina, the taste will not become light after adding water, and it will not be too bitter and salty after eating.

In addition to setting up stores in Shanghai, Dongzizhang also has dozens of branches in Anhui. Therefore, Dongzizhang has set up a central factory in Hefei, and most of the ingredients in Shanghai are processed and distributed by the Hefei factory, and the management is relatively standardized. Xiaolong lion's head is a hot pot with East China characteristics, which is relatively rare in other hot pot restaurants, and the lion's head with starch is still delicate on the inside after being cooked for a long time, which is very similar to the taste of coriander balls in Chongqing hot pot, suitable for meat lovers. Like Brother Laoguan, Dongzizhang's yellow throat is also a bezoar throat, which is thicker than ordinary pig yellow throat and tastes more crisp. The fresh bamboo sunflower is amazing, the milky white bamboo sunflower looks soft, but the entrance is crisp and tender after scalding, which is very pleasantly surprised. Although the six-second grouper fillet is thinly sliced, the taste is relatively ordinary, the goose intestines and duck intestines taste a little soft, and occasionally the processing is not clean enough, these dishes are not recommended to order.

Compared with many fiery and quaint hot pot restaurants, Dongzizhang's storefront is more recognizable. The interior decoration combines tradition and modernity, including antique tables and chairs, door god paintings, leather sofas, crystal curtains, and wrought iron plants. The service staff is thoughtful and courteous, ordering, serving, and adding soup are relatively timely, and the response speed may be reduced during peak hours, but the attitude will not make people feel dissatisfied. There is little difference in the environment, dishes and services of several branches, and friends can choose nearby.
