This soon-to-be-the-second-highest-building-in-Shanghai is a nice (and expensive) place to spend your evenings. There are several bars, among which the most popular one is Cloud Nine on the top (88th) floor. I you don’t have a reservation it might be difficult to get in though, so if you can settle for a lower altitude there is a nice piano bar on the 53 floor as well. I is located a bit off in Pudong, but the view over Shanghai is spectacular.
