Really enjoyed our visit. We were seated very quickly and the service was friendly and attentive. We ordered the fried rice, octopus, and calamari — everything was delicious, especially the fried rice and octopus. The calamari was a bit salty for my taste (and I’ve tried many salt-and-pepper fried dishes), but still well prepared. Overall, great food, smooth service, and a nice experience. Would definitely come back.

My boyfriend and I came here to continue our Christmas tradition of having Chinese food on Christmas Day, and for Christmas 2025, Tiger Fork did not disappoint!

To start, they have the best duck we’ve ever had for Christmas—it was incredible. We also ordered the chow fun, which was absolutely delicious, and the pork belly did not disappoint either. Everything was packed with flavor and cooked perfectly.

We also enjoyed their hot tea options from the non-alcoholic section.

I’m excited to come back and enjoy their food again, and I’d definitely recommend Tiger Fork to anyone—especially during the holiday season!

What a joke.
Visitied during the restaurant week. Btw if you are thru high school math, you’ll know that the restaurant week menu is just an attempt to upsell on the regular menu.(more expensice than ordering a la carte) and to simplify the menu for their convenience.

Food:
Fried rice: too salty and sugary.
The pork: gamey, distasteful.
The dimsum: this one was ok but yu noddle has it better at 1/3 of the price
Jah leung: kinda interesting but just doesn’t taste good… sorry

We ended up eating maybe 20% of the food before deciding to leave. The waitress didnt even say a thing, didn’t bother to ask if the food was ok or offered to pack it up. $110 well spent. Not coming back.

I had a great dinner here with some friends and would definitely recommend it for upscale Chinese in DC. The portions are generous and very shareable. We ended up splitting a few starters and entrees, including the sampler – it was plenty of food.

Also – really good vibes in here. Great bar. Big open kitchen. Give it a try!

The food was absolutely horrible. I hate that I even spent any money on it. I took it home and re-cook it to try to fix it. It was still pretty terrible, but it’s whatever I got the crispy pork, small portion and overcooked portion of pumpkin purée and cabbage on the side. I had to call to make a reservation because it said that they were completely full when I got there, there were hardly any people in there.

My advice is to go find a local mom and pop Chinese restaurant and eat there. It would be significantly better. I wish I had done that.

Love the alley location. Beautiful space. The flavors are very strong, maybe even overpowering in some cases. Although the noodles with mushrooms were oddly bland. The crispy eggplant was overly fried for my taste. My dinner companions loved it, though. Everything else was really good!

Sat at the Chefs Table on a Saturday night. Atmosphere was great and decor fits the restaurant. I had the Siu Yuk and the Crab Wontons- both very good as well. My one critique would be that the Siu Yuk would be better without unseasoned grilled squash. It did not taste good and had a negative mouth feel.

Hidden Gem in Chinatown – Tiger Fork

My niece accidentally discovered Tiger Fork when I told her we were heading to Chinatown, and what a lucky find it was! At first, we couldn’t figure out exactly where it was located—there’s no big sign, and we had to guess based on the Chinese decor outside. A quick Google search confirmed we were at the right spot, though no one online really mentioned which building it was. Heads up: there’s no on-site parking, but we found a spot on the side of the road nearby.

As soon as we walked in, we saw they’ve earned Michelin recognition for three years—and after tasting the food, we know why. Every dish was packed with flavor and beautifully presented. The crispy pork was the standout: not what I expected, but absolutely delicious! Crispy on the outside, melt-in-your-mouth tender on the inside, and paired with an incredible sauce.

The overall vibe of the restaurant is cool, unique, and modern with a twist of traditional. The staff was friendly and the service was great. We’re already planning our next visit. If you’re in the area, this place is a must-try. Highly recommend Tiger Fork!

Tiger Fork was decent overall, but nothing really blew me away. I ordered the combo fried rice, which was just okay, but not particularly memorable. The beef brisket was better than the fried rice, though still more solid than standout.

Ironically, my favorite part of the combo platter was the potatoes. They were the most enjoyable bite on the plate. Also worth noting: the combo platter is really sized for two people. Any more than that and you’ll likely still be hungry.

Nice atmosphere and an interesting menu, but for me it landed in the “okay, try it once” category rather than a must-return spot.

My wife and I have loved this place for years. The quality has remained consistent in all manners of the restaurant. Even with a chef change, the menu is still great. Our only wish is that the cheung fun would come back. That dish was on the menu back in 2019 and we still talk about it to this day.
