The food was incredible, the service fast, and friendly. This space was gorgeous – the former Chinese Opera House – thanks Chinese Tuxedo for the best celebration for Lunar New Year!!!
There were birthday parties and influencers taking pictures. We had the $88 banquet menu and the amount of food was obscene! Definitely stuffed after our meal. The oxtail buns, and hakashi crudo were divine starters. Also we ordered a burrata and cruller appetizer that was wow. Finishing with noodles, and fish and beef we were so full. But there’s always room for dessert. They brought out two desserts! Everything so delicious. Gung Hay Phat Choy – Happy New Year and happy money everybody

This was absolutely AMAZING! We had the best waiter, Karina, who was so kind and patient. We had two dietary restrictions celiac disease and vegetarian. We got two separate menus with just gluten free and vegetarian options. The inside is absolutely beautiful in here. The food was so delicious. Karina recommended the eggplant which is something we never would have gotten and it turned to be one of the tastiest things I ever had. Karina also shared interesting history of the restaurant which was cool to learn about. Thank you so much Chinese Tuxedo for being so great and having an exclusive menu!

I had to leave a review after having the most amazing experience here this weekend. It was my husband’s birthday and they were able to squeeze us in on a busy Saturday night. The service was outstanding — Ashley was our waitress and the hosts at the front were exceptionally kind and helpful (particularly the man in the sparkly jacket but we didn’t catch his name sadly).
On top of the service, the food was spectacular. Our waitress helped us choose a variety of shareable dishes and each one was phenomenal. I have pics of the half duck, dan dan noodles, and lobster noodles. We also ate the pork and chive dumplings, fried rice, sirloin, and fried eggplant. There isn’t any dish I wouldn’t recommend or get again!

If I’m being honest, the atmosphere and service were amazing, but the vegetarian food was not that great. We ordered for around 10-11 dishes (photos in the review), and it looks quite good. So, presentation is a 10/10 too.
Out of all the vegetarian dishes, the Burrata was the best. The cocktails were nice too. I would not recommend the tofu dish at all, we didn’t enjoy it. The eggplant dish was good.
So, in all I would say go for the non vegetarian dishes.

We had Matthew serving us for my birthday dinner and he had great recommendations like the beef and special shrimp fried rice. Great energy and demeanor. Manager/owner was also amazing, checking on us. Paradise park was a great drink as well as soju.

All the dishes were seriously so good! Three of us loved everything and our favorites were the fried eggplant and squid noodles. They do an amazing job with fried dishes! Lit every single one we tried was incredible. Definitely one of my favorite Chinese spots in the city. The portion was p small so recommend ordering multiple dishes. We got 4 appetizers, 3 main, and 2 desserts for three people and was a good amount

The best part about this spot is the atmosphere. It’s beautifully decorated and has a charming yet not too excessively classy vibe. Food-wise, I found most things were decent, although some were a bit too fusion-y for my personal taste. The most memorable meal was the XO crab butter noodles. Otherwise, the service was very attentive. I’d still recommend it if you’re looking for an elegant place to try, although if you’re looking for traditional Chinese cuisine, this place is not it.

My first time here last night the restaurant was very pretty. I love the way they decorated it for lunar new year. The menu options were just OK but what we ordered was good. My favorite was the eggplant from the dim sum menu. I would go back just for this specific dish. I didn’t really feel the vibe of the first server that we had. I felt like she was very condescending to us when she spoke just her tone and her energy wasn’t something that I would want to deal with before having a meal.
The server that we had when she left was amazing. He was fun. He was lighthearted, and it changed the tone of the meal completely. I feel like he was very professional, and he read the vibe of our table. Overall, I would come back to this restaurant because of the decor and try some of the new dishes they have on the menu
