I loved By Antidote, one of the best Sichuan spots in the city. The space is sleek and classy, great for a nice dinner out.
The food was amazing. The glazed eggplant, mala pork soup dumplings, cold Sichuan noodles, wontons in chili, and sweet short ribs were all standouts. Every dish had bold, well-balanced and authentic flavors.
I will definitely be going back. If you love Sichuan food, this place is worth checking out.

Pretty solid spot. Food is a little fusion but works well! All the dishes we got were delicious. Not super spicy for my standards but I guess they’re appealing to a broader audience. Got the spicy wonton and cabbage (neither very spicy but tasty) for appetizers, got the pig trotters, prawn vermicelli glass noodles and beef / tofu dish. All very tasty! Definitely worth checking out.

Delicious Chinese food. Really enjoyed the fried rice, chicken, string beans, and especially the dessert. The hen was a bit dry and the tofu sand texture wasn’t my jam, but still worth a try.
Fun spot. Great hangout venue with good vibes and not overly loud or crowded.

Really nice intimate atmosphere with great service. The kungpao chicken was a little salty for me, but the rest of the food was wonderful and the portions are perfect for sharing!

Food was pretty good! The century egg with burrata was astonishing and tasted better than I expected. The lychee gulu pork is too sweet for my taste even though the meat was juicy!! The peppercorn beef is a bit chewy and not spicy enough. The Dan Dan noodles are hard to mix because the noodles are kind of stuck together. String beans were amazing! The brown sugar rice cake mochi were soooo yummy. The lava buns were also on point. Would recommend for dates, group dinners, and even company dinners! Our server, Suling, was attentive and caring throughout the night. Made great menu suggestions according to our dietary restrictions and allergies! Very knowledgeable of the ingredients and menu!!

A wonderful, relatively new restaurant by the Antidote team! We ordered the chestnut short ribs (on the CNY menu), eggplant, and duck shumai. The eggplant was so addictive and cooked perfectly while the shumai was the perfect appetizer. The short rib was noticeably not very tender, and the sauce was slightly too heavy and sweet. The chestnuts were a great addition, and helped balance out the strong flavor. Overall, an enjoyable meal, but would appreciate short ribs that fall apart more easily.

I visited during their soft opening, the food, service and ambiance were all top notch. Came here with my family for Sunday brunch and we had a great time! The staffs were so kind and attentive. Food came out fast and we enjoyed everything we ordered. The atmosphere is cozy, inviting and the interior was beautifully designed especially the selection of lights on the ceiling and walls. My favorite dishes has to be the century egg and burrata, lychee gulu pork, pork belly with mustard greens, duck fried rice, eggplant and the cauliflowers. I would definitely come back to try everything else including the drinks next time!

The atmosphere and food are amazing. We ordered a crab tofu dish, green beans, braised pork, century egg burrata, and tea duck fried rice. Shopon (the waiter) was super attentive and made the experience so pleasant.
