    Sauteed Chinese Broccoli
    Ted P.

    Chili has pretty solid Chinese food that feels elevated. The interior feels classy and has relatively dim lighting. The service was pleasant and the food came out very quickly! For food, I tried the braised tofu with crab meat with rice, the sautéed Chinese broccoli, and beef with pickled chili. All of the food was great with the tofu and crab having a strong umami flavor and the beef having a nice kick of spice to it. My favorite was definitely the tofu with crab so I'd highly recommend trying it. The portion size was pretty large and I definitely had some leftovers after. I'll definitely come back to try more dishes!

    Stopped in while in town for work and was glad that they were able to find me a drop in table. The atmosphere is throwback cool-- it reminded me of films depicting Shanghai in the '30s/'40s. Retro decor and dark lighting added to the dinner vibe. The menu is quite extensive and it took a few minutes to decide. I went with the chili oil vermicelli and 3 pepper chicken. The glass noodles were tasty and had a nice balance of ingredients while the chicken, while full of flavor, was so salty I could barely get past a few bites. And I'm talking salt lick level. The service was snappy and water refills were spot on. Overall, it didn't live up to the hype and my $40 dinner was average at best. So meh marks on value.

    Jellyfish Salad Fried carp Three Pepper Chicken Sauteed Chinese Broccoli

    Came with 3 other people, around a 1 hour wait on a Friday night. But they let you join the waitlist over the phone! Really appreciated that We ordered one appetizer, 3 proteins, and a veggie and we were STUFFED by the end of it The fried carp was really interesting, great flavor and unique The three pepper chicken was not my favorite, a bit too much green peppers for my liking. The chicken itself was a bit dry Jellyfish salad was okay as well, the chili sauce that it's in seemed to be generic The sautéed Chinese broccoli was also kind of plain, not much unique to it

    Braised pork belly
    Elizabeth X.

    Authentic and delicious Szechuan food (with dimsum options). The pork belly, Dan Dan noodles, string beans, and steamed bass were all amazing and flavorful. The fried carp was good, but to be honest not that spicy or mala as we expected based on the three chili symbols next to it on the menu. The eggplant with garlic was also good, but a little mushy. The tang yuan (rice wine soup) had a super fun twist and presentation with dry ice coming out the bottom (but I do prefer larger tang yuan with more black sesame paste inside). The ambiance is very nice. We had a reservation for 5:30, and it was pretty full by the time we left at around 7.

    Da chicest Chinese spot! The space itself is cute and quaint. Service attentive and efficient. And the food was very flavorful and a wide variety of options that include vegan options.

    Dan dan noodles
    Karen L.

    The food is solid, and that's coming someone who has had a lot of legit Chinese spots in LA. I even wished this place was in LA, because I thought the beef roll was one of the best I've had with its flaky crust and flavorful beef inside. The beef tenderloin with the truffle oil was also melt-in-your-mouth good and neat presentation with the dry ice underneath the platter of beef. For more presentation fun, get the bubble dream drink where they shoot out a bubble on top of your drink and they know you're here for the gram so will take your time making sure you're ready before they do the presentation.

    Soup dumplings
    Steph W.

    Ambiance (5/5): Feels sleek and elevated in here. The aroma of the dishes permeated the room that made my tummy rumble with excitement!! Service (5/5): We were attended to from beginning to end. The food came out lightening fast, like within 10 minutes! Food: Pro tip - look at their online menu on their website because it has pictures of the dishes! Dan Dan noodles (4/5): Great taste but there was nothing to write home about. Soup Dumplings (4/5): The server advised us that the order would take at least 15min to cook as a heads up! The dish was very good. Well we accidentally ordered two dishes with similar flavor profiles (our fault). Both of which are very flavorful and spicy! Spicy Cumin Lamb (5/5): Very flavorful but be careful to those that can't handle spicy! Sautéed Beef with Pickled Chili (5/5): The beef was so tender! Definitely preferred this one over the lamb dish.

    Wow what a great experience at this schezuan restaurant in midtown manhattan. Came here recently for a work dinner so was able to try a variety of dishes. We were sat at family style table and the ambiance was cozy and intimate. Service was quick and the food came out fast! Highlights were the soup dumplings, bokchoy and cucumber salad but everything was delicious! The spice level is high on the main dishes so make sure you ask if you have any restrictions (the mild still felt spicy for me ). Highly recommend!

    Kung Pao Chicken
    Lauren M.

    So happy I found this spot online! Got lucky not having a reservation because this small spot was PACKED. Food was so fresh and delicious. I could eat the Dan Dan noodles all day everyday! They also had some spectacular meat selections but manly tried the smaller plates. Will love to try more next time!

    Go to get your spice cravings met Wowed by the heat Ambiance was very busy and a little corporate Menu was diverse, lots to choose from, can definitely get your meat cravings fulfilled here too - we got the dan dan noodles which was dinner and a show because they mix it for you

    Amanda W.

    Order chili for lunch and got a lunch special of the 3 spice chicken. It also came with a choice of white or purple rice and a soup (hot and sour or bean soup). I got the purple rice and the bean soup (however the bean soup was weird, it was a pureed consistency with no flavor). However I really enjoyed the chicken and the purple rice. For a lunch it was a good portion and kept me full. I would absolutely order again.

    Chris D.

    Another fab meal here. This time we tried the Kung Pao Shrimp, which was fab. Full of juicy shrimp, a nice crunch from the peanuts and a little spice with the peppers. I introduced a couple of friends this restaurant last night and they loved it too.

    When first walking in, I felt like I was transported to a movie set of Chinatown set in the early 2000's. The ambience feels a bit off and the minty green walls feel unbalanced especially with the bright rich colors of the food. I want to preface the rest of this review that I thought the food was excellent and would definitely come back for it, but the alcoholic drinks were some of the worst we've ever had. I almost threw up just from the taste. I'd warn not to drink the alcohol (which is a shame because alcohol typically goes so well with spicy food), but order the food with confidence. If you're looking for a good place to eat but don't want to drink and are looking to be in and out, then I'd recommend checking this place out with your friends.

I was warmly greeted by the gentleman at the door (5 service there), which set a great first impression. However, as soon as I walked downstairs, it felt like the space had lost its speakeasy vibe. I was seated right near the stairs and could feel cold air from outside every time the door opened, which made the experience uncomfortable. I was also surprised to see how much the cocktail menu had been reduced. When I asked about it, the response was that "the place changed a lot." That's fair -- places evolve -- but instead of highlighting the improvements or new strengths, the explanation focused negatively on what the bar used to be. As someone who really enjoyed the former version, that wasn't reassuring. Unfortunately, the drinks themselves didn't make up for it. One of the two cocktails was simply not good. No one came back to check on the drinks, and when I asked for the check after about 20 minutes, there was no acknowledgment that I had barely touched mine or any inquiry about my experience. Overall, a place I once enjoyed and recommended now feels more like a standard dive bar where " Mixologist " were replaced by bartender and were fun cool looking and tasty drinks were replaced by " less complex cocktail ", lacking the warmth and attention to detail that once made it special.

Lo and behold, she did have a table for us - as long as we were out in an hour and a half, which was just the right amount of time. Stepping into this place feels like you're in some secret, super special cocktail club. Decor is super high end, vibes are upscale AF.

The mint Moroccan tea gave the drink a cool, refreshing taste on every sip. I also tried the Silver Screen, the closest drink I could find to an old fashioned. It was interesting, there was definitely a hint of a buttery taste. Overall a really balanced bourbon drink. I walked in and found room at the standing tables. A bar seat eventually opened up but I was already on my second drink by then. Definitely make reservations if you're planning a visit!

For drinks, we ordered the Smoke Show and the King Tusk. The Smoke Show was beautifully balanced. The Grey Goose vodka and Dolin Dry gave it that classic martini backbone, but the fino sherry and brine added depth. The smoked olive oil and blue cheese olive brought just enough savory drama without overpowering the glass. It was complex but not fussy. The King Tusk leaned more aromatic and layered. The vermouths gave it richness, while the Buddha's Hand and osmanthus flower added subtle citrus and floral notes that lingered in a really elegant way. It felt like a cocktail designed to be savored slowly. The music fit the mood perfectly, not too loud, just enough to give the room energy without killing conversation. Overall, it's a great spot if you want elevated drinks in a space that feels transportive without being pretentious. Definitely a place I'd come back to when I'm in the mood for a refined, slightly cinematic night out in Flatiron.
