    Wonderful experience. Our waiter, Sara, was super attentive, fun, and creative with suggestions. Thank you also to Tony, our diligent bus man, and Erick, the amazing bartender, for leveling up our experience. Of course it wouldn’t have been a true dining experience without the unique talents of Chef Johnny and owner Josiah Citrin. We can’t wait to go back!

    I've been a patron of Chinois since its opening 41 years ago and it's always excellent. Last night was no exception. We shared a couple of the specials including the crab cakes topped with a large shrimp, an eggplant dish and some of the old standbys including the veggie fried rice and the chicken salad and more. All was delicious, the service attentive and the staff super friendly. A visit by Wolfgang himself who stopped by to chat along with the ever present front of the house - Bella just further enhanced the evening.
