Best Hot Spot Restaurants in Chinatown

Amazing experience at Wayfare! Customer service was excellent before we ever even arrived. We needed to move our reservation back and they were so polite and helpful. Our wait staff was excellent, friendly and attentive without being overbearing. We ordered the fried chicken, rigatoni and tavern burger and every dish was absolutely perfect. 10 out of 10 from us, so much so we bought a gift certificate on the spot to give to friends to make sure they go too!

My husband and I go to Bix nearly every year for our anniversary, and it never disappoints. We love the deviled egg appetizer, the soups, and all the entrees we’ve tried. Last night the chocolate brioche bread pudding was the perfect way to end our evening.

Hands down the single best combo of authentic Chinese favorites executed at a high level and CA modern lively ambiance. Noteworthy: XLB and pan fried baos are juicy, Peking duck pockets are genius, all veggies are charred to perfection, and Kung Pao Chicken with the pasilla pepper twist is an unexpected delight. Ingredients, execution and atmosphere are all impressive. And the attached store has their tasty condiments and highest quality tea leaves you can find. Just go!

May you be lucky enough to have Kristopher as your server. Thank you to all the servers and staff for working on this Thanksgiving holiday to make it special for so many of us. House of Prime Rib is our favorite place to celebrate holiday and special occasions, and their staff definitely makes us always feel right at home.

Trestle is an exceptional dining experience, not just for the food but also for the incredible service! For $45, you get a beautifully curated 3-course meal, and we added the $12 supplement—worth every penny. We started with the persimmon toast with pâté and the butternut squash soup with Brussels sprouts and pomegranate seeds. Both dishes were hearty, flavorful, and a perfect way to kick off the meal. The clam pasta supplement was outstanding—rich, buttery, and zesty. Definitely a highlight! For entrees, we had the cod with celery root and the duck confit with blood orange. Both were perfectly cooked, with incredible attention to detail in flavor pairing. Dessert wasn’t my favorite, but that’s only because I was so full by the end! On top of the amazing food, the service was flawless. Everyone who served us was so friendly and pleasant, making the whole experience feel warm and welcoming. We also learned that the menu changes weekly to highlight seasonal ingredients, which makes me even more excited to return. Trestle is a must-visit for delicious food and fantastic service—highly recommend!
