We had a great dinner last night. The Chinese Negroni and Citrus Blossom were delicious. Soup dumplings as appetizers and Kimchi rice with pork belly were very tasty.

We were in town for the weekend and had a reservation at this restaurant from a recommendation. We booked last minute and came in around 8pm on a Sunday. The hostess was pretty friendly and showed us to our table promptly and provided water for the table. Our attendant showed up a few minutes later and helped us with menu questions. We ordered the fried calamari and pork potstickers for appetizers and we were not disappointed. The calamari was tender and the slivers of red and green peppers were tasty. The potstickers tasted great with the mustard dip; the strong mustard flavor is not for the faint of heart, but I liked it a lot. We ordered the kimchi fried rice with steak and the rendang curry with steak as well. Both were delicious! The level of spiciness was ok for my husband who’s not into spicy food. For drinks, we ordered the lychee martini, gin and tonic and another cocktail I can’t remember the name of. All were good and fairly strong. Overall, I would recommend this restaurant. The only thing I suggest for improvement in the service is the timing of our entrees, which were brought to our table immediately after the pork potstickers arrived. I expected the appetizers and entrees to be appropriately spaced out.

It's been awhile since we've been to ChoLon. We felt that the food was not quite as good as we've had in the past. Still a fun experience, but a bit short of expectations.
