Best Neighbourhood Gem Restaurants in Theater District

We've been here a few times and every time has been an outstanding experience. The ingredients are always of good quality. My favorite broth is their Guizhou Red Suantang. This fermented tomato-based broth has plentiful aromatic Chinese herbs and is a stand-out broth for its tangy and complex flavor that you won't forget! I wish I could bottle it and take it home! I've also tried their black bone chicken broth and classic mala, both are good "old reliables" - the classic mala gets hotter the longer it's been cooking! Each time we've been the service has been attentive without being smothering, all the vegetables are fresh, fresh, fresh! The housemade shrimp paste is wonderful, and the spicy dumplings are some of the best I've had anywhere. I love that you can get a great variety of mushrooms with their platters, their black fungus never disappoints, always big, plump, and succulent! Don't sleep on the fish roe salad balls, they are DELICIOUS, but be careful not to cook them too long or the liquid center becomes molten hot. Highly recommend making reservations, it gets BUSY here and for good reason!

The hot chocolate and the pastries were delicious! The staff couldn’t have been nicer. The Christmas decorations, fireplace and ambience completed the scene. My wife loved it! You may need to reserve a few days in advance. If you have a sweet tooth and want to take someone special, they will love it.

We had an excellent lunch experience at bistro du midi. We were a party of 6 out for a mother-daughter shopping outing and lunch. Food was delicious. Service was outstanding. Ambiance made the event feel very special and memorable.

Truly immaculate service and our group of six felt taken care of. Not to mention the food was incredibly decadent, the environment was welcoming and quiet to ensure a pleasurable dining experience. Would highly recommend to our friends and loved ones.

Great place to go before a show! Delicious food and fast service. They know how to get out out in time for the theatre. We go to The Back Deck all the time and have never been disappointed!
