Reviews on Cafe China
- Bloggers
"Still, those quibbles are largely technical, minor concerns with a vast and varied menu that gives both adventurous and less adventurous diners plenty to read and an awful lot to enjoy. Café China bills itself as "East embracing West"; but we're just happy to see Manhattan embracing more excellent Sichuan."
— Serious Eats:NY"Atmosphere-wise the restaurant is a step up from both Szechuan Gourmet and Lan Sheng with a sleek 1930s Paris meets Shanghai vibe."
— Midtown Lunch"I think the main problem for Cafe China is that they're so close to Szechuan Gourmet, and for the mapo tofu dish, it's a little over a dollar cheaper at SG and you can switch the soup to coke. Since Cafe China isn't vastly better, I'll probably stick to Szechuan Gourmet for mapo tofu."

"With so many expert chile-wrangling chefs, surely there’s space for a restaurant where a casually cool retro interior can be home to Sichuan’s enveloping heat."
