Editorial Review for China Grill – by John P. McCarthy
The Scene
Located in the lobby level of famed "Black Rock," the CBS headquarters building, it's one of the busiest bars in Gotham, filled with attractive folks in suits yelling at each other over the din. The dramatic space complements the food and will wow out-of-towners.
The Food
The consistently scrumptious Pan-Asian food is a secondary consideration when you're trying to chat up a 26-year-old who, unbeknownst to you, is in a position of great power. But to seal the deal, a table for two and a few bites of grilled salmon on greens or lamb in mandarin orange sauce is the way to go. Food like this can be found in other cities, but the combination of architecture, arrogance and mouthwatering aromas is strictly a New York phenomenon.

Last night we held a company dinner here- it was fabulous, everyone had a wonderful time! The dinner coordinator, Ela, was completely on the ball with everything in regards to planning the dinner - she had great follow up and organization. The food was delicious, the portions very generous. The servers were incredibly attentive - the dinner ran exceptionally smooth with no hiccups.

I read the recent reviews of China Grill and I think the problem is that people do not know in advance what to expect. All main courses at China Grill, whether on the regular or restaurant week menu, are large portions meant for sharing. Thus, they are priced accordingly. A main dish can set you anywhere between $30 and $60, but when you consider that you receive enough food for two, this is not bad at all. My friends and I went to China Grill last night for the restaurant week. Unlike the previous reviewer, we found it to be a very good deal. For the two appetizers we choose, one main course, and two desserts, we would have paid $94 on a regular night. The restaurant week brought it down to $70. Unlike many other places, which during the restaurant week serve dishes normally not found on the regular menu, China Grill servers some of their most popular everyday items, including the sashimi tempura, calamari salad, spicy dumplings, and skirt steak. We actually ordered all of the above and found them well prepared and delicious. Apart from the food, which all people in our party immensely enjoyed, the service was below average. A couple of drinks we ordered never came and generally, it took much longer than usual for the food to arrive. The check had an item that we did not order or consume, but that was easily fixed. All in all, I recommend this place and look forward to my next visit. I went to China Grill last night with a group of friends. We decided to order from the restaurant week menu,
Pros: food
Cons: service
