China 1 = Perfection

by SheetzBeatz

Love this place!!! So glad I found a place in the lower eastside that serves good chinese food. Sesame beef is to die for!!! The decor in the place blew my mind, you totally wouldn't expect it from the outside. Downstairs there is two dance floors with two different DJ's, both spinning good, classic music. This place was great, top to bottom. Highly recommended!!!

• Pros: Food, decor, music

Meet my imagination of NY underground scene

by babyseeds

If you've lived in NYC for a while and are disappointed about all the cool joints were disappeared - and you refuse to go to those boring, over-priced clubs or simple dive bars, you should check out this place in east village! I went to China 1 last Friday for the first time and was amazed how well done this 3-space wonderland is. It was beautifully decorated, staff were cool and low-key, DJs spinned old schoole tasty hip hop and disco, and there was a nice crowd swinging. I heard they have different theme every night, definitely check out Friday!

Fun place to go to at night and friends enjoyed food

by FlynnJ

I went to China 1 Lounge last night for a friends birthday and it was my first time there. The people were nice, the DJ played great music, and a bartender/server made the whole experience delightful. She always served with a smile on her face, was quick to pick up a request, and when she couldn't come through with a request, she handled it like an expert. Even though it being slightly crowded bothered me, she sealed the deal on the overall experience and will gladly go back to your restaurant & lounge.

• Pros: Great service, awesome music, good bartenders
• Cons: slight crowded
