Description:

  • Smack in the heart of trendy Alphabet City, China 1 Antique Lounge is a unique dining and special event destination. Zagat once rated us 26 for Decor, and we have been gaining popularity locals, industry professionals and trendsetters. Our brand new Pan-Asian and French inspired menu includes our signature Seafood Trio Martini of salmon, striped bass and white tuna with avocado, tobiko and seret sauce; Crab Croquettes with a roasted red pepper rĂ©moulade and chili ponzu dip; Sichimi Marinated Chilean Sea Bass with stir fry bean sprout, shitake and roasted pepper coulis; Five-Spice Chinese Sirloin with Truffle wasabi bonaito mash. Nestled beneath a beautiful restaurant sits a deceivingly sizeable lounge space. Antiques brought straight from China adorn the entire space. With separate rooms in an intimate, sexy 'speakeasy' labyrinthine layout we accommodate romantic dinners for two or private events of 200+. Live Jazz, DJ's, a hypnotic aquarium and a super friendly staff await you

    Everything you could want in a restaurant or lounge

Message from China 1

Cozy Affaire french bistro & lounge brings a Parisian touch to the lower east side's gastro-club scene. The bi-level labyrinth-like French lounge is designed to create an inviting space that mixes classic bistro looks, - the weathered wood ceilings, exposed brick walls and shadowy chandelier glow of a chateau. Below the restaurant down the narrow staircase there is a dual-level basement comprising of Candle Lounge and a Gold Room outfitted with antique mirrors, gold painted seclusive nooks and crannies. Executive Chef Edgar Navarrete has designed a menu inspired partly by recipes from owner Andrew Krauss's Parisian mother. The full menu is offered both up and downstairs. It will be our pleasure to assist you in arranging your next special event in order to ensure an unforgettable experience.
