China 1
Now: Affaire

Alphabet City’s got quite a past, but the neighborhood is now as swanky as it was gritty. Case in point: China 1 Restaurant & Lounge, a sleek spot which prepares authentic dishes with fresh ingredients and house-made sauces. Pair that goodness with intoxicatingly beautiful and potent cocktails like the pomegranate martini ($9) or sake. Exposed brickwork, plush carpeting, and antique Chinese furniture make this the perfect place to act like an emperor, complete with bottle service in pillowed booths. China 1’s happy hour runs Monday through Friday (5:30pm-7:30pm) with sake bombs ($6 each or two for $10) and specials on beers, shots, and well drinks. Plus, for $25, from 9pm-midnight, Sunday through Friday, the booze wont stop flowing. And if you're in need of a private party, the downstairs lounge has a live DJ and holds up to 200. It all adds up to a lavish taste of the Orient on Avenue B.

Interesting space, but way too cramped. The music was decent but the crowd was straight out of a mixer for the Rutgers physics department. Not that I've ever been to one. Would def not go back.

What a beautiful space. Impressive decor and service. The great music on the weekends kept the party moving at lightspeed. The crowd was terrific and the prices for drinks and food were very reasonable. Had a Amazing time. I will most certainly be back.

This place was wonderful. I came here for a birthday party and wound up finding a wonderful place to dance the night away. It was a little overcrowded and hot, but we still had a great night. Great music and ambiance and not too long of a wait at the bar even with a ton of people there.

The chinese food was extremely good and I've been coming back over and over again. I definitely recommend it to anyone who wants good chinese food.
