Recommendations for dinner in China Town?

I am going to go to Chinatown tonight and wanted to know if anyone could recommend a place?

    What type of Chinese food are you looking for? Lao Sze Chuan is very good for Szechuan, as is Double Li. I slightly prefer the atmosphere at LSC though, and the complimentary spicy cabbage that starts off every meal is fantastic.

    If you want Cantonese, try the "Little" Three Happiness (the small location on the south side of Cermak). Great salt & pepper shrimp, pan fried noodles and bbq duck and pork.

    I too like Moon Palace. Ed's Potsticker House is not so far from Chinatown and I think the food there is excellent.

    Others really like Mandarin Kitchen, but I have never been. I also really like Shui Wah, although I typically go for dim sum.

      I favor Moon Palace, on the north side of Cermak, just west of the fire station.

        For Szechuan food, I like Lao Sze Chuan, at the west end of the Chinatown Mall. Not overly fancy, but excellent food. www.laoszechuan.com
