Chin Chin is a midtown mainstay that prides itself on impeccable service and delectable Chinese cuisine in an elegant setting. Owner Jimmy Chin has been named one of New York City's Top Gracious Hosts Four Times by the Zagat Survey. The crowd always looks happy at this longtime gourmet Midtown Chinese where familiar dishes manage to seem fresh and different, thanks to their beautiful preparation. Classic and civilized, this designer Midtown Chinese never fails, offering a top-flight menu highlighted by its one-of-a-kind Grand Marnier shrimp; if pricing is similarly top-shelf, most feel they get a lot in return. Chin Chin welcomes requests for banquets, private parties, and outside catering. There are two dining rooms available for private parties. The smaller room can accommodate 15 to 25 people and the large one can accommodate 35 to 55.

The place is beautiful with a chic atmosphere. The service is always excellent and the food is absolutely delicious. It might seem pricey, but the portions are quite large and the quality of the food is great. I definitely recommend giving Chin Chin a try! Posted 07/28/08 at 6:49am Nothing special Food is mediocre at best, and not sure what the hype is about the dining room. Far from elegant food or dining room. So many better places with authentic chinese without French and Italian music playing. Pros: Close to my apartment Cons: Atmosphere, food and did not get the Italian/French music playing Posted 05/12/08 at 3:52am Boo! I have eaten chinese food at different restaurant so many times and i can say that this place is not a place to eat fine chinese cuisine.go somewhere else. Posted 05/05/08 at 11:07am Good chinese food. Good service. Went there on a Saturday in Feb 08 and the service was very good. Everyone was extremely nice, and the food did not take long to arrive at our table. I had a good time, and was able to carry a conversation without them trying to rush you out of the restaurant. The taste and quality of the food were good as well. The food doesnt have excesses amounts of oil. If you want good chinese food where the quality and service of the food are great then go to Chin Chin. Pros: Good food, fast and friendly service. Cons: Price, although its not that bad for the quality. Posted 02/17/08 at 7:47pm Good food, semi-friendly staff, a bit pricey We made last minute reservations for a table of 9 during Restaurant Week. Staff was accomodating allowing us to be seated before the entire party arrived. The options on the pre fixe menu were broad, but I must say the food was up to par with what you would find at any standard Chinese restaurant, and probably for less $ (even w the pre fixe). We ordered 4 bottles of wine throughout the night. The staff was less than enthusiastic about serving us, and definitely took their time with attending to our table. At one point the waiter spilled a glass of water across the table, and proceeded to soak it up without the mention of an apology. Crossing this off of my list of places to return to. Pros: food was ok Cons: service, price Posted 02/08/08 at 5:53am
