Experts' Choice Award Haozhan
What the experts agree on
Soho's Haozhan elevates Chinese classics with inventive Southeast Asian twists—think Tom Yum prawns in pancake cones—while keeping prices refreshingly reasonable for the quality and innovation on offer.
“Haozhan’s cool interior continues to entice Chinatown visitors away from standardized sweet-and-sour pork toward more innovative flavors.”
