"Longtime Chinatown restaurant Moon Palace Express transformed its dining room into Chinatown’s first cocktail bar in 2022. The dim, moody space offers great pub food (the McKatsu is a standout) and drinks that appeal to Chinese Americans and their parents. This is one of the best bars in Chicago and an essential neighborhood spot for a post-meal tipple. It’s easy to miss, as guests enter through Moon Palace Express." - Jeffy Mai
