"Walking into Qi feels like entering a private vault. The front patio of Qi has all the expected cool factor of a restaurant built on the ground level of a West Sixth street high-rise, which is to say, not much. But once you open the tall (and heavy) wooden doors into the dining area, you’ll find yourself in a lively room with exposed beams, tall windows, and hanging paper umbrella lanterns. It’s a Chinese restaurant, and dumplings are the specialty, but you’ll also find Peking duck, Cantonese fried whole fish, and premium renditions of a few Chinese-American classics. Come to Qi when you want to celebrate with a group, or if you’d rather get your meal in during brunch hours—our favorite time to eat here. " - nicolai mccrary
