"Chef Guo is now open, a tasting-menu restaurant that offers 15 savory courses, three tea courses, and dessert from chef Guo Wenjun. The cooking is a combination of Chinese imperial and western styles, with dishes like fried foie gras au jus or mustard greens, black rice, and lobster tails. Wenjun is a Chinese master chef of imperial cuisine — as such, the menu is priced accordingly at just over $500 per person." - Eater Staff

The incredible dining experience. After numerous meals at Michelin-starred restaurants, I must say that ChefGuo is one of the best overall high-end restaurants I have experienced... from flawless service, meticulously prepared dishes, to the breathtaking and unique environment that immerses you in an outstanding gastronomic journey. I highly recommend 3 Michelin stars!

the food was good, but compared to other high price point places such as jua or le bernadin it falls flat of that “wow” factor. the best dishes we had were a kungpao lobster tail and a truffle pea soup, though i understand the menu will likely be different for everyone. the portions started small and got bigger, with the qian kun hotpot style soup being the largest course. sometimes the flavor combos did not make sense. the restaurant interior was beautiful, and so was the dish and silverware. the servers were friendly and attentive, given you have the dining area to yourself.

It was my first time to visit Chefguo, and the experience here was beyond imagination! The environment of the restaurant is elegant and grand, the service staff is professional and considerate, and every detail reflects high-end quality. The dishes are impeccable, combining traditional Chinese food with exquisite plating, and you can feel the care and sincerity in every bite. Especially the Taiji black Truffle, the taste is wonderful and memorable. Whether it is the dining atmosphere or the food itself, I feel that it is worth the money! I highly recommend it to friends who want to enjoy high-quality Chinese food! I will definitely come again!

My usual work is busy and stressful, and it is difficult to find time to spend a good time with my family. Today, we chose Chefguo, and it turned out to be an excellent decision. From the moment you step into the restaurant, the elegant environment makes people feel relaxed. The service staff are enthusiastic and professional, handling every detail appropriately, which makes people feel respectful and cared for. In terms of dishes, each dish reflects exquisite cooking and high quality of ingredients, and the taste is very authentic and exquisite.

My review for this restaurant is awesome!!!!🤩 As soon as I entered the restaurant I was shocked by the decorative style inside, which simply arrived at the feeling of a palace dinner. I have rarely seen some restaurants so richly decorated with Chinese cultural characteristics. For the food, I don't even dare to break its shape🤣🤣because the food is as exquisite as if is fake, and at first glance thought it was a painting. Overall, the environment and the food are top-notch, at least one of the tops in my case. Compared with Michelin's three-star restaurant, I prefer Chef Guo, more to my taste. I really really really really super recommend trying it! 🥹😋

WOW. I had an amazing, exquisite, imperial dinner experience at Chef Guo’s midtown namesake restaurant. The restaurant environment, reinforced that imperial feel. I definitely felt like royalty, entering through the restaurant’s private gate, being greeted by a white gloved server. A server who was dressed in gold trimmed, traditional, imperial Chinese outfit. The dinner that followed was nothing short of incredible. Exquisite, a “Once in a lifetime” sort of an experience. BTW everything on the plate is eatable, including the butterflies and the $100 bill 💵. 😳
