The 36 Best Restaurants In Chinatown - Chicago - The Infatuation

"This sit-down Chinese restaurant is a bona fide group spot. Every table in the neatly designed matte black space seats at least six (most of them seat 10) and has a lazy susan to streamline sharing. Even a “small” crawfish order turns out to be a tasty mountain of crustaceans. Spicy whole fish or crab are fantastic (as the sign in front suggests, Hunan Bistro does have “good fish”), but don’t skip out on the braised pork belly or garlicky Hunan-style eggplant. Plus, if you have a Monday birthday, they’re open seven days a week." - adrian kane, john ringor

Where To Have A Graduation Dinner In Chicago - Chicago - The Infatuation

"This sit-down Chinese restaurant in Chinatown is made for affordable group dining. Each table has enough room for at least six people (most of them seat 10) and lazy susans help streamline sharing the large servings—because even a “small” $45 crawfish order is actually a massive pile of tasty crustaceans that feeds at least three. Spicy whole fish or crab are also fantastic (verifying that Hunan Bistro does have “good fish” as the sign in front suggests), but don’t miss out on buttery braised pork belly or garlicky Hunan-style eggplant, too. Plus, they’re open seven days a week—which comes in handy if you need a place to host a Monday graduation dinner." - veda kilaru, john ringor, adrian kane, nick allen

The 23 Best Restaurants For An Affordable Group Dinner In Chicago - Chicago - The Infatuation

"With tables that can easily seat ten people, lazy susans, and large servings (a $45 "small" order of crawfish can feed at least three people), Hunan Bistro is an all-star when it comes to affordable group dining. Spicy whole fish or crab are great (as the sign in front says, Hunan Bistro does indeed have “good fish”), along with dishes like buttery braised pork belly or garlicky Hunan-style eggplant. Plus, they’re open seven days a week—which comes in handy if you need a place to host a Monday birthday." - adrian kane, john ringor

Hunan Cuisine - Review - Chinatown - Chicago - The Infatuation

"From the team behind Lao Sze Chuan (and its many offspring) comes Hunan Cuisine. This large spot on the first floor of Chinatown Square focuses on spicy Hunan food. So while you won’t get the mouth-tinglingness of Sichuan food, you will still experience incredible levels of heat here. Order dishes like the steamed whole fish covered in peppers, fish head stew with silky pieces of tofu, and the sweet and spicy Hunan-style duck. The restaurant is great for groups, there are tables with lazy susans, and projections of dancing teddy bears on the wall to stare at in case the conversation hits a lull." - Adrian Kane

Hunan Bistro (Chicago) serves authentic Hunan food. The food tasted good, but my son and husband said the pork didn’t have a lot of meat on the bones. The fried lotus I ordered was alright. We noticed others ordering a dry hot pot, which looked good and maybe we should have tried that. The service wasn’t bad, but our server was maybe a bit distracted. Over all our experience was descent and I can’t complain. After a long day of traveling we were happy to get some hot food that tasted pretty good.

It was a Friday evening and the parking situation was a challenge but we found a spot nearby. At 6:30 pm the place was not that busy. We ordered from our phone by scanning the QR code. The servers only stopped by when there was some activity. Many dishes looked very attractive but we only tried a few. With taxes and tips, the bill was more than $97 for two, ouch! We plan to come back and try more.

We had a family gathering here and it was just perfect! Great atmosphere, large tables with a lazy Susan in the center for sharing. The food is cooked perfectly, the beef and chicken dinners were tender and delicious. Spicy is not over powering but just enough kick to make it tasty!

Great food. Nice atmosphere but don’t like ordering online and no communication until the food finally came. Everything we ate was tasty and large portion sizes. We had Wontons, House Special Spicy Pork, Stir-Fried vegetables, and rice. Delish!

Absolutely outstanding Hunan cuisine! The flavors were delightful and perfectly balanced with just the right amount of spice. The service was exceptionally friendly as well. Among the dishes, the beef rice noodles stood out for their tender texture and delicious beef broth, while the mashed pepper/eggplant with preserved eggs absorbed so much flavor. The ground pork with mustard and the smoked pork and bamboo shoot dry pot were also standout dishes. Overall, every dish were super aromatic, and with so many more menu items to explore, I'm looking forward to returning for more.

Definitely authentic Hunan Cuisine. We ordered the fish( definitely order the whole fish as it is fresh), sticky tofu( it is crispy and flavorful), dried beef pot. Everything is so good that we are definitely going to back to try more!

Service is kind of slow. It seems like they are short staffed. The stir fry and steamed fish are very good! Also strongly recommend the steamed eggplants. I do not recommend their chicken soup. But their vegetables dish, pork belly, beer duck and fish are very good.

Hunan Bistro: A Spicy Delight in Chicago's Chinatown During a recent Monday lunch, my friends and I decided to indulge in a Hunan cuisine feast at Hunan Bistro, located in the heart of Chicago's vibrant Chinatown. Known for its bold, spicy flavors, this restaurant did not disappoint, providing a perfect setting for a spicy food catch-up. Food Highlights: -Stewed Pork Feet with Soybeans: The pork feet were remarkably tender, falling off the bone, and bursting with flavor that harmonized beautifully with the soybeans. -Beer Duck: A regional dish from the Dongting Lake area in Hunan, the duck was succulent, with the broth having a unique, savory taste from the beer infusion. -Hand-Torn Cabbage: A staple vegetable dish from Hunan that was simple yet perfectly executed. -Mashed Pepper with Preserved Egg & Eggplant: This dish was an interesting mix of textures and flavors, combining the softness of eggplant with the sharpness of preserved egg. -House Special Spicy Pork: As the name suggests, it was fiery and packed with spices, offering an authentic taste of Hunan. -Egg Fried Pepper: Another spicy & protein treat that complemented the other dishes well. Overall Impression: Hunan Bistro offers an authentic taste of Hunan cuisine with its salty and spicy dishes that are perfect when paired with a bowl of steaming rice. The flavors are robust and well-balanced, making each dish stand out. The atmosphere is welcoming, and the food is consistently prepared to showcase the richness of Hunan cooking.
