Mark Wilkins: Arrive before 7 or after 9 if you do not want a long wait! The hamburger, barbecue ribs, and French Dip are my favorites, but everything they serve is good!
Nhat Tran: BBQ ribs are incredible
Christopher T: Always excellent food and service. No corkage fee for wines is an A+++ but they have a great wine selection with minimal markups!

Marisa Rivas: Best bbq ribs! Order the sauce on the side because the ribs are delicious w/ no sauce. Don't go the day after a holiday weekend, they are always out of the good stuff, like ribs!
Zay: Terrible service and I won't be back! I'll leave it at that... The location on Florence is so much better.
Yvonne Ellett: This location is slow and inefficient. You'll be happier driving about 3 miles south east to the florence/gramercy location.

Rick Bendix: The food is outstanding. The chicken salad, the barbecued ribs and the salmon were all delicious. However, the restaurant was too noisy on a Saturday night.
BlackboardEats: Menu musts: Chinois chicken salad, Grilled salmon, Whole sizzling catfish, Stir fried duck and vegetables http://bit.ly/osS1iM
Wolfgang Puck: Opened in 1983, Chinois on Main's 30th anniversary is this year! Thank you for a wonderful 30 years.
Daniel Britton: BBQ rib and pastor are amazing!
Connie Chiu: Al pastor burrito is solid (though rice and beans are considered add ones). The guacamole is tasty! Big portions (unlike other spots) and love the thick spiced chips.
Marc Vermut: Great tacos, fresh ingredients, friendly service. A bit pricey but ingredients reflect value.
