Broadway Cuisine

Housed in the massive banquet hall that was once the Plum Tree Inn, this beloved Chinatown dining palace was recently taken over by husband-and-wife duo Yi Long and Wen Yu, as well as two silent business partners—all of them with decades-long ties to the area. Here, diners can find everything from casual weekday lunch specials to delectable special occasion delights like whole pan-fried fish and Peking duck among Broadway Cuisine's dizzying selection of 200-plus different dishes. Maximalism might no longer be en vogue among Chinese restaurants situated further east, but this old-style newcomer in Chinatown offers a way to return to the lavish Chinese banquet dinners that have delighted Angelenos for decades—lazy Susans and all.
