| A landmark of the Chinatown Mall, The Chinahouse Restaurant has established a reputation for top quality seafood and Chinese cuisine. The restaurant is spacious and elegantly appointed, and would prove perfect for a large group or function. The staff is attentive and courteous, and can always offer helpful advise about the overwhelming selection of dishes available. The yum cha (dim sum) style of dining is always a lot of fun, allowing you to experiment with food in a way that other restaurants cannot offer.
