Chinois On Main
- Asian Fusion
- Santa Monica, CA
About this business
Another of Wolfgang Puck's sensational creations, this Asian/French restaurant has been a hit from the time the doors first opened. Every table is filled for dinner and no one goes away unhappy. The decor is as loud as the noise level but the food's so good you won't mind. Try the Catfish, the Mongolian Lamb Chops and the Rare Duck with Plum Sauce-they're truly incredible. Reservations are a must, unless you're Julia Roberts.

Fabulous food, confusing atmosphere For as high a quality food as you get in this Wolfgang Puck restaurant, I was really confused why there were neon lights and why the inside of the restaurant wasn't more sophisticated. I had been to the Chinois in Las Vegas first, and that one I give five stars to for the entire package.
Great Asian-French Fusion! We had a Christmas dinner function here and were fortunate enough to dine in their other room (separate location). So we basically had the room all to ourselves. It's nice and cozy in there. Great wine selection. The kitchen opens up to the dining area, so you can have a wiff of what's to come. Great food. Great service!
Chinois Chinois on Main, one of Wolfgang Puck's restaurants is the home of the Chinese Chicken Salad. They have good service and delicious food that combines Chinese and French influences.
THIS PLACE IS LIVING ON IT'S LAURELS; SUCH A DISAPPOINTMENT. – I've been going to this place for special occasions over the past couple of decades and have always been totally pleased with the food and service. I'd not been for several years and went for a birthday celebration. We were so very disappointed. The signature lobster dish was just ok and had only four very small pieces of lobster that were not particularly tasty. For the price, it was just crazy. We also had a scallop dish for the second entre. It was good but no... read more
Touristy – Wow, this place has seriously gone downhill. I would write a review of the Library Alehouse just down the street in a more favorable manner than this now old, and defunct joint. If you're over 60 years old maybe you'd still like coming here. In fact, maybe that's the specific old money crowd they're after at this place. Can you say too much salt? Ew. That's all I can say about even the most tried and true dishes that we've had many times in the past. Ew.
Go with 4 or more – We really liked this place, mostly because the food was very tasty and there was a lot of it. In fact, we should have brought more people, because we couldn't finish it all. Let's call the place sophisticated casual, sophisticated food, casual room. Solid service and value. Worth checking out.
AWFUL the biggest let down – This restaurant came very highly recommended and my girlfriend and I were very very excited to try it on date night. Unfortunately from the beginning this was an awful experience that made us wish for a hinano burger. We go out often and try new restaurants all the time. The evening began with coming in to the most awful layout of a restaurant I have ever seen. We were seated in the middle facing the bar/waiters station in the most awful decor. There were two large flamingos on both sides of us f... read more

Great food, great service! – Very nice, relaxed atmosphere. Food was a little pricey, but well worth it. Our server, Lisa, was exceptional nd on top of everything, from the menu to our wine need. She made our experience worth going back for!
