Housed in one of the most stunning buildings in Beijing, this chic venue offers modern Anhui and Sichuan cuisine, creative cocktails and a view of the Gongti pond. The creatively presented (although somewhat pricey) food doesn't live up to the restaurant's gorgeous interior. Nonetheless, still a good place to impress visiting guests. This restaurant is also part of the Italian slow food movement supporting organic produce.
Don't be fooled into thinking this restaurant is all about seafood; the name belies a restaurant more than capable of offering up innovative delights for all dining enthusiasts. Decked out with classy crystal lighting, the culinary surprises and exemplary service here make for a memorable dining experience.
Recently re-opened Domus Restaurant & Lounge, located at 115 Nanchizi Road and therefore only yards away from Tiananmen Square and the Forbidden City, has prescribed itself to domesticity in every aspect of its design, food and beverage offering and service in order to create a multi-dimensional and importantly very personal and tailored experience. Zeitgeist, a bespoke international hospitality management firm, previously responsible for the operational development of Beijing’s acclaimed Legation Quarter at 23 Qianmen and the management company behind the award-winning new luxury hotel The PuLi Hotel and Spa, Shanghai, has taken over the management of Domus Restaurant & Lounge with an entirely new food, beverage and service concept. The intimate 60-seater restaurant of Domus features a brand new menu of traditional and artisan French cooking, without the pretense and complications of conventional “Fine Dining” cuisine. In collaboration with classically-trained chef Dan Segall, formerly at the helm of Zuma, Hong Kong and M1NT Shanghai, Zeitgeist has returned to the roots of home-cooked French cuisine and has revived many classic and all-time favourite dishes that include a traditional Bouillabaisse, home-made charcuteries, steak frites, whole roasted chicken or moules frites. The Lounge of Domus represents a haven for the celebration of drinks culture and a new form of intelligent and mature nightlife, focusing on the quality of drinks and service and on an environment in which guests are heard and not herded. The menu of Domus Lounge features classic cocktails, a comprehensive selection of fine single malt whiskies and delicious snacks and dishes from the restaurant menu, handcrafted and delivered to a backdrop of beautifully arranged and domestic design furniture originals and subtle contemporary and ambient music.

A perfect replica of a British curry house, this jumping joint gets the Guomao lunchtime crowd with its sizable and tasty Indian classics. With its gorgeous wooden carvings, excellent service and a very dedicated and friendly staff, this restaurant is a must for anyone who loves Indian cuisine. Lesser known is their creamy chicken lassuni curry, definitely worth the try.
The rich ambiance and decorator's eye for detail overshadows the food at this fancy restaurant. One of the few restaurants opened to satiate Beijing's increasingly affluent diners, the cuisine is certainly above average, with a particularly good beef carpaccio and lime teriyaki appetizer.
With creative design and a fantastic location in the old American Legation Quarters near Tiananmen, this fine dining restaurant brings the Daniel Boulud dining empire to Beijing, as well as the celebrity chef's deft culinary innovations.
