From the OpenTable editors: Chinese American flavors meet Tennessee ingredients at this sleek restaurant named one of the 25 best in the city by The New York Times. Inspired by consulting chef Brandon Jew’s SF hotspot Mister Jiu's, Choy dishes up cross-cultural hits like roast duck with peanut butter hoisin and gulf snapper with fermented black beans. Beverage titans Justin Mueller & Abe Vucekovich have created an enviable drinks program spotlighting rare selections that pair perfectly with the food and moody interiors featuring grand emerald leather booths and artwork by acclaimed Nashville artist Ed Nash.

From start to finish the service was amazing. We had the shrimp fried rice, bok choy, and Peking duck. I would order all of them over again. The cocktail program is great and the sommelier has great wine recommendations. Looking forward to going back and trying other dishes.

Best duck I’ve ever had, and I’ve had The Morris’ duck in San Francisco several times (was my favorite until last night!). our soup and chicken wings were a bit over salted but this incredible duck more than made up for those! seriously get the freaking duck!!!!
