Suzi's Chinese

ChineseAustin$$$$

Suzi's Chinese is one of the best chinese restaurants in Austin for date night, especially if you want a strong option in Austin.

Suzi's Chinese earns its name twice over: once from the address, and once from Suzi Yi herself, the Korean-born Austin restaurateur who opened her first Chinese Kitchen on South Lamar back in 1990, built a following loyal enough to mourn her 2018 retirement, and then — because Austin apparently wouldn't let her go — came back in January 2024 with a new room on Burnet Road and a menu that picks up more or less where she left off.
