The Top 99 Places to Eat Near Summer Palace Hotel
-
Rank 1. Trb Hutong
Contemporary French
-
Rank 2. Fu Chun Ju
Cantonese
-
A restored courtyard mansion in a Beijing hutong, with high ceilings and a view that shifts through the seasons. This is a Michelin-starred dining room built around traditional Beijing cooking given a careful modern rethink. The Peking duck, fired over jujube wood and served three ways, is the anchor, but the kitchen ranges further than that. Beijing-themed cocktails round out a meal that takes the city's culinary past seriously without turning it into a museum.

Rank 16. Lamdre
Vegan
A pitched-roof skylight fills the minimalist dining room with natural light, and the handpicked ceramics suggest you're somewhere that has thought carefully about everything. Lamdre is a fine-dining vegan restaurant in Sanlitun holding two Michelin stars and a spot on Asia's 50 Best list, where a seasonally changing menu draws on China's regional traditions and the chef's research trips into the country's lesser-known ingredients. The name comes from Tibetan Buddhism, which tells you the vibe isn't purely culinary.

Rank 20. The House of Dynasties
Cantonese
Seven private dining rooms, each named after a Chinese dynasty, ring the main hall at this Cantonese restaurant on the fourth floor of Rosewood Beijing. The kitchen holds a Michelin star and runs on a philosophy of restraint, letting the ingredient lead rather than the technique. The pastry course, a molten jackfruit number the chef has been refining for years, tends to stay with people.

-
The Salvo brothers set up a Neapolitan pizzeria in Beijing and, somewhere along the way, made it a serious reference point for the form across Asia. The dough is soft and properly blistered, the crust light enough to suggest restraint but satisfying enough to suggest experience. Classic pies lean into tradition without apology; a few contemporary options show the kitchen hasn't stopped thinking. Pasta is on too, and the room is spacious and wine-lined, the service polished without stiffness.

Rank 94. Chef 1996
Modern Si Chuanese
Pork sliced thin enough to hold up to the light is the calling card here, a modern Sichuan restaurant in Chaoyang where the chef, a native of Emei, treats the cuisine's famously layered heat as a palette rather than a blunt instrument. The room draws a crowd that takes its Sichuan seriously, and the kitchen obliges with food that is fiery and precise in equal measure. It holds a spot in the Michelin Guide.
