MICHELIN Guide’s Point Of View

This contemporary Chinese restaurant is elegant and art-filled with unapologetically fiery Hunan-style cooking. The kitchen team plates authentic and bold dishes with a few American-style standbys to appease the kung pao chicken crowd. Winter melon soup is a savory delight with bits of tender pork rib. Sliced eel in chili oil is a sensation with its contrast of flavors and textures, while the pork and crab soup dumplings are a wonderful treat. The subtle but not shy Hunan-style fried rice goes way beyond standard issue. Presentations are as artful as the painting-lined walls. Chinese restaurants may not be known for dessert, but Atlas bucks that trend with its handful of offerings—especially those nutty and delicious fried rice balls with longan.
