Bottom Line
Verdict
We had a great experience at Tiger Fork DC. While the restaurant is tucked away in an alley, which made it a little tricky to find, the delicious food and drinks were well worth the effort. We started with the Salt & Pepper Calamari, which was perfectly crispy and seasoned. For our main course, we shared the Beef Brisket Chow Fun, and it was fantastic – flavorful with plenty of tender brisket.
We also enjoyed the creative cocktails. The Victoria Harbour was silky smooth and semisweet, while the Nathan Road was a bit stronger but still very enjoyable. The Chinese Kitchen, with its flaming cinnamon stick, was a fun and flavorful experience. The Monkey King Bread was a tasty dessert, though we would have preferred it a bit softer.
The service was friendly and attentive, and the ambiance was pleasant. While the location is a bit unusual, we appreciated the unique atmosphere. We'll definitely be back, especially for happy hour at the bar.
