Master Critic Review

Mr. Mahjong’s 7.7
Financial District
Asian-inspired night spot with a bar-food lineup that includes crisp fries for late sessions. DJs on weekends and counter-pace service make it a convenient FiDi snack-and-sip option.
Must-Try Dishes: French fries, Crispy calamari with fries, Wings
Scores:
Value: 7.9 Service: 7.8 Consistency: 7.5 Food Quality: 7.6 Atmosphere: 8.4 Cultural Relevance: 8.1
What makes it special: Late-night fries in a lively, DJ-driven lounge setting.
Who should go: Night owls near FiDi
When to visit: Thu–Sat after 9pm for energy and music
What to order: French fries; calamari with fries; wings
Insider tip: Order at the bar before DJs start to beat the rush.
Logistics & Planning
Parking: Street parking is tough after 6pm; closest paid garage is One Pine Street ($8–12 for evening hours).
Dress code: Trendy casual—jeans are fine, but most patrons lean dressy after 9pm.
Noise level: High after DJs start; conversation-friendly only before 9:30pm.
Weekend wait: 30–45 minutes for tables after 9pm; bar counter is faster.
Weekday lunch: Closed during lunch—opens late afternoon.
Dietary Options
Vegetarian options: Yes—fries, veggie dumplings, and sides work for vegetarians.
Vegan options: Limited—fries and a few bar snacks without sauces can be vegan.
Gluten-free options: Check website for updated information
Good to Know
Is this good for a first date? Not ideal unless you’re looking for a high-energy, clubby vibe—conversation is difficult after DJs start.
Can I get a table without a reservation? Yes, it’s mostly walk-in, but weekends after 9pm often mean waiting at the bar first.
Is it kid-friendly? No—this is an adult nightlife spot with DJs and late-night service; not suitable for children.
Best For
Better for: Late-night fries and bar bites in a clubby, energetic setting—something few FiDi spots offer.
Skip if: You want a quiet dinner, dedicated gluten-free menu, or a true sit-down restaurant experience.
