Dark, polished, and spicy. Born in Williamsburg, Brooklyn, CHINALOA pairs the coastal brightness of Sinaloa with Asian precision. Citrus that snaps. Heat that lingers. Texture you feel.
Behind the stove, one of the co-owners whose Queens plates earned real buzz—featured by Eater NY and Give Me Astoria in roundups for birria tacos, ceviche, and the best of Astoria, plus a spotlight on Sinaloan flavors in NYC. That momentum lives here.
We cook from scratch and design for sharing: dumplings and bao finished with salsa macha, raw dishes that sing with citrus, and mains that land with drama. The room is moody, the details are tight, and late nights are encouraged. CHINALOA is modern Mexican - Asian fusion with Sinaloan soul, bold, balanced, and unmistakably Brooklyn.

“By far the best fusion food I’ve had in New York! The staff is super friendly and the place has an amazing vibe, perfect for hanging out with friends or family dinners! I 100% recommend it.”
“I got lucky to be part of their soft opening. The food is innovative and good taste. Price isn’t crazy if you know about grade 1 Tuna and a great mole dishes. Definitely, my new gem in Williamsburg.”
“Food is exquisite and the service is amazing. The place is also beautiful and comfortable. I will be coming back soon, definitely!”
