We may be doing a disservice to the knowledgeable patrons of Red Pine Restaurant & Bar by disclosing the whereabouts of this outstanding Chinese dining establishment.
Nestled within the lobby of an office complex in Boca Raton and lacking any external signage, this spacious venue (symbolizing longevity, health, and wisdom in Chinese tradition) occupies a concealed location. However, the moment you walk through the doors, it’s clear that its exclusivity has been uncovered.
The stunning interior features soaring ceilings, expansive floor-to-ceiling glass walls, various dining sections adorned with plush red banquettes, and a vibrant bar scene drawn in by a post-work clientele enjoying discounted craft cocktails, by-the-glass wines, and affordable bar snacks.
The culinary offerings at Red Pine are designed for communal dining, with each dish presented family-style.
In addition to classic favorites such as General Tso’s chicken and Dan Dan noodles, the chef’s creativity is evident in unique dishes like Black Bean Pepper Beef and a spicier variation of Kung Pao Chicken.
Red Pine’s menu presents an extensive array of dishes influenced by recipes sourced from Chinese restaurants around the globe. The inclusion of fresh, seasonal ingredients enhances the character of every meal.
Notably, their half-roasted Peking duck is offered in two styles – the traditional presentation and as Peking duck lettuce cups. This dish, ideal for a group of two to three diners, requires a preparation time of about 30 minutes.
The menu is user-friendly, organized into sections like Dim Sum, Dumplings, Soups, Noodles, Fried Rice, and Big Wok.
Begin your dining experience with Dim Sum selections such as steamed bao buns or sticky spareribs glazed with hoisin soy. Be sure to try the pork long dumplings, which are crafted in the traditional manner.
Other enticing options include Hong Kong-style noodles, “angry pig” fried rice, Maine lobster fried rice, chili garlic shrimp, and spice-braised short ribs.
And be sure to leave space for dessert, such as the milk tea sponge cake paired with brown sugar milk tea ice cream, at Red Pine Restaurant & Bar located at One Town Center Road in Boca Raton.
