Bold, modern Sichuan/Hunan flavors in a stylish LIC room; excellent dishes but inconsistent service and pricey—go for food and vibe, not white-glove hospitality.
Red Sorghum delivers stylish ambiance and bold, addictive flavors in signature dishes like Chairman pork and peppercorn fish, but inconsistent quality between visits and uneven service attention—particularly near closing—prevent a higher grade. The attractive LIC setting and creative regional Chinese cooking appeal to diners seeking upscale neighborhood dining, though premium pricing and execution gaps keep it from competing with the area's most reliable establishments.
One caveat: Service can feel hands-off: minimal check-backs, self-boxing leftovers
