Han Dynasty Upper West Side

Nestled in the vibrant yet laid-back neighborhood of Manhattan’s Upper West Side—an area known for its elegant pre-war architecture, renowned cultural institutions, and close proximity to iconic green spaces like Central Park and Riverside Park—Han Dynasty Upper West Side is a hidden gem with historic charm. Housed in a beautifully restored space that was once part of the Hotel Bretton Hall (touted as the “largest hotel uptown” when built and now known simply as Bretton Hall), the restaurant blends timeless elegance with modern comfort. Conveniently located on West 85th Street between Broadway and Amsterdam Avenue, Han Dynasty is just steps from public transit: the 1 train is one block away, the C/E trains three blocks away, and several bus lines (M104, M7, M11, M86-SBS) all within a short walk. Guests are welcomed by a shaded outdoor patio perfect for al fresco dining, which leads into a stylish interior featuring a naturally lit full bar. Beyond the bar, the space opens into a grand main dining room with soaring ceilings and seating for 150 guests—ideal for large gatherings such as rehearsal dinners, weddings, fundraisers, and other celebrations—to enjoy delectable Sichuan Chinese cuisine!
