Cool Bar BBQ Fish is a very unique Chinese Restaurant in the Las Vegas Chinatown. They have a car in the dining room blocking a live fish tank.

To the left is an attractive bar without seating. The bar holds a collection of toy cars. They don’t serve mixed drinks here. They offer beer and wine and soft beverages. During the day 7am-3pm they offer a different menu that doesn’t have BBQ Fish. So it’s a cool bar with toy cars instead of bar drinks and the BBQ fish is only offered for dinner.

Anyways-

I tried a herbal Chinese Tea.

it’s kinda sweet and I’m not sure how it’s flavored…….

We shared what they call Chicken Soup Wontons.

The soup is very good and so are the chicken wontons. The soup has a nice gentle spicy finish too.

I really came here to try the Big Plate Chicken because it is one of the most amazing Chinese Dishes that I have ever tried anywhere and I saw it on the menu here. To me it’s like what a Chinese Thanksgiving could be like……….It’s a big chicken stew laced with star anise, bay leaves, ginger, garlic, cumin, Szechwan Peppercorns. It has flat chewy noodles, potatoes, bell peppers. One restaurant I went to put chestnuts in it. It’s always a very special dish. I was surprised when I got here because I didn’t know about the 7am-3pm menu and Big Plate Chicken was not on that menu. We did ask for the Big Plate Chicken and they were nice enough to make it for us.

This is not a stew here……

This has a sort of Chinese Take Out Type Taste to it.

It can pass as Orange Chicken.

It’s not bad but it doesn’t taste like Big Plate Chicken.

We shared Pumpkin Cake for dessert.

They were made fresh to order and came out straight out of the fryer. They are sweet with a tapioca type of chew.

That was my trip to Cool Bar BBQ Fish.
