Chicago Mag named Sunda New Asian the Best New Restaurant.
From the article
Nobody saw this coming. Billy Dec‘s nightlife team (Rockit, The Underground) is behind this modern Asian lair, so we knew it would be a scene, and the cosmetically fickle women blithely sipping Wasabi H2O martinis in the slick lounge confirmed that. We just didn’t expect the food to be good. At communal tables, a huge sushi bar, and everywhere else in Tony Chi’s stunning space, chef Rodelio Aglibot’s creative Eastern gems are on display. Our favorite- and the year’s best new dish- is the “Devil’s Basket,” a metal bucket filled to the brim with fiery red chilis, toasted garlic, and transcendent soft-shell crabs. And the servers are every bit as polished as the food. Sunda is the nicest surprise of the year.
