The Red Pavilion, Brooklyn

Chinese Teahouse & Apothecary by Day, Asian Neo-Noir Nightclub After Dark.

The playful aesthetic of our Asian pulp noir interior highlights our experiential food, beverage, and entertainment program, which incorporates nightlife, performance art, and Traditional Chinese Medicine (TCM). 

Operating as a glamorous teahouse by day and smoky neon nightclub at night, Red Pavilion invokes the the seductive style of Wong Kar Wai with a hint of Lynchian noir.

In response to the surge of violence against the AAPI community, Red Pavilion was established by creative director Shien Lee and Chinese Medicine chef Zoey Gong as a platform to amplify the representation of Asian voices and cultural identity. 

Our focus is to support the cultural visibility of the AAPI community in New York and provide unique immersive food and beverage experiences that incorporate live music, performance art, and Traditional Chinese Medicine (TCM).

By sharing the healing magic from our ancestors through TCM and combining it with purpose-driven experiences of art, hospitality and cultural exchange, we aim to shatter stereotypes and structural inequalities, allowing individuals and communities to heal and flourish.
