Black Knight 黑武士

Originating in Taipei in 1981, the first Black Knight on the mainland was opened in Beijing in 2016. Situated next to Kro's Nest at the Winterless Center, this 300-square-meter venue can seat over 100 people, with tables of varying sizes and large private rooms on the second floor. 

The signature half spicy, half original broths (RMB 198) come served in a pretty cloisonné bronze pot. Meat ranges from RMB 58-680 a plate, shrimp or beef balls are RMB 18-38, and vegetables for RMB 12-28. If you're not in the mood for hot pot, they also offer hearty bowls Taiwanese noodles (RMB 18-58).
