The Chic Bistro

The Chic Bistro (also known as Radix) is an intimate Caribbean bistro and lounge on East 233rd Street in the Bronx, serving West Indian cuisine with an upscale island-inspired decor. The menu features flavorful dishes like honey garlic salmon, jerk salmon with rice and peas, escovitch red snapper, and cod fish cakes, alongside cocktails like the coconut margarita and Long Island iced tea. The ambiance is calm and easy-going, with soft lighting and reggae music that sets a relaxed mood without overpowering conversation. While guests often praise the vibe and hospitality, some note occasional inconsistency in portion sizes.
