Spicy 9: The best Asian food in Chapel Hill

Spicy 9


DTH readers say the best Asian food in Chapel Hill is located right on Franklin Street, at Spicy 9.

With a fresh atmosphere, a fish tank, high ceilings and windows and an elaborate menu, Spicy 9 does not disappoint. Many students say this is a staple of their college experience. 

Spicy 9’s menu is elaborate and features cuisines from all over Asia, from bento boxes to Korean barbecue to ramen and beyond, but most folks come for the sushi. Rolls are buy-one-get-one-free all day. The lunch specials are also a hit.
