The Experience
A seat at the table
Mahjong is a social game first. We built a room that treats it that way.
Patient, expert instruction
Brand new or brushing up, our instructors teach the tiles, the Charleston, and the card at a pace that builds real confidence. We honor the game's roots and keep the lessons fun.
Community at the heart
Come alone and leave with a table. Leagues, open play, and themed nights are built to turn strangers into regulars.

First Visit
Good to know
Anything else, ask us at the door or in the inquiry form.
Do I need to know how to play?
Not at all. Mahj 101 assumes you have never touched a tile. Open play is grouped by level, so you will sit with players near your experience.
Which style of mahjong do you play?
We teach and play American mahjong, using the current year's National Mah Jongg League card. Ask us about card availability when booking your session.
Can I come alone?
Please do. Request a single seat and we will place you at a table. Many of our regulars first came on their own.
What is your cancellation policy?
Please ask about the cancellation terms for your chosen session before booking. We confirm the details with your reservation.
Do you serve food and drinks?
Please include any food and drink questions or dietary requirements in your inquiry so we can help you plan your visit.
