The Chinatown food hall is at risk of eviction, according to lawsuits first reported on by the San Francisco Business Times.

according to a reportThe threat of eviction looms over the large food hall at 644 Broadway in San Francisco's Chinatown neighborhood — though recent developments may have staved off a more immediate exit., in January, 644 Broadway LLC — managed by Cypress Properties Group — sued China Live, alleging the restaurant owes $4.2 million in back rent dating back to October 2021.

Just two months later, on March 17, the eviction suit was"voluntarily" dismissed by 644 Broadway LLC,. An attorney for 644 Broadway LLC told the Chronicle that “we are still trying to get the tenant to pay the rent," and there's been no settlement. The same attorney told the Business Times that 644 Broadway LLC reserves the right to serve China Live with another eviction notice in the future.

The eviction suit isn't the first legal dispute between the restaurant and the landlord. China Live is the plaintiff of an ongoing case against 644 Broadway LLC that dates back to 2021. In that lawsuit, China Live accused 644 Broadway LLC of a breach of contract, neglecting significant maintenance issues, and overcharging for rent based on the amount of building space that's actually usable.

China Live is seeking $25 million in damages in its breach of contract suit. A China Live spokesperson told the Business Times and the Chronicle that China Live does not intend to close its flagship location.
