Cha & — A Modern Sanctuary for Tea in the City ★★★★☆ Tucked into a sun-washed corner of the neighborhood, Cha & feels less like a café and more like a pause button. The airy space — White wall, light wood, and towering windows — fills with soft daylight, creating a calm, gallery-like atmosphere that contrasts beautifully with the city just beyond the glass. The tea list is thoughtful and globally inspired. Jewel-toned herbal infusions arrive in clear glass mugs, their color and aroma taking ce

Really enjoyed the hot braised dishes here — perfect for cold weather. The braised pork knuckle rice was flavorful and super comforting. Also loved the spicy beef tripe dish — the sauce is so good you can even mix it with noodles. Great value and a solid lunch spot in the neighborhood.

I recently visited Au Cheval in Manhattan and had a great overall experience. I really loved the atmosphere. The environment has a cool, vibrant energy, and the music added a lot to the mood of the place. The food was very good. We ordered the Caesar salad, mac and cheese, the burger, french fries and the chicken sliders. Everything was well-prepared and flavorful. The burger, of course, is the highlight. Is it the best burger I’ve ever had? No. But it’s definitely high quality, generously siz

Walking in, I already had a feeling this was going to be one of those places where you forget about checking your phone because the food keeps showing up and grabbing your attention. The dining room had a busy energy but never felt overwhelming. Once everything landed on the table, we ended up reaching for the soup dumplings first, then somehow kept rotating between the scallion pancakes, crispy shredded beef, and shrimp fried rice without really deciding what to eat next. The soup dumplings ab

We came here at 3pm on a Wednesday afternoon and luckily there was no line. Excellent pizza. I loved their hot boi (most creative pizza i’ve seen in a while) but their regular slice was about on par with other pizza places in the city. Would definitely come back!

This is pretty authentic chinese food. Great experience. Some of the waiters are a little rough on the English but be sure you explain what you want and use Google translate if you must. Everything is made to order so be prepared to wait if it's busy. It's a small place with only 10 tables but it didn't seem to be very loud. I ate the Buddha's Delight for my main dish and it was without hesitation, the best I've ever had anywhere. The vegetables were 100% on point and bursting with flavor.

CASH ONLY. This spot is all about no‑frills standard Cantonese roast meats. The menu is simple — roast pork, roast duck, or chicken over white rice with steamed napa cabbage — and both the small and large come packed to the brim. I got the roast pork and roast duck combo. The duck was the standout: tender, flavorful, and easily what I’d order on its own next time. The pork was average- prefer my roast pork on the fattier side, so it wasn’t as juicy or flavorful as other places nearby. I also sk

We want to try Chinese food and choose this one it had good reviews. It was lunch time and a bit busy. Server was attentive and recommend us, general So chicken, and Shanghai pork noodles. Got the pork soup dumplings wow the flavor of the soup was so good. Very thing was so good this is not our typical order we all wanted to try new things. This place is worth trying. We came back again today. Tried 3 different dumplings. And other dishes everything was delicious.

We got our food to go, but would have sat inside if we didn’t need to be someplace shortly after our stop in. We got the wheat noodles with peanut butter sauce and the pork and chive dumplings and with tip it was $10 for two people for lunch! What a bargain. The noodles were delightful and we added the leftover dumpling sauce, had we ate there I would have added Sriracha to it and it would have been perfect. The dumplings were crisp and steaming hot and delicious, though they did short us one so

The service here is absolutely immaculate. From the lightning-fast pace to the proactive water refills, the staff truly goes above and beyond. We opted for both the hot pot and BBQ; everything arrived at the table quickly, and the team even stepped in to grill for us while we focused on the hot pot. With incredible flavors and a vibrant atmosphere, this spot is top-notch. Highly recommended!

Great NY Noodletown has been on this corner of Bowery and Bayard since 1981, and the fact that it still draws a full room on any given afternoon says everything about what the kitchen is doing right. The space is no-frills in the extreme, bright lights, tables close together, service that moves at its own pace and doesn't particularly care if you feel rushed, but once the food arrives all of that context falls away pretty quickly. The wonton noodle soup is the first thing to order, a clear, slig

It was definitely worth it! I visited on my last day in New York and ordered the original egg tart and lemon cloud tart. Both were so so good! The crust was perfectly crispy and the filling was creamy without being overly sweet, which is exactly my style. I just wish I could've brought more home with me.

Came to Uncle Lou in celebration of Lunar New Year and food here is always perfect and spot on every time I dine here! This is one of the most popular spot in all of Chinatown, with a line that is constantly out the door (believe me, it’s definitely worth the wait!!). Their Cantonese style food is always a classic, and the dim sum here is definitely my favorite! Highly recommend trying their rice noodles and dumplings! The decor and atmosphere here is also very warm and welcoming, definitely gr

Outstanding service can make a busy restaurant unforgettable and Brian did exactly that. Even though the place was packed, our wait was only about 10 minutes. Brian, who mentioned he’s a chef (and may even be the owner), took care of us and was incredibly attentive from start to finish. He went above and beyond by making us a custom crispy rice dish that wasn’t even on the menu topped with spicy tuna, avocado, cucumber, and spicy mayo. It was absolutely amazing and truly top-tier. Despite how

Finally made it to Kiki’s and I’m happy to say it was worth all the hype. They don’t take reservations for small groups though so there’s often a wait, but we went at an odd time on Valentine’s Day and were able to be seated quickly. Service was great and the restaurant had a really cozy feel that definitely matched the vibe of enjoying coastal Greek food. The calamari was some of the best I’ve ever had, super fresh with a perfect crumb and the right amount of crisp. The other appetizer we got

The star of the show is definitely the hand-pulled noodles! They have the perfect, chewy texture and hold up beautifully in the bowl. The broth is incredibly rich, deeply flavorful, and clearly simmered to perfection. ​Pro Tip: This place gets packed very fast, so prepare to wait a bit during peak hours or try to arrive early. It is well worth the wait! ​I'm already planning my next visit because I definitely want to try their burgers next time. Highly recommend!

Delicious Chinese food!! The $10 lunch menu with mushroom was so good it tasted like chewy crispy meat 🤯 Service was amazing too. Tea was delish. I got this taro crispy bowl and the bowl was good even tho I don’t even like taro. I think my standards for Chinese food are rly high and the mushroom dish def met those standards

The Whiskey Tavern in NYC is one of the most welcoming and friendly bars I’ve ever been to, anywhere. I stopped in solo one afternoon and immediately felt at home thanks to the incredible staff and great atmosphere. Shout out to Alexandra, Colin, and Alex! I enjoyed it so much that I came back later that night with friends, and it was even more fantastic. If you’re looking for a place with great energy, genuinely friendly people, and a fun vibe, this is it. I’d highly recommend the Whiskey Tave

All of the cocktails have some sort of spice, earthy notes like garam masala, nutmeg, smoky, duck fat, smoked rosemary; etc. Again, this is a 4-star for myself but I can see this being 5-star for people with the acquired taste above. I think they are unique complex cocktails. I ordered “Napoleons Right Hand” which felt heavy handed on the bitters; my mouth puckered up quite a bit. My second was Melon King Fizz, which I informed the staff I didn’t like gin but she still said to try it still. E

Xi’an Famous Foods in Chinatown is a casual spot focused on the bold flavors and traditional dishes of Xi’an cuisine. The restaurant has a fast-casual setup where you order at the counter or kiosk, making it an easy option for a quick meal while exploring Chinatown. The space is simple with plenty of seating, and the open kitchen setup gives you a look at the preparation of their signature hand-pulled noodles and other dishes. The biggest highlight for me was the hand-pulled noodles. The noodle

I really enjoyed it. I ordered curry chicken and omg, the chicken was so tender. I felt the urge to ask how they make their soy so tender!!! I had a side of rice for that and honestly, it was a little dry. I also ordered the noddles with soup and it was ok, the bbq meat was the highlight of that dish- I wish it had more veggies. But udon noodles are my favorite,so I enjoyed it. I also had de cheesecake and was so creamy and not overly sweet, i liked it too! Good size portions.

Cute, lively Mexican restaurant that’s safe for vegans. I really enjoyed my empanadas and salad. The mole is a bit spicy. The service is sweet and thoughtful. Well worth making a visit!

We were immediately seated the day before for the 4th of July. We ordered the duck spring rolls and they were cooked perfectly and tasted wonderful. I also ordered the chicken and rum with garlic sauce. We also ordered he soy braised beef brisket with potatoes. We also ordered braised beef short ribs with gravy. Everything came out super fast and easy freshly cooked with the perfect amount of flavor. We got tiramisu for dessert.

This was our first time at Noodle Village in Chinatown, New York, and we loved it! Mimi, our server, was amazing from the beginning. She gave us great recommendations and was very attentive the whole time. The food was delicious, especially the Shrimp and Pork Noodles, which were full of flavor. At the end we ordered a ginger dessert that comes with three pieces, and it was the perfect way to finish our meal. It was a wonderful experience for me and my family. We hope that the next time we vi

Tucked in an unassuming unobstructed storefront on 100 Mott Street, SUPREME RESTAURANT has gained a HUGE following from its opening since 2020. SOUP DUMPLINGS xiaolongbao that do not break before eating. The thinnest skin yet still chewy and qq. As much of that sweet ginger vinegar as your heart desires. Must try the CRISPY BEEF: It has the CRISPIEST, SAUCIEST, Chinese bbq slightly tangy and fragrant with orange peel, unexpected crunch from thinly sliced onion and celery. You have never tasted a

Absolutely loved the mochi donuts here! They were so good that we ended up coming back a second time during our stay in New York. The texture was perfect—crispy on the outside, soft and chewy on the inside, with just the right amount of sweetness. My favorite was definitely the Onyx donut. It had an amazing flavor combination and stood out from the rest. Every donut we tried was fresh, beautifully presented, and packed with flavor. It’s easy to see why this place is so popular. The staff was f

My dining experience at Sheng Hui in Chinatown was very enjoyable. I ordered a variety of Cantonese dishes including shrimp dumplings, crispy roasted quail, steamed chicken, several stir-fried dishes, and osmanthus cake. Overall, the food was consistently well-prepared. The shrimp dumplings were fresh and bouncy, the steamed chicken was tender, and the roasted quail was a pleasant surprise. The stir-fried dishes were flavorful and very satisfying with rice. The osmanthus cake was a light and ref

Beautiful meal. Usually I’m skeptical about Chinese fusion, but everything was executed perfectly at Lei. The celtuce had a delightful crunch, which was paired nicely with a rich, but light and slightly tangy sauce. The Cabbage with yuba and morels was also very warming and had a great depth of flavour without being too heavy. We also ordered the shao bing, which, while simple was delightfully crunchy and paired nicely with the slab of butter inside. The mains, however, were the real star of the

Dim Sum Go Go is a fantastic find, especially considering its reputation as a budget-friendly Michelin-recommended spot. The food quality is exceptional and absolutely lives up to the hype. The standout of the meal was the seafood and meat platter - the colors and shapes were stunning, but the taste was even better. Anything involving the shrimp was simply incredible. We also tried the duck spring rolls, pork soup dumplings, and the Malaysian buns for dessert, all of which were great. A few cruc

I only had the Pho, but my lord was it good. The portion was huge too - which i loved. Service atmosphere absolutely zero complaints. Highly recommend. Will be coming back soon. (Pho pictured includes sauce I added)

Tried Super Taste in Chinatown and honestly, really solid spot. Got a mix of dumplings — Sichuan style were probably the best, super flavorful with a nice kick. Chicken dumplings and chicken soup dumplings were also very good, juicy and fresh. The only thing that didn’t really hit for me was the pork & chives kind of flat compared to the rest. Prices are actually really good for NYC, especially for what you get. We went as a group of 4, ordered a bunch of stuff, and everyone left full. Food ca

This spot is as unassuming. Was told that every table in this restaurant is usually taken so I got lucky. Ordered the beef cube over salad with fried rice and pho. The pho came with fish cakes, beef, and knuckles which were delicious. Absolutely in love with the beef cube especially with all the onions, tomato, and cucumber. Servers were awesome answering all our questions. Bathroom was accessible. Will definitely be back to try more entrees.

It was ok. We ordered a couple of the noodle soups—duck and spare ribs. The soups could have been warmer. We are on a quest to find the best noodle restaurant in Chinatown and this would be pretty far down the list. Supposedly the clay pot dishes are good and likely better than the noodle soups. We also got some truffle soup dumplings. We have definitely had better soup dumplings at other places. If we come back it will be for the clay pot dishes. I would pass on the rest.

I really, really liked the dumplings 🥟 and noodles 🥢. There were plenty of menu options to choose from as well. Service was a bit slow but I did like that they had all the condiments already on the tables. Portion sizes were huge 🦣 so that was a big bonus for me.

We wanted some basic Chinese-American food and we got exactly what we expected. Started with the fried wontons. Then we had moo shu pork, beef and broccoli, roast pork with bean curd (my favorite!) and salt and pepper lobster. The food was all very good. I liked the salt and pepper lobster but would not call it exceptional. Was very well fried and on the dry side, but good taste. We got there around 5 PM on a Saturday and it was easy to get a table. The staff was friendly and attentive. The pr

I found out about Chinese Tuxedo on IG. So glad that we decided to give it a try. We had the braised black pepper oxtail buns, crispy pork & chive dumplings, Johnny fried rice, tuxedo style Dan Dan noodles and the sweet & sour crispy prawns. Everything was really good. The tempura on the crispy prawns was coming off but that happens when it’s sitting in a sauce. I would absolutely visit again. The ambiance was very nice. Our waiter was very welcoming and knowledgeable. Christina, the manager was

Amazing servers, catering and hospitable and kind. Shoutout the guy with the cool hair and my Spanish speaking server!! Love bun rieu— it’s so good and has such good portion. Banh xeo is amazing too. Extremely affordable for the portions and can feed an entire family. Food tastes very good! We had an amazing gentleman pay for our dinner — kind people frequent here ❤️❤️ thank you Nam Son — we will be back!

Sweet Moment NYC is a cozy dessert café in Chinatown that specializes in Korean-style shaved ice, drinks, and creative desserts. The space has a comfortable and relaxed atmosphere with plenty of seating, making it a nice place to spend time with friends or stop by for a late-night dessert. The café has a playful yet welcoming design, with a focus on creating a casual spot where people can enjoy both drinks and sweets. The main highlight is the bingsoo, especially the fruit-based options that co

If there's something to experience in new york, it's this place!! The lady at the desk when we got in was absolutely lovely when we explained why we were late, and she offered for us to have the next 50 min session, instead of us getting the remaining 20 mins of the one we booked. The cats were all gorgeous, and feisty! They were (probably still are) so cute! Lots of Baby Corn merch which I was delighted to see.

House of Joy Star Rating: ⭐ ⭐ ⭐ ⭐ ⭐ Tucked into the constant hum of Chinatown, House of Joy is one of those rare dim sum halls that feels reassuringly untouched by trends—and all the better for it. This is not a place chasing polish or social-media fame; it’s where locals still come, where tables fill quickly, carts weave expertly through narrow aisles, and the language of choice is Cantonese, punctuated by the familiar rattle of porcelain and steam. The experience begins the moment you sit do

Very fair prices and like that even if you don’t have cash being allowed to pay with Venmo. Service was speedy and no frill. The salt and pepper wings were pretty good and the standout for me. Brisket noodle soup was just average which was fine, went in knowing that but was craving soup. Would come again and order bunch of appetizer type items . As a heads up, thought that before 11:30 you could order breakfast items and the rest of the menu and that after it breakfast stops, but it is only bre

Delicious and must try place. The owner was super sweet and friendly. Place is very cozy and clean. Def put all the sauces on the rice rolls and fish balls, its like a little flavor explosion. I got plain curry rice rolls and fish balls, and oyster sauce one with all the sauces. The plain curry was really good and comforting to eat in the cold chilly weather. The broth was really good and well seasoned. The oyster sauce one with the sauces was my favorite of the 2, and I'm so glad he recommended

Alrite place for mid-level banquet food. I would say that the food is authentic to what Chinese food was served in the scarcity of good ingredients. Nowadays, I feel that the fried rice is too dry, the walnut shrimp has too much mayonnaise, the ribs are too sweet and chewy, and the fried chicken is too dry. So overall I wouldn't go on my own. However I would go to feed a crowd of 100+. They pace the dishes well and their servers are attentive. Plus at 100+ you're not going for top tier food, ju

Chicha San Chen is so much more than a typical milk tea shop. This was my first time actually staying instead of just grabbing a drink and leaving, because I joined their tea tasting experience. It completely changed how I see tea. The tasting wasn’t like a lecture at all. It was interactive and engaging, and I learned a lot about Lishan oolong tea from Taiwan while getting to smell and taste every tea myself! All five cups! The whole experience took about 20 minutes and was absolutely worth it

1. Great food, can ask for modifications, from warming mala tang to bbq skewers to sauerkraut fish. went there many times in cold weather 2. Great service, extremely nice customer service very attentive. 3. Great option for big groups or even singular meals, their combos are amazing offering an entree, 10 skewers of your choosing, and even a drink. 4. Their main focus isn’t on dessert, and I’ve yet to tried theirs but i can tell you for sure their drink is great, whether taro or pineapple, it’s

Been wanting to come to this place for a while and it didn’t disappoint. $15 for a big plate of pork dumplings. They are super fresh. You can see them rolling the dough in the back. There was a short line, but it moved pretty quickly. The sauces they have are good. We mixed the two to make a nice dipping sauce. There is no searing, so you have to find a stoop or bench nearby, but for the price and quality of the food I would say that’s fine. I don’t recommend going in the winter, especially if i

Best dumplings I’ve ever had. No exaggeration. $5 for 13 or $10 for 26 — cash only. The value is unreal. Crispy bottoms, juicy filling, perfectly seasoned, and served hot and fresh. The line moves quickly, and it looked like a single older woman was running the entire place herself — major respect. We literally ate them standing in the street during a festival and it was perfect. Went back later for more and they had already closed — next time I’m ordering the large. A must-stop in Chinatown

CASH ONLY PLACE But there is an atm tho! Tried the fried dumplings and it was so good! Not the crispy deep fried dumplings, rather a soft steamed with crispy edges. Served hot and fast. We also got their duck noodle but honestly the broth taste so pork-y. The ambience is pretty nice, authentic Chinese lowkey humble resto with lots of stickers on the wall. The frozen dumplings (to take home) are far more affordable!
