One of the best Malaysian meals I've had outside of Malaysia. It truly was quite authentic. The chicken satay was delicious and nicely charred, the hookien mee, beef rendang was also delicious. My son had the nasi lemak and while he liked it, he didn't like the fried chicken wings. They had plenty of drink options and I personally loved my order of grass jelly and lychee drink. Overall a great experience. The service was also excellent. Look forward to coming back if I ever get to New York ag

I have been a repeat customer here, but after this visit I will not be returning... We dined the night before Lunar New Year and our bill was about $300+ Some staple dishes like the Peking duck and soup were fine. The issue was the service and how a complaint was handled. I spoke to our female waitress in Mandarin and asked her to recommend a fish dish with a bean sauce. She directed me to the hot and sour fish. What arrived was a $52 tilapia that was heavily fried, dry, and covered in an extr

I came to Cha Kee to eat on a Saturday afternoon. There was no wait! If you see a line outside, it’s most likely because of the neighboring Mei Lai Wah bakery, which you can walk past and go directly to the counter inside to get seated. The restaurant interior is clean and spacious, with plenty of seating, though some tables are connected, meaning parties could be seated close together. We were seated at a private booth and quickly ordered. I had the HK-style milk tea with ice, and it was s

Food was delicious and owner was very nice! We even got 2 free egg dishes (I’m not sure if it was because we had more people or if it was for everyone but it was still great nonetheless!) I got gamjatang (감자탕) and it was delicious, just wish it came with more potatoes, meat, and veggies most of it was just bone and broth. The bulgugi (불고기) was one of my favorites, really loved the flavor. I also ordered the mango banana smoothie, which was a bit pricey but it was still good, not much mango flavo

My family's go to spot in Chinatown for decades. The food has been consistently good for the most part. If you're looking for AUTHENTIC chinese food, i'd recommend the following Clams w/ black bean sauce (Clams are usually plump) Boneless flounder w/ vegetables Chicken (To be honest, I don't know the american name) Lobster Cantonese Style (Crab also available as a sub) Pro tip: Order white congee and mix with the minced pork Enjoy!

Highly recommend this spot for traditional wonton noodle soup. I ordered the beef tendon version, and the Chinese couple next to me both got the duck — everyone seemed happy with their bowls. The wontons are excellent, and the broth has great flavor: not too salty and not the kind that leaves you crazy thirsty afterward, which is pretty common at Chinese restaurants. This is a no‑frillsnplace with both locals and tourists mixed in. There’s a lunch special, though the wonton noodles end up aroun

I had been hearing from friends for a long time about how good this place is, and I finally got a chance to try it myself. It absolutely lived up to the hype! Every dish we ordered was delicious. The beef was incredibly flavorful and tender, and the Mapo Tofu was one of the best I’ve had. The real surprise, though, was the egg tart—it was so good that I would honestly come back just to buy the egg tarts alone. Everything was fresh, well-prepared, and full of flavor. Definitely a place worth sa

Savor each sip. Bazu is a curated coffee sanctuary for discovering new flavors. The acclaimed Japanese spot has now come to NYC. It elevates intentionality of flavor with top quality beans by notable roasters including, Glitch. The manager, Jonathan, takes immense attention to detail to bring out unique coffee flavors. I tried the drip coffee (Ethiopian/Brazilian blend) and 2 single-origin pourovers. Drip coffee: Dangerously drinkable. Light body, almost tea like, milk chocolate base with floral

fried chicken and sides are always fire. one time i ordered surf and turf and the staff gave me an extra tender and shrimp for taking a bit longer during a busy period.

Such a great experience here! The Pho was delicious, flavorful, and came out really fast. The staff was very attentive and they seated us in a huge comfortable sofa area which made everything feel extra cozy. Amazing service and food definitely coming back!! ❤️

If you’re in Chinatown and want an authentic, unforgettable meal, Joe’s Ginger is an absolute must-stop. From the moment you walk in, you can feel the energy of a true NYC classic—busy, welcoming, and full of amazing aromas coming straight from the kitchen. The dumplings here are next-level. Juicy, flavorful, and perfectly cooked every time. The soup dumplings are packed with rich broth, and every bite is exactly what you hope for when you’re craving real Chinatown food. The scallion pancakes a

This is the perfect Chinese crispy duck crispy pork belly restaurant. It survived the pandemic for a reason. Their seasonal green vegetables were crispy, flavorful, and tender. They were lightly drizzled with oyster sauce but, only a little bit and in no way overwhelmed it. My friend and I both ate our fill and, still had enough of the duck lo mein with its porky porky goodness to have as a dinner entree or lunch the next day . Take a look at the bill and, you will say you can't get better value

Found this cute little spot after craving something sweet, ordered the mango coconut sticky rice with ice cream and mango Millie crêpe cake, they were both very delicious!! we tried the sticky rice for the first time, although I never had it before it did leave a good first impression. For the mango crêpe cake , it was actually recommended by the waiter and I'm glad he did ! Great customer service ! Location is pretty small , seating is first come first serve. They also bring out the desserts

Yin Ji Chang Fen is a Hong Kong style spot that keeps the menu focused and does it well. We ordered the rice rolls, which are the main reason to come here. The chang fen comes out silky and thin, and they're generous with the toppings which makes a real difference compared to other places. The peanut butter rice rolls in particular stand out, they disappear fast and for good reason. The roast pork version hits a nice balance of sweet and savory that works really well together. The place gets b

The boba here is so chewy and delicious! The cloud matcha had a jasmine flavor to it, which was unique. The brown sugar boba (25% sweetness) was a great classic. They give you a sample of your drink to make sure you like it, then they’ll give you your actual drink! The shop is small and quaint. The drinks are only to go.

Happy hour everyday! I think the drinks are pretty good and they do have $1 oysters for happy hour. It’s very loud inside. Service can be quite slow.

Good! The Chrysanthemum tea was actually really good(4.5/5) with a strong herbal flavors. The black milk tea (2.5/5) was okay but had a strange after taste? The Japanese rice ball (4/5) was very good and the pork kimchi one is okay (3/5).

Ervin didn’t add my requested sour cream after i asked twice and was rude about the whole experience making it feel unwelcoming and i was greatly disappointed as no other chipotle employee has ever treated me this poorly or arrogantly. Im not a person to write reviews but this experience has made me want to write one even if this is a major restaurant chain. The 404 Broadway location was quiet with only a handful of gusts inside. The whole experience felt pressuring and i’m greatly disappointed

Love this chill little oasis is the chinatown swirl. Simple yet innovative dishes at reasonable prices - almost feels like an anomaly in modern manhattan. Can be relied upon for something tasty every time. Breakfast, Lunch, and Dinner all shine here. Feels a bit “undiscovered” and that’s ok with me, as it also feels busy enough to to sustain itself. Recommend.

heard about this place on youtube for their special steamed thai hainanese chicken (small) for $6.50 in cash and it was SOO worth it. i substituted the ginger rice for regular white rice since i got scared the ginger might super prominent but heard it’s a good taste so will definitely try it when i visit new york again! the only thing i wished was definitely maybe a little bit more portion of the chicken. (i enjoyed it a lot) there was more rice than chicken ratio which i didn’t mind too much, b

Amazing restaurant. Beautiful aesthetics and the owners are super nice and so is the bartender. They have an amazing happy hour all week. It's a super welcoming environment. The prices are super reasonable. Just be aware that gratuity is added to the bill. I have to go back and try their food.

A classic. You can't go wrong eating a meal here. I must have been here a dozen times and have taken plenty of family here too. The service and food are always top notch.

Came here on a whim to grab dinner. Wasn't sure what to expect but it always appears to have a good crowd. Overall it was a pleasant surprise. The bar was hopping and the food was good. Would recommend stopping by for drinks and food if in the area.

I was not wildly impressed with the food here compared to other places in Chinatown. My squid was somewhat bland, but I will give credit and say the dumplings were phenomenally seasoned and fried. The service was up to par and the restaurant is spacious. With that being said, the acoustics are quite loud. It’s not a bad place to go to if other places are on a wait, but I wouldn’t come here again.

They now serve breakfast combos!! Food Is delicious and plentiful. Love the hot tea that comes with breakfast. Will definitely come back.

I was introduced to this 'hole in the wall' cash only, self-service, Chinese BBQ restaurant by a friend. It featured a single countertop table with a limited number of stools for diners to enjoy the food undisturbed. I had a roast duck rice noodle soup. The broth was served separately to be poured in. The duck was succulent while its skin was crispy. The rice noodle was tender. The flavorful milky broth brought it all together. I will return for more :)

This place never disappoints! The staff are direct, but nice. There is no seating, so just know you'll need to eat it elsewhere, but it's worth it On the weekends, it can be 30 mins to get your order. Plan to walk somewhere for boba first (I love Cha Halo). On weekdays, it's less busy, but still expect to wait about 10 mins. My favorite thing about this shop is the rice noodle sheet itself. Many places overcook the sheet and it's just one big gummy mess. Yi Ji Shi Mo's rice rolls are silky and

Incredible black sesame latte and pastries. They use Counter Culture coffee so I knew the brew would be good but the sesame latte elevated the coffee itself completely. Make sure that you specify that you want the sesame latte /with/ espresso. For some reason that’s not implied in latte? Very creamy and too sweet either, though. Also don’t sleep on their baked goods from Balthazar either. I got the everything croissant which has a bit of cream cheese baked in and was blown away. They have so ma

After a great lunch at Maxi nearby, we stopped for coffee and pastry. Very busy with mostly take out customers. Limited seating inside so we were lucky to find a seat. Very good pastry.

We stumbled upon this shop post dinner and enjoyed a sweet treat! We got the smores croffle and it didn't disappoint! Note that the waffle was more chewy than your normal breakfast waffle. The ice cream was ice creaming and the combination of all smores toppings were delicious w the waffle. The store had limited seating but people don't stay long so there crowd fluctuates as they finish their desserts.

The pork chop is juicy and flavorful. No frills quick service with large portions. You are getting your money worth here!

This is my favorite noodle restaurant in nyc, i come have lunch here every time i visit. The food is incredible and for the price you cannot compare. The portion sizes are huge and i always struggle to finish my meal. They have vegetarian options which i personally love, as well as great side dishes. The staff are pretty chill and are very friendly. You can come alone or with a group of people, if you come with others the portion sizes are big enough to share! I adore this please strongly recomm

Ordered Curry soup and beef curry combo, the portions are gigantic, the flavors not bad, will try again. West New Malaysia is a highly regarded, long-standing restaurant located at 69 Bayard Street in Manhattan's Chinatown. Tucked away down a small arcade hallway, it is well-known for serving authentic, flavorful Malaysian comfort food in a casual, no-frills basement setting. Menu Highlights: The restaurant specializes in traditional Malaysian dishes, including Roti Canai (flaky flatbread with

Very underrated vegan spot that’s well worth the visit! The fries were the best I’ve ever had, very crispy on the outside but soft on the inside and well-seasoned. The Hawaiian burger was so unique with the pineapple and the vegan chicken. Definitely give the agave mustard a try too! Service was great and I could honestly try the whole menu.

Stopped by this diner-style café in Soho and really liked the overall vibe. It’s in a great location, and the staff was genuinely friendly. The food was absolutely fine and tasty; nothing overly fancy, but exactly what you want when you’re looking for a simple, solid breakfast at a fair price. If you’re in the area and want a casual place to start your day without overpaying, this spot is definitely a good choice.

Lots of options to choose from. They do in house competitions. Its nice that you only have to pay the entry fee. If you need a place to take kids, you can pay for them to play while you hang out for free or choose to drink from the bar. Lots of pokemon cards and collectibles and the people there are also collectors and players, so you can end up meeting some good gaming and collecting connects.

They have a small menu but the 3 items I ordered taste super good. Bun is very juicy. The fish meat skinned wonton (Yan wan) is very delicate in favor. The baked bun with bamboo roots flavored with red yeast sauce is very flavorful. Red yeast sauce is a culinary tradition among Hokkien people. Price is super affordable. They optimized everything.

Great place to grab an excellent chai latte and a croissant. Fast service with a smile and very nice atmosphere. We will definitely return to try more of their menu options.

A/C inside, quiet & relaxing break, the combo vermicelli bowl with pork and fried roll was amazing. It had so much protein (4 pieces of pork - hard to tell in the picture because they were stacked) and the flavor & sauce was on point. Really good value for the price. 10/10 recommend!

It's not my first time coming here but every time I do it has been very consistent in all the categories. The food is amazing - if this is your first time trying Malaysian food, you've picked a great spot. I believe all the options are approachable to a new audience. I highly recommend the string beans malaysian style. It comes with a good amount of shrimp, it's savory and a bit spicy. There's also great tofu options if you can't have meat. Service was great, staff was welcoming accommodating to

This place embodies the punk rock energy of the Lower East Side with its walls covered in stickers and graffiti, dim red lighting, and an awesome rock/punk soundtrack blasting in the background. The $3 beers and $5 beer + shot combos offer incredible value. Bartender Dmitri was hilarious and made us feel right at home. Although it’s a small space, the vibe is just perfect. We ended up spending around $15 per person for several drinks. This is a real dive bar done right, and I’ll definitely be ba

We had a wonderful experience at Cafe Hong Kong! The food was absolutely delicious and incredibly affordable. You absolutely must try their crispy chicken and the salt and pepper squid with its amazing wok hei. The lunch deals were amazingly reasonable. Plus, they gave us a free bowl chicken soup! 🍜😋

Ordered the grape drink and the matcha on the app and it took about 20 mins - half an hour to get two drinks even though we ordered on the app.. I was told that the matcha was good and had a strong matcha flavor. I drank the grape drink and there were barely any grape pulps at the bottom or tea it was mostly just blended ice with a little bit of liquid. Overall, the drinks weren’t worth the super long wait or price. There’s kiosks to order from and bathrooms are available. Update: Last time I t

Walking through Chinatown around 8pm, I wanted boba and this place had good reviews. The inside is small, but comes with a few places to sit. The service was very friendly and quick. My large milk tea with boba with light ice and medium sugar was refreshing. It wasn't very sweet. The boba was more hard and less flavorful than I'm used to, but it was still decent.

These burgers for sure K.O. a ton of the smash burger competition out there. They have some of the best, most well thought out versions that I've ever had. The knockout burger is literally how I would put together a smash burger—perfectly charred patty, melted cheese, onions, pickles, delicious pickled jalapenos, and the classic condiment combo with their slappin KO sauce. Fire. I'd hit that is another burger you should definitely hit up. It hits different with the truffle mayo, white cheese, an

So glad I felt pulled into this clean, bright, uncluttered tea shop to enjoy a delicious jasmine milk tea. They made it for me without sugar nor boba, as I don’t like it sweet. The staff is friendly and the tea selection top notch. They also have ice cream and beautiful tea pots. An oasis of calm in a calamitous part of town. Stop in for a yummy pick me up!

Great spot for late night authentic Chinese food in the city. Servers were all very nice. The restaurant was also very clean inside. We got little hot teas with our food which was wonderful. We ordered the Amoy Style Mei Fun Noodles, the Chef’s special Sweet and Sour Pineapple Fried Shrimp Balls and chicken soup. The Amoy Style Noodles were some of the best noodles I have eaten. Great flavor and not greasy at all.

Great rice rolls at West Rice Roll King! The rice rolls were beautifully made with super thin, delicate layers and filled with four jumbo shrimp—fresh, plump, and satisfying. They paired perfectly with a light soy sauce, making for a simple, clean, and flavorful bite. Since everything is steamed, it’s light and not oily at all—perfect as a snack. I also really appreciated the honesty and transparency from the front desk. We arrived around 6pm on a Saturday and were told upfront that the wait co

滷肉飯很道地. Got the braised pork chop, pretty well made, would love more sauce as personal preference 🤤. Lunch time is not crowded on weekdays. Would recommend if you like authentic Taiwanese food.

We grabbed a mocha latte and hot chocolates from Blue Bottle Coffee on our walk to Chinatown, and it was exactly what we needed on a chilly NYC day. The service was great this was a cozy moment in the middle of the city.
