Had dinner at Le Xia in Manhattan and it was such a satisfying experience. We ordered the crab meat pot, BBQ skewers, and black pepper iron plate beef — everything came out flavorful and well-seasoned. The crab meat pot was rich and comforting, definitely the highlight of the meal. The beef was tender with a nice peppery kick, and the skewers were perfectly grilled with that smoky aroma. Portions are generous and great for sharing with friends. Overall, a solid spot if you’re craving Chinese-s
One of the few spots in Manhattan that actually tastes like authentic Chinese late night food 🌶️🦞 The signature crab pot was packed with crab, shrimp, chicken feet, rice cakes and potatoes, all soaked in a rich spicy sauce. The crawfish was super fresh and flavorful too. Also loved the garlic snow crab legs and BBQ skewers. Everything was seriously addictive. Definitely coming back again.
Amazing spot for crawfish in NYC! 🦞 The spicy crawfish were super fresh, big, and actually really spicy (even for me!). The crab pot was packed with flavor—loved the shrimp, chicken feet, and rice cakes. Perfect place to grab a beer and enjoy a fun, messy meal with friends. Definitely coming back! 🍺
