“I've been a loyal customer for Han Dynasty BK. First time here. Food is tasty and fresh as always. But when there were a lot of empty tables when I enjoyed the food, it would be perfect if the bill could be brought after being requested without making us feel in a rush.“

“Ordered takeout, didn’t eat in. Fantastic and very authentic. Here’s a tip, if they have jellyfish on the menu, it’s a real Chinese restaurant. And if you’ve never have jellyfish, just remember, at one time sushi was new and nobody in NY would eat raw fish … until they tried it. So try the jellyfish.“

“First time here food amazing will be back“

“Pig Heaven on the Upper East Side is a treasure trove for lovers of Chinese cuisine. This cozy spot combines inviting ambiance with a menu that delights the palate. Known for its impeccable BBQ spare ribs, each bite is a symphony of flavor and tenderness. The crispy roast pork is another favorite, boasting a perfect balance of savory and sweet.Top Recommendations:1. BBQ Spare Ribs - Tender, juicy, and bursting with flavor.2. Cantonese Roast Duck - Crispy skin and succulent meat served with wraps.3. General Tso’s Chicken - Crispy chicken in a tangy, spicy sauce.4. Wonton Soup - A comforting classic with delicate, flavorful dumplings.5. Soup Dumplings - Steamed to perfection, these dumplings are a must-try.The service at Pig Heaven is exceptional, with staff that make you feel like family. Mandy, often referred to as “the mayor,” ensures everyone is greeted warmly and taken care of attentively. The decor is simple yet charming, making it a comfortable setting for any dining occasion.In summary, Pig Heaven stands out for its consistently delicious dishes, friendly service, and welcoming atmosphere. It’s a perfect spot for anyone seeking high-quality Chinese cuisine in New York City“

“The food was great but the service was a bit off - It seems they have some service kinks to work out. There were several miscommunications while ordering and then during the meal I had several missed calls - when I finally answered it was the restaurant asking if I was still coming for my reservation. I informed her that I had in fact checked in and was already on my second course and they were somehow still confused. It was all very strange.“

“Food is great specially the Spicy Tofu bun and Kung Pao Style Tofu. Service is fantastic, very attentive, kind and got served pretty fast after ordering. Tables and chairs are quite small not comfortable for me. Would reccommed for the food and the service. Prices are decent too for the taste and quantity.“

“We had a wonderful event at For U, the food is absolutely delicious, I keep thinking about the cucumber salad it’s so crunchy and tastes so good, the sesame noodles are flavorful and so good, delicate and delicious version of that dish, the best I have ever had. And the Peking duck is divine. It’s a wonderful place for a party, they work with you to make it really special. The atmosphere is very relaxing and the space is warm and beautiful. We had a wonderful time and will go back for dinner very soon.Dietary restrictions: Our event served vegan and vegetarian options as well as standard fare“

“Never disappoints. Excellent food. Always packed“

“Be prepared for a wait. EXCELLENT FOOD!“

“The best sichuan serves some amazing authentic chinese food in NYC.The food is flavorful and spicy.If you can't handle spice, make sure to clarify it.Pork Dumplings in Chilli Oil is a must have.Ginger Ale goes well with the spicy food.“

“Great place for hotpot. Contemporary interior with iPad ordering and food flavors were super authentic. We got the 2 flavor broth - chicken chestnut & normal spicy level. And let me tell ya… the normal spicy level was SPICY. This is coming from a group of Chinese people. We went for my birthday and they had a crew come out with fun signs, birthday music, and dessert with a candle!“

“Hands down probably the best Chinese food in the city. I could eat here everyday.“

“The noodles are delicious and the environment is very nice. This is the only shop in Manhattan where I can relax and enjoy delicious food.The waiter's service attitude is very good. When I need to add water to my cup, you don't need to call him. He will come over to help me add water and ask me how my meal is with a smile.I will highly recommend it to my friends“

“Hospitality AAA FOOD AA PRICE A“

“Northern Sichuan jelly has a cool red oil flavor.The hand-shredded cabbage pot is very filling! Very appetizing!The twice-cooked pork is very generous, the meat is a little fatter, and the taste is very authentic.Green Sichuan Pepper Diving Fish, not very impressive in appearance, but the seasoning is so good that my lips are numb after eating it.The spicy pepper chicken tastes a bit like spicy chicken, I think it’s delicious!The spicy chicken is very, very tasty, and the taste is very rich, numb and spicy. The little twists inside are a surprise and delicious.The meat of chestnut braised pork should be fried first. It is very fragrant, fat but not greasy. The chestnuts are sweet and the sauce is perfect when mixed with rice.Black truffle cauliflower is a very special dish. The cauliflower is not the type that is cooked in a dry pot. It has a healthier taste and is quite delicious.Rice wine is added to the jelly, which is not very sweet. It can be used to relieve the spiciness, but it is not recommended.The beef in sour soup is super spicy and sour, very delicious.The beef chow mein was a bit salty.Potato beef is completely delicious that you can make at home.The red soup double crisp is okay. If you want to eat yellow throat and beef louver, you can try it.Husband and wife's beef slices are average.“

“Amazingly fresh tasty food!“

“I had eaten at the old Szechuan Gourmet before the 2018 fire, and I returned last night to find an updated dining room serving up the same delicious food. My dumplings with chili soy sauce were tender and perfectly cooked, with loads of heat in the sauce. Likewise, Double-cooked Pork was excellent, a spicy blend of pork belly and leeks.Service was great, friendly and efficient. Prices were decent, especially given the Midtown Manhattan location, although I was surprised to see a $2 charge included on my tab for a bowl of rice.If you love Szechuan (or Sichuan) cuisine as much as I do, go, you’ll love it.“

“Good ambient Good food Great services love this restaurants“

“Great food, everything it’s delicious !!!“

“Great fresh noodles, good balance of ingredients, tasty soup base, efficient and friendly service.“

“Most authentic Szechuan food in NYC. We ordered Garlic with water spinach, spicy chicken, pickled green beans with ground pork, and Peking style pork. Forgive me if the dish names in English were not accurate. Their chef comes from Szechuan. The service was very sweet! My whole family enjoyed this meal!“

“Super good food really authentic and I really loved the fish with chili oil!!! Definitely come here if you want authentic sichuan cuisine :))Update: still amazing two years later try the fish and sauerkraut soup and fried pig intestine platter delicious!!!“

“Holy cow was this food delicious! But be warned, some dishes pack a punch with the deeply aromatic spices. The flavors may not jive with people looking for typical Americanized Chinese food but it is definitely worth a try. Oh and especially the dumplings in chili oil and the red bean buns for dessert. The service was friendly and prompt!“

“New Szechuan restaurant in the East Village:Good:1. Good Szechuan food; we ordered the duck, squid, potato and pumpkin soup with short ribs.2. Staff was nice.3. Restaurant was clean.Not so great:1. Pricy.2. 2 dings, the squid dish was overrun with pepper slices and not enough squid, and the duck was a bit on the dry side.Overall a good Szechuan experience and good flavored Szechuan food.“

“Dim Sum Chelsea is by far the best restaurant I've ever been to. The food quality is outstanding, with generous portions served promptly. I especially enjoyed the pork soup dumplings, chive and shrimp dumplings, and the Jumbo Shrimp with bean curd. The jumbo shrimp dish, in particular, is a must-try! Additionally, the service is impeccable, with servers who are incredibly friendly and attentive. I highly recommend Dim Sum Chelsea for a fantastic dining experience.“

“Same place as Wok to Walk, but a little different. I have to say…, they made my hot and sour soup in front of me! Probably the best hot and sour soup I’ve ever gotten in New York City after living here for over 25 years.Also, the brown rice, fantastic, large portion. The cost is very inexpensive for what you get. The staff was lovely. The place is clean. I was really impressed by the new opening.“

“Very good well done food.“

“Great food. Ordered on line and picked up as this restaurant was a short walk from my hotel, the Midtown Hilton. I enjoyed the General Tsao's Chicken and the Scallion Pancakes. If I visit NYC again, I would definitely order again. The servings were large enough that I had decent portions for three meals. I didn't rate the atmosphere as my order was pickup. I spent just shy of $30, but as I mentioned, there was a lot of food.“

“The food was very delicious and the atmosphere was perfect. Kudos to the one who's playing the songs too. The vibes are nice. We especially loved the cripsy pork. We got skewers too and they were so good. Though the szechuan spicy pot and the extra spicy pot don't really taste that much different. But nevertheless, it was a great experience.“

“My favourite place in the area for quick, tasty, and affordable food. I’ve yet to be disappointed by any of their noodle dishes. The garlicky and slightly numbing Xi’an Cold Noodles and the tangy and appetizing Tomatoes and Eggs are my favourites. The service is quick and attentive. They’re always thoughtful in waiting to make my takeout order when I’m also dining in so the takeout will be hot and fresh.“

“BEST of thee UWS !!! ABSOLUTELY DELICIOUS“

“great service excellent food“

“The best Chinese food I’ve ever had“

“Food is good. Could be cleaner though.“

“I’m from this area and moved to Miami, which has no Szechuan Chinese. On a trip back to NYC, we went to China River based on location and reviews and it was TERRIFIC. If you are from NY or North Jersey, you know what to expect — spicy shredded beef, scallion pancakes, even delish basics like chicken and broccoli. Everything was exactly as it should be. We went back a second time before heading to JFK for the flight back to Florida.“

“When I came in from the outside I thought it looked like 1 of those sketchy places you see in a strip mall on the highway. When I sat down I was happy too see that the waitress came quickly and efficiently brought the food out quickly aswell. I ordered the chicken fried rice and it was delicious. I would definitely recommend going here on a date. The only thing keeping this place from a 5 is there above average prices.“

“Corner Chinese restaurant. Small, clean place with good service and very reasonable prices for the city. Service is excellent. Food is just okay. Clean bathrooms. Beer available. Don’t even think about driving here…Vegetarian options: Many optionsDietary restrictions: Options availableParking: Very difficultKid-friendliness: It isWheelchair accessibility: It is“

“Hunan Kitchen on Lexington Avenue offers an exceptional dining experience. The seating arrangement is excellent, ensuring comfort during your meal. The staff goes above and beyond, displaying friendliness and thoughtfulness throughout your visit. Today, I savored their sliced fish paired with white rice and sweet and sour soup from the lunch menu—a delightful combination of flavors. The dishes are consistently served piping hot and beautifully plated, adding to the overall enjoyment. On occasion, I indulge in combining two lunch specials, finding the ox tongue particularly delicious and refreshing when served cold. Overall, Hunan Kitchen is truly amazing, delivering outstanding cuisine alongside top-notch service, making it a must-visit destination for any food enthusiast.“

“wonderful food. well spiced and tasty. we just had the braised fish and scallions with pea greens and brown rice. yum“
