This is not your average Chinese take-out spot. Friendship Chinese is a high-end experience at a surprisingly accessible price point. The care they put into every detail of this place is honestly astounding. Every time I come something is different, adjusted, elevated. They don't stop paying attention and working to make the dining experience even better.
Hot towels?
Welcome drinks?
I mean. . .
Go dine in person, get the red snapper, share...

I love this place. I lived in the neighborhood and one day, NY's eve, we ordered and have not stop going since. Food, atmosphere, and service are amazing. Owner is so great and kind. Can't say enough, highly recommend this restaurant. True gem!
