“One of my go-to restaurants. Consistently good food and staff are friendly. Plus, the only place around that serves spare rib tips in black bean sauce.
Parking: Parking can sometimes be difficult because of the Italian restaurant customers taking up the specified chinese restaurant spaces.“

“Yingtao offers an elevated dining experience, honoring the owner’s grandmother with both its name and the thoughtful approach to each dish. The restaurant’s sleek, modern interior and open kitchen immediately impress upon entry. The tasting menu is a carefully curated array of dishes with refined flavors, with the duck, toast, foie gras, and nian gao standing out as memorable highlights. The flavors here are subtly layered and delicate, showcasing a restrained elegance that even extends to the desserts, which are perfectly balanced and not overly sweet. Service at Yingtao is exceptional, among the best I’ve encountered. The front-of-house team is attentive and professional, and a special mention goes to Ria, whose deep knowledge of the menu enriched my experience by offering thoughtful insights and explanations. Yingtao is a beautiful homage to family and fine dining—a truly refined experience that’s well worth a visit.“

“The atmosphere is very warm and welcoming. The women sitting at the front is very friendly and welcoming as well. As soon as we sat down they handed us our menus and gave us time to decide what we wanted to eat and drink. I give them 5 stars !!“

“all of the food was incredibly flavorful, even the traditionally more milder dishes were still packed with flavor. the interior was beautifully decorated and the staff very lovingly decorated the restaurant with halloween decorations for this season.
we loved the yunnan fried tofu with the super soft interior and perfectly fried outside, the best texture combination in our opinions. the deep fried short ribs had so much flavor and paired perfectly with the lime. the highlight of the meal, the yunnan signature crossing bridge had some of the most tender meat along with the soothing soup that was much needed on a cold day. the portions were pretty big and the food was filling.

“It is not often enough that great atmosphere and ambience pair together with great food, but this place has done just that.
Since their renovations last year the quality of everything from the plates to the whole interior design has improved. Not only that but the food is one of the best in the neighborhood.“

“The restaurant truly exceeded all expectations and left a lasting impression. The atmosphere was both cozy and sophisticated, making it an ideal setting for any occasion, whether casual or special. The staff were not only knowledgeable about the menu but also went above and beyond to ensure our experience was seamless and enjoyable. Every dish we tried was a masterpiece—beautifully plated, seasoned to perfection, and packed with rich, authentic flavors that showed off the chef’s expertise. The ingredients tasted incredibly fresh, and the menu offered a perfect balance of classic dishes and creative innovations. Even the smallest details, from the perfectly chilled drinks to the warm bread served at the start, were carefully thought out. The dessert menu was equally impressive, with indulgent options that were the perfect ending to a flawless meal. Overall, this restaurant is a gem, and I can’t wait to return!

“Ottimo ristorante di Ramen (giapponese e non quello "tarocco" o fatto con quello istantaneo del supermercato) che offre anche una fantastica selezione di ravioli. Prezzi tutto sommato accettabili per la media della città e acqua gratuita. Posto piccolo, accogliente, staff cordiale e velocissimo. Porzioni corpose quindi ordinate con cautela o non riuscirete a finire tutto.“

“small noodle shop near Harlem as a gluten free eater getting something satisfying and seasoned well without sacrificing quality can be tough. This place is a go to. They're fast, and my go to rice noodle pork combo tends to last me two meals for the price it costs. Can't advocate enough.
Dietary restrictions: gluten free“

“I made a Friday night reservation for my father's birthday, and it was packed by 7:30! The majority of the crowd was on the younger side.
That being said, it was a bit weird that I arrived with my family just a few minutes before our reservation time, but some younger couples behind us were greeted and introduced to their tables first. The hostess did request we honor a 1.5 hour seating and I thought that was pretty reasonable given how busy it was.
The food highlights were the whole fish and the unique fried glutinous rice balls! The whole fish was rich with a spicy and non-spicy diced broth, which was subtly spicy. Fish was cooked just enough to not fall apart in the chili pepper sauce. I've never had black sesame glutinous rice balls before deep-fried and then stir-fried with pickled mustard greens; it's a pretty interesting flavor combination that I ended up liking. It's a bit on the pricey side for what it was but worth trying if you're feeling adventurous.
Other dishes including the Chongqing noodles, sauteed pea shoots, and Zi Ding (spicy chicken), and truffle fried rice were perfect. I'd avoid the black pepper beef cubes, which were a little under-seasoned.“

“A little gem of a place smack down close to midtown: affordable, delicious, good portion sizes, and great ambience. The waiters are attentive and there’s a good buzz around the restaurant.
I ordered the seafood Lo Mein, the portion size was just right with a good amount of seafood and great wok-hei.“

“Din Tai Fung has been a long-time favorite of mine, and I’ve visited their locations across Asia more times than I can count. So, I was really looking forward to the opening of this NYC location. It took some time, but as soon as I walked in, I could see why. This isn’t like the more casual branches I’m used to – they’ve gone all out, creating a stunning space that’s perfect for a special night out. Though it’s a large venue, it feels intimate, and the table arrangement makes conversations easy. Service was excellent; our waiter was excited to introduce us to the restaurant and stayed attentive throughout the meal.
Now, the food! We tried two varieties of their signature xiaolongbao – the traditional pork and the pork and crab. Both were superb and just as good as what you’d find in Asia. The paper-thin wrappers are some of the best I’ve had outside of the Pacific, with great flavor and delicious soup inside. The pork chop fried rice was also outstanding – tender, juicy pork served over perfectly cooked fried rice. We also enjoyed the seaweed and tofu salad, which was a great starter. I did miss the wild vegetable tofu and sesame oil salad I’ve had in Asia, but I imagine it might be due to ingredient availability here. Prices are a bit higher than their Asian branches, but for me, the atmosphere and quality were worth it. I’ll definitely be back.
Note: Unlike other locations, this one is reservation-only.“

“I’m from China and had been long craving authentic good quality Chinese food. When I was in NYC this summer with my parents and boyfriend, we went to try this place out, and that was one of the best meal I had in my life! We tried Beijing duck and skewers as well as some vegetable dishes, everything was so delicious, nicely put together, and other items on the menu also looked authentic and delicious. Will visit this restaurant every time I come to NYC.“

“Amazing food, super flavorful and very light feeling where you don’t feel gross after eating. Service was great shoutout to Rakesh, very kind and fast server. And the fact that it is HALAL on top it, incredible. I go to a lot of Indian restaurants and this is one of best places I’ve been to.“

“Do recommend! Happy about this new addition to the Newport neighborhood. The interior is gorgeous with beautiful decorations. It is clean and spacious. We were excited to check it out and were not let down!! Fantastic experience through and through. Service staff was friendly and polite, attentive (frequent water refills and clearing of table was great). Food arrived fast and in proper order - first appetizers, then main course. Ordering via app helps accelerate the process, and what it also does: it gives the customer the option to decide when to aak for the check. Mind = blown! Awesome feature because you can always go back to order more at any time. Our dinner XP was extremely positive.
Recommendations: cold eggplant w special sauce appetizer (see photo) made my taste buds dance, Zha Jiang Noodles an indulgence. The Pork Pancake was crispy and good as well.“

Vegetarian options: There were lots of options and almost all meat options could be changed to vegetarian.
Dietary restrictions: Royer made sure to check with the chef so we could eat knowing that we were able to eat all the food. They also had a lot of options for our many restrictions.“

“I went with my partner on a Saturday and it was delicious. Our waitress Melissa was wonderful. She gave us the run down of the menu. We were looking for something spicy and she said the chili garlic beans and the spicy bowls would be great options. I opted for the Chang’s spicy chicken and we wanted to try the Mongolian tofu. She then suggested the Great Wall of chocolate for dessert. A wall of chocolate you say? Okay great. She knew her stuff. Very nice experience.“

“One of my favorite Szechuan spots in NYC. They are probably the best in LIC as mentioned in their name.
Only miss I’ve had here is the mapo tofu. Too much oil and had no meat.
But I would recommend the green beans, cumin lamb, dry pot. All delicious.“

“Food was good. Sweet and sour chicken: chicken was cooked well and seemed like better quality than other places. Sauce flavor was not amazing. Everything else was pretty good and authentic Hong Kong dim sum. Staff look professional and you can tell they work hard. I have to be back on the weekend to try the baked pork buns! “

“My friend and I picked this place because it was close and we were drawn to prices. The food was 5 stars. I got the biang biang noodles and she got the stewed pork over rice. I liked how thick the noodles were and it got more and more tasty as I got closer to the bottom because all the sauce was really concentrated. My friend enjoyed her simple yet comforting pork. She says it was very hearty and the soft boiled egg was the best part of the meal. The service was also very good. I overheard the Johnson at the counter taking time to chat with his customers. I could see him leading his team and hustling to serve each bowl of noodles. The atmosphere was clean and simple. I’d definitely go back again!“

“The environment of this restaurant is very good, very clean and tidy. The food is not only beautiful in appearance, but most importantly, it tastes great, with good color and taste. The cooking method is simply first-class, retaining the original taste of the ingredients. And the service attitude is also very good, which is a pleasant feeling. Especially a guy in a black suit and wearing glasses, he was very patient and had a very complete understanding of the dishes. Very good service, very hard work, thank you very much!“

“I had the seasonal shrimp bowl. Everything was great and flavorful and nutritious!! Exactly what I wanted for lunch. I imagine it gets busy on weekdays but it was very slow on Saturday at lunch time. Plus we got to try the salted egg fries which are only on weeknights and during the weekend. The value for the money is amazing here and hard to find in the city. Highly recommend you try it!“

“Guys guys guys. I eat here once a week, if I didn’t hold myself back I would eat here 3x a week.
My water is always full, and service is always on point and speedy.
FYI - I do not get the sauerkraut stew I get the chili boil (the red one) and get less peppercorns. I do basa fish and add beef tripe. I share this with my boyf and it hits the spot and the pre-tip total is about $24. With an extra rice it’s about $26.
I’m not kidding pls go here and try this combination.
It is heaven. It is crack. Surely there must be some sort of crack added. It’s ok I will embrace it wholeheartedly.
I LOVE YOU NAI BROS!! thank you for coming into my neighborhood and life ♥️♥️♥️“

This is a solid choice for hot pot, but I think there are probably better hot pot places in Manhattan.It has decent hot pot and ingredients but everything’s pretty standard and nothing’s really special that makes me want to come back again. Also I came for Saturday lunch and there wasn’t a lot of people there… Next time I want hotpot in Manhattan I will probably try a different spot, but this is not a bad option if you are looking for a standard, little above average hot pot.“

“A generous sized bowl of very flavorful noodles topped with seasoned Impossible meat crumbles. By NY standards $12.95 for this portion is an absolute steal! Everyone else selling similar dishes are in the $19.95 and up and smaller portions Although advertised as spicy ?️, I did not find it spicy at all . Next time I will ask fit a bit more spice I am not sure ? f I didn’t mix everything up very well, but as I got to the bottom , it taste a little on the salty side It still was delicious and great value for this dish While not a ? vegan restaurant, they do have several other vegan options clearly labeled They also have other locations in NYC , so check them out“

“I really like Lucas Sin, so I was expecting this place to be a little more. My expectations aside, the staff was overworked even after 8:30pm, but they were still courteous. I would say this place would still rank much better than Panda Express (there's one down the street), given that this is kind of like a make-your-own type of place (think Sweetgreen, DIGG, etc.) but with a proper Chinese flair (again, contrast with Panda Express).
I would say that the seating area was a little not well-maintained, but you are served with a bowl used for a take-out anyway, so just take it to a place you feel more comfortable eating.
Vegetarian options: Build-your-own, others are clearly marked on the menu.
Dietary restrictions: Vegan.“

“My boyfriend and I consistently go here on a weekly basis! We’re from the area, and absolutely love this little hidden gem. I’m a vegetarian so I always go for the general tsos bean curd with vegetable fried rice which is just delicious :) We will definitely continue to keep going back to China Dragon, and highly recommend it!“
