“A great spot in the UES for Thai. They have lots of great options - I got the Khao Soi today. The chicken is super tender and rich. The broth is creamy and bursting with flavor. I got Thai spicy level which wasn’t really that spicy to me… I love spicy food though!Decent portion size for the price for the khao soi. I think the other portion sizes are a bit smaller for the price point in my opinion.Good spot for a date or casual dinner“
“Delicious food and great atmosphere! After a long day of running around it was so nice to sit down and have a great meal where everyone around you is having a fun time! We started out with the Scallion Pancake and Vegetable Dumplings. I don't eat Scallion Pancakes very often because most places don't make it very well. Joe's Pancake was perfection! Cooked just right with layers of flavors. The Dumplings were light and fresh. For our main course we had Chicken with Broccoli and Sauteed Crystal Shrimp. Both were delicious and very generous portions. It was the first time I had had the Crystal Shrimp and I couldn't stop eating them. The Staff was very nice and we felt very well attended to but not overly so. We are really looking forward to returning so we can try some dishes that we have never had before.“
“Everything about this place is excellent. I had the chicken satay and the beef pad see ew and all I can say is, don’t be afraid to try them out, you will not regret it!To drink I ordered the Lychee-plum and if you like sweet drinks, I can assure you will love this one as much as I did.“
“The food was delicious!!!! A friend told me that it would be very spicy, but I didn’t find it to be so. (Definitely had a zip to it but not too extreme) Service was attentive and pleasant. The only downside was the seating. The chairs were more like elementary school short stools. Quite uncomfortable, but I’d definitely go back just for the food!“
“Another brilliant meal! I never miss the opportunity to eat here when I’m in NYC and I Love sharing this place with people I know. An exceptional menu, great cocktails, amazing and attentive service and always a delightful culinary experience. Bravo!“
“This location is hands-down a high-quality place. I'm currently in grad school, and this place has never failed me when I order something to go. I've tried most of the main dishes and they are all great. The food has lots of flavor and is always served hot. When I order delivery, the order is always delivered quickly and the customer service is great. I highly recommend everyone in the neighborhood give this place a try.“
“Whether one is a novice or ramen aficionado, the Tomato Beef Stew Noodle is a good soup to try. The entree was reminiscent of a beef sinigang albeit without the tamarind. The boneless meat just melted in my mouth.The atmosphere was warm and so was the service. There is also a kiosk available near the door of one wishes to order takeout.“
“We visited E.A.K. Ramen and were blown away at how wonderful our experience was. The service, food, and atmosphere were everything we were looking for. We recently visited Chicago and had ramen, which set the bar high. E.A.K. Ramen met our expectations and beyond. You can truly taste the love their team puts into preparing food. Our server even went out of her way to mix me a mocktail that ended up tasting better than the drink I originally had in mind. We will absolutely visit E.A.K. again. Thank you all for such wonderful service.“
“The sushi and sashimi were amazing! The Tamago, miso soup and matcha iced tea were wonderful. And the staff here is fantastic! I asked to buy a cup to take as a souvenir for my son- who loves sushi - and they gave me one! Thank you all so much!“
“I’m addicted to eating these instant ramen noodles with the birria meat ?!! It was super delicious, noodles were cooked perfectly, and the meat was very savory, it also had a touch of spice to it, which made it even better ??!I also enjoyed the ambiance of the restaurant it was very minimal and cute to eat alone or with friends. I met the owners of the restaurant and they were very kind and helpful when I came my first time ☺️“
“Love this little gem of a place I found! Their dumpling soup is 5 stars. The dumplings are handmade, delicious and humongous! The broth is SOOOO good. I love how they sell you their handmade frozen dumplings for a great price. Just bought some today! This is going to be my new fav go to!“
“First visit 11/05/2023: The sukhothai noodles are beyond amazing, the flavors are so fresh and my mind was blown away by the combination of sweet, sour, nutty, fishy, and umami flavors. Will definitely be coming back for more!Second visit 04/15/2024: Ordered sukhothai noodle bowl again as I loved it so much last time - I believe it was cold last time? This time it was served hot, which I didn't like as much. Recommend ordering with standard rice noodle btw (not vermicelli as shown in photo). Also tried my friend's pork blood broth noodle soup which I didn't like much, but might be an acquired taste, and really enjoyed the pork meatball skewer!Keeping 5-stars for excellent food and service!“
“Bangklyn is without a doubt one of the tastiest and most unique restaurants in the city. The food is amazing and fresh, especially the fried chicken. The owner/cook/busboy is awesome and even though he won't say much, he is kind when he does talk and he works really hard to serve the customer. As for the decor, is it a thrift shop? Is it just decoration? It's difficult to tell, but either way it's cool. Highly recommend.“
“Strongly recommend Native Noodles.Had a really wonderful catering experience from Native Noodles. We ordered the laksa, Singapore noodles, curry, and bok choy and everyone at our event loved it. There was was more than enough food, it was well-priced, and it was delicious. The staff were particularly attentive and caring! Thank you for making our event a success and for having such delicious food!“
“Absolutely fantastic sushi. Amazing quality and out of this world flavor. Staff was so friendly. I showed up exactly at open and they were so happy and accommodating. I usually find showing up at open is a visible nightmare for servers. This is my new favorite spot for sushi. And it’s very quick.“
“I’m not usually the biggest fan of ramen but the miso ramen was sooo good! genuinely the best ramen i’ve ever had. the staff was very nice and made sure i knew what kind of meat was in my dish before ordering. i work nearby and will definitely return soon!“
“Fantastic small Vietnamese restaurant, with great food, even better service and ok seating. For a small location, they made good use of their limited space and they communicate regularly if the food will be delayed. My only small complaint would be probably due to the kitchen being so close and the ventilation not being great, our clothes had the food smell afterwards but I won't take a star off since it wasn't too bad. I know their prices will go up eventually but their current price for their food quality is hard to beat.“
“I got the basic Ramen and it was great! Next time I will add the extras. It was our first time so we didn’t know what to expect. Great texture and the broth was rich. Absolutely amazing! All I knew was that a friend said it was one of the most authentic places he has been to and he recommended that I try it while in New York! Not disappointed at all!!“
“Minuscule Eatery The wall composed of whitish equally sized rectangles throughout exudes few colors or lively shapes. Flavor is minimal. Customer space includes a limited number of tables, tables rather thin, compressed, best fit for only two seated diners; crowded with dishes. Only two other diners are present this afternoon, seated nearby, one wearing friendly NYU labeled pants. Diners hunger for presence of more diners! Ambience: too quiet, not much happening. Other than nice plants it's rather bland, confined. The interior surroundings, the waitpersons, and to some extent the food have moderate unique vibe. Sofun, try to find a balance of these aspects. We experienced the tasty combo of the chilled rice noodles with carrots, cucumber, peanuts and bean sprouts; century egg salad with grilled pepper and eggplant; inviting historical Durian puff pastry dessert; and black salted egg custard bun. 'These look beautiful and have pleasant smells. A peaceful, not noisy, aura emerges, unusual because no loud music splashes one's ears and no unique waitpersons, often present in eateries, run up and down the space. After passing so many "loud," demanding noisy signs, businesses, etc. via Manhattan on the way to Sofun, the mini restaurant is a quiet contrast to the screaming business advertisements on the streets from competitive, demanding midtown Manhattan island endroits. Experience the quasi delicate repose at Sofun albeit also the accompanying empty feeling. Hope that Sofun doesn't become even one bit more tiny.“
“My partner and I have been coming to Susuru, more or less once a week, for about a year now. It’s « our spot » we love it. We get the same order every time, miso ramen and spicy tuna poke. I usually get a lucky cup sake as well. We love the takoyaki as well, but all their apps are great. The atmosphere is incredible. We love the going on a quiet, rainy day around lunch time.“
“Dynamic food. All locations do NOT taste the same, unfortunately. However, this location right 'chea, was EVERYTHING!!! My Mt. Qi hand ripped noodles was ah-mazing ❤️. I have to shed a tear ?...or more. My best Xi'an Famous Foods location by far and I've frequented 6 locations within 3 boroughs.“
“Very satisfied with the taste and portion size of Thai takeout from Thonglor, which may have gotten a new owner or chef since the old Red Basil? Green curry is tasty and includes nice large chunks of eggplant and bamboo shoots. Noodle dishes like pad kee mao and pad see ew have generous portion of noodles. We normally order from Pochana but have a new favorite in Thonglor, which costs slightly more but you definitely get a larger portion and good quality in return.“
“What a nice surprise as we accidentally stumbled across this place. I had the hot soba noodles with rice and curry and my friend had the grated yam soba noodles. We shared the grilled mackerel which was perfect! Definitely will be coming back here!“
“I don't understand why people are so mad at this place for adding gratuity. The food is absolutely amazing and the two times I went we got it within 10 minutes. People are saying the service was bad too, but the waiters were nice and graceful when someone's order was messed up.Kid-friendliness: I went there with kids too and nothing special was done, not in a bad way. They were treated like actual people and not like incapable children. This was refreshing from the other restaurants that are like "and so what does your kid want"“
“It was my first time here and the seafood kalguksu was so delicious. It's full of seafood, the broth is delicious, the servers are very friendly, and I highly recommend the soft tofu seafood kalguksu when you're craving something spicy. It's too bad I live far away and can't come often.“
“Ordered delivery from here. Food arrived still warm, Thai iced tea cold refreshing but not too sweet. I had the Pad Kee Mao with chicken lunch special, which comes with spring rolls as appetizer. The noodles were cooked perfectly, chewy with just enough bite, saucy and spicy. Chicken was tender and there were plenty of veggies in addition to egg. The spring rolls were good, crunchy and come with dipping sauce. I also tried the crab Rangoon, a bit high on the crab: cheese ratio but still tasty. Will definitely be ordering lunch from here again!“
“You have to try it at least once! Very authentic tasting Thai food. I live in Thailand and eating at Lenoxthai is the same thing as eating Thai food in Thailand. I don’t like spring rolls in the US because most restaurants in the US don’t get the spring rolls right, but Lenoxthai’s spring rolls are the best spring rolls I’ve had in my life.“
“I've gotten food from here four or five times (mostly ordered out but dined in once) and have loved it every time! Really flavorful meals, generous portions, and friendly staff. They're really efficient with preparation time. Cute interior and a welcoming vibe. One of my new restaurant recommendations!“
“As with all Asian spots, always try to time your visit when it's not busy. Interior is simple and really samples the street elements of Saigon - sheet metal, wooded sloted window panes, cafe du mond all over. Menu design has a dope ode to their Vietnamese history - important because identity plays into how authentic the food will turn out.Ordered the BBH. Clean & absolutely flavorful broth. Service was really prompt. Soup came out in less than 10m, just like how they used to speed serve at the the old Miss Saigon in dtjc. That's top tier quality & service for me. 10s across the board. I've found my new soup spot since New Thanh Hoai had to shut down“
“Cha Pa's Noodles and Grill is a must-visit for Pho lovers! Their soup is simply amazing, with rich flavors and perfectly cooked noodles. The broth is flavorful and comforting, making it the perfect choice for a cold day or any day you're craving something warm and delicious. The portion sizes are generous, and the prices are reasonable, making it a great value for the quality you receive. If you're in the mood for Pho, Cha Pa's Noodles and Grill is the place to go!“
“It’s Chipotle prices for food that’s flavor and quantity wise- at least $5 more.F- any other bowl place. Why, when this spot exists ? The bespoke options are exceptional. The quality is superior. The quantity is robust.If you need flavor in your life, skip the Karen spots. Life is too short for bland food. Especially when we are all an AC unit away from falling on our heads and sending us to Elysium. Don’t walk here, run.“
“I ordered take out during a recent visit to NYC. I eat vegan (mostly), so I asked them to veganize their pad see ew, and also got an order of their summer rolls. Both were AMAZING. I had been having some pretty mediocre food at a lot of purely vegan restaurants, and I'm so glad I branched out for this meal. I just wish they could make their curries vegan, as I'm sure they would be delicious, too.“
“Let me start with the constructive feedback- and if you are still reading based on the scoring- you clearly want to try this place. -Wish there was a more accessible entry- not stroller friendly. -Wish some of their dishes came with sauce to dip in since a lot of it is finger friendly. -Wish their menu didnt label all the seafood items as vegetarian. Now the good, because a little bit of lifting and asking can help with the above! Service was amazing. Our server was super informative and guided us on our culinary excursion. Szechuan Ravioli- spicy vinaigrette so may be a little on the sour side for some, nice crisp on the outside Fried Rice- serviceable, not much to it Impossible Duck Bun - vegetarian, nice flavor profile and a good bite Vegetable Bowl - lots of veggies and a choice of noodles or rice. Get the noodles. Shanghai Wontons- we ordered this last but we should have done this first... and in multiples. My fav dish because I am a sucker for spicy peanut sauce. Spicy Vegetable Bun- also a great bun, cant go wrong with any of them really. Nice sauté on the vegetables and great flavor. If you made it this far....go! Get those shanghai wontons to start and see where your journey takes you!“
“I don’t normally love Thai food but the Red eye chili paste chicken is so good and spicy that I know I will be thinking of this dish for some time. Every ingredient is fresh, the chicken was perfectly tender and moist, and the rice omg it’s so good. You can tell it was prepared with immense care. The one man chef/owner also gave me great recommendations from the menu and tips on how to enjoy the food at home. He is SO sweet. The ambience is so lovely and quaint as well!! ?“
“The food was so good! I’ve been to Bangkok and Phuket, plenty of times and this place really captures the authentic art of Thai cuisine. Will definitely be returning to try more of what’s on their menu!Parking: Plenty of spots around the restaurant.“
“My favorite noodle restaurant in the greater New York area. Authentic taste and reasonable price with large portions. Have tried more than half of of their noodle selections and enjoyed all. Not so much for their dessert though.If you enjoy strong flavors and spicy food, this is for you. Their spicy level is no joke and a true Chinese standard.“
“We found this amazing spot by mistake and so happy we did.. the food is always delicious and fresh and the owner is the nicest person, she’s always welcoming and accommodating. As a vegan the owner always ensures that my meals are just that.. vegan! After only the second visit she recognized us and made us feel like friends. I would recommend Chok Dee Thai to anyone looking for a casual yet delicious dining experience.“
“I only got their bahn mi sandwiches for years since it was very good. I tried their curry noodles which were ok, went back to the bahn mi. I then tried the spicy lemongrass soup and chicken pad thai which were both terrific. Very generous portions. Look forward to trying their other dishes. The staff is welcoming and courteous, and they give you a nice cup of hot tea. There’s plenty of additional seating outdoors on a nice day. I agree with another reviewer’s comment that there is a lot of extra packaging/containers for takeout, especially for the toppings and sauces. Maybe best to eat at the restaurant, and to take the rest home, much less packaging.Vegetarian options: They have vegetarian soup broth upon request“
“We are visiting New York for the first time in 10 years and I was craving Asian food. Found this place on yelp and picked it out of proximity. Literally everything we had was incredible. Delicious hole in the wall with a couple of tables to dine in.“
“Overall rating: 4.8Really good ramen spot in Fort Lee. Already has great reviews which I’m not surprised. MUST get fried chicken. Wish they served it as a meal! I did the dipping ramen and it did not disappoint. Sooo good.Also I couldn’t finish mine and their to go box was so cool. I was a little concerned at first, it would be difficult to carry home. But it wasn’t! Also you order thru an app, so there’s no confusion on the bill when you go with large parties which I love! It was so easy and highly recommend.“
“I don’t usually write food reviews but Wow to this restaurant!! My most favorite Thai restaurant in the UWS or even NYC. As a Thai person living in NYC i can say everything I ordered from here are so authentic! The food so fresh and flavorful plus the service is top notch! If I could give 10 stars I would! Highly recommended this place to everyone!“
“This is the third version of Hagi I've dined at, and closer to the first - the basement on 49 Street - than to the second, and that makes us happy. The food is good to very good. The Happy Hour to 630 PM is a good value. The menu is large. Knowing roughly what you want before you go is a good idea. We've enjoyed the crispy rice & tuna, kushiyaki A, oshinko, Japanese sausage, seaweed salad, Toki Highballs, Soju, Sochu, and Happy Hour Sake. The vibe is comfortable and unfancy. We make this a go-to.BONUS good valueSHOUT OUT to May for excellent service.TIP location across the street from the Circle in the Square and Gershwin Theaters.TIP no reservations“
“Stopped here on a trip back home, by chance as we stopped at the HMart around the corner. Beautiful space and waitstaff were so welcoming! We weren't up for a big meal but we got the mandoo soup and dumplings for our daughter. I know I probably should have ordered noodles as that is their specialty, but was unsure if it would affect my sugar levels a lot. I guess the mandoo wrappers would have similar effect, so, oh well! We were greeted with a warm broth tea that was delicious, a little salty, but so comforting on the cold day. Loved our mandoo soup! Flavor was so good! My only wish was that the mandoo in the soup was smaller. It was bigger than golf ball size and was a little difficult for me to eat without feeling I was doing so "inelegantly". They were filling too, but so much to bite into. But this is just my personal preference. Overall, great place and great food, with lovely ambiance and wait staff.“
“Went to Thai at Lex with a friend and ordered chicken pad Thai with a side order of spring rolls and thai iced tea. We had a pleasant server and enjoyed the atmosphere. The place had good traffic in the take out section and that gave me a sense that people like the food. I would definitely go again when I'm in the area.“
“This place is amazing! I had the chili wontons and omg! The wonton is so juicy and the chili sauce is so tasty! Also had the fried chicken rice bowl Which was really good. The service is a bit slow because they're so busy. The ambiance is ok. No one actually sitting and eating. Luved it and can't wait to go back!“
“I was leaving from New York and wanted some hand pulled noodles. Luckily there was something around the way and they did not disappoint! The pot stickers and noodles were fire. Service was great and the food came out fast. It was just what I wanted!“
“Menya Sandaime Ramen offers a delightful culinary experience with their flavorful ramen and exceptional service. The rich, savory broth paired with perfectly cooked noodles creates a delicious combination that keeps you coming back for more. The attentive and friendly staff add to the overall dining pleasure, making it a must-visit spot for any ramen enthusiast.Vegetarian options: Vegetarian ramen option“
“*Wrote this review on yelp already but it had a word limit. So this review will act as the full review as it will contain all the items I’ve tried* This place is phenomenal in every aspect. The food is very authentic, flavorful, and all items are reasonably priced. I tried out their food on Oct. 3 and again on the 9th. The first time I did a take out and the second time I did a dine-in. It is THAT delicious that I needed to create a Yelp account to write my review for them and is absolutely worth my travel from Staten Island to downtown. Below is a list of foods that I have tried plus my take on them from both of my visits there. I'll write it in the order of which I tried it. There'll be pictures of food, the menu, and the restaurant itself. It's super homey and welcoming! A definite must! I'll be going back again next week to try out other items that I have not yet had the chance to have. 1) The pork rougamo: It is like a savory crispy pancake sliced down the middle sandwiching juicy and mouthwatering pork belly. My friend who doesn't normally eat pork belly because it's so fatty, LOVED it so much that we had to get it again the second time we went together. It's got the perfect amount of meat and crunch to it. Just make sure that if you do not plan to eat it right away, please re-heat it in a toaster oven so that it'll maintain it's crispiness. (The heat of it in the bag might soften it a little but it won't ruin the experience! I promise you!) 2) Pan-Fried pork dumplings: The skin that is used to wrap the dumplings in is not too thin or too thick. It's got just the right amount to it. The pork filling itself is extremely juicy and flavorful! They don't cheat you out on the fillings either. You'll definitely get a satisfying amount of meat and wrapping with every bite. If you like spicy oil like I do, it'll definitely enhance it even more! This is also an item that requires some time to make because they pan fry it fresh! (If you're in a hurry, make sure to call ahead for your order.) It's not like other places who have it already pre-fried and just reheat it making it lose it's juiciness from over cooking when an order is place. That's an extreme plus in my book! Obviously, I made sure to get it again the second time I was there. 3) Stewed Duck Leg: This is absolutely tasteful! It's not like your typical roast duck that you'd find in Chinatown hanging in front of a window; full of fat and lingering gamey taste. When I took my first bite, I was not expecting to be exploded with flavor and lean meat. My friend never liked roast duck and has always been "yuck" about it gave this a try, she ended up eating 3/4 of it! She couldn't stop herself from picking at it! So if you have never had duck or have not had a good experience with duck before, this is definitely worth trying! And for those of you who do like duck, you absolutely must! 4) Beef Stew Noodle Soup: We ordered this with hand-pulled noodles... and gosh, I can still taste it in my mouth. The perfect texture of the noodles; it was not soggy at all and had this nice bounce to it. I believe you can ask about preferences for noodles. The beef stew and the soup was the perfect combination! You can taste the beef in the soup and know that it has been stewed for a long enough time! It's not too salty and has a light feeling to it so that you don't feel overly stuffed afterwards. I highly recommend this item! 5) Steamed Fish Filet Dish: This was SOOOO good. If you're like me and absolutely hate fish with bones and always go for fish without, this is definitely a must! The size of the fish filet is phenomenal! I've been to places where the filet order is smaller than the size of my hand but this place, you get a very big and satisfying bite! Whatever it is that they coat it in has the perfect flavor to go with it. And there's some kind of broth that it's cooked in... let me tell you, that was heavenly! After I took my share“
“Food was one of the best ever. Good quality and worth the price. Love the Thai Iced Tea, not too sweet. Spicy glass noodle salad is a must.I've been here twice.Got different server each time.Both of them wasn't really attentive.Hard to get their attention even it's not busy. Might consider just a take out next time so I don't have to waste money on tips when I barely get a service.“
“Great kosher place with a cool vibe. The menu is pretty big and the service was extremely nice and helpful. Food tasted fresh and amazing.Vegetarian options: No meat in the store, if you don't want fish they have many non fish items as wellDietary restrictions: Kosher and vegetarianWheelchair accessibility: Ground level“
