The bean curd with pepper oil. All of it. Cocktails were banging too. And the servers were all fantastic too. Even the ink was top shelf!“

“Walking through Brooklyn on a grey day wondering where to eat, my wife and son and I ran into an old friend carrying takeout from Petite Dumpling. She highly recommended them, which was all we needed. Everything we ordered was fabulous and we're already planning our next visit--tomorrow. The best!“

The food was delicious. We ordered crab soup and pork soup dumplings, as well as dry noodles and spring rolls. Everything was well packed and delicious.“

“😍My very first time here. I was served by Jason, food captain. I guess I was spoiled by his hospitality because I tell you, WHEN I return, if I not being served by him, I'm not going. Every now and again you come across a server who truly enjoys making people fell comfortable, that's Jason, in a nutshell. The food was extraordinary, complimented by spectacular recommendations and hospitality!!!!“

“Authentic Cantonese cuisine. I was brought up in Guangzhou and these dishes here are the same delicious as the ones I had back in Guangzhou.“

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

“Found this gem today and quite happy we did! We had lobster with pan fried noodles and young chow fried rice. For a party of 3, it was more than enough and with one order of the har gow dim sum we even have enough to take home! The lobster was fresh and the noodles delicious, the young chow fried rice is very tasty and not oily. The staff are very courteous and attentive and the place is clean and welcoming.“

“Food is excellent! Service is great.“

“I absolutely love Fan Szechuan and I will gladly come way out of my way just to get my hands on their chicken lo mein. The flavor is incredible, perfectly savory, and easily some of the best noodles you can find around. That being said, trying to order from here can honestly be a bit of a nightmare. Calling them over the phone is gets tough at times because of language barriers and thick accents so you really have to be a patient kind of person, especially if you want substitutions or multiple items. It doesn't help that their online menu is outdated and they don't carry some of the items listed anymore. Also, if you want broccoli in your chicken lo mein, they get you with an extra charge. Fine and standard. However, even after paying extra, they only give you a comically trace amount of it. Seriously, you can count the pieces on one hand.
And yet, I completely forgive all of that. The food just tastes so great every single time that the minor headaches are totally worth it to me. If you want top-tier comfort food, just put up with the janky ordering process and get the chicken or vegetable lo mein. Can't go wrong with it.“

“This is a super convenient place stop by if you are in the Times Square area. I got the purple yam cake and bun and they were both delicious - not too sweet! There are tons of different food options depending on how hungry you are. The food is made fresh on the spot, and the staff is extremely friendly if you need directions or trip suggestions. I will definitely be returning to Mr. Wu anytime I am back in the area.“

“Dao Dim Sum on Madison has officially stolen my heart — and my appetite — with one of the best dining experiences I’ve had in a long time. Every single dish was beyond phenomenal. If you’re looking for a place that consistently delivers flavor, freshness, and pure culinary joy, this is *the* spot.

I indulged in a lineup of dishes, and not one missed the mark:

**• Salt & Pepper Lobster** — Perfection. Crispy, tender, seasoned flawlessly. Every bite felt like fireworks.
**• Salt & Pepper Calamari** — Light, crunchy, and unbelievably addictive. I could eat this every day.
**• Cucumber Salad** — Refreshing, crisp, and the ideal balance to all the rich flavors.
**• Scallion & Ginger Lobster** — Aromatic, buttery, and absolutely luxurious. A standout dish that melts in your mouth.
**• Fried Noodles with Shrimp Soup** — Comforting, flavorful, and the kind of dish you crave long after you leave.
**• Salt & Pepper Shrimp** — Juicy, perfectly seasoned, and cooked with so much skill it should be illegal.

Every plate was a hit. The flavors were bold, fresh, and beautifully prepared. The portions were generous, the presentation was gorgeous, and the overall quality was top-tier.

Dao Dim Sum on Madison isn’t just a restaurant — it’s an experience. If you want phenomenal food that leaves you smiling, satisfied, and planning your next visit before you even walk out the door, this is your place.

I can’t recommend it enough. Absolutely amazing from start to finish!

Update: 6/25/26 I've told myself I must try Evelyn on the menu. Today I had the Salt and pepper lamb chops and the pineapple ribs. As always the food was superb. I can't get enough of this place.“

“Delicious dim sum and pan fried flounder!“

“YongChuan on the Lower East Side brings together the bold flavors of Ningbo and Sichuan in a beautiful, modern space. I really enjoyed how the dishes stayed true to their roots while adding a creative touch that made each one feel unique. You can tell a lot of care goes into every plate because the flavors are balanced and the ingredients really shine. The cocktails were also a pleasant surprise. They’re creative, well crafted, and definitely pack a punch. The service was attentive from start to finish, and the staff gave great recommendations that we ended up loving. If you’re looking for authentic Chinese food with a fresh, modern twist, I’d definitely recommend checking out YongChuan.“

“Food is excellent! Service is great.“

“Very good food and drinks 🍹“

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

“The food is consistently fresh and tasty. So happy to have an excellent Szechwan restaurant in a neighborhood where good Chinese cuisine is sorely lacking.“

“Din Tai Fung is one of those places where you know what you are going to order before you go. I expected the chocolate bao to be too sweet but it was really one of those bites where you’d just shocked how they got the taste palate right. While the price is a little steep for just 6 boa, I will still recommend it. Crab and Pork Bao was also a wow. It’s great to see real ginger and people making the boa right in front of you to know that you’re really eating fresh food. The flavors on that were very nice so much so that we got a second bao. Overall 8.7/10 because of price concerns but otherwise it is very flavorful food.“

“This place has the best, most authentic wontons I've ever had outside of Shanghai. Both the small and large wontons are delicious. Every time I go I get the large wontons to eat and a frozen pack to go. They have a delicious lion's head meatball too. I'd go daily if I lived nearby.“

“Me and my friends ate dinner here. The food was perfect for warming up with the unnaturally cold Spring day! We got the duck with ginger, mapo tofu, and fried rice. Like the other posts, the price is a little bit on the higher end. However, the atmosphere of the restaurant was nice, the staffs were very polite and attentive, and there was almost no wait time. Will definitely come back if we are near the area again.“

“Oh what a cool menu! We mainly looked at the box sets. They have two options on box sets for “sides”. Option A has broc, crispy mushrooms on cauliflower, rice and sweet potato fries. For 75 cents more, Option B swaps out those fries for 2 soy nuggets and a mini mushroom skewer. Hands down pay the 75 cents and get Option B!

We got the crispy tofu box and the drunken seitan box. Also an order of avocado summer rolls and loaded fries (crinkle cut, veggie bacon, minced bell peppers, garlic and onion).

The crispy tofu was good- large chunks of tofu- crispy outside with soft inside and a slightly sweet dipping sauce. The drunken seitan was a homerun! Crispy chunks of seitan lightly tossed in a flavorful sauce that had us wanting more.

The fries were cooked perfectly and the flavors of the minced toppings allowed for a nice pop as we chowed down. The avocado rolls were gigantic and the dipping sauce that came with these was so good we dipped everything in it.

Now these sides- broc was steamed with a nice sesame oil kick, the skewers would easily fool you- they didnt look like mushrooms and the cumin seasoning was a nice touch. The crispy mushrooms could star on their own by the plate full. Our rice was purple and had a nice nutty flavor- would prefer white rice and may ask for that next time.

Lovely staff and food comes out fairly quickly. Loved the box concept as we got a nice variety of things to try!

We cant wait to go back as this is now near the top of some of our favorite vegetarian spots in the city.“

“The boroughs aren’t for the faint of heart brothers! Leave it to the pros. There are many other cities to go to in New Jersey that are more rookie friendly. You don’t have to collect every dollar there is. Also, Tell your dispatch not to send you where you don’t wanna be. Not all money, is good money!“

“The dumplings are as good here as China Town. Bring 3-4 people and eat them all! I say at the bar and had Soup Dumplings, Shumai and Steamed Rice Roll with BBQ Pork… it’s like a Pork Bun without the Calories! Afternoon Happy Hour large Saki 1/2 price!!! If you’re in Gramacy, you don’t need to take the trip to China Town for excellent Dim Sum. Additionally, they have a Japanese Hibachi Table upstairs.“

“They do traditional Chinese food and Western Chinese food, and they do all of it really well. We are fans of the general tso chicken, mapo tofu, whole steamed fish, dry pot pork and cabbage, beef lo mein noodles and fried rice. The meat they serve with the noodles were plenty for a single serving. Love a good Asian restaurant that serves hot tea on the house too. I’d come back for the steamed fish too instead of trekking to flushing for it. Ambiance is subtle with a few statues and huge waterfall. We did a lot of deliveries there and decided to dine in and it seems like a quaint place for dinner with wood decor and a huge tree too. Service is so friendly. The pig steamed bun were very good too, not too sweet, the way we like it. Highly recommend for a nice affordable Chinese cuisine.“

“This shop has gradually grown in size. The cakes here are really delicious. I have been here several times and bought more than 30 dollars of desserts every time. Now they also add milk tea, which is really delicious. There are also meals Yes, but I haven’t tried it. I will try it again when I have time.“

“I LOVE all of the vegan options here, this is one of my go-to places. I also ask for certain customisations and they're always accommodating. Definitely recommending to friends! My favorites are the baby bok choy, broccoli, and rice cake dish.“

“Absolutely love Pig Heaven, have been coming here for many years and it always hits. I’d definitely recommend for dinner with family, date night, or fun night out with friends. Get the soup dumplings, ribs, Brussels sprouts, and Mapp tofu!“

“Awesome scallion pancakes, hot and sour soup, and chicken fried rice. We eat here as soon as we land from Saint Louis each time we visit NYC. Staff is extremely attentive and always on top of anything you need.“

“This is a place I visit occasionally because it's very close to home.
Overall, the portion sizes and food quality are excellent for the price. The meals are satisfying, and I feel it offers great value compared to many other options in the area.
It's a convenient and reliable spot that I’m happy to return to from time to time.“

“I went here with my brother. I loved it. Tea, dumplings, dessert (a sweet rice soup (soup?)). It was all good. I didn’t get any duck. I’ll have to come back for that. Very reasonably priced.“

“Authentic Cantonese cuisine. I was brought up in Guangzhou and these dishes here are the same delicious as the ones I had back in Guangzhou.“
