“Lovely place for lunch & dinner Excellent customer service“

“very authentic Chinese restaurant. like the decor. service is 👍“

“One of the best Palestinian food around 10 stars“

“I was a little under the weather today, decided to look online for a place I can get some great soup. I came across this place, took a walk down. I made the right choice, I was greeted by the owner i believe. I had the lentil soup. By far on my top 5 best soups I ever had. So tasteful, had some added veggies along with some bread to dip inside. Soo good! I will for sure be a returning customer. Thank you so so much !!!!!!!“

“Perfect soup dumplings, other dishes tasty as well, great service! Highly recommend.“

“Delicious food.Best service.Thank you.“

“My daughter chose this for a birthday dinner. The food was absolutely amazing and the service was fantastic. Audrey was our server. She was extremely knowledgeable of the menu, made great recommendations, she was there when we needed her without being there too often. I would highly recommend Rosella Sushi. Can’t wait to get back to New York City and return for a meal here. It also makes it extra cool when Chef Jeff is wearing a Florida Gator hat!“

“Love the food and service Great place to go back again!!!!!“

“Good People - Great Food - just Go! Food so Fresh!“

“I've been to a few ichiran locations and have always been satisfied. Is it the best ramen in the city? Maybe not, but it's a really solid and well balanced bowl that you get to eat in a relatively unique solo booth experience. I love the little booths, it's very relaxing for me to eat in my own little cubby. I will say though, the lines can get long.

As for the actual ramen, last time I went with the classic tonkotsu with all the recommended settings. It didn’t come with an egg by default, which id probably add next time, but otherwise I was happy with it. The broth is the real star of the show - it really exemplifies a classic tonkotsu with the perfect amount of unctuous, creamy mouthfeel and savory, rich flavors. They also give a lot more chashu than I would expect, which is nice. The chashu was super tender, although mildly flavored. The recommended firmness for the noodles was medium, but next time I would definitely go for firm because they were too soft for my liking.

All in all an awesome bowl or ramen with a unique eating experience. Worth checking out for sure!“

“Went after Christmas for dinner. Fresh and delicious sushi and appetizers. If you like green tea must have the green tea ice cream for dessert. Cocktails were well crafted and servers, host offered impeccable and attentive service. Highly recommended.“

“Great food with native Yemeni ambience and flavors.“

“I'll try to keep this to the point —

I gave Food/Service/Atmosphere 5 🌟 because they were on par for me. For a local spot, this really took me by surprise.

What I ordered:

Miso Soup:
Standard Miso Soup, nothing groundbreaking, but very tasty. Would have loved a tad more tofu & scallion, but that's just me.

Salmon Avocado Hand roll:
Not the hand roll I expected meaning it wasn't in the cone shape I'm familiar with, but it came presented like a taco with the seaweed as the shell. Salmon cuts were huge, and with great colour, avocado was bright & ripe, coupled with the perfect amount of rice. Everything tasted clean, and fresh.

Yellowtail Jalapeno Nigiri:
I messed up with this, originally I wanted a sushi roll, but my brain flubbed. Great mistake though, because the yellowtail was delicious, practically melted in my mouth, topped with a delicate cut of jalapeno on top.

Love Milk Tea:
Honestly, just a really delicious milk tea topped with osmanthus flower. It was light, refreshing, and not too sweet thankfully.

Wagyu Tataki:
Tataki is meant to be briefly seared on the outside, but the center remains raw. Was this seared to the degree I wanted? No. But, was it delicious? Yes. And the meat was incredibly tender, flavour of the sauces really complimented everything on the plate.

I finished off with a matcha cheesecake to go, I'm sure it'll be good.

With tip, I spent $67

Again, for a local spot in Richmond Hill/Kew Gardens, I was thoroughly impressed and satisfied. Personally, with slight adjustments, these folks would do great in midtown. I spent a little under what I would spend at a restaurant in the city, and got an incredibly satisfying meal, and left full.“

“The waiters in white coats are busy behind the counter, the menu has not changed for decades, and even the lighting seems to have remained in the last century - this is the old New York I want.“

“I just came in to escape the cold through a nice bowl of soup and ended having a really nice bowl of soup and great conversation. Lots of different choices, and loved the jambalaya. Thanks !“

“The food was excellent - the crispy duck tasted very crispy with the sauce, and the chive pancake tasted better than any other pancake. The service was very fast when delivering the dishes, delivering them all within 10 minutes of placing an order. Lastly, the atmosphere was very pleasant, the waitresses were very friendly and responsive. Overall a great experience and would like to go there again!“

“So happy to have Mikado in the neighborhood!
Came for lunch over the weekend and had such a great experience. The hand roll set and the Super Bowl are a must. The portions were generous and the fish was incredibly fresh. Everything tasted amazing.
The decor is beautiful, the space feels clean and inviting, and the service was immaculate from start to finish.
Will definitely be ordering again and dining in soon. Highly recommend!“

“This is such a lovely spot. I first tried this spot many years ago. There used to be a Polish restaurant one block south of here, Neptune. We would go there and then come to brodo and grab a broth to go, often for my dad in the VA hospital up on 23 St. few places would sell you just broth.

I absolutely love the Hearth broth and you can add the ginger turmeric, which I highly recommend. I also ordered and tried the beef broth with ginger and turmeric, it was fine. Oddly enough, the hearth had a richer, beefier flavor than the beef did. It’s just a heartier flavor, I highly recommend it. I could easily pop over to enjoy a cup of broth in place of my daily coffee, it’s a similarly comfortable cup that travels well.“

“I do love to eat oysters in there. Great service & best food.“

“I was there at Jian Nan Syosset, Long Island. Everything went great!! But, those took the orders needed to be more educated to understand each dishes. We were a fairly larger group than standard party size. Some dished were small and some dim sum served with small quantities, like 3 or 4. Those who order for the large group, should give suggestion to order multiple orders for the same dish. So, each one in the group can have at least one.“

“Place is small, and also they have shareable tables just fyi, that threw us off, staff is super friendly and kind. We order some ramens and gyoza which was super flavorful, all their ramens were good, I forgot to take a picture of my husbands but his was spicy and had pork like chicharron (crispy pork) on top, which was to die for, my son didn’t like his beef miso ramen because the meat was minced and also had a sweet flavor so I switched it with mine and then he was happy, my miso pork ramen was delicious, savory and had a little quick since they decorate with what looked like chili oil, delicious but a little spicy. I was super happy with this place, glad we found it and would definitely try it again. Yum“

“Fresh and delicious. We loved the starters and the Beef main. Fun place.“

“Delicious and nourishing!
Hale and Hearty Soups never disappoint — every bowl tastes homemade, fresh, and full of flavor. You can really tell they care about quality ingredients and healthy recipes. Perfect for lunch or dinner, especially on a chilly day! Highly recommend!“

“Good Ramen 🍜 and environment“

“Chris was our waiter today. We came in with my wife’s 100 year old grandfather and 99 year old Grandmother on her birthday. They are from Shanghai. Chris immediately knew to bring kids waters, 2 hot waters for the grandparents and 2 regular waters for myself and my wife. Service was fast and accurate. The food soup base was perfect and the food was very fresh with great portions. The ice cream for grandma’s 99th birthday was a great touch. We look forward to coming back again.“

“I have had a bowl that they make i let them pick the ingredients,
And i tried this twice once i ate the bowl I wasn’t hungry until next day the food is very nutritious
The use high quality ingredients no seed oils
Very healthy food highly recommend“

“Chef Papa is an authentic Vietnamese spot and I loved the food here. The beef pho had a rich, flavorful broth, the fried chicken was crispy and juicy, and the spring rolls were fresh and delicious. The beef sandwich was amazing and definitely a highlight. Everything tasted authentic and well made. Highly recommend if you’re craving real Vietnamese food!“

“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.“

“Forgot to take photos of the food but everything was so good. Steamed Pork Dumplings were massive, soft, and delish. Chicken Soup Dumplings had a really rich broth. Beef Lo Mein was flavorful and cooked well. Sesame Chicken was super crispy and the sauce was incredible but not spicy as it shouldve been. Chicken Fried Rice was standard but good.

The free jasmine tea was a nice touch and great throughout the meal!“

“Our server timed every dish perfectly and explained each one very carefully. She was lovely. The sushi was amazing...we all swooned and cannot wait to return. The only disappointment,for two of us out of five, was the hand roll . It was very quiet, and a very lovely room. It is a resent to be missed!“

“Chola is easily the best Indian restaurant in all of Manhattan and Northern Jersey. My wife and I drive in bi-weekly for their awesome food and ever changing menu. The staff is incredible and friendly, we've gotten to know them all and consider them personal friends at this point. Any time we can, we take friends and family to Chola. It's is the best!“

“This place was on my bucket list and the wait on Monday night wasn’t too bad. We waited for 20 minutes and got seated right away. The food was comforting and the dweji gomtang lives up to its reputation. I would say it was not as good as I expected it to be but it was still very delicious.“

“Incredible perfect place for vegan breakfast, lunch, or smoothies and drinks. Authentic Jamaican cuisine mixed with a selection of modern vegan treats. Owners are super laid back and friendly - and will put every ounce of love and respect into making food to nourish your soul. Highly recommended -- thank you for this place!“

“Delicious soups and reasonably priced!“

“I love this place very much. I have to write a review because this place is very special to me now and I have to express my gratitude. I've been coming here with my father for some time now, and today we had the super delicious crepe, calamari, and pho, SO DELICIOUS and after finishing the meal with my father, he said that it has been a while since he ate so deliciously. Because of things that have happened to our family in recent years, meals that feel warm don't come as often anymore. So him saying that today filled me with relief. We always leave Sao Mai smiling because we eat so much and laugh about how full we are. In this restaurant, I get to have a meal with my father that feels so welcome, and provides me with a comfort of being in the moment with him.

Every single meal we have here is met with the utmost care, not just because we are customers, but because we can tell that they really do care. I truly truly truly cannot recommend this place enough. The pho is so hearty, their apps are unmatched, and seriously a gem. Also their Vietnamese iced coffee? OOOOOOOOO it is so good. It is strong AS IT SHOULD BE and just refreshes me everytime. SAO MAI MY DAD AND I LOVE YOU!“

“Loved everything ordered here! The Pad Krapow Pork was super flavorful with just the right amount of spice, and the Thai Tea Pad Thai was such a fun twist — rich, slightly sweet, and perfectly balanced. The Leaf Pudding was light, fragrant, and a really unique way to end the meal. Cozy vibe and great Thai comfort food.“

“Wow so so good. I wish I took a photo. I got the stir fry noodles but am excited to try more. Way better than a lot of other noodle options near by. I love the relaxed, hands off approach Asian restaurants have unlike that review from Jeff below.“

“Outstanding as usual. When my husband and I are in New York we try to pass by; the meat was remarkable: juicy, savoury and well cooked. Also the ambience was great, the waiters competent, thank you Mike, and willing to help in the choice! Highly recommended.“

“This place stands the test of time with its reliable quality. Staff offers a friendly welcome to all visitors. The menu balances delicious options, fresh ingredients, and attractive presentation. Despite size constraints, this place stays busy. You should try their complete selection.“

“Very good well done food.“

“My first time trying coconut hot pot and I’ve clearly been missing out! The coconut broth was light and sweet, and way easier on the stomach than a regular hot pot.

We visited on one of the coldest days, and the restaurant was PACKED. It’s located in Downtown Flushing, literally right next to Tangram. It’s also more affordable than other coconut hot pot spots in the city, with a heartier portion too.

Shoutout to the impeccable service — our server even helped skim off the floating oil from the broth (and made me want to buy that ladle lol).

＊Coconut Chicken (for two) 皇椰雞套餐 $75.95
They use cage-free chicken, and the pieces were generously sized with not too much bone. This portion was already enough to feed four. The set also comes with vegetables, plus your choice of rice or noodles. The coconut broth wasn’t heavy at all that we were basically sipping it nonstop.

＊Poached Egg & Beef Clay Pot Rice 窩蛋牛肉煲仔飯 +$15
You get a discounted price if you add their claypot rice to your hot pot order. It looked very promising and delicious, especially with the runny poached egg. But I thought the rice needed a few more minutes in the clay pot to crisp up the base a bit more.

＊Maxi’s Noodle Wonton 雲吞妹雲吞 $9.95
The price is pretty steep for just three wontons, but I love Maxi’s so much that I still went for it. The shrimp wontons were so plump and meaty.

＊Handmade Battered Shrimp 極品鮮蝦滑 $12.95
SOOOO GOOD I am a fan of shrimp paste in a hot pot.“

“Such a wonderful experience! It’s our first time in New York and this bar was a short walk from our hotel. We came here on our first night and loved it so much that we ended up coming every night we were in town. Definitely a must visit! Try the french onion soup!“

“Great food, nice services, good amenities.“

“I promise I’m not glazing, this place is THAT GOOD.

The ambience outside is like a garden allowing indoor and outdoor seating. As soon as we walked in I couldn’t stop looking around because it smells REALLY nice, they have light essential oils that make you feel cozy and relaxed.
The seats look and are very comfortable. Flowers on the table and cute soy sauce containers. They also have air-con so summer heat won’t be an issue while dining here.
You’re greeted upon entering, and the waiters are very attentive and friendly.
The food came out quickly, was fresh, and tasty.

It has high reviews for a reason, I highly recommend this business.“

“Wonderful owners make amazing Thai food. I have been to many in the area. This was hands down the best.“

“Amazing lobster snd crab rolls! So authentic….Makes you think you can smell the sea air!“

“The delivery people don't carry change

Food was very good
The employees always have a smile very very good service

I ordered it twice in one day the first time it was good the second time it wasn't good“

“I love this place! It is a tiny shop, so I usually get take-out (but they do have tables, and I have eaten inside, and it is nice). Something about the food feels comforting to me. I have been getting it about once a week for the last few months. With the colder weather, it is perfect for it. I like their beef dishes, and I look forward to ordering each week. It is a great little pick-me-up. I highly recommend!!“
