Cantonese Restaurants in New York, NY

“Great oyster mushroom and rice rolls“

“Great dinner, great setting, excellent service 👌“

“I came here with a foodie friend for dinner. We both really enjoyed the food, the service was excellent and friendly. The atmosphere of the restaurant definitely took me back to Hong Kong - like I was in a new concept restaurant in the famous area of LKF.

Highlights / Our favorite dishes:
- Black Pepper Steak: the sauce was delicious and it came with broccoli rabe, which is a surprising and enjoyable twist (instead of Chinese broccoli). Love that.
- Crunchy Vegetable Fried rice: yes it stayed crispy and crunchy throughout our entire meal and with all our talking. The fried rice was flavorful and not oily. This is the best vegetarian fried rice I've had in NYC.
- H French Toast: This was a perfect dessert ending to our meal. Good for sharing. It is slightly different from traditional Hong Kong french toast which is completely deep fried. This one from Cha Cha Tang is fried crispy on the outside, therefore not as heavy (thankfully since we ate so much for dinner). And I love the ube cream inside!!

Highly recommend!!“

“If you need to read reviews to decide to go to Congee Village, the order is wrong.. your family or friends should have brought you there before. No one visits Congee Village alone. It's just not the kind of place you go along. The food is tasty no doubt, and is so good you want to share with others, especially those you love and laugh together.“

“Great food great service. Nice price“

“Chicken, duck, pork, rice and cabbage—oh my. Super tasty. Out does everyone in the zip code. No exaggeration.“

“Perfect place for a top notch meal! Wonderful service too! Our waiter was very informative and taught us about the various items on the menu we had questions about. Highlights were duck, Peking style, mushroom dumplings, shrimp rice noodle rolls, and the rabbit coconut pudding. Note: no rabbits were harmed in the making of the dessert!“

“We found a new Chinatown favorite here… highly recommend! ❤️“

“Had dinner there tonight celebrating my mom’s birthday, good food attentive service“

“Got the brand sampler. A meal for $19.60.
Here’s what I thought of each item
Har gow / shrimp siu mai - 3/5, hard to get wrong, just didn’t love it, even with the soy sauce.
Chicken siu mai - 5/5, was my favorite
Sticky rice wrap - 1/5, mushroom and sticky rice was not my favorite
BBQ pork bun - 1/5, wasn’t my thing
Crispy shrimp roll - 4/5, pretty good“

“Super fresh food and top quality service. Thank you.“

“The flavor of this restaurant is actually not that far from what I had in China, and it's fairly authentic.“

“Considering all the Chinese restaurant restaurants in Manhattan's Chinatown, Yin Ji Chang Fen certainly must rank among the best.“

“Food and service is amazing!“

“Went there with a group of 6 that included 2 toddlers and newborn. Table was more than spacious enough for us.
Food was fantastic. Duck bao was flavorful. Mushroom yee mein was also flavorful and a fantastic chewy bounce. The Walnut shrimp was seasoned differently than I’ve had at other locations, making it unique. Shrimp were massive. Beers were refreshing. Will be returning soon!

Kid-friendliness: Table was big enough to fit our children, stroller and 3 adults. More than enough space. It was also during the week. The restaurant was not overwhelmingly busy.“

“We come here often for special occasions with both family and friends, usually for dinner and or banquets. One of the few remaining "tea houses" in NYC Chinatown offering the usual traditional dim sum. Hectic and noisy but if you want the real dim sum experience, you get it here. Ladies still push the carts with the delicious "touch your heart" (dim sum) snacks.“

“CASH ONLY.
For the price, this is an excellent rice roll that is SUPER QUICK. No more waiting 40 minutes at any other location. The ladies working here will get your order in 3-5 minutes flat.
I highly recommend the egg rice roll and add scallions. They also keep sauces outside that are all delicious: hoisin, peanut sauce, soy sauce, and sriracha. I personally just added all 4 and it was delicious.

This is really great for the price and might now be my go to spot when I need this.“

“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! “

“The food is delicious and great customer service. Will come again?“

“An upscale Cantonese restaurant that delivers on both flavor and presentation, though with prices to match. The interior is sleek and modern, a perfect spot for special occasions. We were super impressed by the flavor of every dish: the salt-baked chicken was incredibly tender and flavorful, the hot stone mushroom rice had rich umami notes and a delightful crispiness, and the scallion oil steamed fish was simple yet well executed with mostly deboned filets, the snow pea tips was hearty with chanterelle mushrooms added on top, and the braised abalone and pork was rich and decadent.

Every dish hit the mark, and the service was attentive and thoughtful throughout the meal. Overall, it’s a great spot for splurging on a special occasion or for a premium Cantonese dining experience.“

“Awesome Chinese food and very authentic Chinese cuisine. Great for dim sum and also for dinner. It is a neighborhood gem and one of my favorite restaurants in Chinatown.“

“5 stars for the service they were very accommodating. 4 and half stars for the food. I had the club sandwich i wish it had a little more bacon but still good. We also had stirfried ramen noodles for the kids and they enjoyed it. I will come back again to try their rice dishes or casseroles.“

“Superb food and presentation.. pleasantly surprised to find this level service and food in Manhattan’s original Chinatown! Felt like HongKong❣️“

“The flavor of this restaurant is actually not that far from what I had in China, and it's fairly authentic.“

“Good authentic Cantonese food. It's really nice to have a place like this in Chinatown. Need to clean up their bathroom a little more, not having paper towels is NOT okay.“

“Definitely one of the best roasted meat in I ate. Their beef with noodles are amazing. A must try if your in Chinatown NY.“

“Awesome food, and staff was great“

“The food…is just terrific. There is Dim Sum and then there is this next level version of Dim Sum. Everything is good and most of it great! The Pork Buns are a MUST try!“

“My boyfriend and I ate here after the Lunar New Year Parade. They were packed yet accommodating. This was our first time and the food was delicious. I got the beef pan fried noodles and he got the roast pork over rice. We were both glad with the meal and happy we checked out this place.“

“After 40 years of going.. food and the servers are still the best! Love going!“

“Good food at a decent price in a well-lit restaurant. Very happy with my meal.“

“I can say that is alternative to Golden Unicorn, just down the same street end of the block. Food is really good and could be better, and service is at best in a very busy place. The Price is very reasonable and overall it’s good x2. Will come again with pics to prove.“

“Very good food helpful and very good service“

“The flavor of this restaurant is actually not that far from what I had in China, and it's fairly authentic.“

“I can see why this dim sum spot is so popular. The food is incredibly flavorful, with a great variety of dishes that truly stand out. The quality is definitely noticeable, and you can taste the care and attention to detail in every bite. That said, the price is definitely on the higher side compared to other dim sum places in the city. But, given that it has a Michelin star, I guess you’re paying for that elevated experience. Still, it’s worth trying if you’re in the mood for something special! Just be prepared to pay a bit more.“

“The shrimp, crab and spinach dumplings ($8.50) and the beancurd pork rolls ($9.00) were both excellent. The sautéed string beans ($11.95) was average. I personally prefer their Chinatown location (in terms of ambience and menu selection) but this one is pretty decent if you don’t want to trek down to Centre Street.“

““Wow, finally some real Cantonese food in Manhattan! As a Chinese person, I have to say, it’s rare to find a place that feels so much like home. The fried vegetables were incredibly fresh and cooked just right. If you love authentic Chinese flavors, you’ll want to try this place out!” The dessert also delicious!!!!!“

“Our favorite restaurant in UWS. The service is great. We 💗 the food with a friendly ambiance. The restaurant is clean and goes above and beyond to ensure a memorable dining experience.“

“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.“

“Ty absolutely delicious !“

“Several booths inside from Cantonese to Korean. Fresh rice paste and many more delicious dishes.“

“You cannot come here and expect Michelin style service. This is a old school local restaurant in Chinatown and is a good spot for a quick lunch or affordable dinner. I am a millennial but I frequent this restaurant because it is important to me to keep these local restaurants open for the benefit of the community. Their lunch specials are $8.50 everyday and there is a huge selection of dishes you can choose from. You can get walnut shrimp for dinner for around $20 whereas every other restaurant in the neighborhood charges $30 now.“

“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.“

“LOVE LOVE LOVE OLLIE’s !! The food is always consistently great!! #LoveChineseFood Super friendly staff!!!“
