Chef Yu Reviews
The best Chinese food I’ve ever had
This is my go to place every time we go to MSG. The food is always on point, service and atmosphere is great, and the price is very reasonable for NYC.
The food was delicious and the price was perfect. The waiters were very attentive.

Chef Yu offers a variety of fresh and flavorful dishes in a cozy setting with a pleasant ambiance. The shrimp wonton soup with ramen noodles is a standout, with freshly made wontons and noodles in a light and flavorful broth. Other favorites include the beef noodle soup, dumplings with peanut sauce, and the Peking duck. The beef with bamboo shoots and shitake mushrooms is a delightful and tasty surprise. While some dishes may require extra utensils, the quality of the food is top-notch with decent sized portions and a good price point. The service is efficient and friendly, making it a great spot for a solo lunch or a group meal. Located in a quieter street, Chef Yu is a hidden gem worth visiting.
