The quality here puts it in the top tier locally. Each dish demonstrates flavor mastery. The food tastes good, prices don't hurt and service really shines. A courteous worker greeted us at the door. The experience improves when you come with friends.

Been coming here since 2018 and I always have the best food and cultural experience here. There are many Cantonese restaurants in Chinatown, many of them are tourist oriented, and some are too noisy for me. This place is not only authentic but with great service. I highly recommend. Yum, Yum…. Happy belly, big smile and happy vibes.
The food here was okay. I tend to get somewhat basic things at dim sum (Various kinds of dumplings, Shumai, pan fried noodles). In my opinion there are better places in Chinatown to try those kinds of things. The food was just okay, on average. The flavor was lacking for most items.
While the service was good, little things made the experience not quite as good. For example, the bottom of the tea pot was dirty, leaving marks on our table cloth. Additionally, if you’re paying cash, you need to tell the person who checks you out that you want the ten percent discount, as they won’t add that discount automatically, despite saying it on the check. Not a huge deal, but worth pointing out.

We happened to walk-in for dinner at just the right time, we were escorted to a nice table near the front (Ping’s is narrow and long and can hold a lot of diners.) Five minutes later, the entire restaurant was packed! What we observed - multi-generations in small groups really enjoying a nice dinner in a warm and welcoming atmosphere. We had a hard time deciding from their menu (everything looked so good) but settled on the tofu with shrimp appetizer, stir fry manila clams in a black bean sauce, and whole lobster braised with soft noodles & veggie (we decided on the lobster over the soft shell crab after seeing the dish go by for a table near us.)
The lobster 🦞 was delicious! And the noodles!!! They seemed very fresh, maybe house made?, soooo delicious, and li handmade fresh Italian pasta we haven’t really experienced in NYC Chinese cuisine. We ate every bit of the lobster and savored the noodles too. The clams were fresh, very tasty, arrived beautifully displayed and the tofu!!! crispy outside and silk soft on the inside and hot! tofu so silky, we had a hard time grasping with our chopsticks 🥢
We loved every bite of dinner and all of the ambience around and seeing the dim sum served around us! The only aspect of Pings that we didn’t love were the wine menu prices. We have enjoyed several selections on their list at various price points - like the Kim Crawford Sauvignon Blanc - retails for $12-15 and at restaurants for $25-35. Pings price was $48 and if we brought our own bottle there was a corkage fee (not all Chinatown restaurants charge a corkage fee although many other NYC restaurants do.) We know wine is marked up but knowing that particular wine price point allowed us to know their mark up which left us feeling like we didn’t want a $12 wine but paying $50 with our dinner… This isn’t really a dealbreaker for us - we loved our dinner and would definitely go back - but we didn’t have wine with dinner and we have had good food nearby with similar wine at better prices.
If you want a nice Chinatown dinner, with high quality food and service - Pings is a great place for dinner ❤️ without wine.
It's actually very nice!! I'm surprised it took me so long to find it. Food was very good, the waiter who was helping us was friendly and helpful too.
